Can MR Freeze The Header Menu?

[Madhatter32]

Is it possible to freeze the header menus site wide so they stay visible when you scroll down? I usually just go to my notification bell when navigating the site but after I scroll down on a selected thread I have to scroll back up to get to back to the notification bell button again. I note that many other sites freeze the header menu which makes navigating to it much easier. Thank you for your consideration.

"Freezing" the nav menu is the default behavior in XenForo. MR took special steps to remove that functionality likely because they put a custom nav menu in place of the XF default.

Why can't they have both?

You can easily get back to the top of the page by clicking this button that appears when scrolling...

Dunno. I was just providing a little context.

Those icons would help ... but I do not have them unfortunately. Freezing the menu would still be one less click.

On a Mac, most browsers should support the key combination: cmd + up-arrow.
This should take you to the top of the current page.

If this feature is ever added, it should be a personal option.

By pressing certain key combinations, you can do things that normally need a mouse, trackpad, or other input device.

Cmd + up arrow is listed as one of the "Move insertion point" actions.

triptolemus mentioned the default Xenforo behavior does what you want. You can actually select the default theme in your preferences.

But the changes in appearance are big:

Hey @sman789 thanks. That's great. It's exactly the functionality I was asking about. It's not as pretty for sure, but at least I have access to the notification bell at all times.
