Will try this, but I was hoping for a more step by step guide.

Thanks anyway!

if you use ftp client like filezilla then
you can just select the plugin files at your computer and drop them to ftp window of your MyBB forum

here is the plugin files uploading method in different words !
basically plugin files are to be added to inc/plugins folder of MyBB files server.
if plugin consists of single php file then that is the simple method. but plugin might
consist of several files. in that case we have to follow folder structure of plugin files.
this can be confusing at sometimes as plugin coders may not follow unified method to
pack their plugin files. readme file if exists with plugin can consist of the instructions

if plugin files are located in a folder named Upload then its contents should be transferred
by following folder structure. that Upload folder itself should not be transferred.

after adding the plugin files you have to visit admin panel >> configuration >> plugins
page to install & activate newly added plugin. then proceed to configuration >> settings
page to find the settings related to newly added plugin and setup the plugin settings.

youtube has some videos to help (you can search for MyBB plugins installation)

Awesome! Working now, but a problem has arisen, the my alerts bar is conflicting with my theme, how can this be fixed? My forum is located here: https://tjbruce17594.com/forums

You can see the Alerts button is not properly fitted. Is there a way to fix it. Steps would be helpful.

Bump.

Hello everyone!

Is it possible to get MyAlerts to work with the Flatty Theme?

Can you get a link/bar next to User CP to appear with the title Alerts, on Flatty?

Also is it possible to fix the Alerts Bar on the side in the User CP to have the text align right?

Thanks anyone for the help

Yes, it is possible. It just requires a couple of template edits and CSS changes. There are quite a few people using it with that theme successfully as far as I'm aware.

I'm not using that theme. If you send me your URL and details for a user account I can take a look.
