Love this hack...

The server load has increased maybe threefold. Still barely within limits. Would love to see a dynamic shut off valve for when the load gets to a predefined limit...

Also, would love for this to morph into a IM system, it is so close, and I think that would be huge!!!!

[HaYLaZ]

great

[TeaTree]

I'd just like to say how brilliant I find this hack and how helpful uae was by helping me install when I had a problem-Thanks very much!

[MustangLisa]

This very cool, thank you. It would be nice to have a "Reply" feature when you receive a page.

edit:
same for template "pager_messagelist":

For the Pager message list's page, you will need to edit the templates to change the width and height size, and it is the navbar template and pager_messagelist.

Has anyone else encountered this problem???

I was able to instal this hack successfully on one of my other 3.5.1 forums.

One thing I noticed though is that on the forum where everything works, I must go through a public-html folder to get to my forum folder. On my new forum, the ftp just has a forum folder. Maybe this is the problem??
Any help would be great.
Thanks

PM me an account to your forums with an admin access.

That option is already there, just enable it from the usergroup permissions.

If you are using more than one style, make sure that you upload the icon images to all of your style statusicon's folders.
