Microsoft Q&A banners

  • Article

Banners are used on Microsoft Q&A to make different announcements:

  1. A unified user experience across the Learn site.
  2. Banners can have formatting, links, and a call to action.
  3. Banners can be added at the Q&A site level, at a specific page (such as a Tag page), or a set of URLs.
  4. Banners have an expiration date, so they're targeted to specific scenarios.
  5. Users can dismiss the banner if it doesn't apply to them.

Banners are dismissible. If you select the banner close button, the banner will be hidden, and the action is stored in your browser local storage. This means that the banner won't reappear unless you remove the key "dismissed-banner" from local storage.

Limitations

  • There is only one banner at at time on a page.
