How can I send a Welcome PM to visitors??

Yea I posted the code on http://www.truckmountforums.com/forums but it's only left of the header, I am not sure how to put it anywhere else. I just copy/pasted the code you gave me directly into the header file at the end.

You'll need to get an image that flashes then use some code like

<div align="right" class="smallfont"><a href="register.php"><img src="/images/flashing.gif" border="0">Your text</a></div>

Okay I got that last code, so how can I embed both of the codes you gave me together to only show to unregistered users?

The 1st code allowed me to do that, but the new code you gave me shows to everyone.

<if condition="$show[guest]">
<div align="right" class="smallfont"><a href="register.php"><img src="/images/flashing.gif" border="0">Your text</a></div>
</if>

Hi Guys, what a great idea, i'm adding it to my site too, I've added the above codes but the flashing gif appears below the writing :erm: How can i get it to appear right after rather than below, here the code i have so far...

<DIV ALIGN=RIGHT>
<if condition="$show['registerbutton']">
You have a new PM! Click here <a href="$vboptions[bburl]/register.php$session[sessionurl_q]" rel="nofollow">here</a> to read it!
<if condition="$show[guest]">
<div align="right" class="smallfont"><a href="register.php"><img src="http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr114/ukbusinesslive/newpm.gif" border="0"></a>
</div>
</if>
</if>

You want to make sure that your link is on the same line as the other text. And you only need to check for one of the conditionals.

Try this instead (not tested but should work and point you in the right direction)...

<if condition="$show['registerbutton']"><div align="right">You have a new PM! Click here <a href="$vboptions[bburl]/register.php$session[sessionurl_q]" rel="nofollow">here</a> to read it! <a href="$vboptions[bburl]/register.php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr114/ukbusinesslive/newpm.gif" border="0"></a></div></if>

$ad_location[ad_header_end]

Works a treat Thanks again, I've just enabled sending newbies PM's, so let see how long it'll be to get my first member using this method
