Pop-Up Notices
What is a Pop-Up Notice?
A Pop-Up Notice is a temporary message that you can set to appear to specified users in your platform. This is useful when you want to broadcast important information. You can customize the message, select a location, and choose to assign the Notice to an individual user, as well as Circles, Teams, or by Role.

This differs from the Notification Center, which only notifies the user of system notifications and requires the user to open the panel to view it. Pop-Up Notices overlay any screen the user is viewing and can be set to appear multiple times after it is closed.

Depending on the number you specified while creating the Pop-Up Notice, it will continue to reappear on subsequent page loads.
Multiple Pop-Up Notices can be Active at the same time, and will stack.
