PM Alert (SIMPLE) NO IMAGE!

If you want to display:

You have a pm, waiting to be read.

when a user has a new private message:

Just add this to the bottom of your header template

PHP Code:

<center>
<font size="4" color="red" style="bold">
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['pmunread']">You have a private message, waiting to be read.</if></font>
</center> 

See the attachment for example



This mod works on all versions of VB

Could this be modified to change the background color of the Welcome Sprint area on the top right?

I hope you don't mid but I changed the code a bit so you can click it now when you see it. It will take you to your pm box.

<center>
<a href="http://www.yourdomain.com/private.php" target="_blank"><font size="4" color="red" style="bold">
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['pmunread']">You have a private message, waiting to be read.</if></font></a>
</center>

Change www.yourdomain.com to your sites address

Thanks this hack is great.

I should also add that you have to add /forums/ or what ever extention you have your forums in. Some people have http://www.yourdomain.com/forums/private.php for an example. if your site isn't set to direct to your forums like I have above (http://www.yourdomain.com/private.php) then change the path like this last example I gave. most people can change the green section to what ever they have.

I hope I have not confused to many poeple cause I don't normally add to things so I have no Idea how to get my point accross. lol
