How It Works

When a message appears

An announcement is shown on the front of your site when all of these are true:

• There is at least one announcement.
• Today is within the schedule you set.
• The visitor matches the audience you chose.
• The visitor has not dismissed it on their browser.

If any condition fails, nothing is shown.

Bar vs. pop-up

• Bar — a slim strip pinned to the top of the page. Good for short, low-pressure notices.
• Pop-up — a centered box with a close button. Good for a message you really want seen.

Dismissing

When a visitor closes an announcement, the choice is remembered on their own browser. They will not see that same message again. Publishing a new announcement treats it as a fresh message, so it is shown again.

A quick tip

Use the bar for routine notices and reserve the pop-up for things that matter. Too many pop-ups can annoy visitors and reduce orders.
