Blinking PM message like here

OK I've probably missed it somehow but I can't find it using search either here or at vBT but I'm sure it has been released.

Can anyone either provide the link to the release or rumble up some code that will work quick for me?

Cheers.

I wuold also like to see the hack that this board uses.

Me 2 :)

EDIT: ahh this should be easy... no need for javascript as well...

Here it is by me :) :
Open up the navbar template and find:

HTML Code:

<td class="alt2" valign="top" nowrap="nowrap">

Replace with:

HTML Code:

  <td  valign="top" class="alt2" <if condition="$bbuserinfo['pmunread']">style="background-image: url(images/pmbg.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat;"</if> nowrap="nowrap" >

Replace the pmbg.gif with your image of use this one if its allowed..

I thought I would play with this too, when I ran a UBB Treads board it had the cool flashing mail icon (it's animated) and I missed that so I added it back with a simple conditional.

Find this section:

PHP Code:


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

        </div>

        </td>

Add this right under:

PHP Code:


		
			
    <if condition="$bbuserinfo['pmunread']">

                 Your blinking image or whatever goes here

    </if>

here are a couple others to try. I like the blinking PM thingy, but I always thought it was weird how it says "PRIVATE MESSAG" and the E is cut off, so I redid the text sizing and spacing to be a bit easier to read.

Once installed, you need to edit the "global.php" file. Comment out the line that reads:

eval('$footer .= "' . fetch_template('pm_popup_script') . '";');

how
eval('$footer .= "' . fetch_template('pm_popup_script') . '";'); gif file exsample pls
