A Filament v5 plugin that displays a floating action bar at the bottom (or top) of the viewport when a form has unsaved changes — so users on long edit pages never have to scroll back up to save.

#Features

• Automatically appears when the form is dirty (has unsaved changes)
• Disappears after a successful save
• Detects changes from all input types, including multiselect fields
• Reverts to hidden state if the user undoes all changes
• Hides when a modal is open
• Respects the Filament sidebar — never overlaps it
• Supports dark mode
• Translatable (8 languages included)
• Per-page opt-out via a trait

#Requirements

• PHP 8.2+
• Filament 5.x

#Installation

Install via Composer:

composer require cocosmos/filament-sticky-save-bar

Register the plugin in your panel provider:

use Cocosmos\FilamentStickySaveBar\StickySaveBarPlugin;

public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        // ...
        ->plugin(StickySaveBarPlugin::make());
}

#Basic Usage

Once registered, the bar appears automatically on any page that contains a wire:submit form with unsaved changes.

#Configuration

All options are set fluently on the plugin instance.

#Label

Override the default "Unsaved changes" label:

StickySaveBarPlugin::make()
    ->label('You have unsaved changes')

#Position

Pin the bar to the top of the viewport instead of the bottom:

use Cocosmos\FilamentStickySaveBar\Enums\Position;

StickySaveBarPlugin::make()
    ->position(Position::Top)

#Show On

Control when the bar becomes visible:

use Cocosmos\FilamentStickySaveBar\Enums\ShowOn;

StickySaveBarPlugin::make()
    ->showOn(ShowOn::Always)

#Extra Buttons

#Cancel

A Cancel button that navigates back. Enabled by default.

StickySaveBarPlugin::make()
    ->withCancel()        // enable (default)
    ->withCancel(false)   // disable

#Save & Close

A Save & Close button that saves the form and then navigates back.

StickySaveBarPlugin::make()
    ->withSaveAndClose()        // enable
    ->withSaveAndClose(false)   // disable (default)

#Discard

A Discard changes button that reloads the page, reverting all unsaved edits.

StickySaveBarPlugin::make()
    ->withDiscard()        // enable
    ->withDiscard(false)   // disable (default)

#Enabled

Disable the plugin globally, or conditionally via a closure:

StickySaveBarPlugin::make()
    ->enabled(false)

// Or with a closure:
StickySaveBarPlugin::make()
    ->enabled(fn () => auth()->user()->isAdmin())

#Per-Page Opt-Out

To disable the bar on a specific page, add the HasStickySaveBarDisabled trait to the page class:

use Cocosmos\FilamentStickySaveBar\Concerns\HasStickySaveBarDisabled;

class EditInvoice extends EditRecord
{
    use HasStickySaveBarDisabled;

    // ...
}

#Translations

The plugin ships with translations for 8 languages: ar, de, en, es, fr, id, it, pt.

To publish and customise them:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=sticky-save-bar-translations

The published files will appear in lang/vendor/sticky-save-bar/{locale}/sticky-save-bar.php.
