Simple Floating Menu adds a floating sticky bar of icon buttons to your site, with tooltips, in the position and shape you choose.

== Description ==

Simple Floating Menu is a free WordPress plugin that puts a floating sticky menu of icon buttons on your site. Each button gets an icon, a link and a tooltip, and the whole bar can sit anywhere on the screen.

It ships 5 icon packs with more than 12,000 icons between them, and you can add as many buttons as you like. Place the bar in any of 8 positions, run it down the side of the screen or across it, pick from 9 button shapes, and set the tooltip type from over 1,400 Google fonts.

Everything is set from one screen with a live preview beside it, so you can see the bar change as you work.
