Hello @ormgrecipes
I’m writing to follow up on the issue where the text was not appearing in the notification bar at the bottom of your website.
I’ve investigated the code and have good news: I’ve found the exact cause. The problem isn’t that the text is missing or the wrong color. The issue is related to the fade-in animation that’s supposed to happen when the bar appears.
The Simple Explanation:
The notification bar is designed to be hidden at first, and then a small script makes it visible with a “fade-in” effect. Currently, a script that triggers this visibility is being blocked from loading correctly. This is a very common issue, usually caused by a caching or performance optimization plugin on the site. Because the script doesn’t run, the bar remains stuck in its initial “hidden” state.
I have two ways we can solve this:
Option 1: The Quick Fix (Immediate, but with a small trade-off)
I can add a single line of custom CSS code that will override the “hidden” setting and force the notification bar to be visible.
- Pro: This is very fast to implement and will make your text and button show up immediately.
- Con: The bar will simply appear without the smooth fadeInUp animation.
Here is the custom CSS:
/* Force NotificationX bar to be visible, overriding animation state */
#nx-bar-4 .animated {
visibility: visible !important;
}

Option 2: The Permanent Fix (Recommended)
The best solution is to fix the root cause by adjusting the settings in your website’s caching or performance plugin (e.g., WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, W3 Total Cache, etc.). This involves finding which setting is blocking the script and either disabling it or adding an exception for it.
- Pro: This restores the intended functionality completely, including the animation.
- Con: It may take a little more time to pinpoint the exact setting.
My Recommendation & Next Steps
I recommend we try for Option 2, as it will restore the site to its intended design.
Please let me know how you it goes.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
