Hello,

I am considering how to modify openemr in order to have some sort of server/system status bar at the very top.&nbsp; The idea is that every client browser connecting to openemr will be able to see any global messages by the systems administrator.&nbsp; (by Global, I mean Entire apache server-wide vs. just an individual site…)&nbsp; Messages like “The openemr server will be down on friday”.&nbsp;

I have found the frameset tags in both login\_frame.php as well as main\_screen.php.&nbsp; It appears that the addition of one row at the top about the size of GLOBALS might do it.&nbsp; At least for the container.&nbsp; I was thinking of incorporating it as some sort of global variable GLOBALS conditional.

It’s not clear to me if these are the only places to insert this information bar.&nbsp; Are there other locations that will bite me if I forget?&nbsp; Has this been considered elsewhere and implemented/removed?

The following files appear to do some of the top-level framset too, but I am not sure where or how they are used…

./interface/main/finder/patient\_finder.php  
./interface/main/finder/patient\_finder\_keyboard.php  
./interface/new/new\_patient.php  
./interface/patient\_file/patient\_file.php  
./interface/usergroup/usergroup.php
