Themify Announcement Bar

Description

The Announcement Bar displays fixed notice bars at the top or bottom of the WordPress site, with a countdown timer, a configurable action button, and display rules by page, post, or category. Built for those who sell in fashion e-commerces, electronics, supplements, or online courses and need to communicate limited-time promotions, product launches, or seasonal coupons without resorting to popups that interrupt reading.

Key Features of the Announcement Bar

• Embedded countdown timer
  Counts the time until a promotion ends and disappears on its own when it reaches zero.
• Fixed position at the top or bottom
  Keeps the bar stuck to the top or bottom while the visitor scrolls the page.
• Configurable action button
  Adds a CTA with its own text, link, and color directly inside the bar.
• Segmented display rules
  Sets which pages, posts, categories, or devices each bar appears for the visitor.
• Color and typography customization
  Adjusts background, text, font, and borders to align the bar with the site’s visual identity.

Benefits of the Announcement Bar

• More clicks on time-limited campaigns
  The countdown creates a sense of urgency and pushes the visitor toward the offer.
• Communication without interrupting reading
  The bar stays visible without covering content or requiring closing like a popup does.
• Control over who sees each notice
  Segmentation prevents showing promotions out of context to the wrong audience.
• Quick setup without touching the theme
  All adjustments happen in the panel, without editing templates, CSS, or shortcodes.

Who Is the Announcement Bar Intended For?

• Those running Black Friday, Cyber Monday, or short-deadline stock clearance campaigns.
• Those launching infoproducts, courses, or online events and want a visible notice on every page.
• Those who need to communicate free shipping policy, scheduled maintenance, or seasonal coupons without interrupting navigation.

By combining a countdown, page-based segmentation, and an action button within a single bar, the Announcement Bar turns a passive notice into a direct conversion point. Works well for those who keep an active promotions calendar and want to test offer messages without relying on popups, floating banners, or manual theme interventions.
