Where to find it
In Online Store → Themes, open the unpublished theme editor, choose Header group, then Add section → Announcement bar. Availability follows the selected template and section group.
Set it up
- Open the Header group and add or select Announcement bar.
- Write a concise Text message. Set Announcement link when the entire announcement should lead to a useful page.
- Choose Text alignment and the color scheme. Preview the shared bar on several storefront pages before saving.

Content and media
- This section uses text rather than an image. Keep essential announcement details in readable text.
Check the mobile layout
- Keep the message short enough to wrap comfortably above the mobile Header. Test the link independently from the menu button.
Common questions and fixes
- The bar is absent from Add section: open the Header group; this module is restricted to that group.
- The message wraps too much: shorten the copy rather than using an image of small text.
