Init Reading Position enhances the reading experience by remembering how far a visitor has read on a post.\
When they return, it automatically scrolls back to where they left off.
Perfect for:
- Long-form articles
- Tutorials or guides
- Web novels or manga
- Any content where readers often stop and come back later
This plugin is part of the
Init Plugin Suite — a collection of minimalist, fast, and developer-focused tools for WordPress.
