I have seen that a significant number of those utilizing toolbars, for example, Wibiya have needed to remove it because of interfering with the execution of a few scripts like Scriptaculous and Prototype, while others have decided to remove these scripts just to continue utilizing the toolbar.
All things considered, for those who want to have a custom toolbar that does not give them such issues and permit them to keep utilizing different scripts, here how to make our own floating toolbar with a close option.
Adding a custom Sticky Toolbar on Blogger
Step # 1: Login to your accoutn and go to Template > Edit HTML

#custom-toolbar {
