Any updates? :)

The attached has the AOL "you got mail" voice over worked in

It also has the path: /private.php

Hopefully works fine and what you asked for :)

So what code do I use?:confused: That is just a swf file

Edit template - FORUMHOME

Find

After add
Save template

Upload - the relevant swf to your forum root

remember to change the path to your swf

Ok, I just loaded the file into my root but what do I change the code for "/path-to-your/you-got-mail.swf" ? :confused:

If your forums are

http://www.vdubs-r-us.com/you-got-mail.swf

or
/you-got-mail.swf

then you can put that line of code in

Ok, I got the animation to work and it has the sound of the mailbox, but no "you've got mail".

<a href="http://www.vdubs-r-us.com/you-got-mail.swf" target="_blank">http://www.vdubs-r-us.com/you-got-mail.swf</a>

if it works on the root and server from the link above then you have a flash issue

unless your running ie9 ???

apparently its having flash issues

try the link and does the flash animation work with sound?

Yes, the link works fine. Here is what I have:

ive just joined and sent myself a pm

works fine :)

arrrrrrrrrrrrrr

working in chrome / FFox / Opera / Safari not ie

give me a min

change the path to the full url

http://www.vdubs-r-us.com/you-got-mail.swf

to see if this works

Still just the mailbox and the "rubbing metal" sound. lol.. Since you are a member of my site now, just go to the main chat there instead of filling up your space here.. ;)

strange its working in root ....

working in safari, chrome, ffox opera .............

ill work on the problem unless there a conflict from ie with another mod

ive tried it on your site in all browsers


ill reload in another flash file give me a min

try the new swf and overwrite

no, still does the same. I am putting the file in the root dir... I am sure.. :confused:

yes but you can try it elswhere providing the path is correct

the file works in the browser and also works in all other browsers on your site !!!

I checked so maybe try changing the location:)

Maybe it is just my computer...lol.. I tried to change file locations and still nothing. :(

Please,

Is that you can make me a message without sound for the you-got-mail.swf ?

I have it working except for when I click on it, it takes me to
http://www.couponwithcents.com/forum/private.php

Not Found

The requested URL /forum/private.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Sorry for the late reply but use the attatched swf and overwrite it

this will direct to the path for you

the attached has no sound

hi is it possible to do me one where the path to private.php is www.yoursite.com/private.php

for the you-got-mail ...thanks

Try the attatched in this post its directed to /private.php

im assuming this is yours also

please try that first

regards
Dave

Thank you but I can't read message. I have "Error 404"

Thanks..............

Okay I got the code entered in Forumhome..

{vb:raw footer}
<!-- mail -->
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo[pmunread]">
<a style="display:scroll;position:fixed;bottom:-40px;right:-20px;" title="Click Here - new message!">
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="/aspenandvolare/you-got-mail.swf"
width="148" height="119">
<param name="movie" value="/aspenandvolare/you-got-mail.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high"/>
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"/>
</object>
</vb:if>
<!-- end of mail -->

Where as my forum path to private.php is aspenandvolare/private.php.
Don't know if the you-got-mail.swf is going to work.

My apolagies for late reply

please use the attached swf which has the path to your private.php

Hopefully this is ok

Dave

Alright Dave I will give it a try tonight.

Okay I uploaded the new you-got-mail.swf to the aspenandvolare root folder. It did not work and this is what I noticed. With a new message the forum will load and then you will see the spinning wheel in the window tab. At the bottom of the window you will see the progress bars get up to but never pass the four bars. With no new message the forum will load fast and will complete within a few seconds. I had the code not installed in one of forum styles and I verified the forum would load complete even with a private message notification. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Eric

Hi Eric

PM me your board details with admin ill sort it tonight

Dave

Hi Eric

I have changed the coding to suit your site - the mod now works fine

I have added it to the cms page also

Hope this all works fine now

Regards
Dave

Yeap Thanks Dave. I see you changed the code to point it to the root directory. Marked installed.

How do you add this to the CMS and Blog pages? what templates do you need to edit.

Simply add

after

to the:

vbcms_page

ps changing the paths as normal

Just giving you something to think about. I don't get the animation unless I have the pop notification on and click forum or the home page. Is there a way to change it to come on automatically without the pop up notification?

I will look into it asap

Thanks :)
