Alert
=====
Tools/Alert
^^^^^^^^^^^
You may find it necessary to display an Alert on your screen, ie: car headlights
left on, parent needed in nursery or anything else somebody may need notified
about.This is easily done using the Alert which is accessible from the top Menu
under Tools/Alert.
`Alert text` Enter the message you want displayed in this box.
`Parameter` This box is used for words you want to insert into the alert text.
You add the Parameter text into the alert text using “<>” (without quotations).
Anywhere in the Alert text that you add these two symbols, <> side by side, will
insert any text you have in the parameter box into the Alert message.
**Examples of use**
`Alert text` The owner of the vehicle with license plate number <> your lights
are on.
`Parameter` HNN432
These two settings will display like this:
The owner of the vehicle with the license plate number HNN432 your lights are on.
You could also reverse this example:
`Alert text` HNN432 <>
`Parameter` left their lights on.
`Will display like this` HNN432 left their lights on.
If you use the same alerts on a regular basis, Save your Alert and you will have
access to the alert with a click of the mouse. You may also click on New for a
new alert or Delete an alert you do not need.
When you are ready to Display your Alert you have two options. Clicking on
Display will display the Alert and the Alert Message window will remain open.
Clicking Display & Close will display the alert and close the Alert Message
window.
All details of the display, font, color, size and position are adjusted from the
top Menu item Settings/Configure OpenLP, Alert tab and the instructions here.
(link to configure)
`Please note` Alert Message is a Plugin that needs to be Active in the Plugin
List for use.

OpenLP has many plugins you may choose to use. By default they are all checked
except Allow remote access. These plugins are explained in detail in the manual

OpenLP has several plugins to choose from. By default, all plugins are enabled,
except the *Remote Access* plugin. For more information on these plugins, please
read the :doc:`mediamanager` section in the manual. If you are not sure of which
plugins to enable or disable, leave the selection as-is. You can easily activate

formatted. If you already have songs in your database, adding these samples will
not overwrite your database. You may check the box for English or Deutsch and
click Next.
OpenLP provides some sample songs in a few languages for downloading and
importing into your new song database. This is convenient for new users who do
not have any songs yet. If you already have songs in your database, OpenLP will
simply add these sample songs to your database, leaving your existing songs
intact. Once you are happy with which songs you'd like, click :guilabel:`Next`.

continue on without selecting any of them by clicking Next.

the check box next to each Bible, select each Bible that you would like
installed. If you do not wish to install any Bibles, simply leave them all
unchecked. Once you are happy with your selection, click :guilabel:`Next` to
continue.

songs, this is useful if you are a new user and would like to see how the themes
are formatted. You can easily delete the themes at a later time if you do not
have a use for them. Click Next.
Some sample themes are also available for download and installation into OpenLP.
As with the Bibles, simply check the check box next to each theme to select it.
If you are a new user, these themes can help you understand how themes work. If
you are happy with your selected themes, click :guilabel:`Next` to continue.
