User Away Messages
 

[ Feature Description ]
This hack allows users to easily set themselves as away via the Edit Profile page. An optional away message can be added along with the away status. Away messages are viewable at the top of the user profile (by the avatar/user picture). If a post is made when a user is in away mode, the user is automatically set off away mode.

[ Hack Concept ]
Credits to bira for making the original away message hack for vBulletin 2. This is a complete remake however.

[ Future Plans ]

• Show away status in postbit. (If you want, you can add this right now by using an xhtml conditional ($bbuserinfo[awaystatus] == 1)).

Enjoy! :)

i have a question..

in your instrictions you say:


[FIND]-->
fetch_profilefields(0);

[REPLACE WITH]-->
fetch_profilefields(0);

// Get Since Away Info
if ($bbuserinfo[awaystatus] == 1) {
$awaysincedate = vbdate($vboptions['dateformat'], $bbuserinfo['awaysince']);
$awaysincetime = vbdate($vboptions['timeformat'], $bbuserinfo['awaysince']);
$awaysincedisplay = " <b>(Since $awaysincedate - $awaysincetime)</b>";
} else {
$awaysincedisplay = '';
}
================================================== ========
[FIND]-->
fetch_profilefields(0);
[REPLACE WITH]-->
homepage = '" . addslashes(htmlspecialchars_uni($homepage)) . "',
awaystatus = $xawaystatus,
awaymessage = '" . addslashes(htmlspecialchars_uni($xawaymessage)) . "',
awaysince = $xawaydate,



I dont have a second one of the one in yellow. the only other fetch_profilefields i can find is:

fetch_profilefields(1);

but when replacing that i get an error on my "edit profile" pages

???

Sorry about that. Please re-download the file for updated instructions.

this hack is cool... btw, would be cool to have a popup to fill, or a dropin in the navbar so we fill it the same way we use the search block...
(did i say cool!)

awesome! worked like a charm!!

thanks so much!
