Title: Add something to the user information block(solved)
Post by: xxwckdxx on December 03, 2008, 12:52:40 AM

i see the code for how many unread messages but is there a way to make it so if the value is one or more it will display the "new" image next to it? to make it more noticable?

Code: [Select]

if(allowedTo('pm_read'))
echo '
<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/dot.gif" alt="', $txt['sp-dot'], '" /> ', $txt['sp-usertmessage'], ': <a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=pm">' . $context['user']['messages'], '</a><br />
<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/dot.gif" alt="', $txt['sp-dot'], '" /> ', $txt['sp-usernmessage'], ': ' . $context['user']['unread_messages'], '<br /><br />'
thats the code i have copied from the source

Glad that you could get it solved. Would be good if you can share your solution, as other may need this in the future.

if(allowedTo('pm_read'))
echo '
<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/dot.gif" alt="', $txt['sp-dot'], '" /> ', $txt['sp-usertmessage'], ': <a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=pm">' . $context['user']['messages'], '</a><br />
<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/dot.gif" alt="', $txt['sp-dot'], '" /> ', $txt['sp-usernmessage'], ': ' . $context['user']['unread_messages'], '&nbsp';
//Do we have some new pms? Show the newest.
if(!empty($context['user']['unread_messages'])) {
echo '<center><a href="'.$scripturl.'?action=pm" alt="You have recieved a new Private Message"><img src="'.$scripturl.'/newmessage.gif"></a></center>';
}

Code: [Select]

<img src="'.$scripturl.'/newmessage.gif"></a></center>';

to

Code: [Select]

<img src="/newmessage.gif"></a></center>';

for your audible PM are you saying that you added that to your code or you got the Audible PM Mod?

I have the mod but can't get it to work in my custom theme

i downloaded it changed my mind of using that one because it used a flash file for the sound so i added my own code and found a .wav file to use

If and when you get a code block put together that would be great! I'd love to try it.

Thanks in advance.

change the code i gave u to

Code: [Select]

//Do we have some new pms? Show the newest.
if(!empty($context['user']['unread_messages'])) {
echo '<center><a href="'.$scripturl.'?action=pm" alt="You have recieved a new Private Message"><img src="/newmessage.gif"></a></center><EMBED SRC="/gotmail.wav" AUTOSTART="true" HIDDEN="true" LOOP="false">';
}
and then download http://CockerSpanielPad.com/gotmail.zip then put the wav file in the same place as u put newmessage.gif
