I dont know if this has been asked before but there is an option in the cp to have a popup window notifying you of a new private message. I have this set as yes but when I receive a new message i dont get a popup window. Does this functionality work or am I missing something.

Any chance of adding a link on the main page stating that you have "x new messages". At least then every time I go to boards I can see if i have new messages rather than having to go to the user cp page, which I hardly ever go to unless im sending a pm

i have alot of stalkers

Now that i think of it i think they only pop up the first time you recieve a pm from someone. ie. if neil here pm'd me, cause he hasn't done so b4 i think it'd pop up. A second pm wouldn't.

Hey John,

PM notification in all it's wondrous forms (mail, pop-ups) seems to be b0rken (unless someone's just now fixed it).

Can you un-b0rken it for us?

Cheers,
Al.
