Orbisius Simple Notice

This plugin allows you to show a simple notice to alert your users about server maintenance, new product launches etc.

Features / Benefits

• Enter text an the message will be shown to your users.
• For logged in users the notice will be shifted by 28px (because WP admin bar is obstructing the notice)
• Rich text editor to enter notice text
• Use nice color pickers to select the colors for notice text, background and link color (if any).
• Supports text and HTML
• The notice can be shown on top of all content or to push the content down
• You can choose to show the notice on all pages/posts or on the home page only
• Optionally show a close button. When a notice is closed/dismissed it won’t be shown again until the message is changed or more than 2 days have passed.
