 * Hi there,
 * stupid question (maybe I missed it), but when adding an element to the plugin
   like “#postend”
 * How does the plugin know when this element is scrolled into view? So the element
   needs to be somehow named according the plugin’s instruction in the source code,
   right? What are the name/code requirements here so the plugin can detect this?
 * Thanks a lot,
    Sebastian

 * Sorry for the delayed response.
 * An item named “#postend” is an HTML element with an ID of “postend.”
    Such as:`
   <div id="postend" class="footerthing">` This might be something in your theme,
   it could be created with a plugin, or it might be something you enter using the
   WordPress editor or Customizer.
 * To track that element, enter its CSS Selector (# for ID, . for class) in the 
   dashboard setting under Elements to Track.
 * The naming requirements are just those of [CSS selectors](http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.asp).
