Given I am on the homepage on mobile or desktop
when I look at the header area
then the standard top yellow banner “Enjoy free express shipping worldwide” should no longer be visible
But keep function existing for future use (black friday f.e.)

(already existed)

If toggled “visible” in WP backend, display yellow top banner (function already existing) on desktop and mobile
AND
Move the banner OVER the Top menu on mobile and make it non-sticky when scrolling

Scenario: Activation and behavior of the white header variant
Given I am logged in as an administrator
And I am on the “Header Settings” or similar in the WordPress backend
When I choose “Header Color” → “White” and save
Then on page load the front-end header renders in the white style. I can switch back to black if I want.

When the visitor scrolls down past the defined trigger point (e.g. 50px)
Then the header background smoothly fades from white into the standard black header within 0.3s
And the logo and menu links switch to their black-header variants

When the visitor scrolls back up above the trigger point
Then the header background smoothly fades back to white within 0.3s
And the logo and menu links switch back to their white-header variants

And on tablet and mobile with the white header active
Then the header displays the white variant
And the same scroll-triggered fade to black and back still applies
