I want to change this to Inbox

Please help me, If you can

Forum Version: PunBB

Everyone someone asks this I challenge myself to do it another way lol.

Code:


<script>
(function(){var x= document.getElementById('i_icon_mini_message') ? 0 : /[0-9]/.exec(document.getElementById('i_icon_mini_new_message').title);
if(x){
document.getElementById('i_icon_mini_new_message').nextSibling.nodeValue = 'Inbox: '+x;
}else { document.getElementById('i_icon_mini_message').nextSibling.nodeValue = 'Inbox: 0'; }})();
</script>


Putting that in an announcement or widget will give you a nice new format for that link. It will be instant too, no flash of execution.

i put this code in Homepage>> Generalities but it did not change it

Sorry there was a character missing from the script. I have edited it now.

BUT you do realise that if you put it in the HOMEPAGE message then it will only change in the Homepage.


On an unrelatd note, why do you have the support forum listed as your site in your profile...?

ok updated the website fixed and i put the code in the templates>>Top of teh page but the you have no messages did not change

Solved?

I said put it in an announcement of widget. Not templates. They are the only places it will work. Just do as mentioned.

ok, i put it in the widgets but it did not work

link to your forum please.

I tested this on punbb, worked wonderfully. It will work on all board types.

Okay a few things.
First of all, I'm confused, you said you put it in a widget, but yet don't have widgets on your forum.
Secondly, the first script I provided had an error in as I said, and I edited the post to fix that... but yet you still haven't updated your script... your still using the one with the error in it.

And thirdly, you have another script crashing, its your category toggle script.

ok i don't used caggorie toggle so wuts the point and is this the new script:

Code:

<script>
(function(){var x= document.getElementById('i_icon_mini_message') ? 0 : /[0-9]/.exec(document.getElementById('i_icon_mini_new_message').title);
if(x){
document.getElementById('i_icon_mini_new_message').nextSibling.nodeValue = 'Inbox: '+x;
}else { document.getElementById('i_icon_mini_message').nextSibling.nodeValue = 'Inbox: 0'; }})();
</script>


yes thats the new script.
If you don't use the category toggle script you should remove it.

ok topic solved then
