MessageOfTheDay Plugin

Introduction

The MessageOfTheDay (MOTD) plugin for AVideo allows site administrators to set a message that will be shown to users when they access the site. This can be a useful feature to broadcast important announcements, updates, or any relevant information.

Types of Messages

In the MessageOfTheDay plugin, there are two types of messages:

1. Scheduled Messages:

   • These messages can be set to display on specific dates.
   • It's possible to target these messages to all users or to a specific user group.
   • To set a scheduled message, click on the edit button.

2. Default Message:

   • This is a generic message that will be shown to all users.
   • The uniqueness of this message is that it repeats every day unless overridden by a scheduled message.
   • To set this default message, click on the edit parameters button.

Usage

Setting a Message

For both types of messages, you have the flexibility to set both a title and a text. This allows you to capture the attention of your users with a compelling title and then provide detailed information or instructions in the text.

Conclusion

The MessageOfTheDay plugin for AVideo is a powerful tool for site administrators to communicate directly with their users. Whether you want to convey something important on specific dates or have a generic daily message, this plugin offers the flexibility to do both. Always remember to craft your messages in a clear and engaging manner to ensure maximum impact.
