Plug-ins en background by T-muts on 01-20-2005 at 08:01 PM

I have installed customess, a plug-in and I also installed some other plug-ins, but when i go to my plus! preferences he doens't find any plug-ins which I installed. Did I install them right than or something?
And with customess there can be backgrounds downloaded, but where are the preferences for a background? I can't find them...

Somebody help me plz?

Did you exit MSN Messenger when you installed the plugins?


RE: Plug-ins en background by T-muts on 01-20-2005 at 09:00 PM

I exit mseenger before installing, cause setup told me so...
is that what you mean?

Yeah, that's what I meant.

You didn't just sign out, right? You closed MSN Messenger entirely.

Did you try reinstalling the plugins? Just to make sure. I don't know what could be happening. Maybe someone with more knowledge on this may help, sorry.

I closed it entirely yes.
I also tried reinstalling, but I don't knwo if the directory where it is placed matters?

Yes, you must install it in the Plugins folder of Messenger Plus!

Usually this is in: C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! 3\Plugins

(the Program Files folder might change depending on the language, though)

If the plugin comes with an installationfile (exe) the files will be placed where they should be automaticly. If the plugin exist only out of a .dll, place this in C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! 3\Plugins. After that restart MSN Messenger.

If you installed correctly and and they still don't show up in the plugins list it means that specific plugin isn't compatible with the version of Plus! you are using.

If you got any problems with installing them, please tell us wich version of MSN Messenger and wich version of Plus! you are using. Also tell us wich plugins.
