Well' yeah, but what if you want to send a pager message to an offline member :ermm:


Thanks dude
Okay, if you still got the old pager table in your database, installing this version should not harm your database, but I suggest that you drop the old pager table from your database, drop the old pager column from the user table, then install this one.
And no, it will not drop the previuse tables automatically, cos table name has changed in this version.

You're right seen my other post?

Will the install of this version interfere with the database entries from the old version? Or will this install automatically drop the previous tables?

Looking forward to installing this. Hope you are well

Installed flawlessly without having to remove old database entries or templates.

Appears to function well so far. Superb work Uae.

Thanks!

I was honestly going to create something like this.. Or atleast attempt it..

Great work! And thanks for making it so I don't have to sit down and learn more code.

[d8tabyte]

I'm afraid until this gets worked out I have to uninstall - I can't get the paging feature to work at all.

[KTBleeding]

I have an issue, I think???

My popups don't look like this:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...chmentid=40479

They don't have the "reply" option, but I have the permissions set correctly.. did I forget something?


EDIT:

Nevermind, I see you need to have the option "Can Use Allow Reply Option When Paging Another User" for all the groups you want to reply to.

But I am having issues with duplicates.. I think I've been sent the same "pager" four times now..

Big thanks for this phantastic hack. :up:

I started to translate the phrases in german for myself.
Hope that is ok?
If interested, i could do that as xml if someone give me a little assistance to do it the right way.

Sure can be, but I don't think I want to go that far, at least not now :ermm:
