# 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.

aareez, we have checked your website. when you log in as Guest you have no access to view Forum. This is what is causing difficulties. Informers will show only those entries, which are allowed to be viewed by Guests.
As we said - set permission for groups. CP->Users->User groups->Set permission for all groups-.Forum->Read forum (ability to enter the forum)->Save |
aareez, and it will not. Because "Guests" are not permitted to view the module. This is what I see, when log into your website.

Vallina, yes it is possible , go to CP ---> Informers ---> Create ---> Users --->Num.of Photo's and edit it to your needs , and you can hide it from guest with conditional operators like this:
Code <?if ($USER_LOGGED_IN$) ?> your code <?else?><?endif?> To busy building a passive income online ;)

Vallina,
Quote (Vallina) There is no point of guests being able to see it. Keep in mind that Guests will still be able to see the entry itself, because Informers show only the entries that can be seen by Guests. But of course, the entries output by the Informers will not be seen by Guests, if you follow Animorph's advice. |
All I get is
Code "Guests" are not permitted to view the module Also, it is through CP -> Tools -> Informers, correct? Post edited by Vallina - Friday, 2011-04-15, 3:17 AM

Vallina, did you followed Animorph's advise?
Quote (Animorph) Code <?if ($USER_LOGGED_IN$) ?> your code <?else?><?endif?> Or did you just but informer code on your page?
Quote (Vallina) Also, it is through CP -> Tools -> Informers, correct? Correct  Post edited by Jan - Friday, 2011-04-15, 7:47 AM

Vallina, once again. You need to remember that Informers output only those entries that can be seen by Guests. If in your permissions for Guests group it is set that they can't view this module(Photo Album), it means that Informers will not be able to output the entires from that module.
I suggest you hide photos with the help of conditional operators (not group restrictions) and then use Informer to output them. But you will also need to use conditional operators to hide the output by Informer entries from Guests. |
sup agian. still having troubles with thooose boxes. ive tried everything. but it just dsnt work. ive tried rename/delete stuff in the CSS but the the deisng gets messed. i would like to have the uCoz boxes on the left side of my website saying Latest news etc.. but the box will just get like 'behind' the original box.
If u see at the left side of the website the 1 called "Latest News", that is a ucoz box with a $MYINF_1$(i want to see the news enrtie module there) tag inside but still it shows the "new template online" stuff. it gets like behind it. www.intuitive.ucoz.net any ideas?

Anglhz, first of all, your website is under construction and we can't check anything. So it will be better if you open it for us to see. Second of all, please be more specific. It is really difficult to understand. A screenshot will be very useful.

hi, i have a problem with an informer:
i've created an informer that shows the last site news, and the number of views and comments. (to show number of views of a news i've used $READS$, is correct?) The problem is that the number showed by $READS$ doesn't change. The number of views (under the news) increases, but in the informer the number doesn't change.. There's something wrong? Thank you!
