My opinion is that problems with data integrity in the database should be corrected, and not hidden by code

In that case your extension should check for data integrity and handle it - not just ignore it and wait for a fix which will not happen retrospectively.

PhpBB in such cases displays an error in trigger_error, that is, the forum will be completely blocked. If it's better then I can do
I just doubt it will turn out better

I can assure you that this was the case. It is still the case in my testforum which is using a copy of the DB.

HaioPaio, it was about a fix from 3Di. That variant improves the code, but does not relate to the problem, which was shown by

Me and a few of my friends jumped into this extension when you came out with it. That was nice having the envelope popup on a new pm.

And even though we could modify it to our like... we all deleted it from our sites for the one reason stated above in thecaretaker's post.

Sorry Татьяна5, but if the envelope can't stay open until you read the message then this extension is useless to us.

This is by design. Other people didn't like it when the envelope appeared all the time, every time the page was reloaded. It annoyed users

Then maybe it's perfect for those people.
I still like your work, just not this extension's function.
Run with it.

Could you not add a switch so there is a choice ?
Thanks :)

I loved the idea but I found that on an active board, most times I never seen the popup envelope. :)

My opinion is that forcing a member, whoever he is, to read a private message is not conceivable on a forum
