XF 2.3 How to make an announcement like in phpBB

[Abraham54]

I like to know if it is possible to get an announcements message like that is possible in phpBB?

Het Giphy en Tenor forum - PiepCompSupport

I’m not sure how phpbb is, or what the screenshots mean, but maybe it’s notices in xenForo?

In your admin panel see Communication > Notices.

@Mr Lucky Notices is not the sulution.

An announcement in phpBB appears above the forum for messages and can be used for extra information.

Isn't it just a sticky thread?

 

[Abraham54]

No, it is not a sticky thread.
Sticky threads are also possible, same as in XF.

This is exactly what the function "notices"does:

1.) Add a notice in ACP:



2.) configure it to your needs



3.) It will be displayed above the forum list (or on other pages as you configure it)

Notices does it.

With this addon: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/ozzmodz-global-stickies.9880/

But notices has a similar purpose.

I copied the idea of announcements from phpBB. It allows you to have instructions, warnings, anything you want to tell members about the forum they are viewing. Sorry this add-on is not currently available yet.

Actually you could make a suggestion as its already in the coders archive but not yet for sale. He may make it available https://gnz.is/community/add-ons-suggestions/
