Isn't it suppose to show up a alert bar? Try the default theme and see if it works. If not than you have screwed up your MyBB
.
Yea it is, it usually shows up though. For my last theme it did.
So just copy the same templates?
Just make sure {$pm_notice} is in your header template.

Its there but its still not working. My header just had {welcomeblock} it in thats it so this above is the welcome block.
Make sure it's actually turned on in your User CP Options.
Yea its on for me, any other ideas why it would not be working?
Make sure there is contents in your global_pm_alert template.
Where is that? I have never heard of that template.
