How do you create a Running/Scrolling/Marquee Banner?

What is a Running Announcement Banner?

A running announcement banner is an announcement banner that contains multiple repeating messages. These messages scroll horizontally without stopping.

Create a Running Announcement Banner

Step 1: From the app’s dashboard, select the Banner module → Click the Create Banner button.

Step 2: Choose the Announcement Banner option in the select banner type modal → Click the Select button.

Step 3: Design your banner.

You will see the banner creation interface in a max modal. Here, you will design your banner in the Design tab.

In the collapsible Banner type section, select Running Banner.

Content Settings: Here, you will configure the content to display on your banner, such as text and buttons.

You can enter multiple messages, with each message separated by a fixed space on the running banner. Click Add Announcement to add more messages.

If you choose a button or link, you can customize its style and add the URL you want to direct buyers to when they interact with your banner.

Selecting Open in New Tab means that clicking on the banner/link/button will open the link in a new tab.

If you check Add Close Button to Dismiss Banner, a close button (an “X”) will appear in the top-right corner of the banner. Clicking this button will close the banner, but it will reappear when the page is reloaded.

The banner can appear at the Top of Page, Bottom of Page, or in a Custom Position.
