<h3>What you need, where you need it – and when.</h3>
For WordPress 3.8 to 4.9+ – Backward compatibile to WordPress 3.5 (see <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/admin-menus-fixed/other_notes/" rel="ugc">Other Notes</a>) 
Works with: <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ozh-admin-drop-down-menu/" rel="ugc">Ozh’ Admin Drop Down Menu 3.6+</a> and <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ag-custom-admin/" rel="ugc">AG Custom Admin 1.2.5+</a>
Admin Menus Fixed Three Ways: As a companion to Ozh’ Admin Drop Down Menu AND/OR AG Custom Admin OR Standalone (WordPress 3.5-3.7)
<ul>
<li>
New in v1.4 Now Responsive down to phone sizes. Ozh’ Admin Drop Down Menu header background automatically changes to high contrast when displayed on smaller screens.
</li>
<li>
New in v1.4 Ozh’ Admin Drop Down Menu Header Gradient now wraps when the header does; improving the look and readability!
</li>
<li>
Consolidates the WordPress Toolbar and Ozh’s menu and makes them both always readily available at the top of your window; no matter where you happen to be scrolled on a long page.
</li>
<li>
Incorporates HoverIntent to chill the Toolbar drop-down menu hair trigger, so now you can overshoot Ozh’ Menu without the Toolbar menu falsely stepping on it; causing you to move away until it closes, so that you can get to what you were going for. Way easier to work this way. Fast. Efficient.
</li>
<li>
Automatically adjusts to the WordPress Toolbar display state; whether disabled by Ozh’ Admin Drop Down Menu or AG Custom Admin.
</li>
</ul>
Standalone: (Depreciated) The WordPress Devs have taken a page from this plugin’s book, pulling the concept into core by fixed-positioning the Toolbar and Admin Menus in versions 3.8+, so the plugin code is shrinking. Kinda goes against the new direction of pulling code out of core and having plugins handle the function if you want/need it, but I’m glad that the concept has been adopted; because it was long overdue. The plugin is returning to its own core purpose, that of enhancing Ozh’ Admin Drop Down Menu, and I’m OK with that. – see <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/admin-menus-fixed/other_notes/" rel="ugc">Other Notes</a>

Announcer – Sticky Message Banner, Notification Bar – Add to Top, Bottom of your Website

I tried a few other banner plugins but none of them did what I needed: multiple banners displaying conditionally on specific pages.  Announcer got the job done - thank you!  A+

Worked as advertised!

After searching through quite a few announcement bar plugins, I found that this is the best one. The conditional display settings are awesome. 

Well built admin interface and front end works perfectly.

Add notification bar to your site and display any message like welcome message, promotions, coupons, news banner to the top/bottom of the page.
