	Broadcast Message Expiration Version: 0.1 Note: This is NOT compatible with the "Replied to Guest" mod. This Mod allows admins to set how many days a Broadcast Message will be seen by members. First release on Jan 30. 2015 Installation: Use BoardMod or manually edit files. Instructions: In AdminCenter -> Forum Settings -> Personal Messages -> Broadcast Messages -> check box.

	OK, this mod conflicts in three places with the reply to all mod, and they are all on search and replace steps rather than add before/after steps, so changing the install orders will not help. So ... um ... refresh my memory. A broadcast message is a message sent from a guest to all the admin type members at once, usually about something they consider some sort of problem, right? Or am I not understanding what a broadcast message is? This is not a complaint about the existence of a mod ... I will never complain about the existence of any mod. It is just that at the moment, my mind is not grasping the purpose of this ... probably because I either don't 'get' broadcast messages to begin with, or something. So can you explain to me what this mod does, and why it is a good thing that it does them? Again, not because I think there is anything wrong with it, but just because I am not grasping the whole concept. Perhaps because my mind is on holiday today or something. Anyway, did want to point out the conflict between the two mods.

The problem is that Replied to Guest and Broadcast Expire need to modify the same code and I haven't done a combo yet. I think it was Ron who asked for a way to force Broadcast Messages to members to expire rather than having the admin have to remember to delete it.

	OK. Sorry if I was a pest ... I just wasn't understanding. Now I get it.

	Bug fixed Mod works with 2.6.12 (still incompatible with reply to all Mod.) Edited: InstantMessage.pm and MyCenter.pm are being refactored for 2.7.00 to allow better Mod compatibility. This will require IM and BM info to be turned into hashes so that Mod additions can be accessed by keys and anonymous arrays - not possible otherwise.
