Modification Name: ICQ/MSN/AIM/Yahoo! Status Indicators

Author(s): Ian Spence

Description: Adds the Yahoo and MSN IM clients to those available on the UBB.classic program. It also adds images to the user's posts allowing a another member to contact that person via IM client easily.

Requirements: UBB.classic 6.6 - 6.7

Download Link: 6.6 Version
6.7 Version

Credits: Dave2 for the old version

Notes: This is tested thoroughly with 6.7, and I could not find any bugs. If you find one, reply here and I'll help.

It looks like the mouseover ALT text on the AIM icon doesn't show the screen name of the user.

I'm sorry, fixed in the zip.

see, unwanted features i tell ya! lol...

nice work Al, I didn't see this one Reminds me of the one we used to have for the classic 5 series

[EDIT: Please ignore me, I'm having a bad day counting ]

haha *wonders what you originally said*

I originally said that one of the profile fields collided with the Quick Reply profile field, until I saw that QR was 61 and these two were 60/62. I must have taken a quick glance at "$maxmemfields = 62;" in the Quick Reply readme and based my suspicion on that...

I'm an idiot, remember.

haha, relax. The original hack did, until I had quick reply installed, so I had to go change the numbers. I hack the hell outta my boards, so none of my hacks will interfere with any of the major hacks

There is a spot that says:

in vars_registration.cgi


find:

q!vars_registration-_-aim_field_use! => q!AIM!,

add after:

q!vars_registration-_-msn_field_use! => q!MSN!,
q!vars_registration-_-yim_field_use! => q!Yahoo!,

Well, I don't have the first one in my code for some reason... any ideas? Should I add it?

typo in the install, that line should be in vars_wordlets_cp2.cgi, updated the zip

Does anyone know if this works on 6.7.1? Much thanks in advance.

It should as I believe Al's using it at his site.

thou believes wrong

Any chance of a port?

Ask again in a week
