O.P. RE: [Release] Facebook Status as PSM v1.22
But my point is that without the second word, the status might not make sense, for example, my current status:

"Danny loves Scarlett Johansson"

Remove the first two words and the status simply becomes "Scarlett Johansson"....which makes no sense.

If the second word was still "is" then it would be possible to remove it as the possibilities were more limited.

So yeah, that's not happening :P

I'm looking into an 'update now' and a 'reset' button and they should hopefully be added for the next version

If I'm not too bored, I might go through your code, if you don't mind me editing it a bit if I need to :) I'll let you know if I feel there is something a bit out of order :)


The settings get saved to the registry.  Being logged into facebook is irrelevant as far as I know (because the link is independent of being logged in).  UAC has nothing to do with it......i'm building it on vista so would have noticed a similar thing.  If you look in the registry at the location mentioned earlier in this thread, is anything in there, or is the whole key totally blank?

Hahaha! Yeah! :D
So I was thinking something like a... in the settings for the Facebook Status script... where you type how often you'd like to update... another box where you type how many words/letters you want to remove.
But now, when I think about it... sometimes you want to remove the first word and sometimes you don't.
And then it's just as easy to simply remove the words by hand from the Messenger status line. :)
So I guess it's just useful if one always wanna remove certain words.

I've now got Update and Reset buttons working, they'll definitely be part of the forthcoming 1.30 release.

I'm still not entirely sure what to do about this whole shortening the status thing.

I might work on adding an option to just remove the name part of it

Just add it as an option for users who want it.
Let the options be something like "Ignore first n words" :)

Version 1.30 has been submitted to the database including:

A 'Reset' button which removes all of the options as well as resetting your PSM to a blank

An 'Update Now' button which updates your PSM instantly with whatever changes you've made, so that you don't have to wait for the timer to come around

An option remove a certain amount of letters from the front of the status (so that the name/second word can be removed if desired)

I'll update the first post once it's live in the database

Yes! Great work!!

I just noticed one thing... everytime I re-start Messenger, the Facebook status feed link is gone.
Why is that?

I kinda already did. I went ahead and checked the registry and it does have the keys.. its just Messenger didn't have them.

I rewrote some of your code and did some code maintenance (as I already told you) and it doesn't seem to happen to me any more. :)

Edit:
As a feature request, imo the "leave out <name> is" part should be included in the options with a few changes.
Add a text box and remove that string from the start of the PSM.

Like if I put "John is" in there, this would be the result
John is drooling on Jessica Alba -> Drooling on Jessica Alba
John likes Jessica Alba -> John likes Jessica Alba (no change)
John The world is a beautiful place -> John The world is a beautiful place

Now if I put "John" in that text box, here are the results
John is drooling on Jessica Alba -> Is drooling on Jessica Alba
John likes Jessica Alba -> Likes Jessica Alba (no change)
John The world is a beautiful place -> The world is a beautiful place

Note that the first is the most common Facebook status format. The second is another commonly used format. The third is used by some people but isn't that common. This option allows (optional) customizability as per your tastes :)
