外掛說明
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.
✳️ Main Features:
- Countdown Timer: Simple, precise timer utilizing UTC time standards.
- Expiration Handling: Automatically replaces the timer with a custom “Expired Text” or hides the bar completely when the deadline is reached.
- Scrolling Text (Marquee): Choose from Static, Scroll Left, Scroll Right, and Scroll Alternate animations with adjustable speed.
- Full Styling: Easy-to-use settings for background color, text color, font size, bold/italic styles, and top/bottom margins.
- Lightweight: Zero jQuery dependency for a faster front-end experience.
- Translation-Ready: Uses the standard WordPress text domain
easybar.

常見問題集
-
Where are the settings located?
-
Look at your main WordPress dashboard menu on the left. You will see a top-level menu item called EasyBar. Click it to access all configuration options.
-
I installed the plugin, but I don’t see the bar. Why?
-
The bar is now enabled by default upon activation. If you still don’t see it, ensure the “Enable EasyBar” checkbox is checked. Version 1.0.0 also includes a fix for the WordPress Admin Bar, so it will not be covered by the admin panel.
-
How does the expiration logic work?
-
When the countdown timer expires:
1. If the “Text After Expiration” field is empty, the notification bar will be hidden.
2. If the field is filled, the main content will be replaced by your custom expired message. -
Can I include links in the bar text?
-
Yes. Both the main text and the expired text fields support basic HTML (like
<a>tags) for links.
