Did you know pop ups

[Michael Morris]

Wouldn't it be better to have these tips appear at the top of the page, where right now, a message from June/July greets me? I mean, pop-ups are loathed, and I'd say that a good amount of people have blockers installed anyway.

Hey! You gave me an idea!!

Ok, the tips of the day now launch in the announcement area unless you explicitly request them to launch as pop-ups (Edit Options >> Messaging & Notification Options).

EDIT: You can also request they launch on an hourly basis instead of daily.

Now They're appearing as pop-ups.

Ya, now I get pop ups. I'd also add a link to a page that has all of the messages on them just in case someone wants to read them all.

The pop-ups are coming up for me on every single page I look at while I'm not logged in. That, combined with the site's tendency to log me out every few pages, is quite annoying.

 

[Kangaxx]

Since this new problem showed up, I actually researched the logging out problem, and fixing that resolved both issues. For some reason not having www in the address bar was causing problems.

 

[Michael Morris]

Yes, the turning it off is cookie based, and if you use the www.enworld.org/forums address the cookies will be wrong - hence the system will behave - oddly.

I got the pop now! Rather BIG.

So are yoou going to use it as a broadcast message?
