Text to Display

In this field you enter any text you wish to display to the user. The text can include a number of predefined tokens listed below, in addition to the standard DNN replacement tokens.

Edit

Page Views before auto hide

This defines the number of page views before the module is hidden from view. If you specify a value of 0 (zero) here, the module will only be hidden if a hide button is present and the user clicks it.

Content Version

The purpose of the content version number is to enable you to reset the module for new content. This will reverse any prior decisions the user has made with respect to the module. As an example, lets say you have some content in the module and you want to change the message. If you increment this number then the module will behave like you just added it to the page. If a user had previously viewed the prior version more than the alloted views or selected 'keep hidden', changing to a new version will reset the view count and reverse the keep hidden choice back to square one so that all users start seeing the content again. It's really intended as a shortcut so you don't have to continually add a new Welcome module to the page and delete the old one. You could use the version number to periodically add a new site tip so if a user had already viewed the previous site tip or hidden it, the new tip will show again regardless.
