Discover, trust, install: FAIR 1.0 is here

Simple Site Notice – Top Bar & Bottom Bar lets you display a customizable notification banner on your WordPress site, either fixed to the top of the screen or placed inline at the bottom.

* Customize font size and padding
* Add your own CSS styles (without <style> tags)
* Option to hide the notice on mobile devices
* Option to enable a close button so users can dismiss the notice
* Option to remember closure with a cookie (notice stays hidden after closing)
* Lightweight and clean – no JavaScript required (unless close button is enabled)
* Works instantly – no setup complexity
