Can't get system messages to be displayed to user
By Lyth_o
Hello,
I'm trying to have error messages such as "Username already existing", "Passwords mismatch" etc. displayed to the user. First I thought ELGG didn't handle this and then I tried directy on elgg itself and could get an error message. So I know it's possible, but I have no idea how to activate it or what DOM is necessary for it to work ! Anyone knows ?

You must log in to post replies.I have found what I need.
$messages = elgg_view('page/elements/messages', array('object' => $vars['sysmessages']));
That will retrieve the messages saved with register_error and system_message.
Sorry for asking. Hope it helps someone.
If you don't see system messages, your theme must have modified the page shell. I would look there first.
