Notifications

I have noticed in some mods a notification link instead of a pm link and I like the notifications, especially of new profile comments. That would keep us from having to click on our profile or user C P to see any new comments. The problem is, I can't find where on the admin CP the notifications options are.

I tried to find it on my own and decided to just ask for help.

Thanks!

You have no control over the notifications.

it is not a mod friend, its the default feature in vB 3.7.x

I have vb 3.7 and realize it's not a mod but I don't have it showing so I must have it turned off, I just don't know where it is to turn it on. Does that make sense?

there's no option to turn it ON/OFF..

you must be using an old skin then.. try reverting your navbar template..

also notifications link appear only when you actually have received a notification like a PM or a visitor message.

so how are you notified now when somebody sends you a visitor message

I have to check my profile page or my user CP to see if I have a new visitor message.

I'm sorry, I don't know what you mean by old skin. If I revert my navbar template that means I'll lose the edits I made like adding links to the navbar doesn't it?

As you can tell, I am a novice at these things and have only recently begun making changes to our site.

BTW, thank you for your help so far veenu.

do you have this in your navbar template

Code:

<if condition="$show['notifications']">

                        <div><span id="notifications"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[your_notifications]:</a> <strong>$notifications_total</strong></span></div>

                        <script type="text/javascript"> vBmenu.register("notifications"); </script>

                <else /><if condition="$show['pmstats']">

                        <div><phrase 1="$vbphrase[unread_x_nav_compiled]" 2="$vbphrase[total_x_nav_compiled]" 3="$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[private_messages_nav]</phrase></div>

                </if></if>

If not, add it above

Code:

<if condition="$show['pmwarning']">

and then check by messaging yourself !!

Thanks Veenu! :up: I don't know why I took out that code. I'm guessing it went with something else I installed. Maybe the moods manager? Who knows, I added links to the navbar, I'm sure it was my error.

Now I see notifications but the drop down and the link for the notifications doesn't work. Where would I need to go to fix that?

do you have this in navbar under , if not add it.

Code:

<if condition="$notifications_total">

        <!-- notifications menu -->

        <div class="vbmenu_popup" id="notifications_menu" style="display:none">

                <table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">

                <tr><td class="thead" colspan="2">$vbphrase[your_notifications]</td></tr>

                $notifications_menubits

                </table>

        </div>

        <!-- / notifications menu -->

        </if>
