This plugin lets authors easily display the current status of the novel, story or article they&#8217;re working on, allowing fans to follow along and track the progress of their favorite author&#8217;s ongoing project(s) &#8211; something every fan of \u201cA Song of Ice And Fire\u201d would know how to appreciate. It offers a particularly author-friendly horizontal progress bar that even lets you <strong>display the progress in terms of pages and word count<\/strong>, but there\u2019s nothing stopping you from employing it in other ways. It also comes with some neat styling and animation options which will let you customize it to fit the design of your website.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;68px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"qodef-h4\">In Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]As you can see, there is no shortage of progress bars for WordPress you can choose from. But which one is the right one for your website? Of course, we have a horse in this race &#8211; the three great progress bar widgets provided by Qi Addons for Elementor. However, it would be unfair to say that there is no reason for picking one of the others. If you are not using Elementor, maybe you can find what you like with Ultimate Blocks. If a reading position indicator is what you\u2018re after, try Read Meter, Worth The Read, or Reading Position Indicator. If you are looking for a progress bar for your writing project, go with Author WIP progress bar. And if you want to notify your visitor of your page load time, try Page Loader.
