The <headers> tag is optional. If it is missing a generic message will appear in the ribbon
![Image](http://www.nevigo.com/forumcontent/MaintenanceRibbon.jpg)
You may specify the texts in multiple UI languages, but the Lang="en" must always be present, because it is the ultimate fallback language. You are free to use "your" language message here, but articy:drafts UI language switch uses the given Lang attributes to select the proper text.
The <Text> tag contain the full message text. Here you can use simple BB markup add some emphasis to the dates for example

After writing this XML file you should place it into the DB folder of your articy:server installation. The articy:server will scan this folder every 10 minutes and pick up the message. If a change is detected any connected clients gets the message pushed to them as well as any new connected client.
If you want to change the polling frequency or the path use for searching you can use the following extra configuration parameters of the articyserver.cfg file
- Code: Select all
; polling interval Time in Minutes, min 1, max 300
-mm.interval 1
; multiple search paths possible, separate with ';', first hit is used
-mm.searchpaths D:\Messages;C:\Program Files\articyserver 2\db
A server restart is required to use any changed configuration parameter, changing a message is possible "on-the-fly"
