Description
Get Nicescroll and a ScrollTop button! I really like InuYaksa’s Nicescroll JS plugin. I’m a fan. And I thought there may be others like me who would enjoy using his famous library with a simple interface. So I came up with this plugin. It is a wrapper for that popular library, which is developed and maintained by InuYaksa. You can visit his official Nicescroll homepage here. An overview of the default parameters can be found on Github at the bottom of the page. This plugin enables you to use the Nicescroll scrollbar on both the frontend and the backend. It is fully customizable — you can tweak and tune every single parameter Nicescroll has to offer! You can style it totally differently for both views. It’s all up to you!

Frequently Asked Questions
Most likely, this is because your theme (or another plugin?) already has the Nicescroll library on board. If that’s the case, I advise you to uninstall this plugin again to prevent compatibility issues. Of course, you can always ask your theme developer to implement a function to disable the built-in solution if you’d like to use this plugin and its options.
The capability required to customize settings is:
* nicescrollr_edit – The user can change settings related to this plugin.
Well, I provide some basic support on this plugin’s support page. I check that place once or twice a month, so you may have to be a bit patient.
