From Nigel.Kendrick at kineo.com Thu Jul 4 12:10:31 2019 From: Nigel.Kendrick at kineo.com (Nigel Kendrick) Date: Thu, 4 Jul 2019 11:10:31 +0000 Subject: [ZendTo] Feature Request: Message of the Day References: Message-ID: Hi Jules, everyone, Apologies if I am missing the obvious and this already exists: Would it be possible to have a static (.txt?) MOTD file for quickly dropping in "maintenance window" or other temporary messages into the top of the home/login page as needed. On the few times I have had to put something up, I have hacked a line or two into the page layout, which is effective but not ideal. Thanks.

Done. The filename is set by a new preferences.php setting 'systemAnnouncementFilePath'. This is set to '' by default, so it will never display anything. If you make it point to a file that doesn't exist, or it can't read, or is empty, it won't display anything. Otherwise the contents of that file (which may contain HTML tags) will be shown as a "Notice" at the top of the login, logout and main-menu pages as you suggested. It will be in the next beta. Cheers, Jules.

Has anyone done an upgrade from Stretch yet? Any "surprises" along the way? I haven't yet upgraded my Zendto host but did one of my MailScanner boxes (a test box fortunately) and had a couple of fixes that were a bit problematic at first such. In particular, the PHP module in apache disappeared and I had to re-add it in with its new name. I.e., php7.0.conf became php7.3.conf I'm sure there will be that issue and maybe others with zendto since php is at the core of the package.

This beta version is *very* close to being a production release. I have improved the announcement feature, so that you can very easily change the title of the announcement as well as the text. If the file pointed to by the 'systemAnnouncementFilePath' has 2 or more lines, then the 1st line is used as the title, with all the rest used as the content. If there is only one line, it will drop back to its default "Please note" title. Note that both the title and the content text can include HTML tags, and there are CSS styles ".systemAnnouncementTitle" and ".systemAnnouncementText" which are used solely for this feature. Feel free to over-ride my definitions by adding your own definitions to /opt/zendto/www/css/local.css. Cheers, Jules. On 07/07/2019 5:15 pm, Jules via ZendTo wrote: > P.S.
