Overview
Too often it turns out very inconvenient to scroll WordPress admin page back and forth in the quest for the big blue button to save latest changes.
Simple jQuery script of this plugin duplicates Update / Publish / Save Changes / Save Draft / Preview Changes button for posts, pages, custom posts, taxonomies, user profiles, and settings to the top WordPress admin bar, so that it stays on site while you are scrolling your admin page. The plugin options allow to keep the scrollbar position after saving.
The plugin is well-integrated with the Advanced Custom Fields, and capable to leave open ACF field groups after saving your edits.

Great Plugin
by carnie23·5 years ago
Hi All,
Simple powerful plugin!
The productivity improvement this plugin provides is enormous! Seems like a small improvement but if you where to add the time saved I think you’d be very surprised.
While developing I publish often and having the page reload at the same spot I was working saves so much time. 😉
Before this plugin, each time publishing the page would reload at its default and lose the spot where I was working. I’d have to dive back down into the page scrolling down to the fields I was working on. Very annoying! Time consuming!
Honestly, this should be base WP functionality.
Thanks again for the plugin 😉
