Change ICQ to MSN
« on: May 15, 2006, 02:54:38 PM »
Ok I've done some searches on the board and found little to no solid work arounds to changing the ICQ field to MSN. I dont use ICQ anymore and I dont have any users who do. All i want to do is change the ICQ field in the member_profile.html to be used as an MSN entry that will show if the user is online or offline, the same way the ICQ does.

I have the online indicator link http://www.onlinestatus.org/index.html

I tried to follow this thread on the subject http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=8748.0

but the feild isnt accepting an email address when i save the profile. It goes blank. Numbers will stay (old icq way) but no text. Tried messin with the attributes in the table through phpmyadmin but no success.


Anyone have any idea how to get this to work?

no one? Im surprised that no one has wanted to make this change. MSN is much more popular than ICQ.

because its easier just add a new field in the database and update includes/db_field_definitions.php
