Announcement

Posts an announcement to the Craft control panel when the notification event is triggered.

Announcements are posted in the upper-right corner of the control panel for each user (marked by the gift icon).

Config

Announcement Title

The heading of the announcement.

Announcement Message

The body of the announcement. Supports Markdown.

Dynamic Message Fields

As noted in the screenshot above, all text fields can use templating and special variables.

Announcement Recipients

Announcements are only visible within the control panel. All recipient types are supported, but recipients without control panel access will be skipped.

Examples

Announcements support a separate body and heading. Both fields render through the standard Twig parsing.

A new entry was published

"{{ entry.title }}" is now live in the {{ entry.section.name }} section.

A new user joined

{{ user.fullName }} just signed up ({{ user.email }}).

A high-value order came in

{% if order.totalPrice < 1000 %}
    {% skipMessage "Below the announcement threshold." %}
{% endif %}

Order {{ order.shortNumber }} - {{ order.totalPrice|currency }} - placed by {{ order.email }}.
