详情介绍:
- Visual builder with live preview. Every setting updates a preview of the bar inside wp-admin, including the countdown reaching zero, before anything appears on your live site.
- Lead capture built in. Replace the button with a signup form that collects email only, or name, email and phone. Leads are stored in your own database and can be exported to CSV at any time.
- Works with any theme. Bars are injected and positioned by Heraldly, so there is nothing to add to your theme files.
- Privacy-friendly by default. No visitor data leaves your site unless you deliberately switch on the optional external country lookup with your own API key.
- Top or bottom position for each bar
- Sticky bar option: keep any top bar pinned while visitors scroll. Several sticky bars stack neatly in the order you choose
- Static text or rotating messages with fade, slide or typewriter effect
- Call-to-action button with custom text, link, "open in new tab", border, rounded corners, shadow and hover colors
- Countdown timer with your choice of hiding the bar or freezing at 00:00 when it ends; put each unit in its own rounded, colored box
- Size and position (left, center, right) for the message, the countdown and the button or form, each set on its own without changing the bar height
- Entrance animations (slide, fade, bounce) and attention effects (pulse, shake) for the button
- Solid color or background image with an adjustable darkening overlay
- Optional highlighted text box inside the bar, and five content box sizes
- Close (X) button that remembers the visitor's choice for the session
- Show on desktop, mobile or both
- Collect email, or name + email + phone
- Custom placeholders, button text and success message
- After submit: keep the bar visible or hide it after a delay you set
- Spam protection with a hidden honeypot field and per-visitor submission limit
- Leads screen in wp-admin with one-click CSV export
- Show on all pages, the homepage only, or specific pages (and WooCommerce products)
- Schedule a bar with a start and end date and time in your site's timezone
- Country targeting: show a bar only in, or hide it from, a list of countries. Reads the country from your CDN (for example Cloudflare) with no external requests. An optional ip-api.com Pro lookup with your own key is available for sites without a CDN
- Turn any bar on or off with one click
- Impressions (counted once per visitor session) and clicks per bar
- Click-through rate shown on the Dashboard
- Duplicate a bar and compare results
- All bars in one list with status, impressions, clicks and CTR
- Drag and drop to reorder bars; the order controls which bar shows first and how sticky bars stack
- Duplicate, enable, disable or delete a bar without leaving the page
- Sale and discount announcement bar
- Free shipping or minimum order bar for WooCommerce
- Product launch or event countdown bar
- Newsletter and email signup bar
- Site-wide alert or maintenance notice
- Welcome bar for first-time visitors
- Country-specific promotions

常见问题:
Can I show more than one bar at the same time?
Yes. Create as many bars as you like. Active top bars stack in the order set on the Dashboard (drag to reorder). If you need more than one bottom bar, schedule them for different times, because bottom bars do not stack.
Can I collect email addresses with the bar?
Yes. Turn on the signup form in the builder and choose email only, or name, email and phone. Submissions appear under Heraldly > Leads and can be exported to CSV.
Where are collected leads stored?
In a table in your own WordPress database. They are never sent anywhere. Deleting the plugin from the Plugins screen removes the table and all bars.
Does the signup form have spam protection?
Yes. A hidden honeypot field catches most bots, every submission is validated on the server, and each visitor is limited to five submissions per ten minutes.
Does country targeting send visitor data anywhere?
Not by default. Out of the box, the visitor's country is read only from a header your host or CDN already adds to each request (for example Cloudflare's CF-IPCountry). Nothing is sent to any third party. If the country cannot be determined, country-targeted bars are shown as normal. If you switch on the optional external lookup under Heraldly > Settings and enter your own ip-api.com Pro key, visitor IP addresses are sent to ip-api.com as described under External services below.
My site is behind Cloudflare or another proxy. Do I need to change anything?
Yes. Go to Heraldly > Settings and set "Read the visitor IP from" to match your proxy (for example Cloudflare). By default Heraldly trusts only the direct connection address, which cannot be faked. Behind a proxy that address belongs to the proxy, so all visitors would share one signup-form limit until you change this setting. The Settings screen shows a hint if it detects proxy headers.
Does Heraldly work with caching plugins?
Yes for showing bars. If you use a full-page cache, clear it after you create, change or schedule a bar so visitors see the update straight away. Country targeting and schedules are applied when a page is generated, so a long cache lifetime can delay those rules until the cache refreshes.
更新日志:
- New: every element of the bar - the message, the countdown, and the button or signup form - now has its own size and its own position (left, center or right), independent of the bar height and of each other.
- New: message text can be bold.
- New: countdown units (days, hours, minutes, seconds) can each sit in their own colored box with adjustable corner roundness and an optional border; unit labels can be short, full words, or hidden.
- New: signup form text size and field corner roundness.
- Improved: the Content Box Size now sets the bar height and base size, while each element can override its own size.
- Initial release.
