Profile Enhancements - Meebo Chatin profile

First thanks to zoints for having meebo as one of there blocks and thanks to stangger5 for making the profile blocks for the mp3 player and for youtube. I did use his as a guide but the rest is all me.

What does this mod do? it adds a free chating system to your profile right side block. It can be added any where as a block in the MEMBERINFO template of your skin. Its free to use and is an alternative to an ajax chatbox. This adds a small embed of the standalone meebo chating system and whats even better is you dont even have to be logged on. You can add some info in the xml file just encase you wont to make it so your users can select the height and width of there meebo chating system do do so open the xml file scroll near the end and make another $userinfo[fielda] and $userinfo[fielda]. Replace the numbers in height="" with $userinfo[fielda] and replace the numbers in the width="" with $userinfo[fieldb] and make two more text box user profile fields and add there numbers there. when your naming them make sure to name them meebo chat height and meebo chat width and tell them to write down the height and width of the embed aswell. and there you go that wraps up the meebo in your profile mod.

make sure to follow the read me txt file included in the zip any questions please leave them here and i`ll answer them as soon as i can.

Enjoy

Do you have to be logged in via meebo?

[ArnyVee]

TsirhCitna, I know that with the Yahoo Pingbox, you have to be logged into Yahoo for it to show you as 'online' and get the message and communicate back.

But, I'm not sure with the Meebo version here. Can someone confirm this?

You have to be logged into Meebo to be shown as Online and interact with the visitors. The visitors use the widget and get a guest ID, so they do not need an account.

sorry about that everyone heres the link to my profile so you an see how it works but it only keeps the info if your logged in but you can view the messages left if your not logged in.

DEMO hope you like it and once again thanks to stanger5 and zoints for the inspiration.

Yes that all true what makes this mod different is that you dont have to be signed into meebo for it to work and you can interact with other im systems with your meebo widget. the only issue if you can call it one is that you the profile owner must sign up for meebo which is a free widget and can sign in to be shown as online so you can interact with other guests. I saw this on zionts and thought it would be a great add on for the regular vbulletin and I used stangger5 xml file as a template to make my own but i did leave in the bit to added user id numbers so the admin can choose who can use that profile filed. I didnt added the other userinfo fields because you can tell them a size o you can let them pick and that's why i added it to the txt file. Its free to use which is a plus its server friendly unlike some chat boxes and unless you have low bandwidth then its over all a good solution to faster chating without a huge chat box on your front page or forumhome template. Thanks to all who liked or have used my mod.
