I can't view messages, as I am a guest.  Can you show a screen shot of the issue?

Here is the shot Peter what I had in mind was to greet each member individually as they logged in

Trying to add some CSS boxes but the CSS code is not working:

<!div="style:background-position:center center;border-radius:22px;height:50px;border:5px solid #85C451;text-shadow:1px 0.4px #000000;width:222px;margin:0;background-color:#63095a;background-image:url('http://sprites.pokecheck.org/s/447.gif');">


<!/div>
That code should give you the little box in my signature with the jumping Riolu.
Can anyone help me please?

Hi, Peter

I have the updated version 3.3.1
I see there an option to click and hide messages by clicking on the eye icon
Once a message has been clicked on to hide it - How would the user get the message to show again
I'm using firefox and the message disappears completely - How would the user see the message again
 - if they wanted?

Just a little confused with that option
I thought it was an Hide/Show option when you click on the eye icon
If you enable a unique key for each message

Thanks  Steve

EDIT - Its OK I found it - On the bottom of the forum on the left it shows - Show messages
You click on that and the messages will appear again

I think there should be a short explanation on your download page - On how to hide/show the messages

Peter, is there a way to create a link to a specific thread in the message area?

Try clicking on the GEAR ICON to copy the url link of the thread

Then try this in the message area of the Global Message area -

 <a href="ADD LINK TO THREAD HERE">ADD LINK TITLE HERE</a>

Worked perfectly, thanks! I was using "[]" instead of "<>" which is why it wasn't working.

Hey Peter, how would I go about making the text smaller in the body of the message box?

Hi, Try this

In the message area on your global message box = <font size=2>ADD TEXT HERE</font>
Set the size=2 font size to a higher number or lower number that suits best

Hi Peter, I installed the 3.3.1 version from the library and it doesn't appear to work.
I have set it so it only shows for two users, and on the main page only. Yet nothing is showing.



Knowing me, I have not edited something correctly, but I am pretty sure I have set everything needed.
I have Yootil installed, at the very top of all plugins.

I am using the latest Chrome.


Edit:
Did the noob thing of not leaving an url, apologies: smangii.proboards.com/

I done a test in Chrome, seems Ok for me.

Can you set that message to show for me as well on your forum (user: pixeldepth)?

[Stinky666]

Done, Peter

This one is a tough one to debug because of the way I coded the plugin (I is stupid ).

But yes, no message for me either. Trying to pinpoint where the issue is by writing manual code in the console. I may have to give you a dev version that logs to the console so I can figure it out. I'll try a little longer and see.
