Announcement Banner

[Mike Delafield]

I'm unable to locate the option to add Announcement Banners.

I can see in Knowledge Base articles that it should be here in the Admin Settings, but it's not available.

Confluence Administration

-Admin Tools

Lists only Automation and Spaces

Can anyone help?

Hi @Mike Delafield 

Welcome to the community.

If you use the cog wheek to enter Confluence administration you should see, as follows;

Ok I can definitely see only Spaces and Automation.

We're currently on the Free version - is that likely the reason?

Hi @Mike Delafield 

Yes, this is the reason, free tier subscriptions do lack many settings that require a paid plan.

Hi Mike - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

You have probably already seen this page with instructions:

https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/configuring-an-admin-announcement-banner/

But I don't think Announcement banners are available for Free accounts/subscriptions which you indicate you are using. 

There are some Atlassian Marketplace apps for Confluence Banners that might let you get around that.

Ok, thanks. I think you may be right
