Forumdisplay Warning Splash Message
![]() Developer Last Online: May 2021 ![]() ![]() ![]() This thread is in the Modification Graveyard.
THIS ADD-ON IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE AND IS NOT SUPPORTED
* General Information * ------------------------------ This add-on was originally coded by Kirk Y on vbulletin.org for vB version 3.6.8. With permission, I have adapted it to work with vB versions 4.1.x and 4.2.0. What does this do? --------------------- This modification adds the ability to give specific forums "warning messages" that are shown to the user before he/she enters the forum. For example: the user enters a forum that is intended for adults; the user enters this forum, is presented with the warning message explaining as much, and he/she can then choose to proceed into the forum or return back to where they were. Features -----------
* INSTALLATION * --------------------- 1) Upload the entire 'images' folder to your forum's root. (If your forum's location is http://www.example.com/forums/, the root is /forums/) If your style has a 'misc' folder, also upload the 2 gif files in the images/misc folder to your style's 'misc' folder. 2) Import the product XML file (product-forumsplash.xml) into the Product Manager in AdminCP. 3) Go to ACP->Settings->Options->Splash Warning Message Settings. Turn on the system and set the options. 4) Go to ACP->Forums & Moderators->Forum Manager and set the message you want displayed in each forum you want the message displayed in. Known working with vB 4.1.11, 4.1.12 and 4.2.0. * History (Changelog) * --------------------------- 4.0.5 - (August 10, 2012) Fix - Splash page still showing when multiple usergroups are excluded. 4.0.4 - (August 9, 2012) Fix - Splash page still showing when mod is turned off. 4.0.3 - (August 9, 2012) Add - Option to completely hide threads or use alpha transparency (Completely hide by default in settings). 4.0.2 - (August 9, 2012) Add - Option to allow members to go directly to a thread (NOTE: Contents of the thread will be completely hidden by splash page). 4.0.1 - (July 28, 2012) Fix - Posts not displaying after proceeding to forum. 4.0.0 - (July 27, 2012) Initial Release Download Now Only licensed members can download files, Click Here for more information.

permanently disable messages are turned off and i saw the screen when checking the section first time round but even when logged off now i dont see it at all.
Maybe an error my end so will double check it all. All seemed set correct and Reinstalled to check,but still not showing after that First time and also Ive noticed that the Forum sections its used on would not open up any threads when clicking them,Had to turn it off to get them working again so maybe something i have already it doesnt work with.

As me. Did not work on FF or IE. It loads the splash fine, but clicking on the content takes you no where.
Nice tho - I'll use it when it is corrected! No members have liked this post.

I'm not sure what happened. I tested this on 3 different sites before releasing. However today it's working on 1 site, but not the other two.
I'll try to have a fix out sometime today. No members have liked this post.

Fix posted.
Sorry about that folks! If you installed version 4.0.0 and still have problems after updating to 4.0.1, clear cookies from your system and that should fix it from here on out. No members have liked this post.

Installed thanks.
Seems like after someone has entered the room it stops showing up next time they enter it. Is there away to have it show every time they enter the room? I wanna kinda use it for a different purpose, I wanna use it if there is a special announcement for that board it pops up. However if it only shows up one time it wont work. Maybe have a rest button lol Just a suggestion, either way I'll use it just have things going thru my mind on how to use this.... thanks

So no, at this time it can't be set to show every time they enter a forum during the same user session. NOTE: If at any time you allow someone to disable the message permanently, it is permanent. If you change it back to 'Don't allow users to permanently disable via cookie' it will have no effect on people that have already permanently disabled it. I do plan an update that will reset the cookie if you change it back like that. No members have liked this post.

And there will eventually be an update to reset the cookie if the cookie settings are changed. The following members like this post: ProFifaLeagues

Can the splash screen also be shown before entering the forum home?
I ask this with the EU cookie law in mind. It might be a good way to ask people to accept cookies ![]()
