Announcement banner customization

Hello,

I would like to totally customize the announcements banner on my Portal.  Effectively I would like to replace it with a custom component.  Can this be achieved using Bootstrap for example to override the CSS?  Can anyone advise me on where to start implementing this type of change?

Thanks.

No problem! I've run in to a few similar issues before, where the conclusion I had to report, was it was not possible.

The platform also has some kind jQuery built in, which was what I used in the olden days to build carousels. But I think it will be a struggle without being able to access the HTML, and ultimately not worth the effort.

Maybe doing something cool with a clone of the OOB announcement widget, would be the way to go. I guess with a cookie, you could highlight new announcements once or twice, with a bright color on the frontpage.

 

Good luck
