Dynamic Header & Navigation for Block Themes (Previous name of the plugin: Shrinking Logo Sticky Header) is a lightweight WordPress plugin developed specifically as a navigation solution for most Block Themes.
It adds a modern sticky header with smooth, animated shrinking effects for both the header and the site logo.
As users scroll down the page, the header and logo automatically reduce in size, maximizing on-screen space and keeping navigation easily accessible without disrupting the browsing experience.
The plugin allows you to individually configure the heights for the header and logo in both their normal and shrunken states, giving you full control over your site’s appearance.
These settings can be easily adjusted to match your branding or design preferences.
One of the key advantages of Dynamic Header & Navigation for Block Themes is its simplicity:
After activation, the sticky and shrinking effects work in principle immediately – no additional setup or configuration is required.
This makes it ideal for users who want a professional, dynamic header effect without dealing with complex options or custom code.

-
Is it possible to use this plugin also for classical Themes (e. g. Astra, OceanWP, GeneratePress)?
-
Classic themes sometimes offer such an option, but possibly only in a paid version. This plugin can only be used with block themes.
-
Is it possible to use this plugin for all Block Themes?
-
Tested with Twenty Twenty-Three, Twenty Twenty-Four, Twenty Twenty-Five, Circles WP.
If the plugin does not work with your block theme, please write to the support forum. I will then see what I can do. -
Why is the sticky header transparent and how can I change this?
-
The template part for the header is initially transparent in many block themes.
For this reason, the background colour of the outer group block for the header must be changed to a colour such as white, for example.
If the header has a background colour, then the header ‘covers’ the content when scrolling. See also the screenshot. This is the recommended procedure.
If the recommended option described above does not work for you, you can also set the background colour for the header automatically via the settings. -
Can you show me examples that demonstrate these effects?
-
Yes, with pleasure:
