Ultimate UX Toolkit: Advanced Scroll to Top, Progress Bar, and Smart Reading Time.

Uply is designed to solve one major problem: Reader Fatigue. Long articles can be overwhelming, but with the right visual cues, you can keep users engaged and navigating effortlessly. This plugin brings together three essential tools – Scroll to Top, Progress Bar, and Reading Time — all optimized for speed and SEO.

1. Advanced Scroll to Top Button

Make site navigation effortless. Say goodbye to boring navigation and give your users a stylish way to return to the top.

  • Standard Icon Library: Access a clean collection of Arrows, Chevrons, and Circles that fits any theme.
  • Flexible Positioning: Toggle between Left or Right alignment with adjustable bottom margins.
  • Custom SVG Icon Builder: Upload your own branding icons and fully customize background colors, borders, and hover effects.
  • Mobile Visibility Control: Keep your mobile interface clean by specifically enabling or disabling the button on mobile devices.
  • 58+ Premium Button Designs [PRO]: Upgrade to a massive library featuring Rocket icons, Paper planes, 3D animated buttons, and unique modern shapes.
  • 10+ Special Progress Buttons [PRO]: A high-end feature where a circular or square progress indicator is built directly around the button, filling up as the user scrolls.
  • Unique Styles & Fluid Animations [PRO]: Every Pro button comes with “Joss” (stunning) animations and designer-grade transitions that make your site stand out.

2. Dynamic Reading Progress Bar

A visual roadmap that encourages users to finish your articles. Give your readers a sense of accomplishment as they scroll.

  • Sleek Minimalist Styles: Solid, Segmented, or Rainbow bars that track progress in real-time.
  • Top Positioning: A standard, non-intrusive bar fixed to the top of the viewport.
  • Bottom Viewport Toggle: Choose to fix the progress bar to either the top or the bottom of the screen.
  • Precision Height & Thickness: Use a range slider to adjust the thickness of the bar to match your brand’s style perfectly.
  • Intelligent Sticky Offset: Smart “Space Above/Below” settings to prevent the bar from overlapping with your sticky headers or menus.
  • 30+ Premium Animation Styles [PRO]: Access 30+ stunning animations, including Neon Glow, Liquid Metal, Gradient Waves, and Glitch effects.
  • Advanced Unique Designs [PRO]: High-end, eye-catching designs that elevate your website’s aesthetic instantly.

3. Smart Reading Time Indicator

Transparency builds trust. Letting readers know the time commitment upfront significantly reduces bounce rates.

  • Precision WPM Algorithm: Automatically calculates reading time based on a customizable “Words Per Minute” logic.
  • Clean Text Layout: Displays a simple, automated “X min read” label before your content.
  • Dual-Positioning Display: Display the reading time Before Content, After Content, or in Both locations simultaneously.
  • Full Typography & Styling Suite: Total control over font size, colors, background padding, and margins—no coding required.
  • Custom Labels: Fully customize your Prefix (e.g., “Ready in:”) and Postfix (e.g., “minutes”) text.
  • 25+ Designer Layouts [PRO]: Access 25+ unique and advanced layouts featuring professional icons like Clocks, Books, Hourglasses, and Sand-timers.
  • Stunning Layout Animations [PRO]: Beautifully animated entry and hover effects for the reading time badge.

4. Intelligent Targeting & Performance

Uply is built for speed and control. It gives power users the tools they need without sacrificing performance.

  • Vanilla CSS Power: No heavy libraries (No jQuery UI or GSAP). All animations are built with optimized CSS for zero impact on Core Web Vitals.
  • Conditional Display Logic: Enable or disable features globally or for specific Post Types (e.g., show on Posts but hide on Pages).
  • Precise Page Exclusion: Use a built-in search interface to exclude specific Page IDs or posts where you don’t want the tools to appear.

Why Choose Uply?

Whether you use the feature-packed Free version or the designer-grade PRO version, Uply is engineered to improve your “Time on Site” and “Bounce Rate” — two of the most important metrics for SEO and user satisfaction.
