I agree. Why couldn't someone just put a timer on it? After it plays the first time it doesn't play again for say 5 minutes...

Installed, finally got it to work, pathing issue.....PEBKAC (Problem Exist Between the Keyboard and the Chair) error on my side.

*Clicks Install*

lmao...........dat's is a great mod amy............ hotwheels clicks *install*

Nice idea but irritating if it plays more than once.

Bob

Makes yer users read there pm's thou :speechless:

/me installs and will add his own sound file

Thanks amy

Great hack, but can you get it to only play once? instead of everytime you visit a page

Nice

I hope the upgrade for this play only one time :squareeyed:

thanks

It's not supported and don't think there will be an update, is nobody out here who can do it? Would be really a great feature for every forum. Thanks

Installed on my testing forum and works like a charm... but I think I'll hold off on installing it on my main forum until the question gets answered about playing the sound only once. Otherwise, great feature!!! :)

nope, needs play once only before i click install

Ok But if you check and read the pm's then it stops playing right ? If so I think that is working fine, I'll try it out.
Thanks

That's correct.............

G.. Wonder why this hack looks familiar... :P

No credit where credit is due is one reason why I wont release hacks anymore.

Pardon me? A long time ago, somebody released a sound mod. I did it differently, spoke with the original author and with his permission released the code. I don't remember if it was in 3.x or 2.x, but it was AGES ago. This was a port of that mod - I have not used yours or ever seen yours.

Edit to say I found it. It was back in 2.x and here is the original thread.

don't sweat it amy, keep up the good work................you do awesome stuff.

Thank you, hotwheels.

ditto that, amy!

thank you for your contribution Michael. :)

why has it taken you this long to comment???i'm sure if credit was due amykhar would have acknowledged it,seeing amykhar wasnt even aware that you had released something similar hack,anyway thanx to both of you:banana:

Because I rarely browse this site anymore due to this very reason.

Pardon you indeed. The original was EvilLS1's and my own code. Perhaps you asked him if you could release it but you never asked myself.

EvilLS1's release at 2.x:

My own release at 3.x:

Back in 2002 I had asked Evil if he knew if this hack existed. It did not so we both played around with it.

It's ok Amy. Even though you're still basing this mod off of my and Evil's code your mod is missing most of the better functions mine had back in 3.x. You're welcome to steal that code and transform it over to yours as I do not have time to dilly dally around this site much anymore anyway. Carry on! :)

Go read the code if you know how. The two original mods were done in completely different ways. I didn't like the way the original one was done and did it differently. I'm sorry you feel abused, but It's not something I'm going to worry about 3 years after the fact.

edit sorted the ff problem

but it doesnt work on the main index.php..

only works on other sections of the forum..?

okay i am having a problem with ie playing the sound...firefox plays the sound. am i doing something wrong please?

Great hack...but removed after 2 minutes because it would annoy the life out of people on every page refresh!

why doesnt this work in the in IE7

does anyone know why it doesnt work in the latest IE? it works it older versions fine
