Hi Allen,
I have installed this hack again but i had to change some things to let work the images en the popup in the first line of the hack.
Things what i need to change was:
All $cgiurl's to $CGIURL
All UBonline.cgi's to ubonline.cgi
I make them all case sensitive to let work the images and the popup.
Now i get a blank popup with offline.gif if i try to send a IM to someone.
Here is an example to the problem.
http://spawnboard.hypermart.net/ubb/Forum10/HTML/000024.html The IM image/link is in the author column btw.
And users get only offline.gif no matter they are online or not.
Thanks.
------------------
I got also UBB hacks database
Won't let me send IM's to people with spaces in there name. It just says the user is not registered.
Same with $cgiurl not the ubonline bit.
Also with UBBonline.cgi
change to
sorted a problem with online.gif being in the cgi directory???

I get a message with the subject "1" and the author "Yes" if I send a message

ah, i know what you mean
well tell you that is another hack that
i have not install, that one call pmpopup
when you get a message, i only install pmpopup for the Ultimate.cgi not for the forumdisplay.cgi there is one for forumdisplay.cgi but i have not install then yet.
so it not an error, so it not relate to ubonline

Ah! My first *big* self-created mod!
Marti.. the screenshot problem is a result of a problem in 3.5 PMs, rather than the IMs, per se.
I'm confused at the millions of errors, is there a specific problem I can try and help with? I've got a huge list of "must be fixed"s for IMs.
They were only released in sub-alpha, with next to no testing.
------------------
If you can read this, you're posting too close!
The problems with the message from "Yes" happen when someone types a message in the pop-up and hits "enter" to go to a new line... the carriage return in the message gets converted to another message from user "Yes" and title "1" with whatever was typed on the new line placed into the url of the new message... you will get another message for each time you do this...
send yourself one here with a couple of carriage returns and see what happens...

type a message in an IM to yourself and hit "enter" to go to a new line in that message, then type more... you'll see what I mean.
try it again without hitting "enter", no more problem.

The difference is the first fix only worked if you have HTML enabled. Otherwise it adds

tags...which isn't good.

HTML Allowed? to no, but it still work fine
i don't know that what you mean by "HTML enabled".
------------------

Angel is looking for me, help
you may not have html allowed on your ubb, but the private messages come with it enabled as default. Go to send a private message, then look on the left part of the table. It will say "HTML is on". To turn it off, change private.cfg where it has the html allowed variable.

ok, i installed the hack to my 5.46 UBB and everything works except when i try to send an IM, the popup window shows up and i type my message in..when i click send, it comes up with an ISE message and the IM never sends..any suggestions on what i should do?
also, when i go to check my IM's it doesn't have the IM's seperated from the PM's..the online and offline functions work perfectly but i'm guessing the ISE is what's messing it up..
here's a link to one of the posts..
http://www.apocrec.com/cgi-bin/ubbcount.cgi?expath1=Forum1&expath2=&topic=000032&type=&number=1
You don't have the latest version of private messaging then...you need pm's 3.5 or .7 or whatever allen calls the latest pm 3.5 files.
------------------
i updated to the 3.5 version of CYMPM and everything works fine but when i go to check the new IM messages (it shows i have new messages on Ultimate.cgi) none of the new messages show up..
I have installed this - blank screen on forumdisplay
I have gone over it - removed it - redid it - gone over it - removed it - redid it - did changes posted here - still blank screen on forumdisplay
so I figure I have some stupid error somewhere
If there was a definitive set of updated instructions with all latest fixes available I will try again
Thanks!
I get the same errors...
And I've done the same thing... new forumdisplay...and redid the hack... same errors....
Someone please help!
I get the following errors:
syntax error at C:InetpubMommiesforumforumdisplay.cgi line 783, near ") {"
syntax error at C:InetpubMommiesforumforumdisplay.cgi line 789, near "print"
And I'm horrible at CGI...so I don't know how to fix it myself...
Thanks!
I got everything to run on my first try. Use the installation document included somewhere in this thread (page 4?) The one included in the zip is horrible...
I also used these icons for my IM's...
------------------
The Fusion of Goku & Trunks...GoTorankusuKu
Cool GIFs, but if you have the karma hack installed it will get kinda confusing

u know wat i would love?
if some one could put im where they say online/offline cause dats easier n users would just know by looking @ it to click it u know?

yeah, can I get credit for that fix I worked a good hour-2 trying to figure it out and when this place was down, I posted it at ubbhackers.com right
here .
Yeah it was yours, I just forgot what was your name. That's why I said I "found" this fix, not made it. All credit goes to BD.
------------------
The Fusion of Goku & Trunks...GoTorankusuKu
i know ya did i just wanted to throw it in sorry if i sounded mad i wasn't. I got some great ideas for this hack, but I lack the skills to do it. Although I will be trying these maybe someone can get together with me on this and combine the efforts, anyways the following is what I am thinking about:
1: adding the popup into other area in ubb_library2.pl, online.cgi, memberlist.cgi.
2: Having it able to click next to a users name on the online.cgi list and click an IM icon or text and send an IM(having real trouble with the popup working on this one.)
3: Writing cgi coding to have it recheck the IM count every minute or so, as the refreshing of the popup doesn't do the job.
#1 seems done I'll prolly have it tommorow, #2 prolly a few days unless I can get some help, #3 prolly never I'm not that talented. You can reach me in MSN messanger under
[email protected] or email me at the same addy if you would like to colaberate on this.
Thanks all.. updated the pm files with your fix. Thank you Black Death. If you got your im I sent a while ago, then the fix works...

Ok this is easy stuff here but I figured I'd post it cause its a good idea. I figured whats the point of IM's if you can't see whos online from the online page and click to send an IM so here a small easy hack to send IM's.
now theres a link on the online.cgi page to send an im. More to come ASAP.
ok i modified two icons for the online and offline...
Nice icons BD, but those do look like the IP icons.

Actually I got them from Microsoft.
yeah...I agree that they look too much like the IP ones. Good idea adding the IM thing to the who's online. I'll incorperate that into my revision...whoops I've said too much already

Mine too, It is in the code, just have to look for it... I'll check it out more this evening if you don't have time to find it.

That "1" or "yes" error are two other names for the "return" error. Replace ur privatesend.cgi with the new one, available for download here.

Yep... you got several problems working over there....
I registered to check some out. In your "welcome new registered member pm", I believe it is done in ubbmisc.cgi, make sure your whole message is on one line in that file, otherwise, a line break will send 2 messages, like it is now, both of them messed up.
There's apparently some install errors in ubb im's as well, because it does load the whole site again when you click on it. Here it just brings you to the top of the page... And you don't receive the im after it says it was successfully sent. Which is all just a repeat of what you just typed... you might want to try installing the latest files, paying extra attention to the ubb_library2.pl section...
------------------
Allen
-
http://www.stand318.com
was definitly shocking to see "new post left by allen" on my boards
ok, i fixed up the welcome PM you mentioned (had it linked directly to my control panel's general settings)
as for installing the latest files... dooooh... i did! i did! and i hated it every time. takes soooo long....
plus, the IM code for ubb_...2 is really short. just the line with the link, specifically href="#" (which, i believe, is whats messin THAT part up, the reload part)
lotsa frustration. thanks for checkin it, tho.

What takes so long for you to install the new files? I understand you want to avoid the code buttons, but I believe they are optional now.... (I could definitely be wrong on that tho).
Do you use "Beyond Compare" on your files to see what has been changed? You might want to comment out the parts you want out then just compare files to see what has been changed each time... makes it very easy. You can copy differences over from one file to another in a matter of seconds....
Anyways, you might want to experiment with that # in ubb_library2.pl... it seems to be what's causing the reload. See if you can point it to an anchor in your footer or something... or in your navigation on the left, etc...
------------------

http://www.stand318.com
the thing that takes me so long is just the editting, then re-editting of the cgi scripts. i dont have a program with an UNDO or anything, so, each time, i just go in by hand.
other than that, i messed around with the ubb_library2.pl code a lil more.
changed my parts from the "#" ordeal to this (which i modeled after the email / profile button links):
this keeps my main page where it was, instead of reloading it. it does, however, create a full-sized window for IMs, as opposed to the tiny pop up (i guess cuz of that code, it ignores the height and width specifications). and this, i imagine, would grow quite annoying.
plus, it does nothing to fix the "missing IM" in my inbox section. the light flashes, indicating i have one, but, when i checked, all i get is tumbleweed.

The im's do get sent, cuz the pop-up shows when you go into forumdisplay...
I would check privateview and see why the tables for the im's aren't showing...
------------------
Allen
-
http://www.stand318.com
It only checks for IMs when you click post a new topic, post reply, edit post, or click on a forum. Thats the only times it checks for IMs. As for it reloading the main page...no clue why that would happen.
------------------
allen: im in my privateview.cgi now... any specific thing i should be looking for?
i remember adding the words "privateview.cgi" into other scripts during the UBONLINE hack install, but, i dont think the hack dealt directly with that file, itself...
i agree that this is where the problem is, tho.
dt: thats when i get the IM popups, so, if thats when its supposed t'happen, im assuming that part of my thing is workin ok, then.
the reload thing was drivin me nuts, tho. i dunno why that happens, either. the lil adjustment i added in (above) fixed the problem, altho, the lil popup was (and would be) more convenient then the full sized window that bounces up now.
again, i thank y'all fer yer help. this is why i love these boards

I think I am going blind now
. I have gone through eachline of code in all files of PM 3.7 (12/16) and IM 2.0 and I still can't find the fix.
The PM is working. I can send the IM through popup and it does show up in PM-Inbox but I don't get a IM popup message.
I installed the memberlist hack and changed the variable but still no go. Have checked all the variables and Chmod.
Any thoughts........
Go through your installation again (ubb script modifying). If the majority of the people got it working then it should work for everyone else.
------------------
The Fusion of Goku & Trunks...GoTorankusuKu
Thanks GoTorankusuKu. The hack working on majority of boards doesn't neccassirily mean if I install it as documented it will work.
Even though we are all on UBB but with all different hacks and with different hacks versions and with different UBB versions.
I am on 5.45 and I suspect the either the Voice Chat hack, UBB code buttons hack or PM notify hack may be related to me not getting the popups as I have gone through the hack code 5 times and it is all in order. I sort of now have all the hack memorized
.
I don't know enough about perl to know what to change to get it all working and I think all these other popups may be an issue.
There's got to be someone who knows the pieces of the hack that deal with the popup piece in particular.
I will probably give it one more try tonight and if not I plan to give up on it for now
.
try taking of PM notification...
------------------
grr...
problem appears to not be in the privateview code. i uploaded a "clean" version of the newest code, and, still couldnt see anything in the inbox section of my boards.

nightsong... do you have the "who's online" mod installed? It is required... other than that, it would have to be the install instruction code you are supposed to add in the different places, not the new cgi files you add....
Rob, I was about to suggest some code to look at regarding privateview, but if you uploaded a fresh one and still do not see them, it may be more than that. Did you also upload a fresh private.pl and private.cfg? Those files control some of the functionality of im's...

But this look nice

Happy Holidays Everyone!!!
Thanks DT, took the notification off still no go
Allen I do have Who's online 2.1b installed. There was an enhancement to it once (which later became IM) which mentined a drones.cgi. I didn't have that file so I never installed the 1.0 and went straight to IM2.0.
The reason I feel pretty sure about the editing done right is I can pretty much now take sections of the hack and seach the whole piece in cutehtml (in UBB file) and it finds it all (word to word) at the right place.
Since the first time I installed it I had goofed only once and that was I mixed up the viewUBBIM&antiAOL=$random" with the other similar line. But you never know its not that I don't do it twice
I will check the Who's online code again to see if I am missing anything there as I have noticed the Who's online doesn't work perfect. I mean sometimes (hmm... many times)even after I post it still shows me as a Guest. But if I login (using the login hack) I am always listed.
If I can't find anything there I will give it a rest for now before I go completely insane.............
LadyFire if I find something I will let you know.
Thanks everyone for all the input and suggestions and Happy Holidays.
yeah, UBB IM does not support UBBs with PM notification hacks..
oy! for the love of...
heya allen. i tried uploading the clean versions of those files with no luck. then, i uploaded clean versions of ALL pm-related files, with even less luck (didnt even get the "you have a new pm" message).

Then, ADD:

Hello Franky, you are the Santa!, The answer was there from DT, SPAWN, Allen and others but I wasn't seeing it untill you posted. My mistake!!!!!!!
Yes you have to take the PM notification off for it to work but the first change in PM notification is:
require "private.cfg";
and when I was taking the PM notification hack off I was also taking this line off and that had to be there for IM to work.
Thanks everyone for all the help!
I will mail this thread to Ladyfire, she may have the same issue.
Still working on it I might have hit a dead end...I'm gonna give it one more try christmas day and if not then I'll figure out something.
Why don't you just make the window self closing, i'm already working on enough but the javascript for this I beleive is
this will have the window close itself when another link is loaded, then you can change the message from
UBBIM SENT SUCCESSFULLY PLEASE CLOSE THIS WINDOW
to
UBBIM SEND SUCCESSFULLY THIS WINDOW WILL CLOSE AUTOMATICALLY...
If I have some time I'll do a quick write up on it later on tonight but I doubt it...

This hack has been a never ending experiance
.
Thanks to all your suggestions I got the IM to pop up but now I have another problem that was working yesterday.
In posts it shows the Offline gif always. On the post and on the popup. Eventhough the user is listed Online in Who's online. This was working till yesterday and the main thing I have done is taken the PM notification off.
The IM's are getting through and working fine its just that everyone is shown Offline all the time in the posts but in Who's online they are listed.
My undrstanding was it was taking the info from online.cgi like who's line and same users should be shown online at both places but obviously not!!!!

It was litle bit complicated than i thought but i got it
working EDIT: I have to tell what it does aint i
This will close the popups after sending, deleting and posting without premission poups after 3 seconds (you can change this ofcourse)
Here is the whole code you have to change it in privatesend and in private delete.
In privatesend.cgi
Find:
And replace with:
Again in privatsend find:
And replace with:
In privatedelete.cgi find:
And replace with:
By defult goes the window in 3 secons away but if you want to change that just change this to time you want
closeTime+=3And if you want to add script without coppying completly here but in peaces dont forget to add
onLoad="startTime();" in the body tags.

I apologize if you have already answered this, but when do you see this "IM" hack ready for the "Finished Mods" forum, anytime soon? I noticed you've released it to the database, but I've also seen many sad icons and coding through out this topic which leads me to believe it may not have life yet beyond this forum. Thanks
I believe it is just about ready for the finished forum... tho there may be a couple more bugs to work out...
Most of the people having problems installing this are missing some fairly simple things... it usually isn't a problem with the script itself...

Been through all over the code but can't single out the problem.
The IM's are working fine and the PM's are working fine. But in threads users are always shown offline. In who's online page they are shown online. You can send IM and it pops up for the users who are online but in threads always offline.gif is shown.
Any thoughts??
Same here ... always shows offline
but seems to work fine.

it doesn't give me the error...
the other error is when i recive the instant mensage.. i recive it only in the private mensage, it don't open an windows with the mensage... can someone help me?
I am using the ubb 5.46 ....
to fix the second error, you might need to include
require "private.cfg";
in forumdisplay.cgi and postings.cgi - that worked on a site I installed these on Friday...

i've added it to ultimate.cgi simply add the routine from forumdisplay.cgi
(i had to use an image instead of the body tag cos it was conflicting with my page preloads, so i just made an image 1x1 so its basically invis)
then add
to the ForumsBottomHTML sub routine
As for indevidual threads i recon if u could embed an in each thread and make the server parse them. You could probs write a custom script to check for ims, and show the popup.
thats a first go at the imcheck.cgi taken straight from Ultimate.cgi and the im javascript. Probs needs a bit of work...

if i put only that part of code it works:
## FIND: (may be different if your layout is different (may lack the s))
posted $ThisDate $FormatTime
## PASTE THIS UNDER:

the rest of the instruction is for what? only pop up when incoming IM?

Ok popup works in the threads to if you have SSI with ST8's imcheck.
in ubb_library2.pl I put this after last link in reglink in my case is that search option
And it worked like charm.
But i thought i put it in the footer or header at CP, it was no succes you have to put in the cgi files you want to popup IM messages be carrefull dont put it in wrong place.
------------------

your server must be set up to parse standard html files, usually u need the extension .shtml to parse includes. I'll ave to ave a play with htaccess see if i can get it workin

And for shtml was a hack written by Digital Boy, i couldnt find it in the DB here but i got him

I didn't place it in the threads since I've already got it in forumdisplay. Now it should popup with audio notification while viewing the main page (ultimate) and thread listings (forumdisplay)..this should suffice!
Thanks for all the help!
You can check out my "rather bare board" here:
http://www.webdrenalin.com/ubbcgi ------------------
What kinda **** do I enter here?
Carnage, in your Ultimate.cgi, the last column for the favorites doesn't have an alternate color might want to change that
------------------
I placed everywhere even in the search.cgi
And it works perfectly.
But if you dont want 2 popups in a reply or quote, place the SSI call only in edit and new post subs at posting.cgi
Cuz if you use the call in ubb_library2.pl and try to reply, the popup will show up through the iframe
------------------
Happy Holidays Everyone!!!
were in Ultimate.cgi do i add all this
------------------
The popup for threads is working for me, but after I delete the IM that had popped up and go back to the thread page a blank IM will pop up. I assume because the im.gif image is still there automatically popping up an IM window from when I actually did have a new IM. Any way to fix this?
ok got it to work the poll was messing with every this nice add-on
------------------
how about adding
to online.cgi and set the reload low you can have a real time chat like that just a thought
ok it works i add
$Header
$PageTopHTML

What kinda **** do I enter here?
I am kind of lost since this is such a long thread but I think I read somewhere that the IM's get deleted automatically.
Well I have a IM in ubbdev.com since last week which I have read twice and closed and its still there.
Is the autodelete feature an option somewhere or is this a new future that was being discussed?
The IM's don't autodelete until you press the delete button in privateview.cgi (assuming)
------------------
hmmm.... Well all of a sudden today the offline/online status thing started working without me changing anything for days!
Have no idea what happened. I guess the only thing that auto changes is the online.cgi in the Members dir (or is private). anyways. Though I am glad its working now but since I don't know whats going on it may ..........
I think your assumption is right. It is only deleting them if I hit Delete. I think that "AUTO" in there is misleading and should be taken out.
Just installed this hack to my board about an hour ago and everything seems fine but i'm not getting any notification when i visit a forum. What code should i add/delete/change to get it to popup when i visit a forum. I had this hack on a different board and when adding it to the new board i used the latest doc and files. Now the notification isn't showing up. Any help will be appreciated.
If you have the PM popup notification then you will need to remove that to get it to work.

Ok for the # (page reloading) issue i have next solution
Find this:
and replace with:
It works ok with IE and NS6 but if someone will try it out for me with older version NS i would appreciate a lot...

you can't see the images? try to rename your images to:

they're called like this in the UBonline.cgi

1. It only checks when you refresh or go to another board, etc.
2. Some other people are having the problem of the image producing the "X". That's most likely allen's fault in the instructions

it to Swedish, and I don't want to do it again
)
I made all the changes and uploaded it again
(it worked in earlier versions) and I got a
500 error so I uploaded my old files again!
And the prob with the images is old and I
didn't have any problems solving that
But I'm looking for the popup notification!
Why thank you Spawn =) That did just the trick
You'r wellcome UG, i am happy if it worked for you.
*me wonders why it shouldnt work*------------------
Updated file in database with Spawn's fix for the reloading page and renamed the .gif files for DT.

are these thigns supposed to pop up like an actual instant message does on aol?
or do they just go to ur inbox?
if they are suposed to pop up mine arent working. do u have to be on a certain page for themt o pop up and work or what?
------------------
is there a new version coming out soon with all this popup install stuff included, cuase i really dont feel like going thru 11 pages on this thread to figure it all out heh
------------------
I tought you just metioned in
This thread to me that you personally didnt like the UBB IM mod? Why bother asking questions about it when you wont use it?
If you however want to use it i can tell you that the zip file in the database works great now and there is no need for going throw xxxx pages. Atleast it works great for me.

You might need to add these additions for the pop-ups to work properly.In
postings.cgi------------
FIND:require "ubb_library.pl";
require "ubb_library2.pl";
Then, ADD: require "private.cfg";
---------------
In
forumdisplay.cgi---------------
FIND:require "ubb_library.pl";
Then, ADD: require "private.cfg";
_____________________________________________
Second question 4
Spawn Is it possible to
recieve pop-ups with out reloading or going to another page?
That would be a great if someone could figure that out (
hint hint)
Agree
Hmmm, it only refreshs on Ultimate.cgi on my board further all other pages shows the popup without refreshing the page.
I think if you remove the Sound and change the code for popups in Ultimate.cgi it will work.
But i dont want to loose my sound option, thus let us find out how to do that.
But i have to sleep also today
------------------
I know what you mean......you're PM notification sound is pretty funny
You can actually recieve a pop-up in the
forumdisplay.cgi without having to refresh or enter the page
? Mine doesn't do that. I either have to enter the forumdisplay or refresh it. I wonder what I did wrong
. Oh well, ubbIM still rocks none the less
whats ur point bro? i dont liek it becuase it dont pop up, it aint a instant messagenger like it says it is.
so therefore i came over here and started reading about people actually getting pop ups. now im wondering why mine dont do that. i just downloaded the zip yesterday? or the day beforei cant remeber and isntalled it today and it dont pop up =
hopefullyican fgure it out
------------------
Did you install in forumdisplay with img src?
Like:
If so try the version without img src.
------------------
No I didn't Spawn, but just to make sure I'll go over my forumdisplay.cgi again
If I can't find it, no big deal, at least I got it working
P.S. I love the auto-closing IM window and the reply button mods, they're just too cool
This message has been edited by Ultra GrrL on January 03, 2001 at 05:22 AM
Thanks, I wish i was better in Perl than HTML
Those two lil mods are actually more HTML than Perl
------------------
well i recon if you could write a javascript loop that executes my imcheck.cgi every 10 secs or sommit, then it'd work, but i know very little js.
Anyone wanna have a go at makin a loop for me ?
Please, I really need this Popup notification, can someone please help me?
Where do I find the hack?
two things-
1. Statix- just because you can't get it working, doesn't mean it doesn't work. Tough luck, you screwed up. If a mod doesn't work right the first time I install it, I give it a second shot by restoring my backups.
2. The reply thing is built-in to the ubb IM's, read my post at the questions board.
3. WARNING! POPUP NOTIFICATION CAN REALLY MESS UP UBB IMS!
------------------
It started working now
Now I just need some sounds and make it work in the forums frontpage or everywhere on the site!
Hmmm, i thought Rickard was talking about that his users couldnt understand that reply function. Thats why i made that button.
But to make things clearrer:
I didnt make any reply function at all for IM popupsAll i did was using that reply function what DT talk about with FORM Submit fuction, and meanwhile when i was bussy i put the delete function in there.
------------------
First post on the board !
Just a quick question I hope you guys can help me with.
I have installed Instant messages , and have managed to get it to work ok ! Only problem comes with the new message in the pop-up. When I click on the user-name who sent the message , a new popup appears with a 404 message. Is there a fix for this ?? Or have I overlooked something simple ?
thx
got everything working nice
anyone knows where I can find some sounds?
Has anybody added a reply button to their IM pop-up notification window? Should be cool since you don't have to look for that sender in some thread in order to send an IM.
Hmmm, do you guys read these posts above?
Yes Polgas, if you have working popups, you have already a reply function in there, just click on offline/online image in there and you can reply, and i made some reply button for it, with same function, you can read that here
https://www.ubbdev.com/ubb/Forum2/HTML/002630.html But
again, there was always a reply function in IM popups....
------------------
hmmm thats 3 things not 2 things DT =
and i cant get this pop up thing to work....i installed pm notification pop up hack but still no dice =
------------------
Do absolutly not install the PM popup notification, otherwise your IM popups will not work.
------------------
I have the pm notification pop up installed and the pop up works in fourmsdisplay.
But Idont know why you would want it. Iam going to remove it, if I can find my note pad.
I forgot what I added I know it was a small hack. But that might be why when I click on the name in the pop up I get a error screen.
By the way this was a great improvement over the old hack. I had to update. Theres some script you dont have to change if you had the old version
OK I found the hack file and removed popup notification (SPAWN wouldnt leed me astray)
Where is this IPCHECK.CGI everyone is refering to. Mine will only pop up in forumsdisplay and only when returning to it. refreshing it wont work.

hey all...
i have been following this thread since day one...
lurking in the shadows...tring it out every week or so...having no luck at all...nothing would work...but today...i look around...i grab the newest code posted...and *POOF* i now have IM's...now....
my question is...when i click on the persons name that sent it...inside the im itself...it 404's i can read it so its cool...but why does it do that??...
also...
it DOES NOT like Netscape 4.7 for some reason...the online icons get REAL messed up...showing up in diffeent places and such...im gonna go back over the whole thread and see if i missed something...but if anyone KNOWS what i missed...can ya kick me a bit and show me the way... ??
thanx
Sometime recently, allen added multiple "fixes" to the files which made them work improperly...that is why, right there.
That's also the reason I never installed with allen's files, and I bothered borg to get them
. (this was a long time ago, do not bug borg to get them).
And Spawn...I don't really care what you were doing. My point is it's just unnecessary and confusing...
I mean, look at all these newbies that don't understand what's going on as it is, that kind of thing certainly isn't helping them.
------------------
I have the january 3 Hack installed I have to leave the formsdisplay and return to get the pop up to come up where do I look.
Also I just want to thank Allan and Spawn for all there help over the last couple of months. I may not no what Im doing but Im a lot better off

Actualy this is funny, i get the same idea lately, most important they forgot is, read the whole topic, and same questions been asked for couple times. Just like you said i shouldnt do that, but man i am getting realy tired of those IM's i get...
For the last time guys please dont ask me questions about mods if they aren't mine even if they are my mods please use the topic for, from now on i dont answer questions about any mods throught IM
------------------
uh......
Spawn, do you ever sleep?
Those
were borg's files... he sent me unfinished work and we limped along trying to finish them, which is why it is
still in the beta forum... months after release...
Speed, there's quite a few ways to add pop-ups to different places on your board, read back through this thread for now... I will update the install text to show them all...
Spawn... know what you mean about the im's here...
which is why I don't add the pop-ups to more places...
BigBudz... not sure what the 404's are from... can you tell what it is trying to go to?

i send the message..ok..everything is good...
now..
when i recieve the message..
i see the persons name its comming from...
its a clickable link..to reply im guessing from reading the posts here..so i click it...
all bad...404's...file not found it says..
this is the file its calling ( im guessing ) when i right click on the link for properties..
cgi-bin/privateview.cgi?action=viewUBBIM&antiAOL=#
and also...im i SUPPOSED to see these things in my PM inbox at all??
cuz it shows a new message there..
but i cant see it...only in the pop-up window..im guessing thats why its giving the error...
also..anyone know why netscape 4.7 displays the IMonline icon so wierd..???

This is an great idea, is someone working on it?
BigBudz - I have exactly the same problem as you !! 404 message when I press the senders name !!
Also can't see the message in my in-box , only with the pop-ups ( Not that big a problem !)
Do you guys have instant messages set to:
$instantmsg = "yes";
in your private.cfg file? Makes a
big difference...

it was not set that way...

I have been working with this all day I have even added the window will close in 3 seconds hack on page 9 and yes I changed no to yes in the cfg file.I noticed in privatesend .cgi that I only have one thing that had to be edited instead of two The one that includes you dont have permissions to send pms is not there. I changed the one and cleaned up the mess Everything works but only in fourmsdisplay and you have to go to the main page and back to get the pop up. I thought I had version 3.5b. Heres a username and password if anyone could give me some help here. I have read all thru these threads. USERNAME: user PASSWORD: pass

You bet its that piece of code:
>>>Find in privateview.cgi(or any other for that matter):

Oh, and allen...there was and is a long stretch since you had borg's files. All these "fixes"...

Alot of you guys need to check to see what version of PM your using I have version 3.5b
I changed out privatesend.cgi and privateview.cgi with the new files in 3.8 redid the code in privatesend.cgi for the autoclose addon and now I have no more 404 error. Still chasing the other problems.
Question wrong forum but related what all files do I have to change to finish the upgrade to 3.8 and is there any additional scrip changes.

ok...welp....these are what my problems are now...still 404 errors when i click on the reply...netscape 4.7 and the IMonline.gif icon

the code its looking for is...

BigBudz - did you get the 404 message working with Dark Templars fix ??
did not work for me
Quite a few bugs have been squashed if you guys are still trying to run 3.5b or any other version before this week or so, no additional scripting is needed, just upload all files in the pm download. It fixed that $cgiurl weeks ago...
For those who used DT's fix, it is
$CGIURL
not $CGIUrl
just upload the new pm files to fix that and a few others...

there should be something in the install instructions telling users to use 3.8 and nothing else...heheh

now about the netscape thing i got going on....with the icon showning up all over the screen...
heh
anyone got ANY clue what the matter???
just a question...probaly a dumb one...but..
why is this icon not set up like the others...
IE: $ThisAIM $SendPrivate $ThisYID $ThisICQ
why cant there just be a simple $ThisUBBIM or something in there set up just like the others...does it REALLY matter if its written this way... ( not like im smart enough to change the code to do it but still )...those icons work in both IE and netscape no problems...no wondering where the code goes...

Hi Speed. There's a hack written by Turbanator that will add meta tags in the forumdisplay.cgi and ultimate.cgi so they refresh every 90 seconds (you can change those intervals). I'm wondering if this hack could be implemented with ubbIM. If someone would like "AUTO-REFRESH FEATURE HACK" PM me and I'll send it to you.

Sorry Spawn and ST8, my fault
I can't get the popup to work in online.cgi

My guests wonder if there's a way to make the popup not to show if they've already read the IM, and just popup when they get a new one!

I'm not an expert on pearl but it wouldn't
be that hard to do! In my forum I tried to
send a IM to my self, then I went in to my
PM Inbox and read it, and now it don't show
up when I "move" around in the forum!
So all thats have to be done is in

Could someone have a look at this?
Ok imcheck is installed it has to be working because in Ultimate cgi the curser will flash every 30 seconds. Pop up windows will still only come up if you f5 refresh or change pages.
Fourmsdisplay dont refresh. Is there something to change in fourmsdisplay to get these things to pop up automaticly.

speed i was on your board but your SSI call in the imcheck html doesnt work, this refresh thing i give you was only for Ultimate.cgi i didnt make one for forumdisplay.cgi but that is not so big deal try your SSI to let work
You got still your old IMcheck routine in your Ultimate.cgi, thats why you get the first message but you should remove that, and put a 1*1pixel image in your noncgi directory.

There is two imchek routines in that hack for ult cgi one goes to PMon and the other goes to pmoff I noticed on your board you dont have either. I am not sure how I got the one in the search routine must have been early this morning. Now all I have to do is hit the books and find out what your talking about 1*1pixle image (does this image get put in the imcheck.html) Or name it what?

No its already in imcheck.cgi but you dont have a 1X1 pixel image in your noncgi directory and its not loading.
You know how to make 1X1pixel transparrant image right?
------------------
I am in over my head here Im trying to use logic. I am sure you know what your talking about. actually Im lost. Let me see if I understand make a 1x1 tranparent image call it what and put it where. Now you know the level of my confusion. You already know that my imcheck.cgi is in my cgi-bin and my imcheck.html is in my root dir. but I am lost.????? Ive got my head stuck so far in these books I hope they dont close on me.

heheh no panic
First your SSI doesnt work, thus you have to fix that. Thats most important if you want auto checkin will let work.
Second download this file and unzip empty.gif than upload it to your Noncgi(ubb) directory
http://spawnboard.hypermart.net/empty.zip Why did i put this in a zip file/ becouse its a 1by1 pixel transparrant file if i post it without you couldnt see it

OK I have learned a whole bunch from this hack I know it will work If I can can map the html to ssi I just did it wrong and it locked me off the board but the im windows poped up on the desk top. All I need to know Is at server map In application settings what do I map html to in win 2000 server I tried D:WINNTSystem32inetsrvssinc.dll Which worked for popup but wouldnt let me get on the board. That is already maped to shtml

To make the javascript look for new IMs every 30 seconds why not put it in a tiny little iframe with no border and have that refresh every so often?
Spawn could you take a look at my board again. I have got ssi working. If I view source after going to
http://www.esteroumc.com/imcheck.html I can see the script that I entered for the hack in the ultimate cgi. But still they dont auto pop up.

Hey you got it working man! congratulations man, Everything worked ok for me.
But for third time remove the code for IMcheck in your Ultimate.cgi becouse everytime you get on Ultimate.cgi you get 2 popups for same message.

Yes thats the trick
It sounds like you looked on my board or on speeds board
Here is the zip file with a html, cgi file and a readme file.
http://spawnboard.hypermart.net/ImCheckRefresh.zip
This is for autochecking for IM's in amount of seconds, i documented this only for Ultimate.cgi but if you want this in another place just put this in the cgi where you want it.

I removed that around 9:00 pm That may have been doing that because there was one in there that had been there for a while.It wouldnt delete or index
I still dont get them to pop up without f5
They come up if I change pages. I loged onto my other computer and sent one and it didnt pop up till I changed pages. I removed the db file in private folder for user that is the hard way but I have made changes before. and had to do that. Now if I can just get them topop up without changing pages.
Hey thanks for all your help
Do you think I ought to post the server config for ssi in win 2000. I dont want to confuse anyone If you set it wrong it can take you all the way out.

Where does that other code go to add this to other files such as threads.

Just a question!
All those people with NS4?
Correct if I'm wrong, NS4 don't support iframe!
15 pages and still going strong.....could this be a record?
spawn... do you remember? my imcheck.cgi give a 500 error. i found why on my other bord on virtualve.
Undefined subroutine &main::UBBIM_count called at imcheck.cgi line 30.
but i don't understand why...
------------------
TyRaN = tyranausaure
make sure imcheck is in the same directory as ubb_library.pl because it calls UBBIM_count from that file, check the require line at the top and where imcheck.cgi is in relation to ubb_library.pl
I'm having problems with double pop up's. I'll get a pop-up in the Forum display, delete it, go into Ultimate.cgi and the same exact message pops up. Does anyone have a clue why this is occuring? Thanks
I am getting the same thing I have removed all of the original 2.0 script from fourmsdisplay.cgi and posting.cgi I left all the original script from im2.0 in lib.pl and lib2.pl I think thats right? I am under the understanding that that occurs from having two imchecks in the same file.Also if I hit the delete button on the pop up it deletes the message but still shows I have one in my inbox that dont go away until I manually refresh. Guess it still needs a little work but Its a great hack.

Did you ever get that white page thing with Instant Messages sorted out ?? I had that problem for a long time and could not sort it out !! I think it was something to do with cookies , because when I deleted them it worked.

One question for you - Have you ever used a SSI command on virtualave ?? I connot get it to work. (eg )

See what your shtml is maped to and create a new map in your server to HTML do not inherit your other directorys.
ULTRA GIRL I am looking for it I think its something in lib2.pl because I am only getting double pop ups on a f5 refresh
we need to figure out a way to stop the pop ups after they start if you minimize your main page and forget about, someone sends you a instant message it will just keep duplicating. I am not getting any sound in fourmsdisplay on pop up either

Ok, lets make one thing clear.
The reason that you get dubble popups is,
you didnt remove the old code like i told you in the readme file.
About the popups coming back if you dont delete them, there is no check routine in the im popups to mark as read.
Thats only possible in the PM inbox (if you read them there).
I tryed to make something for that, it worked ok when you get one message, popup showed once and on every
refresh not anymore, But if you have a popup with more messages, it will popup again and again with the first message left out.
I should say be patienced, till things come out, The problems we talk about are known problems,
and its also documented in readme files.
Again if you want things work perfectly wait till everything is good documented, than install.
The reason i made the imcheck is, becouse couple guys asked for, and i tryed to let work.
It works now but not 100% waterproof
Only thing 100% good works is the IM self, and you know its in the beta
statement, things around IM, like auto IMcheck is even more beta than IM self.
Oh geez i think those ware my 2 cents
Be patienced my fiends be patienced

I have removed all the old imcheck routines from Ultimate cgi. I only get the double pop up one time,Still get them, I know what your saying. Thats no big deal though.But I just dont understand why I get them. And If you use ST8 hack above It will elimanate multiple windows to a degree, Which also works out ok. I set ST8
hack to 50 seconds which only gives you a maximum of 3 windows to close and if you delete the message they will close all anyway. I think this is ok,If you dont add that autoclose for pop ups and you minimize your ubb screen and walk away you would have countless number of windows to close, if someone sent you a message.
With the IMcheck cgi and autoclosing windows you can comunicate almost as well as aim.
At least thats the way it works on my board. USE the password and username Igave you and look I am happy with it.

PS: Would be great with only 1 popup eventough the user dont deletes it. DS.
If you use this in the header, dont forget to remove all your imcheck routines from your other cgi files, but one
thing this will not work with NS older versions than 6
And if you do a search in all forums you get so much popups as your forums, if the im is sendt when the search was bussy
ST8, i was totaly forgotten within enthusiasm making the autocheck with Frames, i made quick a html file, but
this improves the im check for installing imautocheck, thanks.

Spawn I finally figured out what you was saying daaa! All I would have had to do is look at the script and I should have figured it out. But still get double pop ups. This may be normal only get them once, the second message will be a single. And it has to be on a F5 refresh, or IM coming in as I change back to the ultimate.cgi page. I can live with it. Also I dont know if you have this but when there is a IM the newsfader bar goes blank. Not complaining just letting you know. It comes back if I change pages or refresh. Plus my sound works now!

Upload imcheck.cgi to CGIDIR, chmod it 755
Upload im.gif to NON cgi dir
Use the IFRAME line to call imcheck.cgi and
dont forget to change SRC to match your

My site is in frames so i simply added this
IFRAME line to my static left navbar
(eg: leftbar.shtml). I guess there shouldnt
be a problem to add the IFRAME line to your
header in cpanel. Only differens from U is
that i use frames.
I must say that when using a FRAMED site and
then add IFRAME in a static .html file and
then add another IFRAME to privateview.cgi
sure slowed things down. I removed the IFRAME
from privateview.cgi and things got much
better. I guess my users have to get used to
delete there IM popups from now on

Using an iframe is a bad idea, since only ie supports it. As it has been said, some java expert needs to make a loop to have it check every half minute or so. It could also be integrated into the Perl, but it would take some more complex Perl (more than I know).

I feel somewhat stupid after tryin to read through all those pages. I installed the IM 2.0 hack and the offline/online works fine. However, whenever i attempt to send a message i get the following message:
The message continues with referral info to the webmaster (myself) etc.
Could there be something i didnt add or added incorrectly?
PLEASE HELP
make sure the path the perl is correct in the cgi files
the
#!/usr/bin/perl
line, its not the usual path in the private message hack.
Also check that all cgis are chmoded to 755 or 777

I'm having the same exact problem. It shows offline for everyone, but I'm able to send instant messages just fine. I've always had the Who's Online, but the IM icon does not show up on it.
Help!?!?!
Possibly a cookie issue... are you using the latest copy of private messages? We updated it some a week or so ago to improve the way it handled cookies. Just copy new over old.

We have the latest version. We downloaded it this past weekend.
If it is a cookie issue, then what coding should I be looking at?
HELP ME PLEASE
You are using v1.8 of the "who's online", I believe the directions in the UBB im's say that you should be using v2.1b, which fixed several issues with the "who's online" mod.
Start there by upgrading that.

Thank you so much...didn't even notice that. I'll give it a shot and let you know if it worked.
Just noticed an odd bug (at least on mine + yes, the newest version. dl on 01.17.01) If the subject of a private message has an apostraphe (Example: Don't Ask) it is showing up as Don!APO!t Ask
Any suggestions?

On mine, when I run perl UBonline.cgi from telnet, because from the web I'm getting a internal server error, it can't do the line:
(FILE,"$MembersPath/online.cgi")
What is online.cgi, and where can I get ahold of it?
I installed it, but the images won't show up and when I click on it I am getting a 500 Error. Help Please
Did you CHMOD UBonline.cgi to 755?
------------------
It is work perfectly for me except this. When people log into their boxes from ultimate.cgi and they click on their messages it redirects them to a page that shows the login box again. I pls need help.

Ok, I have read through each page...and unless I was a little punchy due to the late hours....I can't seem to recall seeing a fix for some of the display problems in Netscape. I am sorry if it is in there somewhere and I missed it, but I did read through it all over a day and a half...hoping I missed it the first time, etc. As usualy, everything works fine in IE...but the online/offline images appear at random (it seems) in NS. I'm back into the thread to re-re-read everything again.
I have installed UBB IM 2 which works perfectly in IE but images appear randomly in Netscape 4.75.......Does anyone have any idea what I need to do to make the code Netscape compatible. I assume its the old Netscape/Java problem?
Anyone?
Mine was fixed with an older version...or maybe newer...(just different version) of UBonline.cgi.
I am using the older UBOnline.cgi and it works perfectly in NS/IE. I knew my theory about 'adding new features' was bad
where can I get this older file? the one that is compatible with NS!!! Do I need to change all the modifications in the other scripts or just replace the UBBonline.cgi
Can someone supply me with the older version and instructions on what I need to do to make it work......
Thanks
Man I posted this about a moth ago and I see a lot of others having the problems I am experiencing - I honestly hope someone can provide some answers here:
I have combined IM, Who's Online, and PM.
Evertything works in IE except it is rather jumpy to some members. The problems are with Netscape - all versions - and there are problems!
1 - someone trying to get there PM's after logging their info are taken right back to the login page!
2 - All the "ONLINE" icons line-up after the user name in the very first post of the thread instead of being next to each users name.
I copied the latest hacks about a month ago and have the following:
5.47a UBB
Private Message v3.8 - 12/23/2000
Online 2.01b - 8/2/00 @ 11:50
I KNOW some of you either are currently facing this problem or have figured out how to fix it! PLEASE give the many others of us who are having this problem a little help - please!
I have stopped using IM's as it takes up too much resources on the server.
Anyone know how I can get the who's online icon to appear next to the names of who's online in (online.cgi). This was I can send an IM without having to find of the users posts.
Thanks.
Thats what I was looking for, thanks very much. It may be worth adding it to the database?
