Integration with vBulletin - Enhanced Jabber (XMPP) Integration

Modification is compatible with vBulletin 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8.

As Jelsoft still hasn't been able to integrate Jabber as normal IM Field, I had to make my own hack. This Add-On is based on the Jabber Integration by Patria, but completly rewrite this Mod.

What is different in this Add-On?

This Add-On gives you a lot more than just an IM Field for Jabber. It
allows users to send Jabber Messages (see screenshot 2) and can send
Birthday wishes via Jabber, if the JID has been entered by the user. New
post, thread and PM notifications, are integrated too, duuh!

In future we plan seperate Setting for Jabber and E-Mail.

The PHP code changes in EN-codechangs.txt are optional and is not required for running this hack.

Included Languages:

• German
• English
• Russian

Version History:

Version 1.23 RC 4:

* PHP 5.3 Compatibility Fixes for xmpphp
* Bugfixes from Charles_1 included (Thanks to Charles_1)

Thank you to flosoft for the English Translation and zCarot for the Russian Translation.

For Auto-Template Changes you need the Template Modification System from Andreas. If is this not installed, read the EN-templateedits-enhanced_jabber.txt for Template Changes.

[Alfa1]

Will you be adding other notifications as well?

Couldn't you enhance this to include a jabber chat room? So all members could join using jabber to one chatroom?

[Sebijk]

Hello,

The current Jabber Class is from Florian Schmitz and have not any functions for Jabber MUC. If your search for a Jabber Web MUC, see at http://zeank.in-berlin.de/muckl/. MUckl is web-based application for Jabber groupchats which aims to be very easy to use (supply a nick and hit the button…).

[Alfa1]

Very interesting.
Would be cool to have Jabber group chat integration (Either member login integration or forum account <-> jabber account integration)

[Mum]

I've been working on jabber integration and will let you know how i did it if you pm me This includes group chat

[Sebijk]

Cool! Please send me more Information via pm.
