socceronly Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 I agree, it's striking and can't be missed.One line of text and pick the color of text & background.Oh and just for the hell of it, the ability to make it blink in different colors for specific members groups or users just to bug the hell out of them.

Jim M Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 This is probably a little more technically inclined but we have a how-to on something similar, just need to style it and target the correct template:http://community.invisionpower.com/4docs/advanced-usage/development/plugins-an-example-r72/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or will this have to be edited each time? edited each time, you could also use font awesome to add a pre icon to messagelike..<div id="top_message"><i class="fa fa-lightbulb-o"></i> this is a test message.</div>this adding a lightbulb to front of messageyou can find more font awesome icons to use at http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/#new Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Avila Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Thank you, I moved from Vbuleltin and have been out of forums for maybe about 5 years so I'm re-learning all of this again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel F Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Install topmessage.xml as plugin and njoy:) http://screencast.com/t/uW4ou0niQ Howto for plugin coders: Create plugin Create a setting to save the text (plugin devcenter => settings tab). I'm using daniel_topmessage as name. Try to use something unique! Rename settings file from settings.example.php to settings.php and create your settings form//<?php $form->add( new \IPS\Helpers\Form\Editor( 'daniel_topmessage', \IPS\Settings::i()->daniel_topmessage, FALSE, array( 'app' => 'core', 'key' => 'Admin', 'autoSaveKey' => 'daniel_topmessage') ) ); if ( $values = $form->values() ) { $form->saveAsSettings(); return TRUE; } return $form; Create theme hook for the globalTemplate and add your custom code to top of the body {{if \IPS\Settings::i()->daniel_topmessage != ''}} <div id='top_message'>{{ $var = \IPS\Settings::i()->daniel_topmessage; }}{$var|raw}</div> {{endif}} create a css file in your plugin/dev/css directorymy code: #top_message { background: #f5ceaf; padding: 10px; font-size: 14px; color: #573418; text-align: center; } #top_message :first-child { margin-top: 0 !important; margin-left: 0 !important; margin-bottom: 0 !important; } The first-child part isn't really necessary, but it's just a quick unofficial plugin, so i didn't want to spend too much time with this...The problem is, that the editor is saving the text in an paragraph, that's why I'm using the :first-child selector to remove the margin.. enjoy your cool plugin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
