# Informer Samples #
Informers serve to display entries of particular modules on any pages of any sites. For example, you can output the latest forum threads or most commented photos right on the main page. This helps to make your site more interesting and handy for the visitors. To create an Informer: 1. Go to Informers section on the main page of the Control Panel. 2. Press Create informer. 3. Select necessary module in the field with the pop-down list. (Additional options will appear depending on a module). 4. Set parameters of the options Number of entries and Number of columns. 5. Press Create. 6. Insert the obtained code of the type Code $MYINF_id$ 7. Informer appearance and the information for output can be edited in informer template. Type of information (uCoz codes) depends on the source module. List of codes, available for a certain informer, is under the form for editing template. With the help of the informer, you can output information both on pages of your website and on any other site in the internet. There are no explanations for the codes, used in informer template. This is because informers are a serious thing and you should not edit informers without good knowledge of HTML and uCoz system. Question-answer Where should I put the code of informer? *** *** *** *** *** *** I'm not active on the forum anymore. Please contact other forum staff.

i really cant understand...i have set the permission for guests and the can't absolutely anything in file catalo and i crete an informer for random materials and when i saved it it says me this "Guests" are not permitted to view the module but i am logged in as an admin...what am i doing wrong??
|
paragogos, open your sites user permissions and scroll down to file manager. For the first one allowing users to view the module make sure that guest is selected. Secondly check that in the admin-bars user settings you are viewing the site as an administrator.
Hope this helps,

paragogos, hello.
Informers designed to output the information, that can be viewed by the "Guests" user group. If there are some restrictions for "Guests" - informer will show the message, specified above. If you would like to use informers with restrictions for "Guests" - you need to give them almost all rights (to view all the info) and filter this info, using conditional operators in the templates of your website. But, it requires much time to implement all the restrictions in the templates. |
Hey there.
I'm trying to get my latest video to show up on my Blog page via Informers, but when I use $MESSAGE$, It wont show anything at all, it'll show the other informer items, such as the title, and such. But just not the message? I really need the latest video on the main page. http://rocksnotdead.do.am Code <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" class="eBlock"><tr><td style="padding:3px;"> <?if($MODER_PANEL$)?><div style="float:right">$MODER_PANEL$</div><?endif?> <div class="eTitle" style="text-align:left;"><a href="$ENTRY_URL$">$TITLE$</a></div> <div class="eMessage" style="text-align:center;clear:both;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;">$MESSAGE$</div> <?if($ATTACHMENTS$)?><div class="eAttach">Attachments: $ATTACHMENTS$</div><?endif?><div class="eDetails" style="clear:both;"> <?if($RATING$)?><div style="float:right"><?$RSTARS$('12','/.s/img/stars/3/12.png','0','float')?></div><?endif?> <?if($CATEGORY_NAME$)?>Category: <a href="$CATEGORY_URL$">$CATEGORY_NAME$</a> |<?endif?> Views: $READS$ | <?if($USERNAME$)?>Added by: <a href="$PROFILE_URL$">$USERNAME$</a> |<?endif?> Date: <span title="$TIME$">$DATE$</span> <?if($COMMENTS_URL$)?>| <a href="$COMMENTS_URL$">Comments ($COMMENTS_NUM$)</a><?endif?> </div></td></tr></table><br /> Thank you. |
