I reported this issue 8 months ago, and it still remains unresolved. I even told the developers the exact code line fix. The problem is that this plugin contains reset CSS styles on global elements like list items, etc. THIS PLUGIN WILL MESS UP YOUR THEME! Don’t waste your time on a plugin where the developers don’t fix reported issues, or seem to have a grasp on CSS.

Hi, I hope this review is seen by the builders because I can’t figure out where to go to add my question to a forum. I installed the free version on several websites and it is working quite well on one of the sites. However, I cannot get the message to change on two other sites – not with refresh or uninstall/delete from server. Even after I deleted the plugin from the web server, the notification still showed… HELP?!!! I just want to change the notice but it won’t take. Thank you!

This is one of the only notification bars I can get to work okay with the divi theme and a fixed navigation menu. Having the bottom location for notifications is a great alternative to doing other adjustments. Fairly easy to get a notice up asap and easily.

I checked almost all notification bar plugins and they all were horrible. Those with the best settings didn’t work, those who were primitive worked but usually have issues with Customizr theme (the bar was overlapping header) and lacked the ability to put the bar on the bottom of a site (where the overlapping issue is not relevant) or had no customization option for font sizes, etc.
I didn’t have hopes for this plugin here. It also has issues with an overlapping header but it can be placed on the bottom. The bar looks better on pre-made layouts but they rarely fit into site design, while the custom look is not so nice, especially when I set just simple static bar with a color and text then the close button is ugly and not possible to customize aside colors.
There are many areas where this plugin can be improved but in a free version, it offers a workable effect, especially that the competition fails miserably.
So in overall, this is a positive surprise.

The custom settings don’t work in my Yootheme theme (couldn’t change the colors or the fonts). I’m sure it’s because of the way Yootheme works. I left to try others and couldn’t find another as good as this, so returned and am using it with it’s built-in template. When used as a ticker with moving text, their built-in styles look fine. Only thing missing is the ability to customize the look in my theme, and I bet the developer has a solution for that.

Difficult to use, no way to remove the button, I just want to add a simple message to the top of my site, nope couldn’t figure that out.

I′m using AccessPress Lite. When I turn on the plugin my footer blocks move to the left.
So, without the plugint turned on I have 1 – 2 – 3 – 4, but when I turn it on it goes to:
1 – 4
2 – 3
So on the old positions 3 and 4 are now empty.
The plugin looks beautiful though.

I had been through multiple WP Notification Bar plugins that either a) didn’t work properly or b) didn’t support any of the features I wanted. I found the Apex Notification Bar Lite on a search, and didn’t have high hopes, but it was an extremely nice surprise.
It works perfectly, in both standard notification and multi-text (you enter in multiple HTML/text entries and they automatically cycle) formats, and the bar even accepts HTML code and links for added functionality. Multi-text is extremely important if you want to put up multiple site messages/links and easily cycle through them (ticker, slider or scroll) in either a top or bottom-mounted bar. And best of all, after slogging through hours on other notification bar plugins (and not finding what I wanted) I was literally up and running with a functional, great-looking multi-text bar (with custom text, images, fonts, etc.) in 5 minutes. It looks amazing too.
Talk about providing all the requisite features in a compact, very well-designed package. Kudos guys!
This is an amazing little plugin and I can’t recommend it enough. The Pro version is certainly more fully-featured, but there is more than enough in the Lite version to get you up and running.
