How to add a Global Promo Message for Magento 2 Pearl Theme

When running a special campaign or announcement, you can use the Global Promo Message feature in the Pearl Theme for Magento 2 to reach your customers effectively.



Step 1 — Edit the Global Promo Block


Go to: Admin → Content → Elements → Blocks



Look for the static block WeltPixel Global Promo Message (you can use filters to find it).



Edit the block and add your own content.

Don’t forget to Save Block.



Updating to the New Promo Block Design (v1.7.3+)


In Pearl Theme version 1.7.3 (August 23, 2018), a new design and functionality were introduced for the promo block.


When upgrading from older versions, sample blocks and pages are not overwritten. If you’re on an older version, update the Global Promo CMS block manually with the code below (works with theme version 1.7.3+):


Copy the HTML below exactly as-is into the block content (no changes needed):


<div id="carousel">

<div class="btn-bar">

<div id="buttons">

<a id="prev" class="icon-angle-left" href="#">&nbsp;</a>

<a id="next" class="icon-angle-right" href="#">&nbsp;</a>

</div>

</div>

<div id="slides">

<ul>

<li class="slide">

<div class="quoteContainer">

<i class="icon-reload wpx-i"></i>

<span class="wpx-sub">30-DAY FREE RETURNS</span>

<p class="quote-phrase">Wear it, test it, keep what you like.</p>
