If they close the announcement and log back in next time, does the same popup still display for them? If so, is there a way to prevent that from happening?

Thanks!

Yes, the pop-up keeps coming up again and again, every time they log in. I wish someone could make a "check box" to remove it, but it's not easy. Some sort of indexing between that particular announcement and each user should exist. As far as I know the announcements are not indexed in any way, so I am not sure we will ever see such an improvement.

I have to assume, a different method has to be used to create and store the annoucements.
