Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Sticky Banner

After activating the plugin, go to Sticky Banner in your WordPress admin sidebar. Check the "Show sticky banner on site" box to enable it, enter your announcement text, choose your colors, add an optional call-to-action button, and click Save Changes. You'll see a live preview as you configure!

Yes! You can choose to display the banner at either the top or bottom of your website. Simply select your preferred position in the plugin settings.
