Hey all,
I looked at putting it by PMs and while it is possible it is a lot of extra work. While I started looking at the code I had a thought.
As much as I like mods the reality of the situation is this- I think this is much more gracefully handled by the vBulletin Notices System.
My suggestion:
Go to Admin CP -> Notices -> Add New Notice
Title: Editor Notice
Notice HTML:
HTML Code:
<strong>Possible bug when replying to posts or Private Messages, please read.</strong>
<br />
A bug in newer versions of Chrome and Opera browsers (and possibly others) may cause your space bar not to work when replying to posts, private messages or other content on the forum. If you find your space bar isn't working simply press your <strong><Enter></strong> key a couple times inside the post and the space bar will work again. We hope this will get fixed in a future update of the browser.<br / >
To close this message click the "X" on the top right corner.
Active, Persistent, and Dismissible all set to yes.
No reason to show it to guests they can't reply anyway so check the box for "User does not belong to usergroup" and select
Unregistered / Not Logged In as the usergroup not to display it to and save changes.
I implemented this on my own site. I kept the mod installed as an extra reminder but the notice is good info for everyone. They can dismiss it and never see it again but they (may) remember to just hit enter and be done with it should they get the problem.
