💡 Tips & Notes
- The bar is mobile responsive and works with most themes out of the box.
- If using caching plugins (e.g., Autoptimize, LiteSpeed), exclude
snb-frontend.jsfrom being aggregated for better compatibility. - When using the dismiss option, users will not see the bar again unless you:
- Change the notice version number
- Or the cookie expires (default duration is 30 days)
