[Beta 1.5.1] AdvIM

[Gobalopper]

Good point, didn't notice that before, I'll change it in the next version.

Oh and I'll put message order as an mod settings option, either by date ascending or descending. I was thinking of having the option to order by things like name but I will leave it out for now.

[Gobalopper]

Ok I've now made the file available on my server. Let me know of any bugs. I hope to have another update with ordering by date this weekend.

There are still some hardcoded English phrases, I will move those to the .lng in the next version.

[Gobalopper]

Ok new version out.

RC 4:
-you can now order IMs by name, subject, and date
-a default ordering can be choosen on the mod settings page
-improvements to javascript code for checking off messages, they are now highlighted when selected
-1 is the smallest number of IMs you can set, anything else will default back to 1
-added in the missing $txt phrases
-fixed some queries that wouldn't always return all results

[MC600]

Ok, the new version also has a bug.

Includes the news to be archived one apostrophe (') or a backslash (\) isn't the message archived!

InstantMessage.php in this one function IMBackup add:

Code Select Expand

  $subject = mysql_escape_string($subject);
   $body = mysql_escape_string($body);
excuse my bad one English

[MC600]

Code Select Expand

function IMBackup()
{
   global $username, $txt, $yySetLocation, $cgi, $caller, $id, $db_prefix, $ID_MEMBER, $modSettings, $settings;

   checkSession('get');

   if ($username == 'Guest')
      fatal_error($txt[147]);

   $field = ($caller == 1) ? 1 : 0;

   $check = mysql_query("SELECT deletedBy,ID_MEMBER_TO,toName,ID_MEMBER_FROM,fromName,msgtime,subject,body FROM {$db_prefix}instant_messages WHERE (ID_IM=$id AND ID_MEMBER_" . ($caller == 1 ? 'TO' : 'FROM') . "='$ID_MEMBER')");
   list ($db,$toID,$toName,$fromID,$fromName,$msgtime,$subject,$body) = mysql_fetch_row($check);

   $subject = mysql_escape_string($subject);
   $body = mysql_escape_string($body);

Awesome mod. Any chance you would code it also with 1.3.x-1.4.x  coding standards? I tried to change everything to work with my board but didn't get it to work, mainly the mod settings page didn't work no matter what I did.

I think this would a mod which would be awesome for also those users who aren't using 1.5.0 yet.

[MC600]

I have written it, see here, for 1.4.x: IM Archiv

[Hypocrite]

If I understood german correctly your mod only has the archive or backup function of this mod? I'm more interested about the other functions this mod has, arranging messages by different types and limiting the amount of messages a user can have.

Thank you anyway for the tip.

[Gobalopper]

Hypocrite I don't have any plans to make this backwards compatible as I've got a bunch of other mods I want to write first. Someone else can do it though and I may come back later to do it myself.

Thanks for the heads up MC600. I've fixed that and I also forgot to include the javascript file so I've reuploaded RC4 to my server.

btw, does anyone want to write the changes to german.lng for me?

Thanks for the translation MC600, if only I knew some German.
I will take a look at your mod tomorrow MC600, it sounds fairly similar to mine, is there an English translation for it too?

I think I've found a way to avoid creating a new table to stored your backupbox messages. I don't know if it will work yet but if it does I will include it in the next version.

[Gobalopper]

Ok RC5 is out. I think I've made it work without having to use a second table for storing the backupbox messages. Please do some testing with that aspect and let me know if you have problems. Its a bit of a hack, using a readBy of -1 to say you've backed the message up and then deletedBy to say whether the person storing it is the sender or receiver. It should work though!

[MC600]

if I try to delete a message from the Backupbox, I receive the following error message:

2: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource
(C:\wampp2c\htdocs\yabb150mod\Sources\InstantMessage.php ln 979)

or

2: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource
(C:\wampp2c\htdocs\yabb150mod\Sources\InstantMessage.php ln 943)

much joke  

[Gobalopper]

Hehe, and I was just about to goto sleep.

I will take a look, probably a typo in my query.
