Xen Notices [Deleted]

Thanks Chris! Just bought this brilliant script and love it already!
How do we go about getting updates to the script? Do you email out those who bought it?
 
I always send an e-mail but sometimes for various reasons people won't receive the e-mails.

So, make sure you keep the e-mail you've just received. That will always download the latest version available. Then, keep an eye out on this Resource as updates are always published here. (You can Watch the Resource with e-mail confirmation).
 
Hello, quick question about this resource. In the Overview when you're explaining the first notification you mention that the notice couldn't be dismissed but there's clearly an "X" at the upper right corner as if it could.

In the second orange one you allowed it to be dismissed and there's a "Dismiss Notification" link at the bottom.

If the notice cannot be dismissed, does the close symbol appear?
 
Yes.

The close button is a temporary way to get rid of the notification and a way for guests to close the notification.

Depending on settings it can be closed anywhere from just the current browser session all the way up to quite a few days.

But it will come back. Also it's cookie based so it will come back if you go to a different machine.

If you dismiss a notification then it goes away permanently
 
So, I just purchased this Add-on and installed it on a fresh install of XenForo (No other Add-ons except your Add-on Installer) and I get this:
Server Error

Halp!
 
To be fair, for you to get that, there's probably some other problem... but there is indeed a bug. I'm about to release an update to address it. That might give us some more information.

You can just install an add-on manually for now (Upload the files) then go to the direct page in your Admin CP (rather than the Install & Upgrade link) for installing add-ons: http://yoursite.com/admin.php?add-ons/install

EDIT: The aforementioned update: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/add-on-install-upgrade.960/update?update=4635
 
Maybe asked before... but... 46 pages... lol.

Any option to "force" a user to agree to terms / accept they've read the notice. Eg a tickbox or redirect to an external page with said tickbox or similar first?
 
Not really. Best you can do is create a notification that will show on every page (same criteria as Notices) and allow it to be dismissible. The wording would have to say "By dismissing this notice you agree blah...". Or you could change the Dismiss Notification phrase to some other appropriate text.

Ok thanks, we need something more explicit that we can record to the database though (Like a digital signature / time and date capture) :)

Nevermind, have it as a suggestion :D

I changed my previous domain name so redid hosting and all that. This is a brand new forum install (about 15 minutes ago) with nothing changed and nothing added except your Add-on installer and this. Not sure what could have caused the problem.

Thanks though for the quick fix attempt. I'm still having issues though.

I'll try without the Add-on Installer and let you know.

Post Script: Manual installation worked. This add-on works great. Thanks very much.
