Quarto does not recognize "announcement" property

[Carina-Firkowski]

Description

I'm trying to add an announcement banner to my website following these instructions.

I've pasted the exact code into my website's _quarto.yml file:

website:
  announcement: 
    icon: info-circle
    dismissable: true
    content: "**Alert** - this is some information that you should pay attention to"
    type: primary
    position: below-navbar

And I get the following error:

In file _quarto.yml
(line 6, columns 3--15) property name announcement is invalid
5: website:
6:   announcement:

Other than this, the website is fully functional and live. Is there a bug here or am I doing something wrong?

What version of Quarto CLI are you using? I suspect you are running a pretty old version (< 1.5).

[Carina-Firkowski]

I built the website with version 1.3.433

You need 1.5 or above.
Note that the current version is 1.8.
You should really consider upgrading your version (https://quarto.org/docs/get-started/).

Thanks, it's working now.
