WP-TopBar WordPress Plugin
Create MULTIPLE, ROTATABLE TopBars that will be shown at the top of your website. TopBars are selected by a variety of options - includes scheduler!
What is a TopBar? It is a special message/image that you can show at the top (or bottom) of your website. WP-TopBar allows you to create an unlimited number of TopBars. They are cacheable and randomly selected based on the criteria you select, including start time, stop time and more. You can provide a weighting to skew selected TopBars to show up more often. It is super-duper customizable, even easy to add your own PHP and CSS.
Version 5.28 refactored how the TopBar handles cookies to be more compatible with caching plugins.
Version 5.25 adds more options to control which TopBars are shown. You can now have the TopBar excluded from sticky posts, pages, archives, and more. There is also a new PHP option to give you more granular control around which TopBars are selected to show — of course, use at your own risk.
Version 5.24 has some m
