Implementation FAQ

Absolutely. You can set the condition to check for specific hours (e.g., if (hour >= 16 && hour <= 19)) to display a "Happy Hour is Live!" banner.

No. The script runs once upon page load to determine the message, making it extremely lightweight and SEO-friendly.

You can use standard CSS to target the ID time-message-display to change the size, color, and weight of the text.
