[Solved] Doing something wrong?

thermalzombie

This discussion is related to the PM addon.

Hi since nobody else is having problems I must be doing something wrong.

For my pm message is currently set to: Send Thermalzombie a Message

In my settings for the plugin inside the textbox all that is entered is: PM

Did you put something like this: "Send {user} a Message}" (without quotes) inside the settings box and then click 'save'?

The default should populate that box to 'PM' unless if you've changed it.

No all that is in the box is PM tried re-enabaling it as well still the same.

Try putting the following in that box:

Send {user} a Message

The box should be populated with 'PM' upon default. If the plugin does not find the string, "{user}", then it will default to simply providing a link with the alt text as "PM" under each discussion.

"{user}" will be substituted with the discussion author's username. You can place this into whatever string you want to be displayed. I listed an example in the settings. You don't have to use that exact string for it to work.

I am sorry I am not good at explaining things.

this is what is displayed in forum.

Send Thermalzombie a Message

No matter what I put in Plugin box this does not change. I tried putting.

Send {user} a Message

and then saving then I tried entering.

PM saving then tried Contact Me and in forum nothing changes.

Is this information stored in the database can I change it there.

Thanks for replying.

Ah, it appears that I upload the testing file from my local copy instead of what I had on my server. I'll update the plugin. If you want to, just delete line 30 in class.pm.plugin.php

Thanks for the heads up.

thermalzombie

Thanks I deleted line 30 and is now fixed thanks.

I installed and enabled but it don't show. I put (user) Text to Display

Use {user} to substitute in a username in the text Example: Send {user} a Message => "Send Admin a Message" << not sure what this means

mcu_hq

If you use this{user} in the input box, then the username will be substitute into it. It probably makes more sense if you just look at the code for the plugin:

$Text = C('Plugin.PM.Text', 'PM');
        $Needle = '{user}';
        $Pos = strpos($Text,$Needle);
        if($Pos){
            $Text = str_replace($Needle, $UserName, $Text);
        }
