+:!: Two corrections are needed in **action.php** to make this old plugin work again:
+  - on line 38 replace\\ **''function register(&$contr)''**\\ by\\ **''function register(Doku_Event_Handler $contr)''**
+  - on line 42 replace\\ **''function _display_message(&$event, $param) {''**\\ by \\ **''function _display_message(Doku_Event $event, $param) {''**
+Also you can add this free plugin's [[https://comicslate.org/lib/plugins/message/admin.svg|SVG-icon]] for admin panel to the plugin's root. Don't forget to check the content, there 585 bytes of normal SVG-code

 ===== Discussion =====
+  * It says above that the message files are named e.g. ''error.txt'', shouldn't it say e.g. ''message_error.txt'' ?
   * Tell me...
     * It would be great to know where to put this in the DokuWiki directory structure. Sorry, I have a problem with the plugin manager not installing this plugin correctly.

     * It would be great to be able to manage these messages in the admin section. Not very friendly to edit the text file directly. Especially remotely.  --- //[[alex@ebookers.com|Alexandre Fremion]] 2009/02/23 18:36//

+==== Make message dismissable ====
+It would be nice to make the messages dismissable. Perhaps a checkbox besides each message in the admin section to toggle this function on/off. I personally see many use cases for this, but realise it is a long shot, considering that the developer hasn't updated his plugins in several years. Anyways, I am still happy with the plugin as it is now. Thanks!  --- [[user>molefunk|Eivind]] //2016-01-09 16:35//
+==== Display based on time ====
+While I'm at it, why not ask for time based messages as well? For instance, I'd like a message to appear only on a set date, and disappear the following day. I'm not expecting recurring messages, as that would likely be grounds for a new plugin, just the possibility to set a start and end time for each message.  --- [[user>molefunk|Eivind]] //2016-01-09 16:44//
+==== Disable when not logged in ====
+To prevent these messages from showing up when not logged in, modify the _display_message function in action.php:
+<code>
+    function _display_message(&$event, $param) {
+        global $conf;
+        global $ID;
+        $perm = auth_quickaclcheck($ID);
+            if($perm > AUTH_NONE){
+                $file=$conf['cachedir'].'/message_error.txt';
+                if (file_exists($file) && filesize($file)) msg(@file_get_contents($file),-1);
+                $file=$conf['cachedir'].'/message_info.txt';
+                if (file_exists($file) && filesize($file)) msg(@file_get_contents($file),0);
+                $file=$conf['cachedir'].'/message_valid.txt';
+                if (file_exists($file) && filesize($file)) msg(@file_get_contents($file),1);
+                $file=$conf['cachedir'].'/message_remind.txt';
+                if (file_exists($file) && filesize($file)) msg(@file_get_contents($file),2);
+            }
+        return;

+==== Requested compatibility with Translation Plugin ====
+It would be nice to introduce language divised notes for sites with multilanguage support.
+==== Bell icon for the admin panel ====
+{{https://comicslate.org/lib/plugins/message/admin.svg?24x24&recache |Bell icon for the admin panel}} Save this as %your_domain%/lib/plugins/message/admin.svg and look at %your_domain%/doku.php?do=admin. Freeware.
