Thanks yavuz, and one day I might even get round to the add-on you want me to work on15 $ is more than reasonable for a mod in this calibre, will purchase it the first chance I get
Ooh, is it bacon related?
I think it would work well as a replacement for that.Great work Yorick. Looks great!
May want to use this instead of MassAlert. Still debating, but I like the direction this going
You can target usergroups, specific users, and also have notifications displaying permanently until a certain date:
I was going to use this on my own forum to remind news writers to check the registered news feeds for content every day at certain times.

Screw it, i'm purchasing it now. I can't resist. I know this may not go down well with others but I seriously think your under charging Yorick. But just so you know developers who constantly develop and improve their resources I always make further donations for their efforts.
anyway, yeah. got to log into paypal it was really the only reason i was holding off because of my laziness.

They can be sent infinite number, just like in theory you can set infinite numbers of normal notices, so you do have to be careful.
You can set expiry dates on them, though. You just set the date criteria as per my post above.
Aww, thanks Shelley
Let me know how you get on, and if you have any feedback or ideas, let me know.

Installed perfectly, without any issues and just created my first notice. So far things are looking good and plenty of options which is nice. I'll tinker with it some more and give a more thorough review later but first impressions excellent job.

No issues whatsoever with the automated checkout delivery service. Paid, got e-mail (linkto download) click installed within 2 minutes. So for me it was quick.

Can't wait to see how Shelley adds her graphical touches to this one
It looks like each notification has it's own ID which makes it possible to style.
But would I need to make these styling adjustments and place them in extra.css Yorick? it looks like I do which isn't a problem.
Yeah each notification can have either light, dark or custom styling. If you choose custom you have to specify a class name such as gritter-red.
As long as gritter-red is defined in CSS then it will be used.
EXTRA.css is fine.
However, I have included an additional template called GritterEXTRA.css.
Put whatever you like in here. There's some comments and an example class called gritter-red for you to copy and paste and amend accordingly.

I think I'm going to use the generated notification IDs i think it will be easier for me to manage in the long term. I'll just throw it all in extra and clog up an already clogged template. Got my first notice quickly styled which brings me to a suggestion. Not sure whether this is possible but an option to include the medium sized avatar in notifications per notification?Oh and awesome job having fun with this.
Good Work, will get it soon.
I've an improvement idea: How about a setting that deletes the notice automatically if it is targeted to a specific user and he has seen and dismissed it? Or at least a flag in the admin screen of the notice that it has been seen and dismissed?

I guess I could write a cron job that runs every x minutes/hours that ascertains who it applies to and who has dismissed. Might go for disabling it rather than deleting, but yeah. I'll see if I can make this work.
