Widget for displaying web user flash messages

Flash is a modest widget that allows you to render web user flash messages easily.

Deprecated ¶

A newer version of this extension, TbAlert, is now part of my Bootstrap extension.

Usage ¶

To set up the widget you simply need to download the extension, place it in your application's extensions folder (create it under protected if it doesn't exist).

Rendering the widget is easy, you need to add the following code snippet to your main layout (Assuming you placed the extensions under /protected/extensions/flash) :

<?php $this->widget('application.extensions.flash.Flash', array(
    'keys'=>array('success','error'), 
    'htmlOptions'=>array('class'=>'flash'),
)); ?><!-- flashes -->

After you've configured the widget it will display your flash messages.

What about ajax messages

Does this extension work out of the box with AJAX flash messages? For example, deleting something in a cGridView.

@peterjkambey

You need to set the correct category when setting the flash message and then configure yii-flash to display that category. By default the error category is called 'error'.
