- Manage bars from a dedicated admin screen (add, edit, publish/draft, trash)
- Custom background and text color per bar, with a live preview
- Show bars at the top or bottom of the screen (fixed position)
- Target a bar to the entire site, homepage only, or specific pages/posts
- Show/hide per device (desktop only, mobile only, or both)
- Optional close button with “remember dismissal” cookie (choose how many days)
- Optional scheduling — show a bar only between two dates
- Entrance animation (slide or fade) or none
- Lightweight — no jQuery/Bootstrap dependency on the front end
