[RC1] Google Talk Messenger

Post by livn4metal »

This is a mod that will add Google Talk messenger to the list of available messenger applications on phpbb. I had installed this into my forum with no problems so far. Right now, I have it so when the Google Talk button has been clicked, your browser will be redirected to that user's profile where their Google Talk username is displayed. I hope to have it so when the button is clicked, Google Talk comes into focus and askes if you would like to invite that iser to your buddy list. I'm not sure how far i'll get with that on my own, I haven't tried to implement that yet.

Code: Select all

Looks very nice, hope you get the invite option installed too.

Would like to see a offline/online icon too

Something like:

Online the talk balloon icon is Green
Offline the talk balloon icon is Red/ white
Away the talk balloon icon is Yellow

Just like the ICQ one

ps maybe this mod helps:
http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=22732

It does give a pop-up and ask if you want to add this person or sent him a private message. It is for MSN but maybe you can talk to the author or adjust the mod to make it work for GT (google talk)

ICQ get's the user status information from their website:

Code: Select all

$icq_status_img = '<a href="http://wwp.icq.com/' . $postrow[$i]['user_icq'] . '#pager"><img src="http://web.icq.com/whitepages/online?icq=' . $postrow[$i]['user_icq'] . '&img=5" width="18" height="18" border="0" /></a>';
Unless I can talk a google guru into installing such a feature into talk.google.com, it's not going to work. :( Would have been great though.

Is there some way that you could make a GoogleTalk "chat room" on your site? Please excuse me if these is a really stupid question. :)

Google talk uses jabber/xmpp ptotocol

You can get the developer info here
Google talk : Devloper Info

Also you can look at some jabber based mods that will help build some functionality.
