The Banner Alerts WordPress plugin is a very lightweight plugin and includes minimal styles. You can create your own unique styles by editing the css styles in the “Display styles” field in the Banner Alerts plugin settings. Below is a visual reference to quickly view the classes in the Banner Alerts plugin:

CSS Style Examples
These styles can be added to the “Display styles” field in the Banner Alerts plugin settings.

For sites with a fixed header (the header stays “sticky” at the top of the site when you scroll down), you will need to position the banner alerts container above it. Add these styles to the “Display styles” field in the Banner Alerts plugin settings underneath the existing styles.
.banner-alerts-container { position: absolute; top: 0; background: #fff; /*or whatever color you want the background to be */ z-index: 999; /*this may need to be higher depending on the index of your fixed header*/ width: 100%; }

.banner-alerts-container { background: #ff0055; /* enter your color value here */ color:#fff; } .banner-alerts h2 { font-size: 30px; color: #fff; } .banner-alerts { max-width: 900px; padding: 10px; margin: 0 auto; } .banner-alerts a { color: #fff; } a.dismiss { display: block; text-align: right; clear: both; }

.banner-alerts-container { background: #fff; color:#fff; } .banner-alerts h2 { font-size: 22px; padding-bottom: 5px; margin: 0; font-weight:normal; } .banner-alerts { max-width: 900px; padding: 10px; margin: 0 auto; } .alert { background: #ff0055; /* Enter your color value here. */ padding: 10px; margin: 10px 0; } .banner-alerts a { color: #fff; text-decoration: none; } a.dismiss { display: block; text-align: right; clear: both; color: #ff0055; */ enter your color value here. */ }
