Formatting not maintained

When you post a message with multiple lines, they are not maintained when displayed through this component. They all show up in a single line.

How do we add announcements

How do we add announcements

Expiration Disappointment

It appears that the "expiration" is a red herring. Announcements don't last the full time you select. Since the code isn't available I can't even work to resolve it so now I have to try to build it myself defeating the purpose of getting this from AppExchange.

Unable to input announcements

I would not recommend. Cannot add content.

Top Right button overlapping menu

Good component overall, however, there is a bug with the top right button when you scroll down. The button stays at the top of the SalesForce menu, making it look weird. The problem is on the css class .archanaanndevDE_Announcements .controls .next z-index: 10000; is forcing the button to stay that way. removing it should do the trick. Thanks

Condition setting

The display disappears when the condition is set. Is there a solution

Works fine, would love to see more!

It looks like it only shows announcements that have been posted AFTER the component was installed. I wish there were more settings to allow me to show if an announcement should exist until it's expiration date.

Also, I'd love if the code was publicly available so I can go play around with it on my own.

can't get it to display anything

Looks like a great app but I added it to my home page as a component and nothing is coming up. can you help?

From App Launcher, open Groups. Find and open the Group you want, then switch to Announcement to type your message and set an expiration date. Post it, and anyone in the Group will see that message on the Lightning Page component - wherever you put the Announcements Viewer

I have the same issue. Can anyone tell me how to add the announcement content?

Doesnt look at Expiration Date

I love this app. and definately needed. But it is not displaying the announcement thru the expiration date. It displays for a couple of days and then disappears. Despite the announcement expiration date being for 7 days in the future. Please correct this bug and resend this out....as this is a great application.

Like this a lot

This is a great component that we use to share announcements to a community of franchisees. It works beautifully and it delivers great value to all the external users and the internal comms team. I have a question though - We've seen some of the announcements disappear from the component. We are pretty sure the 'expiry date' was still a few days away. Is this a known bug?

The issue with the announcements disappearing from the component is definitely a bug. I've tracked some announcements from a few days back that were due to expire in a week, and now the component is blank, there's no announcements in the carousal. Is it possible that is I publish an update on the community (after a page layout change or similar..) that this somehow removes all announcements?
