Hi Jeff,
With “Visitor conditions” -> Custom function you can write your own logic to say on which condition the announcement should be shown. In your case you are always returning true. So the announcement will be shown always (after closing the alert box)
Ideally it is for users to write some complex logic to decide if the announcement has to be shown when the page is loaded like checking cookies more than what is provided etc
In your case I think you wanted to show the announcement upon clicking the page right ?
You can try below code.
1. Remove the custom function you have configured
2. Go to display -> display announcement -> schedule
3. For Schedule duration –> selecte a older duration like 2 months before (this is to keep the announcement hidden)
Now paste this code.
function downloadclicked(){
var my_annoucement = document.getElementById('ancr-37').announcer;
my_announcement.show(); // or .hide();
}
document.addEventListener("click", downloadclicked);
Here, when the page is clicked, then announcement will be shown (via .show()). Every announcer bar has a property called .announcer. In above example, we are getting that and then calling .show() of that.
Change 37 to the ID of the announcer.
If you want to target *any* announcement. Then you can select the announcer element by class name. Then you need to do something like in this page and do the same like above inside a for loop.
Thanks,
Aakash
