No support by the author.

This is a very simple hack, yet I kinda like it.
Don't you just hate it when you write a long PM to someone, send it, and he doesn't even notice it?!

NO MORE!

Install this very easy hack and no one will be able to ignore the PM again.

This is almost just a template hack, but since it does involve editing a file and adding 4 lines of PHP code, it qualifies as a hack.
Sue me.

Anyway, what does this hack do?
Whenever you come to the forum main page, and you have any unread messages (even if they aren't new), the category strip that says "Private Messages" will blink.
Simple, but effective.

To see a demo of this, just send yourself a PM and see what happens. I'm sure you'll like it.

Installing this will take you 2 minutes if not less, it's very very simple.
I also don't expect too many support requests.

Anyway, have fun!

VolsReport, this hack works perfect on 2.0.3. I just installed it on my board & i use 2.0.3.

Firefly, thanks for the small but neat hack.

Hey T-Dogg!

Hack works nicely...flashes when it should, and not when it shouldnt. However, I have now lost the standard pop-up alerts.
Any ideas?

AM I correct in assuming that this hack works in conjunction with the pop-up notices and it is not intended to replace them?

Nope, should work nicely with them.
Considering the pop up is controlled in global.php and my hack in index.php, I don't know how it could conflict with it.

I can easily use this feature in a non-vb page, however, it continues to blink (even if I don't have any unread messages). What do I have to do to fix this problem?

I like the idea of this hack.

There is one bug with it though.

When you have no PM it doesn't flash (correct)
When you get PM it flashes (correct)
When you read PM it stops flashing (correct)
When you delete your PM it starts flashing (wrong)

When you delete your PM it should not flash any more, this is where the bug lives.

If someone is able to squash this bug please let me know what you had to do.

TIA
