Play Sound When Private Message Received - the Amy Way

This hack is based off of one by EvilLS1 who also kindly contributed the wav file.

His hack plays a sound when the user visits the forumhome page if they have a new PM.

My version plays the sound on any page much the same as the PM popup works. In addition, my version has a usercp option for members to turn off sounds if they wish.

It's a rather easy hack to install.

Amy

That's because I forgot another step in the documentation. I am not a night person. Gotta quit releasing these things at night.

In youre header template, you need to put :

Code:
$headsound
I put it at the very top of my header template.

Off to update the documentation.

Amy


You must mean the headinclude template

It's actually working in my header. Well, at least we have a couple of different options to try

partang2, Here is how I would go about debugging.

In global.php comment out the code that resets the pmsound field to 1. Then send yourself a PM and make sure the database value is getting set to 2 when you do so.

If it isn't, your problem is in private.php.

If it is, then your problem is most likely that you either haven't created or called the templates. If you haven't uploaded the sound file, you will probably see an error. I did. However, make sure that the wav file is uploaded in binary format where it belongs.

Amy
