I want to make a new notice for my forum, that appears for Fleet Command (our name for the Founders) when a report is filed in the Reports forum. I just don't know how to make it work though. Anyone got a helping hand?

So basically a notice at the top of the forum for one group if there is a new post in a certain forum? I think you'd have to write a plugin (I'd suggest just doing this on the main page, so use the forumhome_start hook location):

PHP Code:


			
if (is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo,array(x, y))) 
{
run a query to see if there are new posts in the forum
end result would be to set a variable/flag that does *something* (puts a note?) at the top of the index page
}

No, the notice would only display when a new report is filed.
And I'm not good with plugins, if someone could write it for me?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
