Hello!

Is there any option/way/code to receive a notification when a PM has arrived in your inbox?

In your profile is an option to "Display a pop-up window for new private messages". Every member has the option to receive them or not receive them. Understand though that members using a popup blocker or Ad blocker may not see the pop-ups if they have it enabled on your forum.

Yes but you have to go to each of your members profiles one by one and set it manually, but they can reset it back to not receive a pop-up if they so choose, you can't force a pop-up on anyone.

Your best way is to make a "New message" button for the Navbar that is in a contrasting colour to your forum. That way it is easily seen by all members when they get a new message.

  if(document.getElementById('i_icon_mini_new_message')) {
    $('body').prepend('<div id="newPM"><a href="/privmsg">You have new private messages in your inbox.</a></div>');
  }
});
