How long ago did you first install this hack SMO?

HI Ted....I think when it was first released.

Is there a means with this great mod of making a possibly cookie driven variable display, specifically:

1. An about us registeration dialogue box like shown in the original mod description for the diving site, but this only shows for new users who have not completed registration.

2. If they have already signed up and confirmed, they enver see the above box, but see a smaller, different dialogue box that says this; "Hello (username), it appears that you have not posted on our forums in several weeks, blah blah.

That way those already signed up don't have to always look at the larger site description box, and those who haven't signed up won't see the smaller "you haven't posted.." dialgoue box.

Hi there!

I installed this mod and followed the directions exactly as I should have (or so I thought) but I am not getting any header at all? Is there any suggestion as to what I may be doing wrong? I did go to the vB options and enable everything?

I'm not good at all with code - could I have possibly missed something there?

I went to Header and added the $welcomeheaders at the end but I'm still not seeing anything? Was I supposed to add more than that?

I guess I'm not seeing what this did for me at this point, nor do I know how to customize it for my forum?

Thanks a bunch- I'm looking forward to using this!

Thanks and clicked install. ;)

THANKS!

Are you viewing the board as a guest or any other group that would see a message? Have you enabled the messages from your Admin Control panel --> Options --> Welcome Header system?

If the user is registered and logged in, they won't see the message. If they are not logged in your message should encourage them to do so.

This is also a native function of the addon. There are messages for not having posted in X days, never having posted, being unconfirmed and for all usergroups. Each message can be turned off/on as per your needs.

Thanks. For some reason I did not receive a notification that you replied to this.

I did not view it as a guest - should I try that? I thought this would also show something at the top of each page for all registered users as well?

This is what I have set under options (sorry it's so big -and this is posting an error message, my cp does not show this). I can't figure out where I customize it specific to my forum?

Well, I tried copying it but it's not coming out correctly. I do have it enabled in any case.

I'd suggest you review the documentation or options to understand what exactly this hack does -- you also need to customize the hack or you'll end up with messages that just don't relate to your site enough to bring you the results they can.

But to answer your question, if you're a confirmed member, and have posted within 2 weeks you won't see a message unless a global message is setup.
