Notification Bar

3 min readUpdated 1 March 2026
The notification bar inserts a prominent announcement section at the very top of your website, above the header. Use it for important site-wide offers, notices, or calls to action. The bar appears consistently across all pages, so visitors see the message regardless of which page they land on.
The notification bar is available on the Business plan only.

Setting Up the Notification Bar

Enable the notification bar through your site's admin settings. Once activated, it appears as a horizontal banner spanning the full page width at the top of every page. You can enter your message text, add a link, and configure the display schedule.

Scheduling

You can set date restrictions so the notification only displays during a specific period. This is useful for limited-time promotions, seasonal sales, or event announcements. When the scheduled period ends, the bar hides automatically without any manual intervention.

Customising the Appearance

  1. 1Open the <a href="/support/kb/using-the-style-editor">Style Editor</a>
  2. 2Locate the Notification Bar section
  3. 3Adjust the background colour, text colour, and font settings
  4. 4Ensure sufficient contrast between the bar and the rest of your site design

Troubleshooting

Keep notification bar text short and punchy — one sentence is ideal. Include a clear call to action such as 'Shop Now' or 'Learn More' with a link to the relevant page.
