Script Request - Ignore specific contacts by kb135 on 08-24-2006 at 01:48 PM

Hello

I searched the script base, and the internet too, but coudnt find what i need...
Maybe, anyone can help me here.

I am searching for a script that is able to "ignore" messages from specific contacts. So the messages will not beeing displayed.
If a message arrives from such a contact the script should "discard" the message, and should not show the message window.
And, if i accidently write a message to one of this "ignored" contacts, the script must discard my message to, so the message will not beeing send to this contact.

Sorry for my very poor english

open up a conversation with who you want to ignore and type thing "/block" it will ignore them . to unignore them type "/unblock"

is this the answer you were looking for?

i dont want to actually block the contact. the contact shoud see my onlinestatus, an i want to see the contacts onlinestatus. but i dont want to receive messages from it.
sure, i can just close the conversation window. but ist very annoying to constantly get new windows and closing it all by hand...

Not what was asked for. I'm guessing what was asked for is similar to SPNG's Ignore feature.

And this would be quite easy as a script. at least for incoming.

Edit: Like below, for instance.

code:
function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, Message, MessageKind){
if (Origin == Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact("Ignogred Contact 1").Name){
ChatWnd.SendMessage("/close");
}
if (Origin == Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact("Ignogred Contact 2").Name){
ChatWnd.SendMessage("/close");
}
if (Origin == Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact("Ignogred Contact 3").Name){
ChatWnd.SendMessage("/close");
}
}

Edit Ignored Contact 1/2/3 to the email of the contacts you want to ignore.

This would close the Chat Window as soon as the message is received and you will not even notice it, unless you have pop-up notifications for Messages.

This is exactly what i am looking for

Now i need to know how to block the pop-up messages too

I didn't think that was what you were after or else I would have posted an even better script for you.

code:
var list = Array();

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd,Origin,Message,MessageKind)
{
for (i=0; i<list.length;i++)
{
if (Origin === Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact(list[i]).Name)
{
ChatWnd.SendMessage("/close")
}
else
{
return Message;
}
}
}

function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd,Message)
{
if (Message === "!ignore")
{
var ChatWndContacts = ChatWnd.Contacts;
if(ChatWndContacts.Count == 1)
{
var e = new Enumerator(ChatWndContacts);
var Contact = e.item();
list[list.length] = Contact.Email
}
return "";
ChatWnd.SendMessage("/close")
}
else if (Message === "!unignore")
{
var ChatWndContacts = ChatWnd.Contacts;
if(ChatWndContacts.Count == 1)
{
var e = new Enumerator(ChatWndContacts);
var Contact = e.item();
for (i=0;i<list.length;i++)
{
if(Contact.Name === list[i])
{
list[i] = "";
}
}
return "";
}
}
}

I'm sorry I don't know how to stop the pop-ups either. The commands are "!ignore" and "!unignore". I hope you like it.

EDIT: Changed it with te advice of Mattike (I missed a ")"

)

WARNING! BUG!

code:
if (Origin === Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact(list[i].Name)

should be:

code:
if (Origin === Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact(list[i]).Name)

Your code would fail because:

You've placed the .Name inside the GetContact() function.
You've forgot the end ) for the if-statement

Note: You will be able to ignore contacts in StuffPlug 3, which will be released soon. It will let them send you messages and you won't notice it, it won't even be saved in the logs!

So if you can wait a little bit longer...

RE: Script Request - Ignore specific contacts by CookieRevised on 08-24-2006 at 06:06 PM

If you do stuff like

code:
for (i=0;i<list.length;i++)

with arrays, replace it with

code:
for (i in list)

no need for length checks i increments and what not (This works for objects too to cycle thru all their properties; it will not work for enumerations).

Second, instead of

code:
ChatWnd.SendMessage("/close")

Use the sendmessage api to close the window. This is better because you don't need to send a message to the conversation in that way (for various reasons you wont always be able to send a message to the conversation).

In the contact list:
Tools -> Options -> Alerts and Sounds -> Deselect 'Display alert when I message is recieved'

RE: Script Request - Ignore specific contacts by cloudhunter on 08-24-2006 at 10:12 PM

Yeah, but that will stop it for unignored contacts aswell...

Stuffplug 3 should be out soon though, which may have the feature... Check mess.be

I think he was talking about in scripting.

It will eventually be in SP3, as I love that feature myself too, but I haven't got round to coding it yet, so it won't be in the first release...
