# Banners

The Banner Management feature allows you to display customizable messages or images to users. These banners can be configured to appear either on the login page (before a user authenticates) or within the user portal (after a user logs in). You can define a name, a start and end date, visibility options, and an active status toggle for each banner. This is useful for sharing announcements, reminders, or policy updates with specific audiences.

**Prerequisites**:

To configure a banner, ensure you have the following:

* **Image Files**: You can upload up to five images. They must be in JPEG, PNG, or JPG format and have a maximum file size of 500 KB each.
* **Filenames**: Each image filename can be up to 30 characters long.
* **Targeting Conditions**: For banners shown After Login, you can set conditions using user attributes such as User Type (e.g., "Employee") or Department (e.g., "HR"). You can use AND/OR logic to create complex rules.

* **Conditions**: Apply a set of conditions based on user attributes to ensure the banner is only displayed to a targeted group of users. Once configured, the banner will appear as a pop-up after a user logs in. Clicking the banner will redirect them to the specified URL. Users can close the banner by clicking the cross mark and confirming.
