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

This is a confirmed bug.

  • Both suggestions saved and will be looked into. I'll have to think about the editor button though and the best way to implement it.

  • Widgets only display 1 message at a time but if your using the central hook that appears at the top of the forums, you can choose between displaying messages in rotation or by position (with drag and

  • 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

Awww, I purchased it just for that since users were complaining that they couldn't collapse regular announcements in IPS. Any ideas when you think you can patch it?

It could be a few months more. I can refund/exchange your purchase? Or seeing as the screenshot showed the collapse settings incorrectly already in place, I can extend your subscription time to cover the wait until it's added?

I'll take a refund and I'll pick up Collections later when my site has calmed down and settled after the migration to IPS, since it hasn't even been a week yet.

I've included you in a PM conversation requesting a refund. I've also updated the screenshot that incorrectly showed collapse support. (It was removed the last minute before release due to my limited experience when first working with IPB4.)

Alright thanks :)!

Hello! I've just bought this app and there's an issue. I set to show a message in a particular forum, but I also can see this message on the main page. Is it a bug? Is it possible to short messages only on selected forums?

If you select forums, it should be only displaying in that forum. Are you using the default hook or have you added a widget?

I haven't added a widget. So, I've just set a forum in the settings:

Then, I can see the message on this forum:

2016-08-16_09-59-41.jpg

But also I can see it on the main page as well:

Can you me the modified file mentioned in that page so I can check over your edit? I'm not able to reproduce this issue locally.

Assuming your using a recent version of IPB4, that code is still working for me and I'm unable to reproduce this. I'll need ftp and acp login details to troubleshoot further.

I've just updated this application with 2 more bug fixes. View the latest bug fixes here.

Does this app upgrade the Global Messages from IPB3 to IPB4? Or does it need to be installed as a fresh installation and then recreate the messages from scratch too?

Yes full upgrade support for existing messages. You can view the upgrade guide from IPB 3.4 to IPB 4.x here - http://www.devfuse.com/forums/tutorials/article/165-upgrade-from-ipboard-34x/

Great, thanks MIke; I will get the new version soon.

Whilst trouble shooting recently, I disabled Messages and my forum  threw an error

[[Template core/front/global/globalTemplate is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]]

It goes away when I re-enable the app.

How can I uninstall Messages without losing my current theme?

Are you using the main global hook or widgets? The later is a lot better suited for placing the messages in different locations other then the forum.

I would like to help install this if needed. If you can PM me your admin details and an example of a few locations you would like to see messages placed in, I can setup a few examples.

HI Mike,

Just bought the application - looks good!  I was wondering if there was a fix for the toggle messages ability?

One other thing: I set up a Message to appear to members who have joined within the last day.  It seems to work so far, but there's a small glitch - it also appears after regular members (including the Admin) have fully logged out of the site.  In fact, it appears to every guest who arrives at the site, when it should really only appear to new Members who have logged in, and only for X amount of days.
