Horizon - Menu Bar Plugin for WordPress

Horizon is a two-level menu bar plugin for WordPress, designed to add a little life to your site’s header or footer. It can be used to highlight certain posts or pages, house your social links, serve as a location to place e-mail and/or phone call buttons to, etc.

By default, Horizon does not interfere with your existing navigation and instead serves as an effective secondary menu. However, should you choose to make Horizon your primary menu, it is entirely possible to hide your existing menu(s) through the included settings. Horizon can also be shown on a specified resolution range only, meaning it can even serve as a mobile-only menu if you’d like.

All in all, with a massive amount of icons, numerous settings and customization options to choose from, Horizon’s uses are many.

UPDATE 3.0
PLEASE NOTE: Version 3.0 is a considerable rewrite and update of this plugin. Due to the name change, all settings now residing in the WordPress Customizer as well as notable changes in how the included Font Awesome 5 icon set functions, pre-3.0 customers will likely need to setup the plugin from scratch. We apologize for the inconvenience but unfortunately this was a necessary evil. To make this transition as smooth as possible, we fully updated the included documentation.
