Not functional on public view, very limited
by smiranda·1 year ago·1 reply

Styling options limited, external styling causes layout shift, no option to show ‘when’ as the instructions say, pubic view missing container and stuck at bottom. All told, a waste of time. And no support for free plugin means developer not available for his/her own system failures.

Does exactly what it says
by Anthony Hortin·2 years ago

Thanks for creating this plugin. It worked perfectly!

My only suggestion is that it would be good to add a bit of padding around the text to give the text some more breathing room. Also, having an option to change the font size on the settings page, would be great. I did both the above through css, but having a font size option would be super helpful.

Thanks again for creating a useful plugin 👍

Works with caveat
by luxtools·3 years ago·2 replies

Works OK, but if I exit the notice, it flashes up between everytime a page loads. If you want the notice there all the time, then I guess it’s OK.

For me, it’s unusable.

Very simple and nice
by kyajfx·3 years ago

Plugin is very light and easy to use. Would like to see show/hide toggle function in the future. Thanks

Sitewide Notice WP light but effective
by samuel5·3 years ago

I recommend this plugin because it serves the purpose it’s made for; it’s lightweight, doesn’t seem to impact speed and performance compared to other plugins. The plugin is free but if the website benefits from this plugin, the developer deserves donation.
