Thank you.

Nice little mod, but was it really necessary? All you really had to do was submit an article with the pre-written messages, and specify which usergroup or other settings is relevant to each one, and let us put them into the native notices system. Why have a bit of 3rd party code floating around in the database just for a few canned messages?

You're absolutely correct. Of course this mod doesn't add any code, it merely creates messages and their corresponding settings. Could an article explain that? You bet.

You may notice that this version was posted a couple years back right after the release of 4.0 and that there's a number of versions for older vBulletin installs. After having the welcome header system out there for over 7 years [mod was launched in the vB 2.0 days] people asked for it to continue even with the advent of notices so here it was ported over.

As the introduction and install file states, this is just intended to get people started with some ideas of marketing messages. I wish everyone would create their own but that's not the case and for those who want a jump start, this makes it very easy. If that's not you then by no means should you use it.

dumb question, once installed, where do I go to change my message?

Head over to your notices manager where you can not just change the text but easily configure settings and build more messages. This is a vBulletin default feature, welcome headers are just a few default messages to get ya started.

How do I change the color of the background of the header?

The headers run through the notices system which is a default part of vBulletin. Customize the notices css .

Thanks Ted! I got it now!

Thanks, works great with 4.1.4. Just what I've been looking for. :)

One thing.... how can I get them to stay there even after you've logged into the site/forum and not just there if you're not logged on?
