Examples

Where an Site Wide Notice is required, add content to section Home » Site Assets » Site Wide Notices using the Site Wide Notice Content Type. This allows the user to enter a Title, Description, and the type of notice (Emergency, Warning, Notice), which will change the color of the notice e.g., Emergency orange, Warning yellow, Notice light blue. Emergency notices cannot be dismissed.

A full publish is required for the notice to appear across site pages.

Use the Site Wide Notice for less time sensitive messages to be displayed for longer periods. For more urgent messages that will be displayed for short periods use the Emergency Notice content type.
