Improved PM Folderview · **Released**: 03-30-2002

TESTED ON 2.3.0 AND FOUND WORKING

What does it do?

You know it happens to me pretty often that my users wonder why they cannot receive any more pm's. the standard question "did you check your sent items folder?" is answered with the standard question "do i have a sent items folder?"...

to avoid that, this hack shows the user on the privatemessage mainpage which folders they have in a list with the ability to add a folder without having to switch to the folders template.

aditionally, i modified the pmgauge enhanced hack by WWW.TOTAL-IMPACT.COM aka princeton a little and included it.

so, its nothing special, but maybe some people like it.
note: im new to this, so the code might be very ugly...

instructions:

1) follow instructions.txt

Credits: The_Sisko, mystics and boofo for finding bugs and helping with the code

Please notice this add-on by matt that allows you to have the amount of messages in each folder displayed next to it. Working on 2.2.9 too.

NOTICE: If you installed the private messages backup hack by Cano2 which is found here, you will have to to change a bit in the instructions.txt:

where it says to find:

PHP Code:


			
  //get correct folder name

  if ($folderid=="0") {

you will need to find the SECOND instance as the private message backup hack adds another instance of this code to the file.

NOTICE2: if you installed the PM Quota by Usergroup Hack by g-force2k2 that can be found here then the solution to make both work together is here

please click install if you use it, thank you

How do you change the quota to work with the PM Quota by Usergroup Hack?

i wont bet my money on this, but i guess it should work replacing all instances of $pmquota in the gauge hack by $touserinfo[pmlimit]
at least i hope so

I am having issues with this hack and Internet Explorer. When I add a folder (using both the input box and the folder button) it puts it on top of the "Folder" table. The HTML code is all ok when I view the source, but something is wrong. I have confirmed that it is not just my machine, and its (so far) only related to IE (as it displays fine with Opera).

All the other $variables on the page are fine with the exception of $folderboxeshack, no matter where I put it it screws up.

Screenshot is attached...

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
