Add Skype/Xfire/Google Talk to IM List · **Released**: 10-17-2005

Well first off I would like to thank burnist for allowing me to re-release this hack as a product and change a few things so it will work with xfire and google talk also. Here is the original hack by burnist Add Skype To IM List.

The code is almost the same with very few changes all i really did was automate the query and adding the templates and added prases to it but you will still need to edit a few templates and have 1 file edit ONLY IF you want this feature.

Title: Add Skype/Xfire/Google Talk to IM List

Function: Adds a listings for Skype/Xfire/Google Talk along side the instant messengers in the profile, memberlist, postbit and Who's Online (WOL requires file edit)

Installation: - Load The XML file in the Product manager
- Upload im_skype.gif/im_xfire.gif/im_gt.gif to images/misc
- Do Template Edits
- WOL addition is listed in the Thread
- If it becomes available the WOL will be added by a hook (future version)
- Tested on vB 3.5 GOLD

OPTIONAL FILE MOD IF YOU WANT THIS FEATURE!!!

The following will add Skype/Xfire/Google Talk to the Who's Online IM list, it was not included in the hack file as it requires file edits and the rest of the add-on uses hooks so you can add this at your own discretion.

Depending on which version you install you will need to change a few things in the file edit.

Would love to see a 3.6.1 update for this add-on

domokun · #**113** 10-01-2006, 03:03 PM

Installed and working great. Only issue I have is the GoogleTalk icon does not show up on the Who's Online page. I included the code in the whosonlinebit for vB 3.5.4 but still nothing... What am I missing here?

Domokun

p.s. Here's what I have:

Code:

	<if condition="$vboptions['showimicons']">
		<td class="alt2" align="center" nowrap="nowrap">
			$userinfo[gticon]
			$userinfo[aimicon]
			$userinfo[icqicon]
			$userinfo[msnicon]
			$userinfo[yahooicon]
			$userinfo[skypeicon]
		</td>
	</if>

lemme know how tough it is to try to get something like this setup as well..

would it be as simple as say downloading the Googletalk zip and replacing every instance of "googletalk" in the XML with "hello" and then of course tweaking the google talk phrases and templates to fit accordingly to Hello?

maybe im just over simplifying the switch but I wanted to see if that made any sense to you guys...

Thanks

UPDATED INFO:
I went ahead and made the file changes as I mentioned above and tweaked all of the 'googletalk' and 'gticon' references etc over to 'hello' and 'hlicon' respectively as well and tweaked a couple of phrases in order for the popup box to display the correct info about Hello including steps to add member as a friend and where the software can be downloaded etc.

It all works well... So for those wanting another IM Client that is not in the list of the original mod, you can tweak it to your own needs. I myself am not a coder nor do i pretend to be one so if I can do it.... well uh... you get the picture... hehe...

nice

MjrNuT · #**117** 07-03-2008, 06:43 PM

Wow, this is an old one. I'm wondering if this works with v3.7.x. Anyone out there know this or provide an alternate hack that is current?

Thanks very much!!

espesso · #**118** 07-05-2008, 10:40 AM

Would love to see a 3.7.2 update for this add-on..

TingelT · #**119** 07-21-2008, 01:51 PM

Go online.php Line 245

PHP Code:


			
SELECT user.username, session.useragent, session.location, session.lastactivity, user.userid, user.options, session.host, session.badlocation, session.incalendar, user.aim, user.icq, user.msn, user.yahoo, user.skype,

And write after

PHP Code:


			
 user.skype,

For X-fire:

PHP Code:


			
user.xfire,

for Googel Talk

PHP Code:


			
user.googletalk,

The rest like described before.
And then the add-on could be up-to-date. I will test it soon....=)
