Perhaps you use Netscape?

It looks like it only works with IE (perhaps Opera).

Also give me an URL where I can look at the result of your hacking!

Well, im using IE (MSN messenger = Microsoft Network messenger so its bound not to work in netscape :rolleyes:)

My url is http://www.zpicz.f2s.com/forum/ and i have had other people look at it and they say it has had no effect either...

thanx for your help ;)

Great Hack !:D

I used 10mins to finish this hack :)

mikezs, there is a script error on your page!

Do you use any other Javascripts?

I seemed to have got it to work now :D

1. I just copyed the contents on messengecentre.php to the end of the script (instead of the include).

2. I added the stuff that was supposed to go in the "messagecentre" template into the forumhome template, and it all worked :D

I have no idea what the javascript error was... Try pressing refresh+[shift], f2s has been slightly dodgy with dealing out files (you might get index.php but not msn.vbs

Thanx alot 4 all your help ;)

i have more or less the same problem as mikezs although it seems to be intermittant (thats prob. spelt wrong).

I have no script errors or anything and i followed the instructions exactly.

It seems to only appear every now and again, always appears when i click 'Mark All Forums Read', until i refresh or something and then it goes again :(.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated, Thanks!

forget that, sorted now :p.

It wont work just using the method in the instructions (unless i read wrong) so i had to do some more editing of the 'ForumHome'.

Thanks anyway!

TOP HACK

I read the intructiosn again and look if there is an error!

You know, when you write such instructions you sometimes forget to explain things which are totally clear to you, but the reader can't know!

Hmm

I have only the variable $messagecenter added to my forumhome template and everything works!

And that step is explained in the instructions!

Christian:
Need some help I want to add something to your hack.

If you go to my site at http://forums.realwebhost.net
go to the bottom you will see your message center.
I have a news/stock quote script from msn that I have on one
of my other sites. I want to add it in the same table with the messagecenter to right. There is alot of empty space there. I believe I would have to add it to your messagecenter template somehow. If I show you the script could you help or look at it?

Joey

Yep. but it can take a few days. I have the final tests of my semester at the moment!

I do it tomorrow or at the weekend, OK?

Send the script to admin@knowledge-emporium.com and I test it with my test style and look if and how it works!

ÇÞæá æÑÇå ãÇÊÚÞáæä¿

ok the hack works greta

but now at the top of the page it shows this







what can i do to get rif of this?

post your url

i told ya what happens

hehe
sorry dude don't work on private boards.

k thanx for the help

:confused:

can anyone help??please:confused:


thanx!

Most time such errors are caused by using different script which call the same functions!
First of all look what scripts you have installed and then look for twice called functions!

do u mean

what hacks i have installed?

ahh got it

was the index file

:rolleyes:

any demo ?

You can see a demo at The Knowledge Emporium Forums! :)

I love this hack. We're in the middle of putting it on our new forum. I was just wondering, is there a simple way of making the usernames list after each other and wrap, or has anyone done this. It would be a massive help.

Cheers, Matt

Can someone pls give instructions on how to add the msn centre on vbportal. I have seen this done but dont know how to go about doing it.

thank you

do you think that it is possible to include the "add buddy" feature to this hack?

EXAMPLE:
just like when you get a email to your hotmail account, from let's say someone you don't know but who has Microsoft Passport. if you notice in viewing the email, it has a, "Add whoever@hotmail,com to your Contact List." by their name. I would think thank you would be able to grab that code as well somehow, and manipulate it so it could be place in the actual posts by your members, kinda like "Add to ICQ" etc...

You think you know how to do this? I believe in you! :D

by the way.. thanks for this excellent hack!

Christian,

Good job. Unfortunately I am not a programmer worth talking
about, but is it not possible to do the same as the others, indicating the status with MSN messenger per user per post?

This is not in any way a hint to change the code or develop a new hack. Just some ideas on how it could be done.

I have no idea as to the performance implecations of it all and any other aspects. As I said, I'm not a programmer.

If anyone does want to develop such a thing or Christian would
like to integrate it, I would be as happy as a pig in s**t

eg:

you already have the MSN Messenger center...
here you know if your buddies are online.
So it looks as if we have all the data we need.. this data I think can then be used for the whole thread (all posts in thread)

so some things to think about:

• make a new user custom field eg: 'MSN access id'
• some coding required
  - if the 'MSN access id' is in the 'MSN Messenger center' then show the icon that represents the user (you have it already)
  - else don't show a thing.
• it should work integrated with the way it is currently done I think... $post[msnbit] ..

;)

OK Chris how do we get a online/offline status button to work for hotmail as icq,aol,and yahoo,

joey

no ones replied to my post :( :( :(

Hi Christian,

very nice hack!

Before I consider to integrate it, I want to add an "MSN Messenger Name" - field to the a.m. templates, as it is done with ICQ/AIM/Yahoo Messenger.
If enough users on my board use MSN i.e. do enter their info I would really love to integrate it.

So: How to add this field before integrating your hack; Preparing for your hack...

Thanks,
-Tom

Hi webhost,

I see, okay - that's fine.

I now have an extra field "MSN Messenger Name" in the register/modifyoptions & memberlist templates.
But they are sorted not the way I need it.

It's like:

• ICQ Nummer:
• AOL Instant Messenger Name:
• Yahoo Messenger Name:
• Birthday:
• Signature (on profile]
  
• MSN Messenger

Any chance to get it out of the $customfields
right under the other Messenger fields?
Thanks,
-Tom

Cyrus,

Because vbPortal is a total integration system, you really need to ask your vbPortal related questions in the vbPortal support forums here: http://www.phpportals.com/index.php

now the colored online users bit doesent work!! anyone found a way to have both running? one hack killing the other... :(

never mind, my bad, i edited the backup copy of index.php and posted that up... DOH!

I installed the msn hack, and it makes my world time hack go insane...like it goes half way big screen...

www.moneytec.com/forums/

Just play around with the colspan values of the 2 tables.

You find them in the templates which are created for the certain hacks!
