i am usin smf 1.1.4 and this mod installed without any problem but it didnt work.

Glad, multiple forums use this and it works perfectly with your version of SMF as stated on the mod site.

are there any setting to activate this mod

Currently, they're none - v1.4 will

but it didnt work ?...

With 200+ downloads, your the first having an issue with this.
Perhaps, the changes were not made.

These are the 1.1.4 modifications

Please attach:
./Sources/Subs.php
./Themes/default/languages/index.english.php

[N3RVE]

In the Admin CP -> Themes and Layout -> Reset Options tab ->
"Reset all members current options for this theme" (this would be your theme)
-> "Show a popup when you receive new messages?" ->
Pull up change, check the box and apply changes.

I believe you are using SMF 1.1.x right?
This was working initially, what happened? Can you attach the current files the mod makes changes to?

Can you  provide additional information?
Did you get any errors when installing the mod? It doesn't alter the Admin.template.php file so the reset options button should be there.

I installed this mod on 2.0 Beta 3.1 Public successfully,
but when i test it on my own pc by sending a pm from test account to admin account,
i didn't get a notification, what should i do to make this mod take effect on smf 2.0 Beta 3.1 Public?

please help me, because i like this feature very much
thanks

[malcomxar]

Can you post a few screenshots to see how it is?

Many thanks!

[slackerpunk]

isn't this feature built-in to smf already under Profile > Private Message Options

--thanks for a great mod!

we have had members that never knew that they had received a PM, due to their browser killing pop-ups.  using the active window for the 'you have a  PM' message solves this problem.
