    Need: Idea for implementing a one-time popup -OR- notification I can show/hide with jQuery.

    I’m thinking of a couple conditionals that first evaluate whether or not the user is logged in/logged out.

    IF LOGGED OUT.
    Show once per session (although I’m using cookies only)

    IF LOGGED IN.
    Show once if not belonging to a particular member group.
    If you belong to the correct member group, don’t show.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Ok I’ll start the discussion. Creating a message based on a conditional no problem. The real issue here is how annoying to be to the end-user.

    I’m thinking the only way to really address this is through cookies.

    Anyone have other thoughts??
