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.

well, I am glad to see where the problem is, now. Anyway how can I fix it.

In my config.php stands:

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

C.Birch · #**244** 08-20-2004, 11:18 AM

yeah all your other cookie info reads with bb in front of it whats right apart from sessionhash what is giving you the prob because it can not read the cookie to see if your logged in because its not bbsessionhash whats odd with all the other cookie bits having the bb in front of them.

going download the zip and look see if i can see a edit because i had to format lastnight so dont have files to hand.

C.Birch · #**245** 08-20-2004, 11:35 AM

not anything in the files that could help and the main cookie is done by vb so it looks like theres a error there im not sure anyway got to fly got loads to do myself.

Kru · #**246** 08-20-2004, 12:15 PM

Anyway thank you very much for your try to help me. Maybe with the time I will find a way to fix it.

Hi there,

I noticed a little problem with BB Messenger when having multiple windows opened and wondered if this was a limitation with using a combination of Java/PHP or whether there was a way of turning this off, ok here's the scenario.

When conversing with two people in seperate BB Messenger windows, say you are typing a message to user 1, user 2 sends you a message. Now the window focus is hijacked to user 2 window. If you weren't looking at the monitor, you in-invertently type part of the message to the wrong person. Any way of stopping that window hijacking the focus by commenting out some code or is this just a feature of java?

Thanks for your help.

dstruct2k · #**248** 08-20-2004, 06:21 PM

Javascript is pushing that window to the topmost location on your screen, this should be editable somewhere in the clientscript.

Panic · #**249** 08-21-2004, 02:04 PM

ok, I edited the file /bbmessenger/style/messenger.html.php
and commented out the line :-

window["chat_{$VAR["sitecode"]}_" + id].focus();

This seems to stop the focus.

I've tried everything on the last few pages but i'm still not able to use bbmessenger. Could anyone see if its just a problem on my side?

I have a modification to purpose who will fix all bugs with cookie setting

Open ./bbmessenger/sources/boardmodule/vb3.inc.php

Find:

PHP Code:


			
function boardmodule_import_db_settings()
{
    require_once ("../includes/config.php");
    global $VAR;

Replace by:

PHP Code:


			
function boardmodule_import_db_settings()
{
    require_once ("../includes/config.php");
    define("COOKIE_PREFIX", $cookieprefix);
    global $VAR;

Find:

PHP Code:


			
    if (!isset($_COOKIE["bbuserid"]) OR !ereg("^[0-9]*$", $_COOKIE["bbuserid"]))
    {
        return PERM_LOGGED_OUT;
    }
    if (!isset($_COOKIE["bbpassword"]) OR !ereg("^[0-9A-Fa-f]*$", $_COOKIE["bbpassword"]))
    {
        return PERM_LOGGED_OUT;
    }
 
    $user = db_query("SELECT userid, username, usergroupid, membergroupids, password, salt, pmunread as unreadpms FROM {prefix}user WHERE userid=" . $_COOKIE["bbuserid"] . " LIMIT 1");

Replace by:

PHP Code:


			
    if (!isset($_COOKIE[COOKIE_PREFIX . "userid"]) OR !ereg("^[0-9]*$", $_COOKIE[COOKIE_PREFIX . "userid"]))
    {
        return PERM_LOGGED_OUT;
    }
    if (!isset($_COOKIE[COOKIE_PREFIX . "password"]) OR !ereg("^[0-9A-Fa-f]*$", $_COOKIE[COOKIE_PREFIX . "password"]))
    {
        return PERM_LOGGED_OUT;
    }
 
    $user = db_query("SELECT userid, username, usergroupid, membergroupids, password, salt, pmunread as unreadpms FROM {prefix}user WHERE userid=" . $_COOKIE[COOKIE_PREFIX . "userid"] . " LIMIT 1");

Find:

PHP Code:


			
if (md5( $user["password"] . $VAR["vbulletinlicenceid"]) == $_COOKIE["bbpassword"])

Replace by:

PHP Code:


			
if (md5( $user["password"] . $VAR["vbulletinlicenceid"]) == $_COOKIE[COOKIE_PREFIX . "password"])

And normally, all your problems with cookies and login will be resolved

And this hack is great
