• Prompts..

    From Bucko@21:4/131 to All on Monday, April 15, 2019 22:31:46
    I know a ton of questions this week,, No wonder I am usually in the top 10 of posts! LOL I am looking to do the following with my board, I know it can be done in a menu but I just can't figure out how..Here is what I want to do..

    You hit G to log off. Instead of the usual Menu Yes, No feedback. I want
    this..

    Main Prompt: G

    Logoff BBS [yes/no].
    No would put you back at the main prompt, yes would drop you to the next
    line.
    Leave Feedback [yes/no], yes would of course leave feedback and no would let you continue logging off..

    I know in the menu options there is the -Y command and the -N command with
    the data being the text you want to ask. But how would I go about getting the answer to the question Y to logoff, to drop down to the next question, and
    the answer N to put me back at the main prompt.. Any help you guys can give
    me would be appreciated...

    No would put you back at the main prompt, yes would drop you to the next line.

    What do you mean by "drop you to the next line"? Do you mean a Yes answer to "Log off [Y/N] would bring up the "Leave feedback?" prompt?

    Mine is basically structured the same as Mystic's default log off menu,
    except that I've restyled it as a pop-up box with "Log off? Yes / No / Comment". Yes logs off, No returns to the main menu, Comment leaves a
    message. You can log in and select the default theme to try it. But I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for.

    Avon as usual you are the man!! Worked like a charm!! I never really realized just how powerful the menu system is on this BBS until I started getting
    really heavy into it with this whole theme system I am putting into place.
    Plus your vids as I have said in the past are a huge help!! Thank you!!

    I can't really claim any credit for that example. g00r00 pulled it together I just remembered it and used it to showcase what I thought you were after. So it's good that it helped you but credit to g00r00 where it's due :)

    Yes g00r00 gets the credit for writing it, but you get the credit for the support, I truly wish I knew only a quarter of what you know about this system...
