Installed on 3.62 and worked fine gr8 job buddy...

This would truly make this modification superior, :cool:

I get the same thing... any idea how to fix this? The sound plays, but I have to click that damn message every time...

maybe go into your browser tools/preferences (depends on what browser you are using) and changing your security setting for active x controls....
if you have the option to do so add the website to your 'trusted' list....

this is why i asked to use .swf instead of .wav file at the start of this thread's.

:down:

Microsoft ActiveX Control Fix!


Issue Description:

For anyone who installed this hack and gets the popup "Click to run an activeX control on this web page" when they receive a new PM.

Issue FIX:

Open Windows Media Player --> Tools --> Options --> File Types

Check windows audio file (wav)


Enjoy guys :classic:

OMG thank you Paul!!!!!!!!
hack works great btw with this fix... my members love it!

is there a way to add more sounds?

just dump more wav's in the sound dir :)

Ok, I like this, but I don't want random messages. I want just one. How do I do that?

Does not work with vBadvanced CMPS v2.2.0, but I can get it to work on almost everywhere else

hehe anyone got the AOL "You've Got Mail" sound bit?

I tried to find that and no such luck

Is this all that needs to be done?

That removes the random thing and just makes one sound play, right? I asking opinions because this is what I tried and some bugs were reported. Somethign I did wrong or missed?

Can anyone else confirm that it doesnt work with CMPS 2.20 installed?
I would really like to install this.
I tried going ahead and installing it anyway but I can't find this code in my Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates - Navbar

The closest I got is this..
Im not sure if thats the difference in having CMPS installed and not..
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This is a really cool mod and I would like to put it in.

Thanks in advance.

I went ahead and installed it.. The only thing that was different was the code mentioned above.

It seems to be working correctly.

Pretty cool..
Thanks.

Yep still not working on CMPS index, but it does work every where else

you mean this one?
I right clicked>save target as to get it
also have Owen Wilson 'You've Got Mail' if anyone is interested... my zipping capabilites went by-by on my computer otherwise I'd zip em up and attach them here.

This would be the correct way of removing the random wav and making it static, right?

I took the 'easy way out' and just uploaded a single wav file 5 times but with the message1.wav message2.wav message3.wav etc as it's name :D
hate messing with code when I don't have to :D

Yeah, I thought about doing that, but it seemed easier to just remove the random part and make it a static file. Did the PM notification popup stop working for you when you installed this hack?

i do not always get a sound notification for P.m's

i am running 3.6.3 and Vba cmps 2.2.0

also noticed as mentioned before, it does not play the sound untill you click to enter the message, with pop-up notification enabled.

Will try to disable and see how that goes.

ummm no, but the pop up screwed with the wav playing, wouldn't play until i clicked cancel or okay .... check your options though you may need to edit the pop-up option, or it may have inadvertantly gotten changed during the install... yeah I think that's what happened to me, I normally don't use the pop-up as an option because I have the flashing pm envelope hack installed (which works fine with 3.6.2 btw) and after installing *this* mod the pop-up was suddenly turned on instead of off, tho that could have been me....

Thank you :D

Installed!

Awesome!

Installed!

That's kind of a problem though. It's really only supposed to notify you once...or that's how it used to work. I had to remove it, since it wasn't working correctly.

This works for 3.6.4?

The new way that IE handles ActiveX also made this a problem. It would prompt every time before it played. Is this still a problem?

But are you even using IE7, and if not, do you know if any members are? The deal is, with the new ActiveX crap, embedded objects have to be called by JS, or things like audio files cause IE7 to prompt the user via the infobar all the time. I had this installed at one time, but it was so annoying, I had to remove it. Also, I don't want it to repeat every time they refresh or click anything. I liked the way it used to work in the old 2.3.x version.

Works great. Nice addon!

Been installed in our forum for a while, but hadn't posted sorry
Great addon thanks

Is not working for me too....I really wanted this to work.

btw, running vBulletin 3.6.8 Patch Level 2 and tren_z_x as my style.

I have hit a problem...

Guys,

I am new to all of this and am learning every day.

But when it says:

I must admit I am confused. Am I right in assuming the location is the Lower one of the two in my attachment pic (Add New Product), Please? If so, what would I have to tpye in the other fields, Please?

Many Thanks,
