EasyBar: Awesome Notification Bar is a lightweight, highly functional plugin designed to display customizable notification, announcement, or promotion bars.
It utilizes pure JavaScript to minimize impact on performance and includes advanced features like a countdown timer and several scrolling text (marquee) modes.
IMPORTANT FOR REVIEWERS: 
Upon activation, the plugin is enabled by default with a moving “Alternate Scroll” animation. You will see a blue moving notification bar on the frontend immediately.
Where to find settings: 
The settings page is NOT under “Settings”. You will find a dedicated “EasyBar” menu item directly in your WordPress main left sidebar (top-level menu).
Ideal for: 
* Announcing sales and limited-time promotions with a deadline. 
* Displaying critical site-wide alerts (e.g., shipping delays). 
* Showing urgent calls-to-action to maximize conversions.
<h3>✳️ Main Features:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Countdown Timer: Simple, precise timer utilizing UTC time standards.</li>
<li>Expiration Handling: Automatically replaces the timer with a custom “Expired Text” or hides the bar completely when the deadline is reached.</li>
<li>Scrolling Text (Marquee): Choose from Static, Scroll Left, Scroll Right, and Scroll Alternate animations with adjustable speed.</li>
<li>Full Styling: Easy-to-use settings for background color, text color, font size, bold/italic styles, and top/bottom margins.</li>
<li>Lightweight: Zero jQuery dependency for a faster front-end experience.</li>
<li>Translation-Ready: Uses the standard WordPress text domain <code>easybar</code>.</li>
</ul>
