Example Facebook status:
LeoXavior is suggesting a new feature|option!

Example Msn status would become:
Suggesting a new feature|option!

I have looked into this and unfortunately I don't think it's possibe, certainly not easily.  If I had better coding knowledge then it might have been possible when the facebook status was automatically prefaced by 'is' as it might have been possible to remove the first two words....but with variable second words I don't think it would work.

I know all this is probably hard work and you won't know how to do half of the stuff, but feedback is better than no feedback. Hopefully this helps you out to improve the script, as it's thumbs up from me so far.

Bug #1
Sometimes it simply doesn't work. Unsure of the reason. Also doesn't update straight away after saving settings.

---

When it doesn't work it could be that the 'key' part of the Feed Link has changed, not much I can do about that really.  Also, it won't update straight away after saving settings, it will update after however long the timer is set to.

Saved the settings, then status eventually showed in psm. I later cleared my psm and then next time I went to use the script my settings had been cleared. (see Suggestion #2)

---

There's no reason why your settings should have been cleared, even if you do clear your psm.  Can you repeat this?  Next time it happens check the registry at HKCU>Software>Patchou>Messenger Plus! Live>GlobalSettings>Scripts>Facebook Status>Settings>e-mail address and see if the settings are still showing there (as that's where they get stored)

If possible, I'd like to see how long ago the status was submitted. Example:

Chris is watching TV. [3 hours ago]

Not sure if this is possible, I'll look into it

An ON/OFF button.

That definitely can't be done, if you don't want it to operate anymore, then to go the script preferences screen and untick the script (to deactivate it), it won't be uninstalled, simply turned off

Also found this in the Script Debugger, if it helps.

code:

Script is starting
Script is now loaded and ready
Function called: OnEvent_Initialize
Error: unknown (code: -2147418113)
       File: Facebook Status.js. Line: 12.
Function OnEvent_Initialize returned an error. Code: -2147352567

Hmm, obviously some of the settings from the registry have been deleted.

Disable the script, then go to that registry location above and delete the whole 'Facebook Status' key

Then re-enable the script and it should be okay again
