TW7S - New Way To Display Notifications (jQuery,CSS,jGrowl) · **Released**: 11-24-2010

Description:
This mod changes the way notifications are displayed. It disables the default dropdown menu listed in the toplinks in the header and uses a free open script called jGrowl to display them on the bottom left of the screen no matter where you are on a page. Helps with people "not noticing" the notifications. Enjoy. TheWindows7Site

Instructions:

1) Upload files in attachment to forum root

2) Open template headinclude

Paste the following code at the bottom

Code:

<!-- TW7S - New Way To Display Notifications (jQuery,CSS,jGrowl) --> 
    <script type="text/javascript" src="jscripts/tw7s_notifications/jquery-1.4.2.js"></script> 
    <script type="text/javascript" src="jscripts/tw7s_notifications/jquery.jgrowl.js"></script> 
    <link href="jscripts/tw7s_notifications/jquery.jgrowl.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
<!-- TW7S - New Way To Display Notifications (jQuery,CSS,jGrowl) -->

3) Open template header

Find the following:

Code:

				<vb:if condition="$notifications_total">
				<li class="popupmenu notifications" id="notifications">
					<a class="popupctrl" href="usercp.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{vb:rawphrase your_notifications}: <span class="notifications-number"><strong>{vb:raw notifications_total}</strong></span></a>
					<ul class="popupbody popuphover">
						{vb:raw notifications_menubits}
					</ul>
				</li>
				<vb:else />
				<li class="popupmenu nonotifications" id="nonotifications">
					<a class="popupctrl" href="usercp.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{vb:rawphrase your_notifications}</a>
					<ul class="popupbody popuphover">
						<li>{vb:rawphrase no_new_messages}</li>
						<li><a href="private.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{vb:rawphrase inbox}</a></li>
					</ul>
				</li>
				</vb:if>

Replace with:

Code:

<!-- TW7S - New Way To Display Notifications (jQuery,CSS,jGrowl) --> 
<vb:if condition="$notifications_total">
<script type="text/javascript">

$.jGrowl('{vb:raw notifications_menubits} <br />You must view your notification(s) before this box will disappear.' , { sticky: true, header : 'New Notification(s)' } );

</script>
</vb:if>

<li><a href="private.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{vb:rawphrase inbox}</a></li>
<!-- TW7S - New Way To Display Notifications (jQuery,CSS,jGrowl) -->

Done!

Have fun customizing this to fit your needs.

It's probably just me but I can't find anything like that in the header. All I have is

Code:

<div id="pageWrapper">
	<div class="pageLeft"><div class="pageRight"><div class="pageWrap clearfix">
			<div class="above_body"> <!-- closing tag is in template navbar -->
			<div id="header" class="floatcontainer doc_header"><div class="headerWrap clearfix">
				<div class="logoBox">
					<vb:if condition="$stylevar['titleimage']"><a name="top" href="{vb:link forumhome}"><img src="{vb:stylevar titleimage}" alt="{vb:rawphrase x_powered_by_vbulletin, {vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}}" /></a></vb:if>
				</div>
				<div class="headerBox">
					<div class="bannerBox">
						{vb:raw ad_location.global_header1}
						{vb:raw ad_location.global_header2}
					</div>
				</div>
				<vb:if condition="$vboptions['enablefacebookconnect']">
				<div class="cvb_facebook">
					<ul>
						{vb:raw facebook_header}
					</ul>
				</div>
				</vb:if>
			</div></div>

Code:

<li class="popupmenu notifications" id="notifications">
