    Hello Sir,
    This is a Community Website that I logged into– https://tefconnect.net/

    Now, while logged in, I discovered that the Admin is able to Post a Site-wide Message that all logged in users will see on the Top of their Dashboards as you can see here– https://prnt.sc/Jy2eUiK9kaAH

    Is there anything or plugin in BuddyDev that can be used to achieve something like that?

    Needing to hear from you soon.

    Regards.

    Hi Cordial,
    Welcome back.

    I am sorry, we don’t have anything like that currently.

    I believ you can achieve something similar with template changes(depending on your template) and using a custom post type.

    Regards

    Thanks for your reply.

    1.) The Template changes or Template override that you are speaking about, is a long journey.

    I will need to be very extremely good in PHP to be able to do that.

    Unfortunately, I can’t code PHP– thus I’m stranded, and this is not a viable option for me.

    But if you can send me the PHP Code Snippets that can be used to achieve it, I will gladly and most happily receive it.

    2.) Now, I continued searching, and came across this plugin— https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-pinned-feed-notices/

    The plugin is exactly what I want. Just that it doesn’t look beautiful as the sample I showed here– https://prnt.sc/Jy2eUiK9kaAH

    The sample I showed allowed us to add HTML Elements like Button, Image and Text to create the notice.

    But the plugin here( https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-pinned-feed-notices/ ) — seems to be All Text.

    Would you be able to fork the plugin, and create a more advanced version of it– that would make it possible for us to create our Notices with HTML elements like Button, Image, and Text, then be able to style them with CSS?

    Would you be able to fork the plugin and give it more superpowers?

    Regards.

    Hi,
    Thank you for the suggestion.
    I am sorry, We are unable to fork the plugin due to lack of resource.

    Since it is already using post type for the notice, I don’t see nay reason why it won’t support rich markup and styling.

    If you are unable to do so, I will suggest reaching out to the author.

    Regards
    Brajesh
