Online time plugin by Xenoxsis on 08-01-2004 at 09:37 PM

How about a plugin that tells when your contacts was online last (If they are offline). And if they are online it tells you for how long they've been on? Could be great. ;)

To tell when they were last online, youcan right click their name in your list, go to Messenger Plus! Extras and click contact information. :)

Ahh...Thank you - Didn't know :)

Though this feature tells you the last time they were on and such, it doesnt tell you how long they've been online before you came online like what aim does.

true, but that's because the MSN protocol wont allow you to know that...
(workaround would be that you have another email which constantly is connected and monitors changes and which is also accepted on your contacts contactlist. But that would be pointless, as you can be online with your own email and plus! in that case...)

I just thought about, does that function know if the contacts are online while you are offline?

No; there is no way to tell.

Yeah, in that case, sure. But normally, there is no way to tell if your contact is online if you're not :)

Could be cool if MSN implemented that in the program :P

A while ago I toyed with the idea of setting up a server that had Plus! and loads of people could register with their MSN details and it would login when they were offline (obviously it'd have polygamy) and post the information automatically on an SQL database that the user could access via a website with login information. In theory it could be done, but I don't really want to have the legal responsibility of having all those login details, nor do I know how to upload all the data from Plus! into an SQL database...
