BB| Messenger 1.5 · **Released**: 07-08-2004

Please press install if you install this hack

Support Can Not Be Given For This Hack

BB|Messenger is a user to user messenger system for vb3 that runs off your user database.

This hack as been made for my own forums and has not been tested on any other forums, so its very likely that errors might be found on other system set up's.

To Install:

upload all the files in the same way that they are in side the zip.

once all files are upload load the page http://www.yourdomain.com/bbmessenger/
note that the address before bbmessenger/ will be the path to the folder on your site.

Follow the install page and your all done.

The only other thing that needs doing is the editing of the address's in the marquee.php file that you upload to your forums root.

Find:

PHP Code:


			
 echo "<tr>\n";

    echo "<td width=\"$marquee_width\" style=\"border-bottom: 1px inset #000000; background-color: #4C6CA4\" onMouseover=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#607DAE';\" onMouseOut=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#4C6CA4';\">\n";

    echo "<font size=1 face=\"Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica, Times\">\n";

    echo "<b><a href=\"http://community.ultimate-music.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=" . $latestthread['threadid'] . "\" target='_blank'>" . $latestthread['title'] . "</a></b><br>\n";

    echo "Started by: <a href=\"http://community.ultimate-music.net/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&username=" . $latestthread['postusername'] . "\" target='_blank'>" . $latestthread['postusername'] . "</a><br>\n";

    echo "Last Post by: <a href=\"http://community.ultimate-music.net/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&username=" . $latestthread['lastposter'] . "\" target='_blank'>" . $latestthread['lastposter'] . "</a><br>\n";

    echo $numreplies;

    echo "\n</font>\n";

    echo "</td>\n</tr>\n\n";

and edit it to meet your own needs.

User linking to the messenger

put a link anywhere you like on your forums linking to /bbmessenger/index.php

How To's

To edit the colours edit the css in the files in the style folder.

Support

Can not be given via my self due to work load please do not e-mail or pm asking for help in anyway because the reply will more and likely be no, this does not stop user's from helping each other with probs in this topic and if a fix or addon is made i will update the zip with it up on the asking of doing so.

Fix's

1) check your vBulletin cookies Prefix in vb's config file is set to bb like below:

// Prefix that all vBulletin cookies will have
// For example
$cookieprefix = 'bb';

if not set it to the above, if setting it to the above gives you errors with other hacks follow the steps on page 3 for editing messengers cookie call's.

this fix's the login error.

2) https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=164 Zip will get updated when next version is out.

also, when clicking on a user's name through the chat window it takes you to this link http://www.rulersofthematrix.com/forum/bbmessenger/{var:boardmemberprofilelink}21

rather than the user's profile (which in this case is userid 21)

Invalid SQL:
SELECT title, data
FROM datastore
WHERE title IN ('options', 'cron', 'forumcache', 'usergroupcache',
'stylecache', 'arcadesettings', 'smiliecache', 'bbcodecache',
'iconcache', 'userstats', 'birthdaycache', 'vbindex_setting', 'vbindex_version',
'vbindex_config')

mysql error: User 'sypher' has exceeded the 'max_questions' resource
(current value: 72000)

mysql error number: 1226

Please upload this file over the top of the other one in the bbmessenger/sources/boardmodule folder

a line from the file had gone walk abouts.

hey c., this is sadly still a problem... you think you can point me to a file to look for possible errors? I hate putting all the burden on you... I'm a CS student at UT Austin so I can figure it out, I just need to understand your structure better.

its more and likely to do with your host.

for started your host only lets you call the database so many times in a set time thats why you get the error below sometimes and messenger makes a far few call's to it when its in use by someone because it as to check database for any new messages.

no theres no fix, you need to recall this is a messenger and due to that its going do alot of database call's when in use by people.

its like having a forum installed but people posting a topic every few sec because its live one to one chat.

Hi C. Birch,

A possible bug:

If a member chooses not to check "Remember Me" a cookie is not saved, and thus the IM popup thinks the person is not logged in, as the code is unable to find the cookie information.

Is this correct?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
