I made a cleaner blinking PM notifier
 
1 Attachment(s)
I just finished a small template mod that I think makes a very clean addition
to the PM notification system.

I liked the other blinking notifiers out there, the bar and the table blinker
but they were to a little to bold or intrusive on my light layout so as an
alternative I created a smaller text based blinker which seems to ask for
attention without compromising my layout.

I attached a copy if anyone is interested in the code changes I would be
more than happy to share.

Nice job!
I like this one more then the one used here on vBulletin.org :)

miz 12-24-2004 02:24 PM
looks great if you will share will be appricated

JohnBee 12-24-2004 05:46 PM
Okay but I can't release a full release typa thing cause i'm way to lame of a coder
for that. So I'll paste my code changes here instead.

JohnBee 12-24-2004 05:54 PM
I'm not 100% there is anything else to note for this template mod
so if anyone tries and it doesnt work, I guess I can install on a
fresh vBB to test it and post correction. Otherwise I think this is it.

Code:
//Placed in NAVBAR header section //

<script language="JavaScript">

var on_color = "#FF0000";
var off_color = "#FFFFFF";
var blink_onoff = 1;
var blinkspeed= 500;
function blink()
{
        if( blink_onoff == 1) {
          document.all.blink.style.color = on_color;
          blink_onoff = 0;
        }
        else {
          document.all.blink.style.color = off_color;
          blink_onoff = 1;
        }
}
</script>



// Replaced my original NAVBAR pmunread template section with //

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['pmunread']">
                                <phrase 1="<font id=blink>$vbphrase[unread_x_nav_compiled]</font>" 2="$vbphrase[total_x_nav_compiled]" 3="$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[private_messages_nav]</phrase>
               
                <script>
document.all.blink.style.color = off_color;
setInterval("blink()",blinkspeed);
                </script><br>
            <else />

                                <phrase 1="$vbphrase[unread_x_nav_compiled]" 2="$vbphrase[total_x_nav_compiled]" 3="$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[private_messages_nav]</phrase><br></if>


// all done //

T3MEDIA 12-24-2004 10:35 PM
What version you have? NAVBAR pmunread? Where is that?

JohnBee 12-25-2004 12:00 AM
Sorry vB 3.0.3

Code:

// in your NAVBAR template find //

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid']">
       
                <td class="alt2" valign="top" nowrap="nowrap">


// Right under that add //


<if condition="$bbuserinfo['pmunread']">
                                <phrase 1="<font id=blink>$vbphrase[unread_x_nav_compiled]</font>" 2="$vbphrase[total_x_nav_compiled]" 3="$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[private_messages_nav]</phrase>
               
                <script>
document.all.blink.style.color = off_color;
setInterval("blink()",blinkspeed);
                </script><br>
            <else />

                                <phrase 1="$vbphrase[unread_x_nav_compiled]" 2="$vbphrase[total_x_nav_compiled]" 3="$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[private_messages_nav]</phrase><br></if>

// all done //
That Should be it :)

Is it XHMTL 1.0 ??

JohnBee 12-25-2004 04:58 AM
It's just java scripting as far as I know. I tested it with ie, firefox and opera
it worked with all of the above.

Scooterpig 05-11-2005 07:39 AM
Has anyone got this working cause I can't figure out the - //Placed in NAVBAR header section // bit as to where the code goes and if the 2 posted changes are both to be done or just the 1 ????????

JohnBee 05-20-2005 06:28 AM
One easy way to work this into your layout is to place the code without overwritting
anything, yes you will have multiple instances of PM messages but... it will allow you
to work it into your navbar without compromising or messing up your layout.

You place that code anywheres between your navbar template <head> </head>
section.

Works great on 3.0.7.

And it intergrated well into the templates.

JohnBee 05-20-2005 09:55 AM
glad you like it ;)

Fusion.nl 05-23-2005 02:26 PM
Nice, just the thing i wanted, since the sound notivication on pm was a bit over the top imho.

But...it doesnt work in Firefox. At least not with me. With IE it works fine, but who uses that browser these days anyway. :rolleyes:

You seem to have the same problem. It also doesnt work in Firefox. :ermm:

JohnBee 05-23-2005 04:51 PM
it works fine in FF i brows the forums with FF all the time and get the blinking
PM line.

dbl check your code and script tag placement

I know something better. (in not a codebuff, more like a vB haxer. :cheeky: )

Template style "navbar". (as it currently is, so after your modifications)

Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function log_out()
{
        ht = document.getElementsByTagName("html");
        ht[0].style.filter = "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(grayscale=1)";
        if (confirm('$vbphrase[sure_you_want_to_log_out]'))
        {
                return true;
        }
        else
        {
                ht[0].style.filter = "";
                return false;
        }
}
//-->

<!--
var on_color = "#FF0000";
var off_color = "#FFFFFF";
var blink_onoff = 1;
var blinkspeed= 500;
function blink()
{
        if( blink_onoff == 1) {
          document.all.blink.style.color = on_color;
          blink_onoff = 0;
        }
        else {
          document.all.blink.style.color = off_color;
          blink_onoff = 1;
        }
}
//-->
</script>
