Mini Mods - Simple Notification

Simple Unread PM/etc Notification
Tested with vBulletin 3.0.x, 3.5.x, 3.6.x, 3.7.x

Very easy modification. Although it isn't as fancy as some, this template modification is meant for those that just want a simple and attractive notification that is... well... noticeable. It should be able to easily integrate into your design as well as easy to install.

I have a User CP Modification coming in the next month or so, which is of course more complex than this modification.

Release (final 1.0.0): Marked as New
+ Displays only if the Member has a Unread PM
+ Tell the Member how many pms are unread.
+ Adds "s" if more than one PM is unread.
+ Provides link to private.php for fast access.
+ Is displayed (if active) on virtually every forum page.

Upcoming Features: Marked as New
+ Display New Friend Requests
+ Display New Visitor Messages

Instructions/Installation: Very Easy

In the Style Manager, open the template "navbar" and find the following code:

<!-- / nav buttons bar -->

<br />

Add this code directly below:

<!-- PM Notification -->
<if condition="$bbuserinfo[pmunread]">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" align="center">
<tr>
            <td class="thead"><a href="private.php"><div style="text-decoration:none;">You currently have $bbuserinfo[pmunread] Unread Private Message<if condition="$bbuserinfo[pmunread] >= 2">s</if>! Click Here!</div></a></td>
        </tr>
</table>
<br />
</if>
<!-- / PM Notification -->

------------------------------------
And then Save, as you're done! Enjoy the the simple notifier!

"Otikeu" is on an abandoned license and I have taken over this modification. Please click "Install" to be notified when the next versions are available.

Thanks. This Inspired me to modify the header a bit more. Everything on one line and centered, navigation above it and to the left. Great mod!

I placed it right below too.

As you can see, the table is layed over the main nav menu and adds this
huge purple table cell below it

I got same problem! Please let me know will this be fixed or not uninstalling for now!

Perfect, just what I was looking for. Works great and it makes people actually realize that they have a message waiting for them.
