## Kuvaus

Old Post Message automatically displays a customizable message at the beginning 
of posts that are older than a specified period since publication.

This is useful for technical blogs, system information, or any content that may 
become outdated over time, helping to inform readers that the information might 
not be current.

#### Main Features

   editing required)

 * **Message Customization**: Freely edit the message text
 * **Design Customization**: Change background color, border color, and text color
   using color pickers
 * **Icon Settings**: Customize the message icon with emojis or symbols
 * **Real-time Preview**: Instantly see changes in the settings screen
 * **ON/OFF Toggle**: Temporarily disable the feature without deactivating the plugin
 * **Responsive Design**: Properly displayed on mobile devices
 * **Performance Optimized**: Scripts and styles only load when needed
