This modification will place a small "announcement" notice at the top of your forum home page or globally on all pages. Within the ACP you can edit multiple areas to make it suit your forum look and colors. Choose the border size, border color, border type, background color, and more.

The announcement text supports BBCode, HTML, and forum smilies. You can also disable it if you don't want any message shown.

This adds one query to your home page if you do only the INDEX VIEW edit in sources/page_head.php. Else it will add an extra query on all pages.
