Re: Extra Boxes - 1.0.3

Here is a better description.

You get 3 more boxes that you can turn on and off like the Announcement box.

Two of the boxes are exactly like the Announcement box and will be displayed to everyone except they have the titles 'Information' and 'Advertisement'

The last box is a box that will only be displayed to Guests and hase the title 'Guest Information'

An example can be seen here.

Re: Extra Boxes - 1.0.3

OH you need to kill your cache, just hit submit on the admin_options.php page and it should be fixed, hopefully.

Re: Extra Boxes - 1.0.3

Can you open it up, goto the config table, and then export the data to a file. Then either upload or mail it to me again.

Re: Extra Boxes - 1.0.3

Ok what I am seeing is what I originally thought, that the install_mod.php had not been executed or had failed, can you try to run it one more time?

If you redownload there is a new version of install_mod.php that clears your cache for you.

Re: Extra Boxes - 1.0.3

There was a problem with a variable name in the installer, download again and rerun install_mod.php
