PM messages to users using right-click meny?

Post by lordlion » 2003-02-05 23:11

I am not Operator at a Hub but am VIP.
So I want to help out and I need a way to click on a name and send the user a PM saying something like:

Please adjust your Share .... see +stats for more info etc...
Please adjust your nickname to.. ....

is there a feature like this or commands available in the advanced meny?
If not i think it would be a good add-on.

Tried playing around with the new User Menu Items that you can add in Settings -> Advanced?

Yes I have tried and I can use the %[nick] and %[mynick] to produce messages on the main chat but I cant make them into PM messages.
I have tried the "PM to (empty to send to main chat)"

I thought if I use %[nick] there I could send a PM message but no I could not. So what is the way to fix it?

Get your local hub scripter to write a script that will take a PM from you to the bot and forward it to the specified user. They/you can decided whether the user will see it as you sending the message or the bot. It's really not that hard to do.
===
-msg %[nick] %[line:message]
------
dim nick, msg
if command = "-msg" then
nick=BeforeFirst(Afterfirst(sCurData,"-msg ")," ")
msg=BeforeFirst(AfterFirst(sCurData,nick)," "))
colusers.Itembyname(nick).PrivateMessage cstr(curuser.sname),msg
end if


something like that should work....modified to work for your script that you use.

if you change one line of code in the dc++ code (if i remember correctly), then you can right-klick PM to people, i think it was like that i implimented it. This would require that you compile your own client..
Everyone is supposed to download from the hubs, - I don´t know why, but I never do anymore.
