The is a re-re-release of the Private Messages Mod. It is for v3.1 SR4 and newer of Snitz Forums 2000. It was originally released by slemieux, I have just modified it so that it will work with v3.1 Final and newer and incorporated the bugfixes mentioned in previous threads.
To use this with versions prior to v3.1 SR4 you will need to edit some files
If you have already installed the Private Messages Mod and it's working, then there is no need to download this one. There is no new functionality, I have just incorporated all of the fixes that were posted in the previous thread. Except for the request by jlaw to have the New PM # be a different color so it will stand out more.
I fixed the CColor problem and did some other stuff with the colors on the pm_view.asp page so that it's more uniform with the forum. You probably won't notice it. But it should be fixed for Netscape viewers now. If not, please let me know by posting in this thread.
Please read the included pm_readme.txt file before installing this mod.

jlaw,
Your request to have the # of private messages be a different color is in the release above. If the PM count is 1 or greater, it will be shown as the ActiveLink color. If you want to change it to a different color, just open privatemess.asp and search for strActiveLinkColor and change it to whatever you want. |

I already installed your previous private message. I am wondering if I only have to install over the old files if I wanna use this new prviate message mod.

Yes, just replace the files. The only database change was changing FORUM_PM.M_OUTBOX to a byte datatype for Access. For MS SQL it is a bit value and for MySQL it is a tinyint value.
I am going to go back through all of the files tonight and make sure that there is no FORUM_ specified and only strTablePrefix or strMemberTablePrefix. So, if you want to wait until then... (I had forgotten about that from the previous thread). |

I was going through privatemess.asp and I found a couple things missing.
<table border=0 width="80%" cellspacing=1 cellpadding=1 bgcolor="<% =strTableBorderColor %>" > Is missing at the top of the table.
colspan="2" the 2 is missing from the colspan.
and </table> is missing at the end of the sript.
Just thought you would like to know.

| I'll take a look at it. Are you comparing it to a different version of the same file? I didn't delete any <table> tags, so I'm not sure why they are missing. |

Then it might have just been mine then. B/c My last </table> tag was missing, b/c it made my whole forum go to the settings of it since it didn't close the table in the privatemess.asp....hehe

OK, I went through all of the .asp files in this mod and made sure all of the Table names are referred to as either strMemberTablePrefix or strTablePrefix, I had missed 2 of the cookies that I was converting to strDBNTUserName, those are fixed as well. All three sites listed in the topic of this thread have the updated .zip file.
Hopefully there won't be any more problems.... |

pm_ignore.asp
Sorry if that question was ever answered, I did a search and couldn't find an answer.
Is there any current use for the "ignore Button" beside the button itself !!!
If so, could I get the link to download it.
Thanks.

Does this update now make the outbox appear by default, does it write outbox=double into the cookie when a new user signs up? If not, is this possible to be done?
Cheers TIll

do you want it to be double or single? I just tried out adding some code to the top of pm_view.asp and it seems to work for me.
What it does is checks to see if the user already has the cookie, if not it sets it to "double" right now. But I can have it set to "single" also.
Double shows the Inbox with a button for the Outbox. Single shows both Inbox and Outbox on the same page.
You are requesting it default to "double" right? |

Just set it to double I think, they can then set it up how they like when they go into options!
