Not Supported Template Edits Re-usable Code  

I've had this little trick installed on my forum and its bought me a few decent registrations as a result.

As so many people where asking how its done, i thought i'd post it here for ease, giving credit to the guys below.

Credit to this edit, goes to KW802 and FRDS who made it so

What does it do??

When an unregistered person views your forum, they will see what appears to be an unread PM notification, with flashing gif, When the user clicks to read the message he's taken to the register page, Once registered he will recieve a welcome PM which has previously been set by yourself in your ACP, to send a PM to new registrations.

Thats it, so simple and it takes, practically minutes to install.

Where to edit??

Simply add the code below to your forums style header template, at the end and save, It really is that simple.
Code:
<if condition="$show['registerbutton']"><div align="right">You have a new PM! Click here <a href="$vboptions[bburl]/register.php$session[sessionurl_q]" rel="nofollow">here</a> to read it! <a href="$vboptions[bburl]/register.php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="http://yourforum/newpm.gif" border="0"></a></div></if>
Edits to the Code

All you need to do is just upload the flashing newpm.gif to your images folder or any other folder you wish and provide the url in the code, if you view the code you'll see where it goes.

This will only show to unregistered viewers, registered members will not see this.

Hope it brings new registrations to your site also

Take care
