Description

The Announcements Bar addon fixes a communication bar at the top of the WordPress site, displaying promotional messages, free shipping notices, countdowns, or calls with a clickable button directly above the main content. Integrated into the AIT Plugins family, it controls colors, positioning, and scheduling of campaigns for holidays, launches, and deals across virtual stores, blogs, and institutional pages without requiring template editing.

Main Features

  • Fixed top bar: displays the message in a persistent position above the theme header, visible on all selected pages.
  • Integrated action button: adds a clickable link with customizable text to direct visitors to an offer, registration, or checkout page.
  • Visual customization: adjusts background colors, text color, typography, and spacing to align the bar with the site’s visual identity.
  • Display control: sets which pages, posts, or content types the bar appears on, with options to hide for logged-in or returning users.
  • Responsive layout: adapts the bar’s behavior to mobile and tablet screens, maintaining message and button readability at any resolution.

Benefits of the Announcements Bar

  • More clicks on promotions: highlights the offer in the most visible area of the page and reduces friction between viewing and clicking.
  • Rapid notice communication: posts changes in hours, instability, delivery deadlines, or alerts without editing page content.
  • Seasonal campaign reinforcement: maintains the presence of Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Christmas, and other holidays across the entire site simultaneously.
  • Fast deployment: activates the bar through the admin panel and adjusts the message, colors, and link in minutes, without touching theme code.
