Hi Marc,
I'm sorry you didn't hear back, that is disappointing! I took a look in the app store and found a couple that may be useful alternatives for you!
- Hello announcements- https://apps.shopify.com/announcement-bar
- Quick Announcement Bar | Display Promotions, Notifications, Sales, and Deals- https://apps.shopify.com/quick-announcement-bar-always-keep-your-customers-informed
I hope this helps!
Warm regards,
Anne :)
