<p>KU Sticky Video for YouTube is a lightweight WordPress plugin that automatically makes YouTube video players inside post content follow the scroll position, showing in the corner of the page when the original video scrolls out of view.</p>
<p>This plugin contains minified JavaScript for performance. The complete, unminified source code is publicly available on GitHub:<br />
https://github.com/karasunouta/ku-sticky-video-for-youtube</p>
<h3>Build Instructions</h3>
<p>To rebuild the minified assets, run the following commands in the plugin directory:<br />
1. <code>npm install</code> (to install build dependencies)<br />
2. <code>npm run build</code> (to compile the source files using <code>@wordpress/scripts</code>)</p>

<p>The „Floating Contact Button“ displayes an fixed contact button on the bottom right of the screen. It opens an modal with your favorite contact form plugin. Before you have to generate a contact form and after this copy the shortcode into the plugin settings form Floating Contact Button.</p>
<p>The plugin is real lightweight. The .css file is minimized to load as fast as can.</p>
