Allow license expiry banner to be dismissed/minimized
Problem to solve
I am at the end of my current EE Ultimate license, and in the process of renewing. 28 days before expiry, GitLab started showing a large red banner saying, “Your license will expire in XX days.” This banner is rather large and cannot be dismissed or at least minimized. Also, the text in the banner is misaligned.
Target audience
- Sidney, Systems Administrator, https://design.gitlab.com/research/personas#persona-sidney
Further details
The license message banner is specifically coded to show a dismiss button only when a trial license is expiring. The banner cannot be dismissed for full licenses.
Proposal
I would like to be able to dismiss the banner as a fully licensed user. The large banner is annoying, and appears on every single page I visit in GitLab.
What does success look like, and how can we measure that?
Show the dismiss button for expiring non-trial licenses.
What is the type of buyer?
All EE buyers.
