 Topic: MSN, Yahoo, AIM Buttons In WWF V 7.0
Posted: 23 April 2003 at 2:42pm |
I haven't had a chance to download the Final Release of version 7.0 but I have a question for anyone who is now using the final release. I noticed in the V7.0RC1 that when you would put a MSN buddy name in your profile that it would not show a MSN Button when you post like AOL and Yahoo. Was that bug fixed in the Final Release Version?
Also I notice that none of the buttons appear on the board here. Is there something that the Administrator has to set in the Admin Menu to enable / disable that feature?

I have v7.0 now installed, but now, none of the buttons for Yahoo, AOL, or MSN will show up. In v7.0RC1 at least Yahoo and AIM would show up.
Is anyone else having the same problem or have you just not noticed it yet! Someone help please!!!

It appears the icons only show in the profile display if a user has entered the details.
Do you mean they aren't displaying under the post with the rest of the user icons?

Yeah they don't display under the post where the other icons are. I don't know if it is designed to do that though. If not that would be a nice mod.
But in the profile MSN will not show up. I notice some of the code is missing in the pop_up_profile. asp file. Look next to where the Yahoo and AIM are. The MSN line does not reference the msn.gif file like the others reference their respective files.
I am going to continue working on this problem, or maybe someone else will beat me to it! Either way hope someone comes up with a fix for the profile and also a mod to show it under the post would be AWESOME!

It is not--they are located on the persons profile. The reason is because with the standard buttons there just isn't enough room to display them all under each post.

The MSN one in the profile is shown as text and not a button like yahoo, aol, etc. this is because with AOL, yahoo, etc. they link to things, with MSN there is nothing available to link to, so a button would be no good as you wouldn't be able to see the MSN users name to be able to add it to your MSN messenger.

I see what your saying, but just wondering why was the msn.gif button that exist in the forum_images folder created then? Was that something that was just thrown in there before creating the profile layout or was something else originally in mind?
I think maybe there is still someway it can be used though. Still working on ideas. If anyone else figures something out I would greatly appreciate it!
An idea is another line under the one that currently exist under post. Allow the different messenger buttons to appear if a user has given usernames.
Look something like this: Maybe?
