Private messaging and view user profile

Hey,

by now txp is running perfectly :D
Im also using ign_password_protect and mem_self_register. So users can also register now on my site.
My question is now. Is it to possible that logged in useres can view other users in the front end? And also send a private message? Would be more than perfect. I searched for it, but till now i didnt find anything.

And im also trying to use mem_moderation_article, but when i put <txp:mod_article_form /> in my form then i dont get any output.

I want to thank you now already guys. sooo much

Re: Private messaging and view user profile

Txphorum had a tag that allowed you to see other people logged in. I don’t recall if it was their user names or the number of people logged in. I also don’t know if it will work out side of the forum context. However, it might be worth a try. It’s the only thing I’m aware of that shows that, if one of the mem_ plugins doesn’t show it. (Also, I believe Bloke and Gocom have private forum adaptations. Perhaps they have something to help).

There are a couple of private/public notepads around that allow you to post messages to people, but I’ve never heard of a user to user email type private messaging plugin.

Sorry

Correct. It’s part of ign_password_protect. Have a look at <txp:ign_usr_online>.

User names.

(Also, I believe Bloke and Gocom have private forum adaptations. Perhaps they have something to help).

I think you’re right that Gocom had a version. I also made some mods to TXPhorum and can demonstrate a lightweight forum in action — it was made in collaboration with Uli and jakob. Get in touch if anyone is interested.

Me neither. Aren’t there 3rd party tools one can install to do that on a site?

Re: Private messaging and view user profile

Hey thanks for the replies.
Right now im trying to write my own private message plugin ;D And its works so far.

The only thing i need now is usercenter(not so hard to make on my own) and a view profile part.

I guess TXPhorum is a own forum, but i would just need the pm function of it :D

Bloke

Thanks for clarifying my foggy memory :D

Txphorum was a plugin to create a light weight forum using a standard textpattern install and several other available plugins (mem_self_register, ign_password, etc.) I don’t recall a pm function.

Keep us posted on your progress and plugin. It sounds interesting :)

Cool!

It’s a forum in the sense that it allows people to post a topic in any category of your choosing and others can then reply to that thread. All the usual simple forum things like editing own posts, rudimentary profile updating (no avatar yet), last post date/author, filtering by category/author and searching are available. But that is it right now.

There is no pm part to the forum, so if you would please keep me up to date on the progress of your PM plugin I’d like to see if it could become an optional module for those users that need it.

FYI, TXPhorum also has no management info screen and no moderator facilities. Yet.

And I’d like to stress that last word ;-)

Re: Private messaging and view user profile

Re: Private messaging and view user profile

Does someone have an idea how to view a profile in the frontend? Maybe it works with smd_query, i just dont know how. Maybe something like that:

<txp:smd_query query=‘SELECT name, email FROM txp_users WHERE name = “TAKENAMEOFURL”’>

And then the url might be look like: www.xxx.com/user/USERNAME

Does someone has any idea?
