SnapBar

Description

SnapBar adds a simple, customizable notification bar to the top of your WordPress site. Perfect for announcements, promotions, or important messages.

Why SnapBar?

Most notification bar plugins have 40+ settings, upsell nags, and features you’ll never use. SnapBar gives you exactly what you need:

  • Rich text message with bold, italic, and links
  • Customizable bar and text colors
  • Close button with « don’t show again » cookie
  • Auto-close timer
  • URL targeting (show on specific pages or exclude pages)
  • Mobile visibility toggle
  • Date scheduling (start/end dates)
  • Admin preview mode — see the bar before enabling it
  • No jQuery on the front end — pure vanilla JS
  • Single-file plugin — lightweight and fast

12 settings. 3 tabs. That’s it.

Captures d’écran

  • Settings page — Content tab
  • Settings page — Appearance tab
  • Settings page — Targeting & Behavior tab
  • Notification bar on the front end

Installation

  1. Upload the snapbar folder to /wp-content/plugins/
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu
  3. Go to Settings > SnapBar
  4. Write your message, pick your colors, enable the bar

FAQ

How do I preview the bar without enabling it?

Click the « Preview Bar » button on the settings page. It opens your site with the bar visible only to you.

Can I show the bar only on certain pages?

Yes. Under Targeting & Behavior, choose « Only matching URLs » and enter URL patterns (one per line). For example, entering « shop » will match /shop, /shop/products, etc.

Does this plugin use jQuery?

Not on the front end. The admin settings page uses jQuery (which WordPress already loads in admin), but the visitor-facing bar is pure vanilla JavaScript.

Can I add links in the message?

Yes. The message editor supports bold, italic, links, and basic HTML — the same editor you use for WordPress posts.
