Crap Detect - the name says it all!

We want to show a message to users if they use old browsers.
We want to disrupt and force the user to use the website with a recent browser version.
We want to tell the users to update their old crap browsers.
We want a really simple module with no extra settings or configuration for that.

We build Crap Detect for that.

There are multiple ways and also already some Drupal modules available in the wild, to detect and show a message to site users if they use an old browser.
Old browsers will be detected in a simple way and a non-dismissable message is displayed on top of the page.

Installation steps:

  1. Install and activate the module.
  2. place the custom crap_detect block in any theme region.
  3. translate the content of the block if needed.

Features:

  • Detects old browsers (currently just Internet Explorer) and browsers which do not support flexbox.
  • Multilanguage

How is crap browser detected?

  • window.navigator property (to detect internet explorer)
  • feature detection flexbox (any old browsers which does not support this "new" features)
