yes, it's a new pop-up box design. Showing more information, also, showing parts of the PM.

An improvement, I feel.

Check the extra smilies code, see if it says anything about the smilies appearing in the PM area. Because it might only appear in threads and stuff.

Goldigga, do you mean it is actually showing the HTML rather than the smiley itself?

If so, seems Ross is forgetting the stripslashes() bit.

I like the way mods presume everything {Cheesy}

goldigga, I've fixed the pop-up notification and I've requested my PMs to be backed up again so I can test out why you can't download them {Smile}

That's one of our jobs:
#1 - Presume everything
#2 - Blame Ross at all expenses
#3 - Do not talk about Mod Fight Club

The issue with the backup is the URL to download is broken (it's missing the .co.uk). So the link to download your PMs should be:
http://benalmadena.vforums.co.uk/action/pm_backup/download/
(You can only download the backup when logged in as you)

still got problems with the pm pop up

it works when it feels like it lol

when i get a pm and pop up appears the board is fine

but if i get a pm and the pop up does not appear the board looks like this till i refresh page

as you can see the board as sort of wandered of to the right {Rolleyes}

That also happens on Vforums Support also. Just so you'd know.

This forum is now running exactly the same software as standard forums. For that to happen it must be leaving some UBBC tags unclosed. However I've not managd to find which ones. Any chance you can let me know what formatting is on the ones which this happens to? eg. are there quote, code or table tags near the start of the message?

I've managed to duplicate and (as far as I am aware) fix the issues with the pop-up notification appearing {Smile}
