This ?

Code: [Select]

/* Popup alert notification using Growl Notifications */
function growl_notification()
{
	global $context;
if (!empty($context['user']['mentions']))
	// Say they have unread alerts.
	echo '
	 <body ng-app="af_notify" ng-controller="growlCtrl">
   
    <growl-notifications></growl-notifications>

    <growl-notification>
      Psst ! You have unread notifications
    </growl-notification>

  </body>';
}

Works fine if I use only echo part. ie, remove if ( context ) in above code

$context['user']['mentions'] > 0

Yes. This is mention alerts. It cannot be configured. It will show you an alert window and take your attention to new like or @ mention or whatever it is. Besides, I am using AngularJS

PS : The display is not yet available

Code: [Select]

/* Popup alert notification using Growl Notifications */
function growl_based_notification()
{
	global $context;
    
   if (!empty($context['user']['mentions']) > 0)
	// Say they have unread alerts.
	echo '
   
	<body ng-app="af_notify" ng-controller="growlCtrl">
    
 
  
    <growl-notifications>

    <growl-notification>
      Psst ! You have unread notifications
    </growl-notification>

</growl-notifications>
    

  </body>';
}

1st: <body> is a tag with a specific meaning, you should not use it in the middle of a page "at random".
2nd: empty returns true or false, there is no reason to do a !empty($something) > 0

Try with:

Code: [Select]

	global $user_info;
if (!empty($user_info['mentions']))

Sorry, I didn't see the !empty check

Using this, but no Alerts display

Code: [Select]

/* Popup alert notification using Growl Notifications */

function growl_based_notification()
{
		global $user_info;
    
if (!empty($user_info['mentions']))
    
	// Say they have unread alerts.
       
        echo "<pre>" . print_r($user_info, 1) . "<pre>\n";
	echo '
    
  
	<html ng-app="af_notify" ng-controller="growlCtrl">
   
 
 
    <growl-notifications>

    <growl-notification>
      Psst ! &nbsp; You have unread notifications
    </growl-notification>

</growl-notifications>
   

  </html>';
}

growl_based_notification();

But when I add

Code: [Select]

 echo "<pre>" . print_r($user_info, 1) . "<pre>\n";

it shows the alert window. But does not vanish even if I logout

Where are you calling that function from?

Re: If ( there is an alert)

Reply #25 – October 20, 2015, 02:38:58 pm

I am simply copy pasting this whole code on index.template.php

You are declaring a function.
If you declare a function you have to call it in order to let it run.
So, where are you calling this function in index.template.php?

Yes, just after declaring it.

Then you are running it at the wrong time.
You have to call that function in a particular point of the template, not when the file is "included".
Most likely you have to call that function at the beginning of template_body_above or somewhere like that, but by all means inside a template_* function or through the template layers mechanism.
