There isn't really anything that has changed... The old Mod just wouldn't find a few lines because of added 'title' attributes and slight changes in another couple of lines...

Derek,

I found a slight problem in the MyNetworks_V_1_2.mod file which I had to correct on my installation.

Line 276:
Code:

		<a href="http://www.facebook.com/${$uid.$user}{'myspace'}" target="_blank">$mynetworks_txt{'04'} ${$uid.$user}{'realname'}</a>

Should be:
Code:

		<a href="http://www.facebook.com/${$uid.$user}{'facebook'}" target="_blank">$mynetworks_txt{'04'} ${$uid.$user}{'realname'}</a>

On the profile page, the Facebook link had the MySpace userID at the end instead of the Facebook ID.

I also changed the Facebook URL so that all the person had to do was put their Facebook Profile ID in on the Contact Information page in User CP.

Thanks for the mod!

DJ

I love this mod. Installed with no problems at all.

I did notice that a word added by the audio mod caused one step to "hiccup" but that was quickly and easily remedied.

I wish I could also have this same mod to add Xfire also?

How difficult would that be to also have Xfire along with myspace and facebook?

here is two images one is an old one I had and the little one i just made...

did you make this xfire button jet?

I've sent Spikecity a message over at YaBB. I've not seen him log in for a while though, so it all depends if he gets my message and gives me permission.

Right, Spikecity has given me permission to do this anyway... I never use XFire though, so before I do it, I'd like to know how you'd like it to be linked. Spikecity's original Mod linked to it by adding users as a friend, but from what I can see, to link to a users profile it would be 'http://xfire.com/profile/YourName'

What's the best way to link to an XFire profile?
