   additional documentation. Thank you

 * Hi [@aedmond1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aedmond1/),
 * Sorry for the late reply.
 * You are right, documentation should be better – I’ll be working on that in the
   next few days, will get back to you asap.
 * Meanwhile – generally, you should be able to add the button via the “Appearance
   > Widgets” menu in your admin dashboard. Our plugin adds the “Back Button” widget
   there. However, I’ve checked your page, and I’m not sure if you have any widget
   areas on your frontend? Could that be the problem? Or do you mean that button
   is visible on your frontend, but it’s not functioning as it should be?
 * P.S. You can also add our button with the `[alg_back_button]` shortcode.
 * P.P.S. Our [Pro version](https://wpfactory.com/item/back-button-widget-wordpress-plugin/)
   has options to add button to your menu(s), or as a floating button.
