New PM button in messagelist

This is a modification to show 'send pm' button in messagelist -- screenshot attached.


Style Manager -> Edit Templates -> pm_messagelist

Find:

<if condition="$show['pagenav']">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" style="margin-bottom:3px">
<tr valign="bottom">
<if condition="$pagenav"><td align="$stylevar[right]">$pagenav</td></if>
</tr>
</table>
</if>

Replace it with:

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" style="margin-bottom:3px">
<tr valign="bottom">
<td><a href="private.php?do=newpm"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/sendpm.gif" alt="$vbphrase[send_new_message]" border="0" /></a></td>
 <if condition="$pagenav">
<td align="$stylevar[right]">$pagenav</td></if>
</tr>
</table>

Then save.



You may change $stylevar[imgdir_button]/sendpm.gif to any other image.

It's the original sendpm image that comes with vBulletin package. You can download the PSD from your vBulletin's members area.
