Acc Messages

Divi 5 only

Acc Messages is a Divi 5 module. There is no Classic Builder version.

Purpose and when to use​

Acc Messages is the member inbox. It lists conversations, opens one, and lets the member reply, start a new message, archive, or block. Place it on the Messages account post. Activation already places one there.

The page stays hidden until messaging is turned on. Logged-out visitors see nothing.

Choosing a member in New message opens that conversation with the reply box ready. If they already have a conversation, that conversation opens. There is no extra browser prompt.

Before you configure this module​

  • Enable messaging is on.
  • You are editing the Messages account post in the Visual Builder.

Quick setup​

  1. Add Acc Messages, or select the one already on Messages.
  2. Adjust the empty states and button labels if the defaults do not fit the site.
  3. On the Design tab, style the shared Buttons group, then override New message, Back, Send, Archive, or Block when one button should look different.

Acc Messages design settings

Message boxes use the same field styling as other Divi form fields. Buttons is the shared style. The named button groups override that style for one button.
