Description
OffSign Scheduled Site Banner helps site owners show a clear message at the top of their site. It is useful for holiday notices, shipping delays, temporary closures, promotions, or important service updates.
The free plugin includes a complete single notice bar:
- Enable or disable the notice.
- Hide the notice automatically when the message is empty.
- Schedule by date and time.
- Choose background and text colors.
- Choose sticky, fixed, or static placement.
- Enable mobile marquee text for long messages.
- Let visitors dismiss the notice in their browser.
The plugin does not track visitors, does not load remote scripts, and does not contact third-party services.
Extensibility
OffSign Scheduled Site Banner includes filters that allow separate add-on plugins to extend its behavior. Paid add-ons should be distributed outside WordPress.org and are not required for the free plugin to work.
