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.

Post #19: You might need to go back and be sure you didn't miss anyparts. It should work fine, I'll double check for you.

Post #20: You have to go to your replacment set's and add new replacments, one called {buddyon} and another called {buddyoff} -- Hope that helps

I looked over the script and I don't see any problems. Try this if you are having java errors, otherwise it's not the script.


Find:

PHP Code:


<form name="buddyjump">
<script>
function jumpMenu(){
location=document.buddyjump.buddymenu.options[document.buddyjump.buddymenu.selectedIndex].value;
}
</script>
<td valign="middle" align="right">
<smallfont>
<select name="buddymenu" size="1">
<option>Buddy Messenger</option>
<option>Online Buddies</option>
$onlinebuddy
<option>Offline Buddies</option>
$offlinebuddy
</select></smallfont></td>
<td width="22" valign="middle" align="left">
<a href="Javascript:jumpMenu()"><img src="{imagesfolder}/buddy_go.gif" border="0" alt="Message Buddy"></a>
</td></form>
</tr></table>
</td></tr> 


Replace With:

PHP Code:

<form name="jump">
<script>
function jumpMenu(){
location=document.jump.menu.options[document.jump.menu.selectedIndex].value;
}
</script>
<td valign="middle" align="right">
<smallfont>
<select name="menu" size="1">
<option>Buddy Messenger</option>
<option>Online Buddies</option>
$onlinebuddy
<option>Offline Buddies</option>
$offlinebuddy
</select></smallfont></td>
<td width="22" valign="middle" align="left">
<a href="Javascript:jumpMenu()"><img src="{imagesfolder}/buddy_go.gif" border="0" alt="Message Buddy"></a>
</td></form>
</tr></table>
</td></tr>

yah.. but where do i go, to find and add those new replacements? im totally lost here!

[BigJohnson]

Ya i get an error too. This is what happens. It works great when linking to the Pm thing for the buddy but when you highlight OFFLINE BUDDY and click the button you get the error saying there is an error. Is there any way to not get this to show up?

[snyx]

huh, buddies in a dropdown list in forumhome..
who would have thunk it..

none the less, I shall install it.

[kaost451]

ohh damn, I never seen that.. sorry.. well there you go you can use either one. If you are getting any errors (which I didn't) then It is probably the drop down script. I'll look into it

[BigJohnson]

Ya but I like this drop down alot better than that one.

[ZiRu$]

me too...but it dont link to the buddies

[kaost451]

Okay here is the solution, In step four add this instead.
This should fix the problem.

PHP Code:

<tr id="cat">
    <td bgcolor="{categorybackcolor}" colspan="6"><a href="private.php?s=$session[sessionhash]" title="Click Here to Open Your Private Messages $inboxname"><normalfont color="{categoryfontcolor}"><b>Private Messages</normalfont></b></a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}" align="center" valign="top"><img src="{imagesfolder}/$lightbulb.gif" alt=""></td>
    <td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}" colspan="5">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<tr><td width="100%" valign="middle"><smallfont>
    <b>$bbuserinfo[username]</b> - You have $newpm[messages] new message(s) since your last visit.<br>
    (You have $unreadpm[messages] unread messages and $allpm[messages] total messages in all your folders.)</smallfont></td>
<form name="buddyjump">
<td valign="middle" align="right"><smallfont>
<select name="buddymenu" onChange="location=document.buddyjump.buddymenu.options[document.buddyjump.buddymenu.selectedIndex].value;" value="GO">
<option selected>Buddy Messenger</option>
$onlinebuddy
$offlinebuddy
</select>
</smallfont></td></form>
</tr></table>
</td></tr> 


Now if you would like to add more options to
your buddy messenger, you may add three new
options, profile, send pm and remove buddy.

ex:
username(1)
- Send PM
- Remove
username(2)
- Send PM
- Remove

Just open buddy_messenger and replace it with:

PHP Code:

<option $onoff value="member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$buddy[userid]">$buddy[username]</option>
<option value="private.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=newmessage&userid=$buddy[userid]">- Send PM</option> 
<option value="member2.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=removelist&userlist=buddy&userid=$buddy[userid]">- Remove</option>

Here I updates the hack. Just go ahead and reinstall it if you are having problems.
