Headers now stay put in every theme

Header Pill and Commerce Head could quietly stop sticking on some themes. They now pin to the top wherever they are installed.

If you turned on Stay visible and your header still scrolled away with the page, this was the reason, and it was not something you could have fixed in the settings.

A header that stays on screen is pinned to the top of the browser window. That pin only works if nothing wrapping the header claims the top of the window first. Themes wrap every section in their own containers, and some of them apply effects to those containers, usually for a scroll animation or a rendering speed-up. When a theme does that, the pin quietly re-points at the container instead of the window, and the header rides up out of view exactly as if sticky had never been switched on.

Nothing looked wrong from inside the theme editor. The setting was on, the header was correct, and it simply did not stick.

Both headers now check, the moment they first stick, whether the pin is actually holding. If something above them has taken it over, they release just that one thing on the nearest container responsible and stop there, so the rest of your theme is left alone. On a theme that was never affected, nothing changes at all.

Open Header Pill or Commerce Head in the app and click Update to latest. Your settings are kept.
