No not yet, have been preoccupied with critical IPB 4.1 updates. I'll be going through another round of bug fixes again but won't be for a few more weeks.

Hi - the issue here is that it is not useable and I have paid for a product plus support yet it has already been 4 weeks since reported to you and you are saying a few weeks more.

If the temporary workaround is not working I would be happy to provide another solution until this is fixed (PM me). I'm sorry but I have to prioritize the bugs I get in and to me the bugs that IPB 4.1 produced were more critical at the time.

I'll need board access to troubleshoot this further, error could mean just about anything.

I've just upgrade to V4, purchased this and installed. I've created a message for all groups in all forums & enabled it, but it doesn't show. Am I missing something simple?

Please cancel, I was missing something simple :smile:

@Mike John - I have set up two messages and click the 'random' setting within the block, yet I have two messages displaying - one on top of the other. Is there any way of making it so they rotate upon refresh?

Do you mean you only want to show 1 message randomly? If so, if your using the hook you'll need to adjust the message limit to 1 instead of 5 or what ever the default setting is. So then it will show 1 message randomly instead of a bunch of messages in random order.

I'm using the widget, as I only want the message to show within the community.

Could you perhaps clarify your original question as I'm not sure I understand what your trying to do now. If the random option is selected in a widget, it should then just rotate between available messages.

For me it displays the messages beneath each other, I'm not sure why but I have been experiencing some issues with missing CSS since the latest upgrade.

Just to rule out any widget cache, can you try removing and then re-adding each widget again?

I've updated this application to fix an installation error and also add support for topic view display when you restrict a message to a particular forum.

@Mike John where is the CSS controlled?

I would like to remove the padding.

There's not a dedicated css file but you can modify the template bits in theme editor > gms > front > global > messageList and messageRow.

What message style are you using and is it a widget or the default hook position? The widget area actually will add it's own padding to all widgets, so that's a little different to change then the actual global message itself.

It's the widget I'm using Mike, I did manage to resolve the padding on my old theme but I had to edit a template to re-add spacing. I've slept since then and I don't recall exactly how I achieved it.

Just logged in using my previous details and it looks like you may have gotten this fixed? The top widget block seems to be lining up properly in both themes.

Yes, sorry - I was meaning to edit my reply but I forgot. ^_^

@Mike John

Just purchased this, I enabled the collapse setting but I can't figure out how to let users collapse messages?
