Announcement bar no longer visible - possibly behind header?

Topic summary

A user encountered issues with the announcement bar on the Refresh theme where rotating announcements lost their clickable links on positions 2 and 3, while the first announcement’s link worked correctly.

Initial Problem:

  • Attempted to fix by duplicating the announcement bar and deleting the original
  • This caused the announcement bar to disappear entirely from the live site (though still visible in the editor)
  • Suspected the issue related to header positioning

Resolution:

  • Reverted to a previously saved version to restore the announcement bar’s visibility
  • A community helper identified the root cause: anchor text links were only set for rotation 1, not for rotations 2 and 3
  • Solution: Simply add anchor tags to the missing rotation slots

Note: The helper indicated that code editor access would be needed to fully resolve the linking issue for all three rotating announcements.
