There's a lot of really great hacks out there, but sometimes certain hacks aren't appropriate for certain situations. Most of the time you're left with commenting out the code (which is ugly) or undoing all of your hard work. Not fun at all.
I just came up with a way to set anything from the general settings (or whatever settings you want.) Talk about a real time-saver! I just completed this hack for my company's forum, so I know it works, but I haven't gone ahead and documented it yet.
Before I do, if someone out there already has this documented, PLEASE spare me the hard work and let me know. Otherwise, I should have this up by the end of the week.

Ok, so I got it done a little earlier than expected. Without further adeu:

Just about everything in the book. Really the only issue (which has nothing to do with this hack at all) is the fact that UBB has spread its profile numbers all over the place and it's sort of hard to keep track of them. I'm glad you guys like it, that means a lot to me.

Yeah reallly good hack...love it!

Matrix,

ICQ me today and I'll walk you through it.

PLEASE NOTE: Usually I stay late at work to get stuff done, but tonight is Friday and it's a pay day . . . in other words, I'll be taking off here possibly a little earlier than expected. However, if any of you would like to buy me a laptop so that I can keep in touch with you from the bar, please feel free to do so.

Hi,

I'm just going over some of these hacks that are listed in these forums and I wanted to ask a few questions...Digital Boy does the hack you have listed work on the free version? From everything I have seen it looks like I want the registered version, but thats a lotta money for an Everquest Guild and the occasional LAN party hehe. Basically I want to change the colors to match my web page and allow moderators to delete messages. The ICQ user add and stuff like that would be nice, but thats a lotta fluff right now Can I accomplish any of that with your script? Thanks for your time.
