- Content can be any HTML, a mini sales page, a graphic image, whatever you want
- WYSIWYG HTML editor built in
- Flexible Timing allows you to specify when the box pops over in number of seconds. Do it immediately or wait a few.
- The Candy Bar is CSS based, you can optionally override ANY of the CSS setting right in the admin area. You can change the border color, type, whatever, you have COMPLETE override capability of the default CSS.
Candy Bar has been tested with Wordpress 3.0 and the major browsers (Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari) on Both OSX and Windows.
