thanks for the info mang, i was just about to uninstall this until i saw your post. trying it now.

Is this optimised for 3.6.8, or could it be backwards compatible (say, for 3.6.0) ? Great mod though even if not :)

it may work for earlier versions ..

Thank you for this! I am using the vBadvanced CMPS for my home page and the alert shows up but the link is not correct as it is missing the /forums path. What template do I edit to add this? Thank you.

same here...

Great mod! Insalled.

Hi, whit me on only one template works. Regards

Joe, thank you for this mod, sir. ;)

Oh, and I got your template figured out and installed, sir. ;)

Great mod, cheers :)

Is there any way to make the new message bit stay on the page until they view it?

Members like the new system better, but if they miss the new message reminder many then don't realize they have new messages?

Cheers! :)

Will this work on 3.7?

I have this strange issue where it displayed once. What I did was send a test pm and refreshed, but this time it did not appear. Is this once display setup per cookie session? Can you please explain how to modify it so it appears every time on unread private messages?

Thanks

I have this same problem ..... :up:

I'm not sure why the message dissappears when it does. Now that you mention the cookie thing, I think that's exactly the way it behaves on my system. It's not really that valuable to us when it works that way, particularly if people log in at the vBA home page first, so I was just about to uninstall it.

Perhaps I'll wait and see what answer you get first....

Other than that, very nice mod....

Regards,
Badger

no, it will not work.

i think that Princeton will upadate it with the first stable version of 3.7 (not beta)

I have it working fine on 3.7. Have you even tried it?

yes now it's working..

i've installed it but i haven't followed the tips on the first post (Make sure that your vBulletin Options...) :D

Yeah works on 3.6.4

how do you set Show New Private Message Notification Pop-up so its default to all new forum sign ups?

you can set it in ur admincp under registration option

How would I go about changing the colors in this?

Anybody know how to handle this one?

I got this working on vbadvanced and vbulletin 3.7. Pretty sure these aren't the best directions to do get this work, but I'm just sharing what I did to get it working.

My setup:
vbadvanced: www.yourdomain.com
vbulletin: www.yourdomain.com/forums

Before installing, I edited the xml file. I added the URL to the forums where it says private.php. There are 2 places to edit.

If you already, installed the mod, I would uninstall and make the following changes.

Before:
After:
----------

Before:
After:
----------

1) Install the mod.

2) Go to: vbulletin admin control panel -> vBa CMPS -> Default Settings -> Main Options
In "Portal Output Global Variables", add: newpm

3) Click save.

That should be all.

always showing a new unread pm's would be rad!

also, a list of all new unread pm's too, or the last 3? ... not just a link to the last one

I like it tho!!

tested and working on 3.8.3 :)

is there anyway to get the background in the cell with "New private Message:" to flash?

This Mod still works GREAT on new vB 3.8.4 board.

Thanks,

P.S. You have to manually put " $pmmessage " in all your navbar templates. ( I placed mine at the end of all my navbar templates and works like a treat ! :)

Cheers,

Does this mod work with 3.8? - EDIT: Yes, I just installed it and it works great. Only downside to this system is that the alert goes away once the user sees it for the first time.

Can anybody create an update where the alert does not go away until the user views the new PM?

you are fully right MegaSpecter!! it should be shown permanently until the PM is readed. because many users jus even see it while fast scrolling or something else...

is it possible? PLEASE add this great little feature

isn'T it possible? or this mod have no sense no user just see that little alert witch do not pop up!!

omg no support -.-

Does this work on vb 4? Any plans to update it to vb 4? :)

Does not work 3.8.7

I just installed it on v3.8.6 and it works fine. As has been said, to test it you need to send a PM to another account not your own. I could not figure out how to change the colors, but I did edit the product-gtpm_popup.xml file from:
to
and then re-imported the product w/overwrite=ON

That helps make it somewhat more noticeable, for users since it's not the same WIDTH as the rest of the page.

i'm waiting too..
