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.

Great progress!

We will use it after we will have installed our own jabber server.

I'm using vB 3.8.1 and latest version found here.
I can't send visitor messages to myself, user ID 1. Other users can do this, i can send it to others and so on.
I'm not sure if it's admin reason or user ID 1 reason, But when sending visitor message to myself i get whitepage. After disabling this mod problem does not exist any more.
Any suggestions?

Hello,

I have no problems with this. Is AJAX enabled? What PHP Version are you use?

[Sebijk]

Now the Enhanced Jabber Integration is going to Release Candidate. But I haven't enough free time to support the product, but support is still valid, as far as my time permits.

Changes since Version 1.23 Beta 7:

Version 1.23 RC 1:

* Some Template Modifications (TMS) changed to Template Hooks.
(Thanks to DragonMasterNYC for using some Code parts)
* Updated xmpphp Class (SVN Rev 75)
* PM Notifications via Jabber is not any more depended with the Setting:
Send E-Mail Notifications about new Private Messages
(useful, if you don't like double Messages)
* Automatically Redirects, if a User sends a Jabber Message from a User Profile.

The Planned Function moved to the future Version 1.24 for time reasons.
