Theme configuration

Content

  • twt.extension.announcementBanner.content

• Optional: If necessary, edit the URL with the following snippet:

  • twt.extension.announcementBanner.link

Note: For information on how to edit snippets, see the following instructions: Texts: Editing and translation

Tip: If a change does not affect the storefront, just clear the Shopware cache: Clearing / warming up the Shopware cache

Announcement banner closable

With the configuration "Closable", a close button is added to the banner. This allows the visitor to hide the banner for one day.

This is logged via a "local storage" cookie. An seperate entry is added to the cookie consent from Shopware for this purpose. If this "comfort feature" is not agreed to, the close button is not displayed.

Note: Please note that Shopware adds this entry for each installed theme! This option is therefore not recommended if you are using more than one ThemeWare® theme.
