Adding new announcement bar issue

Topic summary

A user encountered difficulty adding a second announcement bar to their Dawn theme store. They wanted to enable auto-rotation between multiple announcements (already had one for free shipping) but couldn’t find the “Add announcement” option shown in YouTube tutorials.

Issue: The interface didn’t match instructional videos—the expected nested “Add announcement” button under the announcements section was missing.

Resolution: The user discovered the solution independently: duplicating the existing announcement block using the top-right menu option, then editing the duplicate to create the second announcement. This allows the auto-rotation feature to work as intended.

The discussion is now resolved.

Hi,

I’m using the dawn theme and would like to take advantage of the option to auto-rotate my announcement every few seconds (I already have one offering free shipping), but I’m unable to add a new announcement, as the add announcement option isn’t nested under announcements like I’ve seen on all the instructional videos on youtube.

Any help would be greatly appreciated so thank you in advance!

I’ve figured it out! I had to duplicate it in the top right hand option then amended it
