You can always refactor later to move some things into functions.</p> <p>Start simple. Find the place where the message is displayed to the user. Then, add some html there to display an image. Make sure you upload the image, then make sure you get the path to the image correct. I think that would be pretty simple.</p> <p>I thought there was a "newmail.png" already included though? I don't use the PM plugin, but if that icon is present, where is it displayed? If it's not on the page you want, I would use the same method they use to display it, just on a different page.</p> <p>Although the title of this topic is "Private Messaging Popup" you're not looking to create a javascript popup when the user logs in that they have a PM, are you?</p> <p>You could also contact the plugin author:<br /> <a href="http://faq.rayd.org/bbpress_private_message/" rel="nofollow">http://faq.rayd.org/bbpress_private_message/</a></p> <p>From that page:<br /> <code>Visible representation of when a message hasn't been seen (in your inbox and sent box)</code> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/private-message-popup#post-18683 Tue, 26 Aug 2008 19:53:09 +0000 brad_langdon 18683@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Does anyone know how to modify the code of the private messages plugin so that an image is inserted when a message is received.</p> <p>I was thinking of an image popping up next to the text where it says you have a new message like an envelope icon or something.</p> <p>I am guessing you would add some kind of function but I don't quite know how. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/trick-to-fix-some-email-problems-with-08x-plugins-on-09x#post-17503 Tue, 22 Jul 2008 00:52:52 +0000 kapre 17503@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Does this plugin available?

But the current issue is that it only takes literally 5 seconds to create another account becuase the new account details will be sent to the same email address over and over again.</p> <p>anyway, i never thought of the redirecting I guess im just losing alot of sleep, yeahs nice idea. .htaccess </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registering-with-another-users-email#post-17367 Wed, 16 Jul 2008 23:35:50 +0000 _ck_ 17367@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>nv1962, it would be a good plugin to learn/practice from. Roughly 3-5 lines total. Essentially you'd add an action to bb_send_headers and just like my plugin above, if the bb_get_location=="register-page" you echo the redirect header for the wordpress page (and then do a die() so no other code can execute until it redirects). </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registering-with-another-users-email#post-17365 Wed, 16 Jul 2008 23:27:41 +0000 nv1962 17365@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>The sole (arguably flimsy) reason I cleaned-out the register.php file is pure paranoia: to avoid directly injected calls that somehow (mysteriously) don't get caught by Apache (htaccess).</p> <p>Let's say I'm not too confident in my mad php skillz to write such a plugin... I'll try it with a redirect instead. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registering-with-another-users-email#post-17364 Wed, 16 Jul 2008 23:22:47 +0000 _ck_ 17364@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Well login integration is not as important as the register part. As far as your instructions, I wouldn't recommend deleting the contents of a core file but the redirect part is okay.</p> <p>It occurs to me, it's actually possible to redirect the register page in bbpress to the wordpress side via plugin with no edits required anywhere.</p> <p>Remember that bbPress registration process should catch up to the WordPress side eventually. In fact I like it's layout better but WordPress's is more mature code-wise. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registering-with-another-users-email#post-17363 Wed, 16 Jul 2008 23:17:53 +0000 nv1962 17363@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Sorry for the tangent _ck_ but... you really recommend redirecting all <em>logins</em> to WP, too? As in, <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/simple-integration-tip-for-new-registration">this silly thing</a> I just posted about "unifying" registration on the WP side? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registering-with-another-users-email#post-17362 Wed, 16 Jul 2008 23:07:56 +0000 _ck_ 17362@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Yes, this is why I always recommend to people when integrating with WordPress that they redirect all login and registration links to the wordpress side. It's had years of development in that area.</p> <p>In any case, here is a simple plugin to prevent duplicate email addresses. Unfortunately bbPress has no way to place custom error messages on the page without template hacking but this should do:<br /> <pre><code>&lt;?php /* Plugin Name: no duplicate email addresses Author: _ck_ */ if ($_POST &#38;&#38; bb_get_location()==&quot;register-page&quot;) {add_filter(&#39;bb_verify_email&#39;,&#39;no_duplicate_email&#39;);} function no_duplicate_email($email) { if ($email) {global $bbdb; if (!$bbdb-&gt;get_row($bbdb-&gt;prepare(&quot;SELECT * FROM $bbdb-&gt;users WHERE user_email = %s&quot;, $email))) {return $email;} else {add_action(&#39;bb_foot&#39;,&#39;no_duplicate_email_alert&#39;); return false;}} } function no_duplicate_email_alert() {echo &quot;&lt;scr&quot;.&quot;ipt&gt;alert(&#39;&quot;.__(&quot;email address already registered&quot;).&quot;&#39;);&lt;/script&gt;&quot;;} ?&gt;</code></pre> <p>(bbPress 0.9 or higher required) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registering-with-another-users-email#post-17361 Wed, 16 Jul 2008 23:00:46 +0000 nv1962 17361@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Impersonation might be a cause for concern.
