It's already there, and you can define number of user selection they can send to.
It's under vB Pager Usergroup Permissions
Maximum Recipients to Send Pagers at a time.

I just spent the last 45 minutes going through everything, even checked everything in the xml file to make sure it was all there and added correctly in my forums. I went through the installation 3 times, step by step. Still gives me the same thing. :disappointed: I can't find what is causing this

[DaFire]

I have some users I send an pager who don't get a pager window and if they click on the "Pager Messages" link they get an empty inbox althougt it says 1 new page message on the forum homepage

One of them uses IE, I tried IE myself and had no problem.. I try to get more information from them.

suggestion: the export as txt messages of the inbox/outbox is great, but it would be cool to export the messages i received and sent to a specific user .. so you get kind of a chat history

[redundanthost]

ok uhmm im testing a new forum with vbpager. It doesnt auto pop up unless i refresh the page or click a link on the forum or whatever. But for the tester friend of mine it pops up without clicking anything (note he doesnt have an admin account if thats got something to do with it)

[interceptor]

works great (3.5.3)
Installed

[SparKeh]

A user on my forum has problems using the pager, I've logged into his account and it works fine.. I received the pages he didn't get etc. Is there something in his browser settings he could maybe check/change?

[mikeB]

I figured out my IE error ---

it was the calling of an EXTERNAL CSS file
once I took that out of the header and made it rely on VB entirely - it's smooth!

all fixed!

That's not showing up on my forum?? Can you give me the code I need to put it in there?

[.Tim]

I searched and didn't find any reference to this (maybe I missed it) but it would be nice if this used the buddy list already available in vbulletin.

[Stoneyreef]

When setting up the usergroup based permissions, have all the boxes, and check boxes but no text. It is all blank.

Also not showing up in the user control panel, nor in the user profile, nor in the quick links.

Where did I go wrong?

running 3.5.0
