[6.0x] Private message center [addon to easy's ViewPmInfo hack]

UBB.Dev

ok guys,
i managed to make an addon for easy's ViewPmInfo hack called "Private message center" lol

its probably not the most decent hack,
but atleast it works!

what does it do?
it will show a pm center on the main page,
like the msn center hack.

** UPDATE: Now compatible with version 1.2
- sound added

for a demo go here:
Demo (demo url is updated to the new test board)

download it from here:
pm_center.zip

Demo page not responding 8(

just tried it and it the link works fine.

try to copy the link and paste it in your browser

Triad to register at your testboard but got this errormessage:

FYI
Can not overwrite an existing profile number. Please notify the administration that their last_number.cgi file may be corrupt. Permissions on the Members directory must be reset, and the Member Stat files must be rebuilt afterwards. (00000017)

kakagaul, prob is fixed

Nice work.

I will be sure to install it later.

Look's good

Yes, that looks good

Could it be a good idea to implement a link with direct access to your Buddy List, as an e@sy way to send PM?

I also can't get to the Demo Page. Tried it in the afternoon and again just now.
Can't get to the Board or your home page even with copying the link.

Must have something to do with location...I am not able to look at the demo page either...Oh well maybe it will come back later.

RC

Does it work with viewpminfo 1.2 (the one with audio and immage notificatio) ?

Hi I have ViewPmInfo 1.2
Strange thing is that I hacked the files but nothing shows up on the Forum Summary

Did you clear your cache?

hehe yes I did, I checked it a couple of times, the code seems to be in place , I have the Chat and msn mods also , maybe it is because of that?

Can somebody tell me how to fix this error i got from this.

Example

Content-type: text/html
Software error:
open | -t -oi: No such file or directory at /www/gamenexus2k/cgi-bin/ubb_lib_mail.cgi line 39
For help, please send mail to the webmaster ([email protected]), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.

Why cant I find :

Code

code:

in my UBB_forum_summary.cgi ?

my board is at http://gamingrealm.co.uk/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

Please help. Thanks

Maurice:

nope, that has nothing to do with it,
if you followed the instructions and cleared you cache than it should work fine

[ July 16, 2001 04:02 PM: Message edited by: Yunkie34 ]

If you're talking to me, I'm saying that I can't find that code in ubb_forum_summary.cgi . Why ?

Zonex:
that message wasn't for you, but about your prob. Do you have the ViewPMinfo hack installed before adding this addon?

Phase Strike:
Check your mail

When I came home It worked I think it was a cache problem , Great Mod!!!!

Man thats nice didn't even acknowledge my post.

?? Maybe you can't read?

i contacted you by email

What email did you use i didn't get anything?

i used this one: [email protected]

I installed this hack and it appears but it doesn't catch anything. It just says i have zero pm's. But on top of the forum it says i have 1. I go to look at them and nothing appears. You can take a look here to see what i mean http://gamenexus2k.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

Hrm.. I got the same error Phase-Strike got.. made a new account and sent messages back and forth fine...
Sending to an existing member produced that error.
Any help?

Hey, I have something to add:

I would like, in addition to the count of new messages, a count of total PM's for the user.

$pm_count is the right variable... can someone show me how to display it on the forum summary (in the private message center?)

Hi,

I have the same problem as Zonex! I also cann't find:

$howmuch='0';
if (-e "$vars_config{MembersPath}/pm_users/$user_number.pos") {
open (FILE, "<$vars_config{MembersPath}/pm_users/$user_number.pos");
&lock;
$in=;
$howmuch=$in;
&unlock;
close (FILE);
if ($howmuch eq "yes") {$howmuch = "a"};
$search="";
$replace='

You have '.$howmuch.' new PM in your message inbox';
if ($howmuch ne "0") {
$ThisHTML =~ s/$search/$replace/gim;
}
else{
$ThisHTML =~ s/$search//gim;
}
}

on ubb_forum_summary.cgi!

I have never install the hack before.

I'm running ubb6.04d and have install this hacks:

Who's online hack 4.0.0

This is the addon to e@sy's ViewPMInfo hack , you have to have it.

Thanks you LK!

I want the hack to be above all my other forums. Where do i need to place the code to do that?

I would like, in addition to the count of new messages, a count of total PM's for the user, in the PM center on the forums summary page.

PLEASE HELP!

I love this hack, though I made a few changes to the placement it's a great add-on.
