Hi,

I can help with the PM notification, but the avatar would require a plugin to work.

For the notification, follow these conditional rules:


<if condition="$bbuserinfo[pmunread]">
You have a new message
<else />
You have no new messages
</if>


If you wish to use this with some style, try this:

In the template navbar, find


<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="alt2" nowrap="nowrap">
<div class="smallfont">
<strong><phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[username]" 2="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$bbuserinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[welcome_x_link_y]</phrase></strong><br />


And replace this with


<if condition="$show['member']">
<td <if condition="$bbuserinfo[pmunread]">style="background-color:yellow"<else />class="alt2"</if> nowrap="nowrap">
<div class="smallfont">
<strong><phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[username]" 2="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$bbuserinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[welcome_x_link_y]</phrase></strong><br />


This basically makes the background colour of the welcome box bright yellow if there is a new PM, but keeps it regular colour if not. Alter it as you see fit!

Hope this is what you were looking for.

Hi Jamesfyx

Thank you for helping me whit this. Butt when the pm is received its not changing color. I want that the color change just like a police sirene :D.

Thnx for helping.

Ah, you want the colour to alternate.

The easiest way would be to use a 1x1 animated gif which flashes red, blue and white and then use this as the background istead of yellow. I don't have the tools to create this however, but here is the code you would need to use:

<if condition="$show['member']">
<td <if condition="$bbuserinfo[pmunread]">style="background: url('path/to/image.gif')"<else />class="alt2"</if> nowrap="nowrap">
<div class="smallfont">
<strong><phrase 1="$bbuserinfo[username]" 2="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$bbuserinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[welcome_x_link_y]</phrase></strong><br />

Again, you or somebody else would have to provide the image, and you would have to upload this to your webserver and edit where it says 'path/to/image.gif' to the location of your image yourself, but this is the simplest way.
