Select where buttons appear

Open Floaty → Display & Schedule. Choose desktop or mobile visibility and whether buttons appear on all pages, only listed pages or everywhere except listed pages.

Enter page IDs separated by commas. Use home for the front page or blog home; for example, home, 12, 45. The logged-in-only setting refers to WordPress visitors signed into this website, not visitors signed into Emaila Orbit.

Device visibility uses the plugin's responsive layout. Test the actual viewport sizes you support; it is not a separate device-identification service.

Choose hours

Set enabled days and their opening and closing times. These use WordPress Settings → General → Timezone. Check that timezone before interpreting a schedule.

The plugin has overnight time-window logic. Test a window crossing midnight on both sides of the boundary, especially when adjacent days have different settings; do not assume an untested schedule behaves as intended.

Account for caching

Page and schedule rules are evaluated when WordPress generates the page. Full-page caches can continue serving an earlier result. Clear relevant caches after changes and consider their lifetime when using time-dependent visibility.

Check an included and excluded page, signed-in and signed-out views, and times immediately before and after your configured opening and closing boundaries.
