Title:
  Allow $SESSION messages to be displayed in alternative places

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Wanting certain messages that get added to $_SESSION['messages'] to
  display in places other than the <div id="messages"></div> place at
  top of page.

  To handle this I am thinking that a 'placement' variable needs to be
  added to message items. This way one could easily specify the place on
  the screen where the message is to appear.

  So that the code to add a message to an alternative place, for example
  under the login auth box, would be:

    $SESSION->add_ok_msg($mymessage, false, 'loginbox');

  and in the login.tpl template have

    {dynamic}{insert_messages placement='loginbox'}{/dynamic}

  
  for all the session messages with out placement specification - they would get displayed in the default place.
