Unlimited Newly Registered Users Messages

[[R] NuclearGeneral]

This mod will give you the ability to display unlimited messages at the board index and/or sidebar to all new users after they will register at your forum. The message will be visible to them for a certain time frame, which can be set by the admin, from the moment they register.

 

This can come very much in handy to make the new users aware of the various rules that you have in place at your forum.

 

Installation and Configuration:

 

To install this application, upload the admin folder inside the Upload folder to the root of your forum folder. Then go to your Admin Panel->Applications & Modules->Manage Applications & Modules and on the right side where it says: Applications Not Installed you will see a new application added called: New USers Message. Click on the install button.

 

To configure it go to the Other Apps tab then from the drop down list choose New Users Message and it will take you to the management/settings area.

 

There you can add unlimited messages which will be displayed to the new users after they register at your forum. The message will be visible on all pages at the board index and/or at the sidebar as well and they will be displayed randomly each time the user refreshes the browser the message/s will be displayed to him/her one at the time. It uses the full rich editor that you use in posts and threads so you can use bbcodes, smilies, tags etc. You can also display the users names to personalize it.

 

You can decide the time frame that the message will be displayed to the new users from the moment that they register at your forum.

 

You can set the message title and message body.

 

Several screenshots of the Application are attached below so it will give you a more detailed idea on how it looks like when being used
