If the utility acts like it is working but there are no popups coming it could be one of the following reasons:

1. The $headnewmsg variable is not added to the headinclude template. (I even made this mistake in my demo board.:))

2. The board options are not saved in the Admin CP.

3. You added the changes to the /admin/global.php and not to the main global.php or you put the changes in the wrong place.

4. You have Javascript turned off in your browser.

I can't think of any more right now.

This is of course assuming that none of your other hacks change the normal functioning of the $headinclude call in global.php.

Hope this helps.

THANKS !!

Here's my PhPMyAdmin report: 19 Allow Popup messaging? checkmessages 1 This function allows Admins and Mods to send quick private messages to users. yesno 15

and:
</style>

$headnewmsg
$headnewpm
Is in all the templates.

I resaved the control panel options as well.

The problem lies in this bit of the install script:

echo "<p>Adding extra template for popups...</p>\n";
$template = '<script language="JavaScript"> alert_box=alert("$bbtitle Messaging\n\n$popmessage\n");
</script>';

No custom template is created. Please tell me what to do here and I am sure it will work perfectly. I will also write a new document for other users. Thank you.

look in your phpmy admin
enter
"SELECT * from template where title like "head_newmsg" LIMIT 0, 30 " if there is the template that all is ok..
if there is none enter new template

You have to Create a template called "head_newmsg"

Insert in the template
ok?

hmmm..

Lordmusic do you have more than one template set?

Scott

Yep I have 4 and I have applied this to all of them. I am still working on it. I customy added all the MySQL stuff, added the $ command to all sections, and the template. Still no luck. I have tried everything. I get no errors, but I get no popups eigther.

Everything should be working perfectly, any ideas?

Hello Lordmusic,

Could you check the phpmysql results when you run these queries.

SELECT * FROM template WHERE title='head_newmsg'

Here your looking for 4 or 5 results. When you say 4 style sets does that include the default? Normally though the default (-1) is loaded automatically so if you have one result with templatesetid -1 then that should be ok.

SELECT * FROM template WHERE title='options'

Here you are looking for the last variable. You should see something like:...."; $WOLresolve = "1"; $WOLrefresh = "60"; $checkmessages = "1";

SELECT * FROM template WHERE title='headinclude'

Again, if you have 4 sets of templates then you should have 4 or 5 results. Make sure what's below is at the end of all templates.

#EEEEFF; } </style> $headnewmsg $headnewpm


If everything checks out ok then we'll have to take a look at where you added the code in the global.php script.
