Announcement bar

Theme editor → Header group → Announcement bar (the thin bar above the header). Limited to one instance.

  • Text — the message shown, e.g. “Free shipping over £50”.
  • Link — optional URL; makes the whole bar clickable.
  • Scrolling text — makes the text scroll continuously left-to-right instead of sitting still. Default off.
    • Scrolling speed (only when scrolling text is on) — how many seconds one full scroll takes. Range 20–120s, default 20s (lower = faster).
  • Font style — which type role (Heading/Text/Button/Menu) the announcement text borrows from Typography. Default Text.
  • Size — X-large down to X-small. Default X-small.
  • Color scheme — default Scheme 1.

There’s only one announcement bar and it has no blocks — for multiple messages, combine them into the single Text field and turn on Scrolling text.
