Name: Hide AdminCP vB News table if all news are dismissed - Version: 3.6.100
Description:
This modification will hide the "vBulletin news table" in the AdminCP if all news are dismissed.
To clarify the goal of this modification I can say: By default when you dismiss all vBulletin news in your AdminCP, there will be still an empty table showing just the phrase "Show All News" ONLY (See the attached image). Some webmasters hope if this table be hidden as soon as there no new vBulletin News. That's exactly what this modification do.
1st Screen shot: The vB News Table before dismissing news.
2nd Screen shot: The vB News Table after dismissing news.
This modification will hide that table shown in the second Screen shot.
Of course the "vB News Table" will appear again if there is any new items to display.
Compatible with: All 3.6.x/3.7.x/3.8.x vBulletin versions.

Replace it with the following code:

var g;
var news_id_extra = '';
var visible_messages_extra = false;
for (g = 0; g < news_items.length; g++)
{
news_id_extra = news_items[g].getElementsByTagName('guid')[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
if (PHP.in_array(news_id_extra, dismissed_news) == -1)
{
visible_messages_extra = true;
}
}
if (news_items.length && visible_messages_extra)
