This is a bit confusing markup, especially in the mobile version. Thanks, noted this change for the next update. Assuming it looks good in the default theme, it will be included.

kmk Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Hi, the message can be placed in the topic page, the page where show the topic content and replies? only admin can use it or I can set members to use it? if I can give members ability to use, is possible they don't have to use it through ACP?

The widget block can be placed in any widget area. So there is a horizontal one at the top of the topic area I believe. Only admins can use, I will look at adding member support in the future but it's not highly requested and is a big change to implement just for a few people.

Would it also be possible to add a CKEditor button, so that we can use the message to embed into content? To date, I use a different plugin but I have to manually add the messages. I'm also experiencing issues due it being old now. However, your application is better suited to what I seek. I can save various templates and customise the messages further. Allowing team members to choose what message is shown, without me having to provide them the code as I do now. Plus, it cuts the hassle of explaining what people need to do each time someone new does something. This feature would be awesome. PS. If we could organise the message into categories that would also be such an awesome addition! Edited December 24, 2019 by Joey_M

I'll have to think about the editor button though and the best way to implement it. annadaa and Joey_M 1 1

James101 Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 Hey, I unchecked the setting to show in all forums. Does this mean it will only show on forum home? Because it still shows in all parts of forums, topic view, etc.

James101 Posted May 3, 2020 Posted May 3, 2020 @Mike John - I am having an issue. I unchecked show in all forums and did not select any forums assuming it would only show on home page but it still shows everywhere?

Yeah that's intended, there's only "show in all forums" or "show in a forum". If you've got ftp access, I can give you a patch to update and only show on the board index until I can add this as an option.
James101 Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 @Michael.J - Messages application your list here - https://www.devfuse.com/forums/topic/12381-ipboard-45-update/ is in Red. Does that mean it is good to go or we are waiting for green? Thank you
James101 Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 @Michael.J - Hey, thank you for updating it to 4.5. If alright, I would like to offer a suggestion. Is it possible to add a box type - Bubble boxes? Example - http://prntscr.com/uag39t and http://prntscr.com/uag4g1 I tried researching to add it myself by entering some CSS code in the editor box but I have absolutely no idea about all of that and failed miserably. If you could tell us how to do it it ourselves (if such a thing is possible) or take this as a suggestion to implement in future updates then it would be great! Thank you!

If you add your own custom css class to acp > theme editor > css tab > core > front > custom > custom.css You can then use that class in the message style setting. I'm not very experienced with css design, so don't have any css code you can use.
James101 Posted September 21, 2020 Posted September 21, 2020 @Michael.J - Hi, thanks for the advice, I will look into it. On a side note, I have a run into another issue with messages app. When enabled, some parts of the forums are narrowed down - http://prntscr.com/ukwjgs It become proper when messages app is disabled.

Had this happen on my 4.5 community using the IPSFocus Dimension theme. Ended up disabling the theme and making my own, to regain compatibility with the Messages app.

But if this is just affecting the Messages widget, I'll need a copy of the theme or admin login details to take a look and see what it could be. Whiskey Bizness 1

I have sent you the login details to my ACP through private message. @Michael.J what James101 said is accurate for me as well. Here are a few screen shots showing what happens when Messages is activated and I am using the IPSFocus "Dimension" theme vs when I use the IPS Default theme and a semi-customized version of IPS Default. The latter two work just fine with Messages, so I suppose it's entirely possible this is a theme compatibility issue. Sorry for the blur effect. This community is somewhat political in nature and it's possible that some members might take offense if I just post screenshots with their names listed.

James101 Posted November 11, 2020 Posted November 11, 2020 @Ziggs - Sorry to know you are facing the same issue but thank you for clearing out the probable reason for the issue. It seems like its a theme based issue. @Michael.J - Do you think there can be a fix from your end? If multiple users are facing similar issue and its theme based then it would be a pain contacting every theme developer to fix the issue on their themes? I have already sent you my ACP logins through a private message. If you could take a look and see if you can fix it directly by making a patch? Thank you!
