Buddy Messenger v1.1

Buddy Messenger v1.1

This hack add's a nice drop down menu to your index page (pminfo), It's a fast way to contact your buddy's via private message. It is color organized for Online buddies (Red) and Offline buddies (Gray). This hack isn't a final version, There are no reported bugs, but I would like to update it a little more. This hack works with all 2.x versions.

*This modification is originally for a buddy panel I am working on, But I decided to release this because some people might just want this as a separate hack, considering the buddy panel will have completely different options.

If there is any problems, please let me know. Thanks.

Since I installed this hack I have the private messages column appear to guests, with null stats. I'm assuming this was something to to with the modifications to index.php? Can anyone advise me on how to prevent this from happening?

Yes found it. Was searching a while for this one. Saw it on a site and it's great.

No doubt someone will speak out with a better way of doing this, my way is probably a bit of a fudge, but. . .

I got around this problem by replacing step 2 with:

PHP Code:

// Buddy Messenger v1.1
if ($enablepms==1 and $permissions['canusepm'] and $bbuserinfo['receivepm']) {
$datecut = time() - $cookietimeout;
$buddyuserssql=str_replace(" ","' OR user.userid='",$bbuserinfo[buddylist]);
$sql="SELECT DISTINCT session.lastactivity, user.userid,username,NOT ISNULL(session.sessionhash) AS online,invisible
      FROM user
      LEFT JOIN session ON session.userid=user.userid
      WHERE (user.userid='$buddyuserssql')
      ORDER BY username";
//$sql="SELECT * FROM user WHERE (userid='$buddyuserssql') AND invisible=0 ORDER BY username";
$buddys=$DB_site->query($sql);

$onlinebuddy="";
$offlinebuddy="";
while ($buddy=$DB_site->fetch_array($buddys)) {
  if ($userdone[$buddy[userid]]) {
    continue;
  } else {
    $userdone[$buddy[userid]]=1;
  }

  if ($buddy[online] and !$buddy[invisible] and $buddy[lastactivity]>$datecut) {
    $onoff="{buddyon}";
  } else {
    $onoff="{buddyoff}";
  }

  eval("\$var = \"".gettemplate("buddy_messenger")."\";");

  if ($buddy[online] and !$buddy[invisible] and $buddy[lastactivity]>$datecut) {
    $onlinebuddy.=$var;
  } else {
    $offlinebuddy.=$var;
  }
}


        eval("\$pminfo = \"".gettemplate('forumhome_pmloggedin')."\";");
}
// End Of Buddy Messenger v1.1

[Jitway]

[xpguy]

i get some weird things on mine : http://www.windowsos.com/forum/

and i have tryed replacing the files and deleteing the templates but still the same what do i do??

[Splitfyre]

I'm getting something weird. When I receive a message from a buddy, and then if I quote what he says, it will not show anything from the quote.

Have any of you, who've installed this hack, run into this?

[Splitfyre]

Cool hack except when it tells you whose added you. It says:

[code]
[DELETED USER]has added you to his/her buddy list.

This is a automated message. Please do not reply. it!

How can I ensure that it pulls the right username?
