Using in layouts

<body>

<?php
Msg::info( 'Information text is here' );
Msg::success( 'Success text is here' );
Msg::warning( 'Warning text is here' );
Msg::error( 'Error text is here' );
?>

<?php Msg::show(); ?>

<div class="container">
<!-- ... -->
</div>

Using in controller

<?php
if ( $model->save() )
{
	Msg::success( Yii::t( 'zr', 'Content has been duplicated.' ) );
	$this->redirect( [ 'update', 'id' => $model->id ] );
}
else
	Msg::error( $model->getErrors() ); // batch assign errors
