Reviews
what people actually sayWPFront Scroll Top is a well-regarded, lightweight scroll-to-top plugin praised for its simplicity and ease of setup, though it carries a notable accessibility flaw in its use of a JS-injected div instead of semantic HTML, and at least one user reported a serious server load issue after an update.
What people like
- +Easy to install and configure with minimal effort×6
- +Does exactly what it advertises — adds a functional scroll-to-top button×5
- +Good range of customization options and a large icon library×3
- +Works reliably across themes and WordPress versions×2
Common complaints
- −Scroll button is keyboard inaccessible and fails WCAG accessibility standards — implemented as a JS-injected div with no ARIA label, no semantic HTML, and no keyboard focus support
- −A recent update caused a massive spike in server requests (tens of thousands), forcing at least one user to switch plugins
