Managing the Site Alerts

An additional feature of PSB is the site alert. There are two site alerts: An informational site alert (light blue bar with black text) and an emergency site alert (red bar with white text). When enabled, this is a highly visible way to alert your website visitors to informational/urgent, temporary information, such as severe weather or agency closings. Here is how to manage the site alert feature.

  1. To enable or edit the site alert, click Manage in the admin toolbar and click Content.
  2. From the main Content admin screen, click the Custom block tab.
  3. From the Custom block library, click the “Edit” button for the Site Alert content you want to enable/edit.
