Its a general message, no set board, and I've tried safari, chrome, and firefox all and no luck.

Try setting the message for logged in users - Then select the board/s you want the message to be displayed in

Then click to save changes

Already tried logged in memebers, and I want it to be a global message, not a board specific message.

Have you tried deleting the plugin and data and then starting again?

Hi Peter

solariamock.freemessageboards.com/

If you scroll down to under the red message there's a message in the theme colours.

Q1: I've put tables in that message and for some reason there seems to be this huge blank above them? There are no empty lines in the message box in the plugins setting Weyrling Lessons is right on the top line. Any idea how I can get rid of these?

Q2: I've not entered a title so the titlebar doesn't display which is cool. Is there a way to give it rounded corners/1px border to match everything else?

Q3: Can the message boxes be made collapsible? (The least important question)

Thanks!

Hi,

1.  It's probably due to a lot of blank space / new lines with the content.

2.  Can't see why not, will see about supporting it for the next release.

3.  It's on the list, probably won't make it in the next release though.

Where do I find these lines? They're not where you enter the message.

When I had two tables, the start tag of the second on the same line as the end tag of the first there was a big space between them as well as the one above the first table.

Sent from phone, please forgive typos!

I'm still having issues with this plug-in. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, but the account specific messages still aren't showing up, just the general ones.

[rodesigner]

i love this plug-in so far,, it just might replace 5 things i use on present pbv4 boards,
the things i really would be using this for is messages in several ways.
(and maybe i just not doing it right)

check ok 1. guest (= not bothering/showing to all or any other registered members, ranks or groups)
ck ok 2. all registered members (= all can see but not guest)
ch ok 3. User Specific Messages (=individual member a personal message at top of home page of forum)

but i also have 2 member ranks, and 8 member groups and i am not sure how to have some groups/ranks see messages just for that rank or group. while not showing to other ranks/groups.

is there a way that the plug-in can auto capture all ranks and group names in the drop down, or how do i enter each correctly?

here might be just me- operator errors??
i tried and it let me add i think 3 more, but then wouldnt take more. it also didnt seem to work, so i may have errored in trying to enter the rank or group properly.
for us forum challenged people, most of the hint info "helped", but still had me a little bit feeling like i was guessing in a few spots. so maybe i am guessing wrong?

please send help lol,(take your time) i have several runescape clans counting on little old me only, to get thier proboard forums ready for upgrade to v5. guess its better if only i pull my hair out panicing, instead of several people.

I love this plug-in Peter great job! It integrates into the site so well very nice!

I have one request/suggestion though. As-is the only way I see to stop a message from displaying is to click the x and remove it, right? Could you add an option (checkbox maybe) to Display YES or NO, which would hide that specific message? that way we don't loose any html code in that box that we might want to just change a message on later.

But, I love it!

Outstanding!  You're the man!

One other question about it.  Is there any way to add the standard Text Formatting menu to be used for Message Body text?

Oops, I lied, one more.  Text wrapping in the Message Body box?

Had this plugin working fine... But for some reason it's decided to not work... No new plugins loaded or anything else changed... Anyone any idea what could be up?

Could be a change on ProBoards end, hard to know.

When I find time, I'll look into it.

Any insight on the next version Peter
