code to display link to inbox from home page?

[PurpleCow]

Hi - where or which template has the code to display 'INBOX' link which appears on home page sidebar?

I need to move this to header. I tried looking in all templates but could not find. Thanks for any help.

If you have the simple messaging module enabled you should be able to use the following:

{if $user_authenticated eq true}
<li><a href="{$my_base_url}{$my_pligg_base}/user">Your Profile</a></li>
<li><a href="{$URL_simple_messaging_inbox}">Messages {if $msg_new_count gt 0}({$msg_new_count} New){/if}</a></li>
{/if}

You should be able to simply add that to your header.tpl template and it should work. You may need to remove the <li> </li> tags to work correctly with your template.

What this does is:

//Check if the user is logged in (If they are not logged in than they can't have a message).
{if $user_authenticated eq true}


//User is logged in. Display a list (<li>) that includes a link to the users profile
<li><a href="{$my_base_url}{$my_pligg_base}/user">Your Profile</a></li>

//User is logged in. DIpslay a list that includes a link to their messages.
<li><a href="{$URL_simple_messaging_inbox}">Messages

//Display message count. if count is zero display 0, otherwise display message count
{if $msg_new_count gt 0}({$msg_new_count} New){/if}</a></li>

//End auth check.
{/if}
