Title: Adding XFire to this forum
Post by: XtremeBain on September 07, 2007, 08:06:56 AM: I wanted to see if people think that we should add XFire to the forum user profiles here. This hack (http://www.smfhacks.com/hacks/XFire-Field.html) adds XFire in to profile and user information views just like the existing AIM/MSN/Y! ones. It's also probably the best implementation out there.

Disclaimer: If this is something that has to go to the Feature Vote thread, then just forget about it.

I take it your not a big fan of the Feature Vote?

True, watching P!nks avatar is on my to do list in the morning while drinking coffe. Calms me down and brings joy into my whole day.

Edit: +1 for that idea.

The package was installed successfully. You should now be able to use whatever functionality it adds or changes; or not be able to use functionality it removes.

This had better not break anything. :)

You do realize you can shut avatars off and they're disabled by default, right?

So this is ok but an older version of Vent is not.

Please explain.

Avatars FTW

Post by: XtremeBain on September 24, 2007, 05:29:32 PM: Thanks, jitspoe. Everyone goto http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;sa=forumProfile to add your Xfire name to your profile. I was sort of hoping it would show a little icon under the names like the AIM/ICQ ones used to. (Maybe it broke that?)

Edit: The icon almost shows up in the 'Who's online' area beside the other IM accounts. I forget if that's where I saw the icons or if it was under their name beside each post. Anyway, the xfire.gif image is broken, I think it needs to be copied over to the theme folder. The img src is: http://alt.dplogin.com/forums/Themes/dp2/images/XFire.gif

Post by: jitspoe on September 27, 2007, 08:35:37 PM: I disabled the icons in the posts a while back because they caused the page loads to take a long time. If you click on a person's name to view their profile, however, it lists the icq, yim, aim, xfire, etc.

Post by: XtremeBain on September 27, 2007, 09:03:22 PM: You still didn't fix the XFire.gif in the DP theme (it doesn't load on the Who's Online page).

Edit: oh I see, it's replaced with a hyperlink of their XFire name now, instead.
