🎯 Purpose

The Alert widget is designed to present prominent notices, warnings, or promotional messages in a striking box—ideal for urgency prompts, banner alerts, or call-to-action highlights.


⚙️ Content Features

  • Alert Message
    A customizable text area for your message. Supports dynamic content or static text.

  • Optional Prefix or Icon
    Add a label like “Notice:” or an icon to draw attention. Supports any icon from the library, including custom options.

  • Close Button
    Option to include a dismiss “X” icon. You can choose whether it permanently hides the alert when clicked or simply removes it from view.

  • Link Support
    Optional hyperlink for the alert message or icon, with controls for opening in a new tab and adding nofollow attributes.


🎨 Style & Design Customization

Container Styling

  • Adjust background color, border style, padding, border radius, and box shadow.

  • Choose overall alignment (left, center, right, or justified).

Typography

  • Customize the font, size, weight, color, letter spacing, and text shadows for the main message and optional prefix.

Icon & Button Styling

  • Set icon size, color, spacing, hover effects, and background shapes.

  • Style the close button separately—adjust color, size, border, background, hover behaviors, and positioning.


🛠️ Advanced Configuration

  • Responsive Controls
    Adjust padding, typography, and icon size separately for desktop, tablet, and mobile views.

  • Behavior Settings
    Choose whether alert disappears permanently or momentarily once closed.

  • Motion & Effects
    Include entrance animations or scroll-triggered effects to capture attention.

  • Layout Refinements
    Manage margins, z-index, HTML attributes, and custom CSS classes to fit your design needs.


âś… Best Practices

  • Use to highlight important notices like limited-time offers, safety warnings, or updates.

  • Keep messages short and compelling, with clear calls to action if applicable.

  • Use contrastive colors for background and text for improved visibility.

  • Include icons or prefix text to structurally reinforce the alert’s type.

  • Test responsiveness to make sure the alert displays cleanly across devices, avoiding overflow or overlap.


📌 Ideal Use Cases

  • Sale or promotion alerts across website banners.

  • Policy update notices or urgent service announcements.

  • Security reminders—like password change prompts or cookie notices.

  • Subscription or registration confirmations when paired with calls to action.


The Alert widget is a powerful tool for delivering visually impactful site messages—offering extensive styling and behavior options to grab attention and communicate clearly.
