MessageBox
#post9472
Version of MemHT I'm using is on side
Site: http://www.sabarre.com
Question is below:

I'm trying to understand MessageBox. I read about it on forum, but what I read does not connect to my site.

I look in admin at Install Addons and I see I have MessageBox as an Addon

,I want to display the message box on my main page.

I read on the forum that Mem say to go to Admin - Blocks - MessageBox, but I see no MessageBox in the Blocks.

So I'm confused. MessageBox is under Install Addons, but I do not see it in Blocks. How do I display the MessageBox on the main page for users and guests to use. I already set in Config/Conent that Guest can write in MsgBox to yes but I don't know how to display it on main page.

Thanks

p.s. There is a chance I don't know what a MessageBox is. I'm thinking it is similar to a shout box that members and visitors can type quick messages.

Yeah, message box is shoutbox.. but user have have to wait 30 secs (or so) to post another message..

To make it enable at your front page, go to admin pannel..

systems > blocks > add

then select file 'messages'.

Block title > Message Box (or anything you want)
Block title > Yes (or No if wanna hide title)
Type > File
Zone > Navigator/Extra/Main (select one..)
Position >
File > messages

...
Required rank > Guest/Member (Who you want to be able to leave message..)


Administrating Message box:
Go to admin panel > install addons > messagebox

There you can clear messages, delete particular message, or track IP of user..

Hope it will help..

Thanks a million. I feel like a real dummy, but the support here has been great. Just curious, how did you know what to do or find the instructions to make the message box? I keep searching for help but never seem to find it.

thanks again
