विवरण
Update Press is a lightweight yet powerful WordPress plugin designed to help website owners effortlessly display and manage update notifications. Featuring a floating widget and a responsive sidebar drawer, it dynamically fetches and showcases the latest updates in real time. This makes it an ideal solution for businesses—especially those offering software, SaaS, or digital products—who want to keep users informed without requiring them to scroll or search.
The floating widget, which can be enabled directly from the website dashboard, includes a notification badge that highlights updates from the past seven days. When users click the badge, a sidebar drawer opens to reveal a list of recent updates. Clicking on any item allows users to read the full update instantly, ensuring important information is always just a tap away.
