11,496 PointsSticky nav at small screen sizes
Everything works great in this stage of the tutorial with adding the 'Want us to work on your project? Email us?' until the browser window is scaled down to about 730px and it hugs to the right leaving a sizable space on the left and a slight amount on the bottom. I'm more knowledgable of what could be done in css, but I don't think this is a css issue, or could it? is this maybe a media queries issue of some sort or can something be done in the jquery?
Any feedback is appreciated, thanks

14,963 PointsIt's not perfect, I found the h5 to overlap the main nav plus some spacing either side of the global container. The gap can be adjusted in css but the h5 could be positioned in css but its more of a hack.

You can simply do .is-sticky .whatever-element{display:none} for media queries. For example for screens under 768px one can do
@media (max-width:768px){ .is-sticky .element-sticked{display:none}; }

7,542 PointsHey I have been experimenting with the plugin and have been able to get it to resize properly as we change the window width. Although I should note that I had been working on // Sticky Plugin v1.0.3 for jQuery //. So I recommend you copy the whole code since quite a bit of it has been changed. Hope this helps.

7,542 PointsI just noticed this now and wanted to let you know about a small issue I found.
Issue Note: If you resize the window fast you can notice that the sticky element will be off position by a few pixels. Will post an update if I can find an issue to this problem.
