README

A lightweight Statamic addon that adds a floating toolbar to the frontend for logged-in users. Gives editors quick access to edit the current entry or jump to the Control Panel without leaving the page.

Features

• Zero config — install and it works immediately
• Edit button — opens the current entry in the CP editor (shown when an edit_url is available)
• Control Panel button — links to the CP dashboard
• Collapsible — toggle open/closed with smooth animation
• Logged-in users only — hidden from public visitors
• No frontend dependencies — uses inline styles (no Tailwind required) and Alpine's built-in transitions (no plugins required)

Requirements

• Statamic 6+
• Alpine.js 3.x (included with Statamic by default)

Installation

composer require chrisvasey/simple-statamic-toolbar

That's it. The toolbar will automatically appear for logged-in users on the frontend.

Customisation

Publish the views to override the toolbar template:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=simple-statamic-toolbar-views

This copies the view to resources/views/vendor/simple-statamic-toolbar/ where you can modify it freely.

Testing

composer test
