Announcements & Banners

Announcements let you post company-wide messages that appear as a banner at the top of every page for all users. Use them to communicate scheduled downtime, policy reminders, or other time-sensitive information.

Creating an Announcement

Go to Settings > Announcements and click New Announcement.

Fields

Message — The text displayed in the banner. Keep it concise. Supports **bold** and [link text](https://example.com) markdown.

Type — Controls the banner's appearance:

* Info (blue) — Neutral information or reminders.

* Warning (amber) — Caution or action required.

* Error (red) — Urgent or critical notices.

Start time (optional) — The banner will not appear before this date and time.

End time (optional) — The banner will automatically disappear after this date and time.

Active — Toggle this on to make the announcement visible. If off, the banner is saved as a draft but not shown to users.

Scheduling

If you set both a start and end time, the banner shows only during that window — no manual intervention needed. If you leave these blank, the banner shows as long as it is marked Active.

Managing Announcements

The Announcements list shows all existing banners with their type, active status, and schedule. You can:

Edit — Update any field at any time.

Activate / Deactivate — Toggle visibility without deleting the announcement.

Delete — Permanently remove an announcement.

Only one banner can be displayed at a time if overlapping schedules exist — the most recently updated active banner takes precedence.
