Announcement Banner

Show a dismissible announcement bar below the navbar site-wide — great for site notices, article teasers, or events.

Configuration

announcement:
  enable: true
  content: Welcome to my personal site    # announcement text (plain text)
  link: https://example.com/post/1        # optional "learn more" link
  link_text: Learn more                   # link text

Options

Field	Description
announcement.enable	Enable the banner
announcement.content	Announcement text, plain text (HTML is escaped)
announcement.link	Optional link; external links open in a new tab
announcement.link_text	Link text, defaults to "Learn more"

Behavior

• After a visitor clicks × to dismiss, the state is stored in their browser's localStorage — the banner won't show again on refresh or revisit
• When the announcement content (or link) changes, its fingerprint changes and the banner automatically reappears for all visitors
• No manual action needed — just edit the text

Notes

• The banner appears on all pages (home, posts, subpages, etc.)
• It ships hidden and is revealed by JS, so visitors who dismissed it or have JS disabled never see a layout flash
