Or: http://community.mybboard.net/thread-40446.html

Maybe give the search function a go next time, that has been ask soooo many times...
I did do a search FYI. I did it for "announcements", so please don't assume that I did not make an effort to find it.

Thanks

6th result when searching announcements:
Quote:Are The Latest News Message Bars On The Front Page Of This Site's Forum A Plugin?
7th result
Quote:how to make an Announcement like that in this forum at the top of index in this forum , that yellow,green and blue boxes?

I also wouldn't consider conducducting one search for one word a thorough search.

But anyway, at least you got the answer in the end Smile
ok, thanks.

Anyway, how do I get the different colours? I tried editing the board_messages.css file but I can only add one style and also the links aren't underlined when I hover over them.

Thanks again

This really isn't the right place to post MyBB Support you know.
I'm not to sure how to do it using the plugin but the one on the MyBB site is done the CSS way (the second way i posted up there) and to change the colour of that you just change the background: #CCCCFF; property of the css class.
Thank you.
My tutorial says how to change them, you just add a new chunk of CSS and change the colours.
Yes, I finally figured it out. Thanks guys Smile
