Create a more uniform success/error message display method #128

Closed johnstray closed 7 years ago

johnstray commented 7 years ago

A new common function will be created called display_message() that will handle displaying of success and error messages. This function will also prevent messages being displayed on the front end by first checking with is_frontend().

This new function will also be designed so that it makes use of GetSimple's built-in message display scripts so that all messages will have the same look/feel as messages displayed on any other pages.

This function will use the following format:

void display_message ( string $message [, string $type = 'info' [, bool $close = false ]] )

Parameters
-----------
  - message
      The message to be displayed
  - type
      The type of message to display. Can be one of: info, ok, warning, error.
  - close
      If set to true, the message will fade out after a delay.
      If set to false, the message will remain, but a close button will appear to the right.
