i will wait for documentation on it.

another thing is why do i always get 

 Error 500 - Internal Server Error

when i try and open an extensions own admin page i was trying some extensions from flux but any that have an admin i cant access it hmm

im guessing its something to do with permissions?

Hi how would you create an admin page .. would you use the same way?
i suppose you would have to add a line of code to include the admin navigation ?
and also to hide it from everyone apart from admin's ?

hd_head outputs in the same place as hd_alert hmm

also viewing the source of the webpage shows that it is output before the html tag starts in both hd_head and hd_alert

Well the problem i had was trying to hook "hd_alert" in the header.php

when i hook it , it displays the output at the start of the document instead of between the menu and main board where i expect it to output ?.

    <hooks>
        <hook id="hd_alert"><![CDATA[
echo '<div id="brd-alert"><p align=center> Where does this output??</p></div>';
        ]]></hook>
    </hooks>

below is a screenshot of the output and where i thoght the output should be?

Yeah at first i found it hard to grasp the concept of hooks. but once your use them, they are easy and fantastic.

Yeah thanks i already had a look at that still didn't make much sence to me..

Hi im new with the extensions and hooks. i used to play about with the plugins and simple mod's in 1.2
but now i have updated to 1.3 and im trying to port over my mod and the plugin that controlled it, to an extension..

the only problem is the hooks arent going where i thot they would..

is there any documentation or tutorials on the extensions and hooks yet?

Moreover, we have added a feature request to prevent the alert from being displayed if the administrator isn't going to install one or several hotfixes.
Could you perhaps advise us on a more convenient way to do that? Should we do this in a direct manner (for instance by making a button 'I won't install this hotfix') or in an inderct one (regard a hotfix as 'spotted' if the administrator has opened the page of installing the extensions)

I think you should use a method like microsoft does on there windows update system, using a simple checkbox that allows the user to simply hide the hotfix, then add another page that allows them to unhide the hotfixes.

i have made a mock image of what i think would be a good idea.. this could take longer than a simple link that you suggested.

Hi,
I dont know if this is a bug or something wrong on my side, but i just did a fresh install and everything seems to be ok.
Apart from the Administrator Alerts.

I keep geting the ,

ATTENTION! There are important Administrator Alerts that you should view immediately.

on all pages and when going to the Admin Information Page i get ,

Administrator Alerts: PunBB updates: One or more hotfix extensions are available for install on the Extensions tab of the admin interface.

i have installed all the hotfixes available on the extensions page even the migration hotfix that i dont need.
also cleared the cache, logged in and out several times

is there anything i can do or is this a bug?
