Hey all,

What is Menu Alert?
This modification, installs an alert that is displayed globally across your vBulletin forum.
It is completely admin controllable, and simple to install.

What can I do using Menu Alert?
The features of Menu Alert include:
  • Alert Menu Switch - Ability to turn your alert on/off.
  • Title/Content Change - Ability to change the title and content of your alert.
  • Title/Content Colour Change - Ability to change the colour of both your title and content of your alert.
  • Marquee Switch - Ability to turn on a 'Marquee'. This turns your alert into a 'Marquee'.
  • Marquee Direction - Ability to change the direction in which the marquee turns.
  • Title Prefix - Ability to change the prefix of your title.
  • HTML Ready - You can use HTML in this release!

How long will it take me to install Menu Alert?
Menu Alert is easier to install than any of my previous modifications! Just one product, will install:
1 Template
1 Plugin
1 Admin Controllable Menu
All you must do is insert $menualert into your navbar template and it's fully installed!

Nice hack

And isn't there an hook location between navbar and forums? Then it could be a product without template modifications

nice hack, installed.

feature suggestions:
ability to use/store several messages
add slot machine type scrolling so that when used in conjunction with the above feature it would rotate between one message and another by flipping up.
ability to point the hack to a forum/s to pull the latest threads from it
ability to turn it off by usergroups

It's good. But, I have a suggestion.

I think it's hard to read the marquee, especially when you run your screen resolution high as I do. It doesn't scroll across the screen smoothly, and you can't stop it by mousing over it.

Might I suggest some way to stop the scroll when you mouse over it, or, enable some way to adjust the speed? The slot machine effect mentioned above is a good suggestion also.

Nice work.

How does this hack differ from the Global Anouncement? It's bacicly the same but just in a different location?

Great Hacks by the way
