Making The ICQ, YIM, MSN and AIM Images Static

[forsakenlad]

In some themes, the icq and the yim images look really bad, because the images are called from the icq and the yim websites. Here I will explain the way to make them static:

SMF 2.0 Beta3 and Below:

First open up your Display.template.php file and search for this:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

', $message['member']['icq']['link'], '
', $message['member']['msn']['link'], '
', $message['member']['aim']['link'], '
', $message['member']['yim']['link'], '

And replace it like this:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

', $message['member']['msn']['link'], '';
if ($message['member']['icq']['href'])
echo '
<a href="', $message['member']['icq']['href'], '" target="_blank"><img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/icq.gif" border="0" /></a>';
if ($message['member']['yim']['href'])
echo '
<a href="', $message['member']['yim']['href'], '" target="_blank"><img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/yim.gif" border="0" /></a>';
echo '
', $message['member']['aim']['link'], '

SMF 2.0 Beta4 and Above:

First open up your Display.template.php file and search for this:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<li>
                        <ul class="nolist">
                           ', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['icq']) && !empty($message['member']['icq']['link']) ? '<li>' . $message['member']['icq']['link'] . '</li>' : '', '
                           ', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['msn']) && !empty($message['member']['msn']['link']) ? '<li>' . $message['member']['msn']['link'] . '</li>' : '', '
                           ', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['aim']) && !empty($message['member']['aim']['link']) ? '<li>' . $message['member']['aim']['link'] . '</li>' : '', '
                           ', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['yim']) && !empty($message['member']['yim']['link']) ? '<li>' . $message['member']['yim']['link'] . '</li>' : '', '
                        </ul>
                     </li>';

And replace it like this:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<li>
                        <ul class="nolist">
                           ', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['icq']) && !empty($message['member']['icq']['link']) ? '<li><a href="'. $message['member']['icq']['href']. '" target="_blank"><img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/icq.gif" border="0" /></a></li>' : '', '
                           ', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['msn']) && !empty($message['member']['msn']['link']) ? '<li><a href="'. $message['member']['msn']['href']. '" target="_blank"><img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/msn.gif" border="0" /></a></li>' : '', '
                           ', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['aim']) && !empty($message['member']['aim']['link']) ? '<li><a href="'. $message['member']['aim']['href']. '" target="_blank"><img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/aim.gif" border="0" /></a></li>' : '', '
                           ', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['yim']) && !empty($message['member']['yim']['link']) ? '<li><a href="'. $message['member']['yim']['href']. '" target="_blank"><img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/yim.gif" border="0" /></a></li>' : '', '
                        </ul>
                     </li>';



Now you won't have to deal with those ugly images that are called from the actual websites. Note that after doing this, the online status won't be shown -obviously-

Sorry to resurrect a possibly dead thread but how would I go about changing this in SMF 2.0 beta 4?

my Display.template.php looks like this:

Code Auswählen Erweitern


<li>
<ul class="nolist">
', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['icq']) && !empty($message['member']['icq']['link']) ? '<li>' . $message['member']['icq']['link'] . '</li>' : '', '
', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['msn']) && !empty($message['member']['msn']['link']) ? '<li>' . $message['member']['msn']['link'] . '</li>' : '', '
', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['aim']) && !empty($message['member']['aim']['link']) ? '<li>' . $message['member']['aim']['link'] . '</li>' : '', '
', !isset($context['disabled_fields']['yim']) && !empty($message['member']['yim']['link']) ? '<li>' . $message['member']['yim']['link'] . '</li>' : '', '
</ul>
</li>';

Updated the first post accordingly. Thanks for pointing it out.

That completely borked me

Template Parse Error!
There was a problem loading the /Themes/default/Display.template.php template or language file. Please check the syntax and try again - remember, single quotes (') often have to be escaped with a slash (\). To see more specific error information from PHP, try accessing the file directly.

You may want to try to refresh this page or use the default theme.

Why not add the solution to the first post?

[Arantor]

Because a month ago I didn't have moderator powers, and it was being done as a support request based off this tip.

[forsakenlad]

Hehe I was just requesting it so it be done now.

[Arantor]

Also if you read the other thread, the solution by me was in fact incorrect (twice because I was having a bad day) though the user fixed it himself with no final solution posted.
