hi masterz

isn't there any hope for making this one works like {UBB} boards..?? so that every user can use this feature..!!!

IT will be a big HiT in the scene and nothing will be hard to get for VB users :bored: :bored: ..

see ya ..!!!

Not working on 2.2.9. Darn this would have been soo cool to have too :(

Just reporting that this hack works great on 2.3.0. You just need to follow the instructions and modify the admin/index.php and mod/index.php files abit different.

Nice hack. :smoke:

S. molinari - thx. for the hack. I was looking for something like this a little while back and couldn't find it :).

I have a few notes which may help others:

1. In your instructions you stated:
   
   
   Quote:

   ************************************************** ****************************/ /* insert this between lines 248 and 249 into index.php in /admin directory */ /************************************************** *************************** <br><a href="adminpopupmsg.php?s=<?php echo $session[sessionhash]; ?>&action=start"> Send a message </a>

   Like a lot of other people, I've hacked around with my index.php and therefore specifying line numbers isn't probably the best way to indicate where to add code. As I'm no expert I just looked at the control panel and placed it just after the line:
   
   
   Code:

   ---

   makenavoption("vBulletin Options","options.php?t=0","<br>");

   ---

   
   I also re-wrote the code similar to the other makenavoption line, thus:
   
   
   Code:

   ---

   makenavoption("Send a Popup Message","adminpopupmsg.php?t=0","<br><br>");

   ---

   That gave me the control panel item I need and worked fine :).
   
   
2. Your installation script doesn't seem to show the user options (via UserCP or Registration) for turning popup messages of this type on / off. However the AdminCP does does show the option to turn it on / off for admin / mods.
   
3. Perhaps include a line to say remove the original install file 'popupmsginstall.php' from the admin directory after installation is complete.

Might help a few other newbies like me :). Other than that, the popup works great. Thx :cool:.
