Forum:Sitenotice problem

On Symbolism Wiki I changed MediaWiki:Sitenotice to a new message. For some reason, it won't show up on my screen. I didn't press "dismiss". When I log out, it shows the message, but doesn't show the dismiss button. Please help! Thank you. Swannie 17:18, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
 * That's how it works unfortunately. The way an admin who changes the site notice can knows it works is by logging out, or logging in with another account (probably from a different computer). Anonymous (non-logged in users) can't dismiss the message.--Imaginationac (Talk | Edits | [mailto:imaginationac@gmail.com Email]) 17:41, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Okay, thanks for the info, Imaginationac! Swannie 18:22, 20 July 2007 (UTC)


 * When updating the sitenotice, be sure to update MediaWiki:Sitenotice id too. -- 18:38, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
 * What does MediaWiki:Sitenotice id do? I'm unfamiliar with this. Swannie 19:47, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Changing MediaWiki:Sitenotice id basically resets the sitenotice's dismiss. So when you update the sitenotice you change the id so that anyone who had dismissed the old sitenotice will be able to see the new one. If you don't increment it people who have dismissed the old sitenotice won't see the new one. ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) tricks Jul 21, 2007 @ 03:07 (UTC)
