Hi
Just a heads up
Since I saw many asking questions about user contact between users here, and recently I did some good finding to replace the uddeIM integration, in somehow manner
Easy Profile - DJ-Messages Profile Button plugin
A plugin that displays a button linking to composing new messages on Easy Profile pages. The plugin needs to be enabled. There is no extra configuration needed.
First, we can use the Joomla default User - Contact Creator plugin, just enabled it and put this code on the Automatic Webpages field
http://index.php/component/djmessages/message?send_to=[userid]
The new registered user now will have the small contact icon button on their profile, it will lead to a small contact form and a link
You may use the default contact form without the DJ-Messages installed, but if you want a better inbox/outbox feature like DJ-Messages, you need your visitor to click on the link instead using the form
So, we need to hide the default contact form with some small CSS trick, like below, if you can't find any better
contact-form {display: none}
It works well for me, and hopefully for you to
I wish we can have a small plugin that will shows a small contact button on the profile and directly trigger the DJ Messages form, instead of this lengthy steps process.. hope to see this in the near future release
