Hi guys,

This mod/hack gives you a very simple yet much more noticeable Private Message notification. When the user has any PM's a red box will be added to the header of your website notifying the user of a new PM. It has animated text which is shown in the .gif screenshot attached below.

Open Template - header

Add at Top -

Code:
<!-- Private Message Alert -->
<style type="text/css">
.alert {
    background-color:#F00;
    width:100%;
    height:30px;
    color:#fff;
    font-size:14px;
    display:block;
}
.alert p {
    padding:5px;
}
.alert a {
    color:#ccc;
    text-decoration:none; 
}
</style>
<vb:if condition="$bbuserinfo[pmunread]">
<div class="alert">
<p><span style="text-decoration:blink; font-weight:bold;">ATTENTION! {vb:raw bbuserinfo.username}</span> You've got {vb:raw bbuserinfo.pmunread} unread private message(s), click <a href="private.php">here</a> to view.</p></div>
</vb:if>
<!-- Private Message Alert End -->

Simple, yet very effective, i just felt my forum needed something that stood out a bit more but didn't want anything massive.

Enjoy! And please remember to for future updates and support!
