 * Dear forums,
 * I would like to create a floating button with the maxbuttons plugins. I would
   like that this buttons is displayed in shortcode so I can easily change simply
   the url, maintaining the same button style and position. I think I am able to
   easily generate the shortcode but I am unable to create a button that actually
   floats. I have the doubt if by editing the green box ([https://imgur.com/a/HhIMW](https://imgur.com/a/HhIMW))
   I would be able to create something like the blue button ([https://imgur.com/a/6X4Mc](https://imgur.com/a/6X4Mc)).
   For me to create a floating button do i need t change the attributed in the “
   Container” characteristics?
 * Thanks you,

 * I’m guessing you want it to maintain the same position on the page and scroll
   down with the visitor ( the term for this is ‘fixed’ position ). This is not 
   possible directly from the plugin. You should check if your theme provides some
   support for this ( content / widget ) . Otherwise you’ll have to dig into custom
   CSS.
