Module Information Panel
The module allows you to display various information on the same top site, in the form of an information panel. In this way, you can help clients learn about product promotions and other important information. It can also show a form for entering a phone number or email, if required for promotion or contacting potential customers.
The information panel is displayed according to the schedule, with the ability to set up to the minute. Its design can be customized to match the style of your site. Events displayed on the panel can be closed at any convenient moment, so that it does not distract.
Why a module is needed
A frequent scenario for using this module is informing your clients about the site's work schedule on holidays or promotions. Thanks to the built-in constructor, this can be done without going to designers and programmers. Also, the module allows you to quickly and easily collect contact data of potential customers, who do not want to register, but may want to order later.

The important points in the setup:
It is imperative to set the correct time of display, if you do not specify that the panel will not be displayed.

The operating mode of the panel is promo or data collection.
Promo is just a banner that is displayed on the site;Data collection is a form with an input field that allows you to collect mail or phone number from visitors.
The mode of operation of the field to enter the main content is designer and text
Constructor is just a text field where you need to input html-codeText is an input field with a visual editor to customize text like in an office editor.
After the panel is created it still needs to be placed in the site layout.
