Dead links in code for yahoo messenger

[spiros]

From load.php.

Code Select Expand

'href' => 'http://edit.yahoo.com/config/send_webmesg?.target=' . urlencode($profile['yim']),
'link' => '<a class="yim" href="http://edit.yahoo.com/config/send_webmesg?.target=' . urlencode($profile['yim']) . '" title="' . $txt['yim_title'] . ' - ' . $profile['yim'] . '"><img src="http://opi.yahoo.com/online?u=' . urlencode($profile['yim']) . '&amp;m=g&amp;t=0" alt="' . $txt['yim_title'] . ' - ' . $profile['yim'] . '" /></a>',
'link_text' => '<a class="yim" href="http://edit.yahoo.com/config/send_webmesg?.target=' . urlencode($profile['yim']) . '" title="' . $txt['yim_title'] . ' - ' . $profile['yim'] . '">' . $profile['yim'] . '</a>'

Yes... we know.   It's been mentioned several times

Yahoo went and changed their system...  which, once again, proves the smf point that, using third party sites invites nothing but trouble

<img src="http://opi.yahoo.com/online?u=' . urlencode($profile['yim']) . '&amp;m=g&amp;t=0" alt="' . $txt['yim_title'] . ' - ' . $profile['yim'] . '" /> to a local image stored on your server. just leave the alt text part replace the rest.

Thanks, this is what I did and fixed:

Code Select Expand

<img src="https://www.translatum.gr/forum/Themes/citiez_20a/images/yim.gif" alt="' . $txt['yim_title'] . ' - ' . $profile['yim'] . '" />

Is it possible to give a relative path for the image? What should it be like?

[Illori]

you could possibly use $themedir or similar but that really does not change much. why do you want to change to a relative path?

[spiros]

I thought it would be better not to make an extra call every time a page with yahoo is loaded...

So this fixes part of the problem for the yahoo image but it is defined for profile in another place: see attached.

What file contains this callout?

[Kindred]

All  of the references draw from the array in Load.php --- unless you have mod which violates those standards...

Code Select Expand


'yim' => $profile['yim'] != '' && (empty($modSettings['guest_hideContacts']) || !$user_info['is_guest']) ? array(
'name' => $profile['yim'],
'href' => 'http://edit.yahoo.com/config/send_webmesg?.target=' . urlencode($profile['yim']),
'link' => '<a class="yim" href="http://edit.yahoo.com/config/send_webmesg?.target=' . urlencode($profile['yim']) . '" title="' . $txt['yim_title'] . ' - ' . $profile['yim'] . '"><img src="http://opi.yahoo.com/online?u=' . urlencode($profile['yim']) . '&amp;m=g&amp;t=0" alt="' . $txt['yim_title'] . ' - ' . $profile['yim'] . '" /></a>',
'link_text' => '<a class="yim" href="http://edit.yahoo.com/config/send_webmesg?.target=' . urlencode($profile['yim']) . '" title="' . $txt['yim_title'] . ' - ' . $profile['yim'] . '">' . $profile['yim'] . '</a>'
) : array('name' => '', 'href' => '', 'link' => '', 'link_text' => ''),

Thanks Kindred,

Didn't think about mods interfering here. It could be ultimate profile, I have changed load.php and yahoo icon is working in memberlist. Ill figure out where the problem is.

[Illori]

search your source for opi.yahoo.com and change all locations of it.

[rosewillrnx]

Thanks Illori,

I'll do that shortly, I am sure it will fix the problem.
