Information Banners

The banner feature allows administrators to create customizable announcement messages that appear to users throughout the application. Banners can be configured at both agency and company levels with flexible display options. These banners can be used for alerting customers about specific events or requirements.

Key Features

  • Multi-language support: Create banners in Swedish, English, Finnish, Danish, and Norwegian
  • Flexible positioning: Display banners at the top of pages or as popup overlays
  • Alignment controls: Configure text alignment (left, center, right) for both popup and general text display
  • Hierarchical management: Agency banners can be overridden by company-specific banners
  • Conditional display: Option to include agency banners alongside company banners

Content Creation with Markdown

Banners support Markdown formatting, which provides a safe and user-friendly way to create rich content:

Heading

Bold text

Italic text

Why Markdown is Safer Than HTML

  • Security: Markdown prevents malicious script injection and XSS attacks that are possible with raw HTML
  • Consistency: Ensures uniform styling across all banners without breaking the application's design
  • Simplicity: Easy to learn and write, reducing the chance of formatting errors
  • Maintainability: Clean, readable syntax that's easy to edit and review

The system automatically converts Markdown to safe HTML, giving you formatting flexibility while maintaining security standards.
