Whole Site Alert

[iLogan]

You know in DJ panels you can send out a whole site alert that comes up with a popup box for all users how would I do one for a forum?

[today]

Insert the code which would be used on the site into the header, headinclude or global template.

Though i strongly advise against the idea, pop up's are the worse thing and will pup guests off your site.

Have you got a link to this code?

Can't find it anywhere.

Well, if you wanted it to show every time you visit a page, this would do (warning: annoying).


<script>
alert("Message here");
</script>

[iLogan]

No, I would like a script that I can define from the admin panel.

So admincp> alert> blaa >> site: blaa

Surely that wouln't work because don't you need auto refresh on?

You'd have to be a half decent coder to be able to code it into admincp, so its not really worth trying.

i dnt see the point in site alerts it just makes the webpage laggy and annoying

Not 100% Ross, It can be done pretty easy, the page making anyhow, the inputting and saving the settings maybe not.

Though if you do it, you'll get 90% people leave. lol.
