Forums mIRC Help Mode notices in current channel?

When I'm on certain servers, I like to set my mode +g, to avoid too many pm's. Is there any way to get the "XXXXXXX is messaging you, and you have umode +g." message in the current chat window, instead of in the status window, where I always seem to miss it?

If I've missed something deceptively simple, I apologize. Thanks for reading.

It sounds like this might be a server notice. If so, something like this might work

Thanks for the quick reply, but that didn't do it. No change in the bahavior - the message still shows in the status window. And I can't even set the "highlight" options to pick up that message.

You might try using the ON NOTICE event, rather than ON SNOTICE.. read /help ON NOTICE for the correct format..it's slightly different to that of ON SNOTICE.

That didn't do it, either. And when I use the On Notice like this:
on 1:NOTICE:*:?:{

echo -a $1-

halt

}
I don't see notices at all. Forgive my ignorance.

Can you supply us with a copy of the actual message that you get? The first problem is figuring out what kind of message is being sent.

Type /debug @debug and then receive one of those messages. Paste the text from the @debug window here so we can see what sort of message you are receiving. Make sure you don't post any text that has your passwords in it.

Here is the message that is given to me, when someone sends me a PM:

nick ~name@hostmask.isp.net is messaging you, and you have umode +g.

Here is the message from the debug window:

<- :irc.oink.me.uk 718 myname nick ~name@hostmask.isp.net :is messaging you, and you have umode +

If it makes it any clearer, this is the message the sender of the PM gets:

myname is in +g mode (server-side ignore.)
myname has been informed that you messaged them.

These messages only appear in the status/server window, even when I can get every other message in the active channel (whois, nickserv and chanserv info, etc).

It appears to be a RAW that you are receiving. Try this:

Hmm..If that's not a snotice, then I don't know what it is.

Based on this information the only reason I can see my original code not working, is the possibility of the ^ in the event line and the halt command later on...try removing those and see if it works.

That did it. Thanks, genius_at_work and RusselB for working through it with me! I appreciate the help.
