Here’s a little more about each of the sections:

Social Networks: You can use this section to link to your social media pages, their respective icons and logos will be displayed in place of the link.

Links: You can add customised links and choose the text to display, such as a call to action, for example "Learn more".

Text: You can use this to add plain text to your notification bar, such as any notices or your slogan.

Business Address / Contact Numbers: If you want any part of these information to be visible on your notification bar, you can populate the relevant fields.

Please remember to press “Save Changes” at the bottom to save your work!
