Can we skip the 'New Messages ' pop up that you see when you click on the Envelope on the Menu bar? We would prefer to go straight to the Inbox.
The reason is that we don't find it very obvious that if you want to write a message to several Friends you have to go via "New Messages' then 'Show All' and then finally you can choose 'Write'.
We would prefer if the envelope is a direct link to your 'Message Centre'. You will see any new messages in your Inbox straight away, but it is much easier to find 'Write'.
Please can you let me know if this is possible?
Also, is it possible to replace the Envelope Icon on the Menu Bar with Words?
Hi, Susan.
Few users ware asking about it... so here it's how you can change it:
1. Copy this file: ROOT/modules/mod_community_toolbar/tmpl/default.php
to:
ROOT/templates/your-template/html/mod_community_toolbar (if you don't have "html" or "mod_community_toolbar" folders, feel free to create them)
2. Edit file in:
a) In line 45 change this:
<a rel="tooltip" data-placement="bottom" class="joms-module-global-notif" href="javascript:joms.notifications.showWindow();" title="<?php echo JText::_( 'COM_COMMUNITY_NOTIFICATIONS_GLOBAL' );?>"><a rel="tooltip" data-placement="bottom" class="joms-module-global-notif" href="<?php echo CRoute::_( 'index.php?option=com_community&view=profile&task=notifications' );?>" title="<?php echo JText::_( 'COM_COMMUNITY_NOTIFICATIONS_GLOBAL' );?>"><a rel="tooltip" data-placement="bottom" class="joms-module-friend-invite-notif" href="<?php echo CRoute::_( 'index.php?option=com_community&view=friends&task=pending' );?>" onclick="joms.notifications.showRequest();return false;" title="<?php echo JText::_( 'COM_COMMUNITY_NOTIFICATIONS_INVITE_FRIENDS' );?>"><a rel="tooltip" data-placement="bottom" class="joms-module-friend-invite-notif" href="<?php echo CRoute::_( 'index.php?option=com_community&view=friends&task=pending' );?>" title="<?php echo JText::_( 'COM_COMMUNITY_NOTIFICATIONS_INVITE_FRIENDS' );?>"><a rel="tooltip" data-placement="bottom" class="joms-module-new-message-notif" href="<?php echo CRoute::_( 'index.php?option=com_community&view=inbox' );?>" onclick="joms.notifications.showInbox();return false;" title="<?php echo JText::_( 'COM_COMMUNITY_NOTIFICATIONS_INBOX' );?>"><a rel="tooltip" data-placement="bottom" class="joms-module-new-message-notif" href="<?php echo CRoute::_( 'index.php?option=com_community&view=inbox' );?>" title="<?php echo JText::_( 'COM_COMMUNITY_NOTIFICATIONS_INBOX' );?>">
Hi, Susan.
Yes, you can replace icons with words, just replace e.g <i class="fa fa-envelope"></i> with text.
