If you haven't got the option, you've probably removed it from the templates..... there's no ACP setting that I can find, it's a setting in the UCP.
In your UserCP => Edit Options, there is a setting:
Alert me with a notice when I receive a Private Message?
Make sure this box is ticked, and the yellow bar will appear if a user receives a new message. That is, if the yellow bar is included in the templates (which it is by default).
I haven't touched the templates. And the strangely, the option is also enabled o_O
Now I just tested with the option enabled in my test svr. I dont have the notification.
I just PM'd you to see if you can see it....
Yes, I definitely can see it here!
(see my first post)
I though did a theme change to my test svr and then reverted back to default themes. Can that cause this from not working?
... riight... make sure {$pm_notice} is in your header template, after:
<hr class="hidden" />
<br class="clear" />
<div id="content">
Also try turning the setting off, save, and then turn it on again.
And if
that does nothing...
UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `pmnotice` = '1' WHERE `uid` = 'X'
Make sure your table prefix,
mybb_ here, is correct, and that you change X to your uid.
And if it still doesn't show then, then all the settings are correct but something is wrong with your notice.
That code is already there:
<hr class="hidden" />
<br class="clear" />
<div id="content">
{$pm_notice}
{$bannedwarning}
{$bbclosedwarning}
{$unreadreports}
{$unreadpmmsg}
<navigation>
<br />
Turned off, turned on.. no change :/
Ok, can you give a link to your forum and a test account, please.
Works perfectly well for me. I sent a PM to myself, and it shows up. I've sent one to you, let me know if you see it.
