I'm running V3.6.5. I was using the default style and everything worked great..

today I installed a new skin. I made sure all the templates were updated with the additional code (I checked it numerous time). My user are showing they have a page, but it will not pop up. If they switch back to the default style the message appears immediately.

The skin I installed was BlackandBlue which I downloaded from this board.

Any ideas.

Try removing the template edits from the postbits and you may find it works. I found that was the only problem I had with a skin I installed.

I wish I'd read this earlier. Today I printed out every template that is used by Pager for both my default style and new style and reviewed each one Line by Line.

In my default style I never changed the Postbit_Legacy but did change the Postbit template. I copied the new code in the Postbit template, but I must have deleted some of the information which was above.

I corrected this and it's working....

You're smart TTG...you figured out it was something that was optional...I'm impressed.

I'm having this same problem. I'm using the default template on 3.6.5 and everything is uploaded and all templates have been modified correctly.

What happens is when I go to a users profile and click "Send a pager message to *user*" a window pops up with who's online and then another window with a page overlays that. The main problem though is that as soon as I type a letter it immediately dissapears, no matter how much I type. If I try to hit the page button I get an error telling me that my message is too short (because all of my text dissapeared). This is my only obstacle right now and I'd like to know how to get over it. Thanks!

If i remember correctly that's being caused by having a limit on the total character of that message. Probably it's set to zero right now.
