Hey everyone.
The other Directors and I have been testing a board function called "Notices"
Basically it allows us to set a criteria and then post a notice on the board when that criteria isn't met.
We are going to use it to encourage people to vote in our Constant Reader Awards for now and maybe other stuff later.
This will post notices at the top of the board for any polls in the Constant Reader Awards forum that you have not voted in. Once you vote, the notice will go away.
And remember: You get beam bucks for voting
Here is a screen shot of what it will look like with 5 notices up there.
The red circles:
Left one: This is a link to the poll you have not voted in, nice and easy.
Right one: This "Dismiss" button will allow you to dismiss the notice. Once clicked, it will only appear in you UserCP under the Misc category on the left. We did not want to bother anyone with these so if you just REALLY don't want to vote...you can make them go away.
We are hoping you will vote. Once you do, the individual notice goes away.
These notices follow you around wherever you are on the board at the top until you do something with them.
Comments/Suggestions here.
