Messenger Plus suggestion for next version... by chance on 02-17-2006 at 02:14 PM
hey, perhaps in the next version...
could make it so that you can set for everyone on ur contact list to show a popup when they change any status instead of manually doing it (Right click name > Messenger Plus! Extras > Notifications...) takes too long 
oh and using your own sounds would be nice too for each status change. everytime someone goes away/busy i hear the same sound

You can use Pheonix by RaceProUk
RE: Messenger Plus request for next version... by linx05 on 02-17-2006 at 02:18 PM
You could try Phoenix 2. It has those features. It is a plugin for Plus!.
It's a very useful plugin!

aww, it uses it's own popup toast... i like the msg plus popup. plus it shows the nick not the email. i'm just too damn picky eh

Yes... Pheonix is a very good Plug-in! It's a good way to get the most outta your Messenger...
By the way... for the future... Try using the edit button.

Maybe RaceProUK will do something about it? He is currently writing the next version (which I think it is going to be REALLY good). Suggest it or he might read this thread.

The toasts display names when Custom Names are turned off, and e-mail addresses when they are turned on. However, if it's desirable, I can change it to allow the user to pick which to use (would make the code simpler too).
I may also add the Plus!-style toast skin to the plugin for those that want it (with Patchou's permission of course).

Yes, but he will notice the thread more if you change the title to have [sug] in it

I've always had phoenix but never actually used it . I always wanted the feature to display a toast for everyone at change status but didn't realise your plugin had it! (d'oh - my bad)
Anyway, I just activated the plugin and - sorry if it's been suggested before - is it not possible to display the actual renamed contact name instead of the email? Also, it would be great if you were allowed to use the plus style popups because - although yours are very nice - they don't really fit in with the msn style of things. (Incidentally, do you actually need permission because Stuffplug has similar popups that they made themselves?)

that sounds great. like kierant said, it would be nice if the toast (dunno why it's called toast, someone care to explain?) was just like the msn toast... i guess we're just used to it like that. maybe custom sounds would be nice too so not all popups have the same sound.
also, i have enable custom contact names unticked... but it still shows emails in the toast... any ideas?

i just noticed phoenix doesn't show people going offline. perhaps that could be included in the next version? just a thought.
RE: Messenger Plus suggestion for next version... by linx05 on 02-22-2006 at 08:33 AM
This can be done already in Plus!.
Preferences > Notifications > Popup Defaults.
