About Awsom News Announcement

Description

AWSOM News Announcement allows you to post news announcements in the area above your posts (or anywhere else you want) and edit it using the Visual Editor or code editor, all from the WordPress admin area. You can select who sees your posts (only non-registered people, or whatever level of registered user for your site) so you can keep certain things for only people who are members, or you can show ads only to non-registered visitors. You can now also run php code from the news area, so audio or video players can now be run without any other plugin. You can now add the news area to a post or page and also run php code there. You can set start and end dates for all news posts. The Plugin is now fully XHTML compliant.
Part of the www.AWSOM.org series of WordPress Plugins developed by Harknell, webmaster of the Webcomic at www.onezumi.com

Upgrading From Previous Version

4) Go to your Admin Plugins area and activate the new AWSOM News Announcement plugin.

things then turn the option “Place the News Announcement On Index Page above Posts” to off.
6) OR If you want to remove the now unnecessary Theme edits that version 1.0.2 required go into your theme index.php file
(or wherever you may have added the code) and delete:
