Skype vBa CMPS Module

[dieselpowered]

Well seeing how vBulletin 3.5.2 includes Skype integration, I thought it would be a good idea to include a module to inform people.

Download the attached getskype.zip and unzip it. You will be left with a getskype.module

Go into your admincp --> vBa CMPS --> Download / Upload Module

Click browse and find the getskype.module
Select A Column (I use RIGHT)
Select YES for active
Select YES if you would like it to appear on all pages (if you select NO, you will need to manually select it on the pages you wish to display it on)
Select the style you wish to have the template included on
Click submit, check your settings and you should be good to go!

This module uses my information for the skype image...you can keep it, however, if you wish to change it, replace my code between:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------


Which is located in the new adv_portal_skype template

This was tested using:

vBa CMPS 2.0
vBulletin 3.5.2

I will do my best to assist if you run into any issues, if you use, please CLICK INSTALL :)

I cannot do screenshots from work, however, you can see it working at Weapon Depot (http://www.weapondepot.com) (the module is located in the upper right of the site)

this is a great idea, a HowTo... can be done for all the IM systems btw, most people don't know the difference between icq, msn, skype, ym, etc...

great !!

Thanks nexialys, I had made this for my site to let people know about Skype since I think it is a great addition to vBulletin. Just wanted to share atleast a little since there are so many people on here who build great hacks that I use. Wish it could be more, however, I know coding like I know Chinese ;)

Yeah this is nice, I haven't got Skype integration yet but I'm thinking it could be a good idea.

No worries, do you have a portal installed?

vBa CMPS is a portal program, if you do not have it and are interested, it can be found at http://www.vbadvanced.com :)
