Integrated MSN Hack · **Released**: 06-29-2002

Hi guys. I made this hack because I was sick of just having the standard messenger fields, so I decided to make a hack that integrated the MSN Messenger Handle professionally in like the other ones. Some screenies below:

Register & Edit Profile:

User Profile View:

Postbit View:

As you can see this is integrated, and is quite different from Anime-loo's hack.

Install instructions updated!
Extra ability added - View MSN Info in Private Messages

Installed at UZI Talk Forums. Thanks! :banana:

Does this one work with MSN 5?
The other hack seems to be having problems with that version, has any one tried?

i've added on some things to make this a little more complete. gives search functionality in memberlist.php as well as the admin user section.

===============
in memberlist.php
===============

find:

Code:

aim

after it add:

Code:

,msn

then find:

Code:

    if ($aim!="") {
      $condition.=" AND aim LIKE '%".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($aim))."%' ";
    }

after it add:

Code:

    if ($msn!="") {
      $condition.=" AND msn LIKE '%".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($msn))."%' ";
    }

then find:

Code:

    if ($userinfo[aim]!="") {
      eval("\$userinfo[aimicon] = \"".gettemplate("aim")."\";");
    } else {
      $userinfo[aim]="&nbsp;";
    }

after it add:

Code:

    if ($userinfo[msn]!="") {
      eval("\$userinfo[msnicon] = \"".gettemplate("msn")."\";");
    } else {
      $userinfo[msn]="&nbsp;";
    }

then find:

Code:

&aim=$aim

after it add:

Code:

&msn=$msn

===============
in admin/user.php
===============

find:

Code:

	  makeinputcode("AIM Handle","aim");

after it add:

Code:

	  makeinputcode("MSN Messenger Handle","msn");

then find:

Code:

aim,

after it add:

Code:

msn,

then find:

Code:

'".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($aim))."',

after it add:

Code:

'".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($msn))."',

then find:

Code:

	  makeinputcode("AIM Handle","aim",$user[aim],0);

after it add:

Code:

	  makeinputcode("MSN Messenger Handle","msn",$user[msn],0);

then find:

Code:

,aim='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($aim))."'

after it add:

Code:

,msn='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($msn))."'

then find:

Code:

  makeinputcode("and AIM Handle contains","aim");

after it add:

Code:

  makeinputcode("and MSN Messenger Handle contains","msn");

then find:

Code:

  makeyesnocode("Display AIM ID","displayaim",0);

after it add:

Code:

  makeyesnocode("Display MSN ID","displaymsn",0);

then find:

Code:

 and $displayaim == 0

after it add:

Code:

 and $displaymsn == 0

then find:

Code:

  if ($aim!="") {
    $condition.=" AND INSTR(LCASE(aim),'".addslashes(strtolower($aim))."')>0";
  }

after it add:

Code:

  if ($msn!="") {
    $condition.=" AND INSTR(LCASE(msn),'".addslashes(strtolower($msn))."')>0";
  }

then find:

Code:

,aim

after it add:

Code:

,msn

then find:

Code:

		if ($displayaim==1) {
			echo "<td><p><b><span class='tblhead'>AIM ID</span></b></p></td>";
		}

after it add:

Code:

		if ($displaymsn==1) {
			echo "<td><p><b><span class='tblhead'>MSN ID</span></b></p></td>";
		}

then find:

Code:

			if ($displayaim==1) {
				if ($user[aim]=="") {
					$user[aim]="&nbsp;";
				}
				echo "<td><p>$user[aim]</p></td>";
			}

after it add:

Code:

			if ($displaymsn==1) {
				if ($user[msn]=="") {
					$user[msn]="&nbsp;";
				}
				echo "<td><p>$user[msn]</p></td>";
			}

then find:

Code:

			makehiddencode("aim",$aim);

after it add:

Code:

			makehiddencode("msn",$msn);

then find:

Code:

			makehiddencode("displayaim",$displayaim);

after it add:

Code:

			makehiddencode("displaymsn",$displaymsn);

==================
In memberlist template
==================

find:

Code:

	<td align="center" bgcolor="{ tableheadbgcolor }"><smallfont color="{ tableheadtextcolor }"><b>AIM</b></smallfont></td>

add under it:

Code:

	<td align="center" bgcolor="{ tableheadbgcolor }"><smallfont color="{ tableheadtextcolor }"><b>MSN</b></smallfont></td>

==================
in memberlistsearch template
==================

find:

Code:

<tr>
	<td bgcolor="{ secondaltcolor }"><normalfont><b>and AIM Handle contains</b></normalfont></td>
	<td bgcolor="{ secondaltcolor }"><normalfont><input type="text" class="bginput" size="35" name="aim" value=""></normalfont></td>
</tr>

add under it:

Code:

<tr>
	<td bgcolor="{ firstaltcolor }"><normalfont><b>and MSN Messenger Handle contains</b></normalfont></td>
	<td bgcolor="{ firstaltcolor }"><normalfont><input type="text" class="bginput" size="35" name="msn" value=""></normalfont></td>
</tr>

==================
in memberlistbit template
==================

find:

Code:

	<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}">$ userinfo[aimicon]</td>

add under it:

Code:

	<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}">$ userinfo[msnicon]</td>

*note: you will need to remove the spaces (" ") between the {} on the template mods for the colors. also, fix the secondalt and firstalt colors to suit your board (i use the same for both, so i didn't need to make any fixes).

Before i go throught the install, it is important to first determine if the actual handle is EXPOSED to general users? I scanned all threads and haven't found the answer. I LOVE the concept.

jibious · #66 03-31-2003, 02:47 PM

if someone puts in their handle and saves their profile, then yes, it will be exposed to general users. its just like AIM and Yahoo and ICQ defaultly setup with vBulletin...

thody · #67 04-10-2003, 03:11 PM

Everything seems to work ok, except the javascript for sending a message. I just get a js error. Anyone else?

u2page · #68 04-15-2003, 08:02 PM

I'm getting an error too, with MSN 5. Any suggestions?

u2page · #69 04-15-2003, 08:33 PM

I found the problem. The script is called InstantMessage in the javascript that is included in headinclude, but it is linked as DoInstantMessage in the link to the icon on the posts. Just change one or the other, that solves it.

deepdark · #70 04-18-2003, 08:50 PM

when i want to sen a message via link in showthread is making some error?

kdog316 · #71 04-19-2003, 05:50 PM
