WILL THIS take up alot of bandwidth

[Forum Lover]

Actually this is not an error, u need to reformat it according to your own sizes. Si?uNoopy thanks for releasing it for free. :)

[haothiencz]

simple resize by width and height to whatever you need ;)

mark as installed

[veenuisthebest]

Excellent one Si?uNoopy and thank you for this.

1. The custom field SHOULD be set to type PRIVATE. So that the "Wid" code is not visible to everybody.
2. The setting variable should be type Boolean. Though FREE isn't wrong. But when yesno is the option code, its better to use Boolean type.

If somebody wants, you can download this cleaned .xml. Have removed the loads of instructions in the setting group as well. Its better in PC :D

And a better description for your Wid CODE custom field:-

Stay connected and chat via Yahoo Messenger from Tech555 profile. Learn more about <a href="http://messenger.yahoo.com/pingbox/" target="_blank">Yahoo Messenger Pingbox</a>. You can get your Wid CODE by visiting <a href="http://messenger.yahoo.com/pingbox/studio/" target="_blank">Yahoo! Messenger Pingbox - Studio</a>. Simply generate, then copy and paste the provided <strong>wid</strong> code in the following field.<br /><br />
Ex: <em>wid=hlkhsdgLKHHDlkahshaLKhdaKJH_g</em>

And ofcourse, replace my site's name with yours ;)

[haothiencz]

nice suggestion,

I have made some template edit to make it works on my 3.6.x

the field shoube be privated.

But what can you do with Wid id if even it set to be public ?

[veenuisthebest]

Well... I haven't tested it..! But don't you think if wid code is set to public. And someone copies it into his profile, and if the real user is online at the same time, then the one who copied can chat with that account as well.

Edit: alright, i just noticed that the wid-code still displays in the source page. So, its not a security issue. This probably means that Pingbox and Yahoo messenger have to opened/logged in from the same PC.

But still there's no harm in making it a private field as there's no meaning to display it to the world.

[M-Tuning]

Nice!

Why not a Meebo widget?

www.meebome.com

[Si?uNoopy]

@veenuisthebest : ah ha ok :D , i know but i deceived for release earlier :)) , i will updated in new version
,
@iogames : If you want i am ready added ;) :)

[baghdad4ever]

reserved for future

[haothiencz]

Why not a Meebo widget?

because with meebo you have to login at meebo site and this is the only way to be able to use widget.

Howz this? :D

Thats pretty cool.. I just tested that.

Is there a code change somewhere for it to appear on the left hand side in its own box ?

[veenuisthebest]

Find this in plugin code:-

'hook_location' => 'profile_left_last'

and replace witih this:-

'hook_location' => 'profile_right_first'

[BucWiLd]

what portion of the code do you enter? cant get it to show. i copied everything the instructions said to do, but no box shows. i get the block and the images but no pingbox it self.

[veenuisthebest]

1. Did you change fieldX from the plugin code ?
2. Did you create the Custom field and entered the correct WID CODE from Yahoo Pingbox site into the field.

i did create the field and it shows in my details.. can you give me an example of the code you entered in yours? i tried what he put in the directions but nothing shows. BY THE WAY I DID CHANGE THE FIELD NUMBER, I ONLY SAW 1 INSTANCE OF IT THOUGH.

[BucWiLd]

by the way great mod thanks

There's the problem. There are two instances of it. Just look carefully !

[vietfancy]

Nicely done bro!

Someone asked me to do this for him, and i haven't start yet hahaha and now look at this.

Great mod bro.

I dont see this code. Which template is it in? Or which file is it in?

[veenuisthebest]

not in template.

In the plugin... in the plugin manager.

[ArnyVee]

This is awesome! Thanks to SieuNoopy for the mod and Veenuisthebest for the modifications to the mod :D

Got it all installed and in the right side of the profile.

You can check it out here: http://www.waltdisneyboards.com/members/wdbarnyvee.html

I'm still wanting to test it with other folks on the boards to see how well it truly works. But, everything looks good up to now.

[ArnyVee]

Whoops....forgot to add another thing.

I noticed that the images when you had them in the 'visitor message' area of the profile went to 404 pages when you clicked on them. Are those going to the right URLs?

[veenuisthebest]

hi arny.. what images are you talking about ?

The profile CSS ?

It looks fine to me in my profile!

[ArnyVee]

When you actually set it up in the 'tabs' section of the profile. You have those two images (one above the 'pingbox' and the other below) and when you click on them, they take you to 404 screens.

Since I have it moved to the right like on your site, it doesn't cause me any issues. But, for those that choose to keep it on the 'tabs' section, it could cause some issues.

[ArnyVee]

So, just to make sure....do we adjust the size of the 'player' based on what we select during the 'create my pingbox' piece? Is there a way to make them all a default size so that we don't have someone create a huge one and throw off the look of their profile entirely?

Right now, the size is a bit small as you can only see one message or so. I'd like to make it 'taller' and see at least a couple of messages that folks type out.

[veenuisthebest]

The size is set as per defined in the plugin.

If you look at the plugin, its 270 tall right now. Make it 370 ;)
check out my profile for a demo.

[Si?uNoopy]

Thanks to veenuisthebest , i write your username in Supporter/Co Author

[ArnyVee]

Thanks Veenu! :D

By the way, does anyone have some grammatically correct banners for the images here?

[Roxie]

How can we get rid of the images at the top if we use the right side pingbox?

[ArnyVee]

Roxie, I resized the images and then uploaded the 'new' images to show correctly. But, I'm sure you can go into memberinfo_block_yahoo_pingbox and edit that part out.

Veenu/SieuNoopy, is that right?

[veenuisthebest]

thats nice of you. Thank you!

Veenu/SieuNoopy, is that right?

well yes, thats correct. It wouldn't be hard to remove those images, just a template edit.

Btw.. I myself did not upgraded to 3.7.003 when I saw that just those two unneeded images were added. I really could not understand the meaning of that.

[ArnyVee]

I left the images in, but I need the images to be corrected. The verbiage isn't correct. Can someone help me with that?

[BucWiLd]

for some reason this isnt working on firefox anymore? happen to anyone else. works fine on ie.. wierd. help

[ArnyVee]

It's worked as recently as yesterday for me on FF. What is happening on your BuCwIld?

[BucWiLd]

it just gives the image to create one, no pingbox. but on ie its fine

[ArnyVee]

I'm on FF and it's working for me. Check out my profile .... http://www.waltdisneyboards.com/members/wdbarnyvee.html

Post your profile and I'll see if it shows for me.

If you don't see it on my profile, it might be something on your particular browser blocking it or something.

[BucWiLd]

[ArnyVee]

No link in the post BuCwIld. You are logged into Yahoo Messenger, right?

because you are missing the flash plugin for firefox.

Get the latest one, restart browser, it has to work!

[BucWiLd]

thanks veenus, but i had tried that already and nothing..i dl opera and it also doesnt work in opera. only ie, wow

[ArnyVee]

For some reason I've had some folks getting errors today when trying to add their Wid #s to the user profile field. Anyone else having problems with this?

Edited: This may be an issue with my user profile fields. I'll update here if/when I find an issue. Thanks.

The reason can be that the users might be using just the wid code like 21421512h21hk12gkj1gjk12g

But the correct format to enter into the field is wid=21421512h21hk12gkj1gjk12g

[ArnyVee]

Actually Veenu, I noticed that the reason seemed to be that the custom user fields are generating the errors. When someone was trying to add their correct "Wid", it would state that one of the custom user fields was not entered correctly.

I recently went through an upgrade and it seems that the custom user fields are having problems. Aside from deleting and adding again the custom user fields, is there anyway that this can be fixed?
