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.

If you like Jabber, join to the Jabber social group at vBulletin.com (Link not working was removed from vBulletin.com?)

PHP Version:

Minimal is PHP 4.3.3 required, but PHP 5.2.6 is recommended.

Is a vBulletin 4 version planned?

Yes, see here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=262896

When you click a xmpp-Uri-Link, it opens your Jabber client. Example "Sending Message to xdy@xyz.tld" at "More Jabber Functions via Jabber Client" opens Your Send Message Window of your Client.

The other thing at top sends a Jabber Message without a Client. You need to configure a Jabber Account at vBulletin Settings.

Thank you.

I configured JA at vB 3.8.4 settings, but there is no jabber button near skype button at the forum messages of users, who included the jabber address data in there profiles. Also when I click the "Sent Jabber message" at the popup menu in profile, there is no the message body field in popup message window.

How can I solve this trouble?

Ok, the Mod works, but there is a problem.

It seems only I (Administrator) get notified of PM's or get messages send to me via Jabber in my Profile. When I or someone else tries to send a Message using Jabber in someone's Forum Account, nothing ever gets there.

And since there is no further permission setting for Registered Users, I wonder why that only works for / with me.

PLEASE HELP !! I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT IS GOING WRONG HERE !

Even adding someone else as Admin doesn't change the fact that he can't receive Messages with the Jabber (Web) Message within his Profile. So why is that ? I thought maybe there would be a thing that it is only working for Admins, but that wouldn't make sense. So why am I the only one that can receive Messages with that thing ?

will this mod be ported to vbulletin4?

Sorry for the longtime away from me.

I haven't vbulletin 4 (and I wouldn't pay for this), but a other vB User have a access to Version 4 (and i'm mainintenance the forum from him). I would port it to vBulletin 4, if I have time for this.

I have checked the postbit, postbit_legacy and im_jabber templates, but they appear normal and I see no indication as to why the IM icon is duplicating. I have not experienced any problems until just now. Is anyone else experiencing this?

I had this too after upgrade from 1.23 RC2. After import new version of product there were 2 icons, so I deleted template edits from older version which are not needed anymore and both icons dissapeared. I looked in plugin which is taking care about inserting (well, by replacing in this case) code to postbit and postbit_legacy and found typo. Fix is easy:

Open plugin "Parse Templates for Jabber" and change 2x this (first is for postbit and second is for postbit_legacy):

(' $post[icqicon]', '$post[jabbericon] $post[icqicon]', $vbulletin->templatecache['postbit_legacy']);

...to this (remove first space before $post[icqicon]):

('$post[icqicon]', '$post[jabbericon] $post[icqicon]', $vbulletin->templatecache['postbit_legacy']);

Icon will appear


And one more thing. When I was in usercp (page "Edit Your Details"), there was unchached template "im_jabber_field_modifyprofile". Fix is easy too:

Open plugin "Jabber Integration Template Cache" and change this:

$globaltemplates  = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('im_jabber','im_send_jabber', 'im_send_jabber_complete','im_send_jabber_complete_2','memberinfo_block_jabber'));

...to this:

$globaltemplates  = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('im_jabber','im_send_jabber', 'im_send_jabber_complete','im_send_jabber_complete_2','memberinfo_block_jabber','im_jabber_field_modifyprofile'));

Good luck :up:

[Sebijk]

I think not, but a version for vbulletin 4 is planned.
