Use Cases and Who It Is For
This plugin is an essential tool for website owners, bloggers, and e-commerce merchants who rely on mobile traffic. If your site uses AMP, you know that standard JavaScript-based floating buttons often break validation or fail to render correctly. This plugin bridges that gap.
For local businesses, it is a game-changer for lead generation, allowing potential customers to initiate a phone call or get directions with a single tap. For e-commerce stores, it provides an unobtrusive way to highlight a “Buy Now” button or a promotional offer that follows the user throughout their browsing experience. Bloggers and content creators can use it to grow their mailing lists or encourage social sharing, ensuring that the primary goal of the page is never lost in a long-form article.
Setup and How It Works
Getting started with Floating Button for AMP is designed to be straightforward, allowing you to deploy your buttons in minutes without needing to touch a single line of code.
- Install and Activate: Upload the plugin to your WordPress dashboard via the Plugins menu and activate it.
- Configure the Button: Navigate to the plugin settings page. Here, you can select the action type (e.g., Phone, WhatsApp, URL) and input the corresponding destination link or phone number.
- Style Your Button: Use the built-in customizer to select your preferred icon, button color, and text label. You can preview these changes to ensure they align with your site’s branding.
- Set Display Logic: Choose the specific pages, posts, or archive types where you want the button to appear. You can also define the position on the screen, such as bottom-right or bottom-left.
- Save and Publish: Once configured, save your settings. The plugin will automatically inject the necessary AMP-compliant code into your pages, and your floating button will immediately appear to your mobile visitors.
