Title: IEView Facebook template
Post by: Lizard on 25 08 2016, 14:22:51: Hello,

I downloaded the IEView template for Facebook, but it doesn't show somehow, do I have to use External CSS or Template? Or in other words, do I have to use the .ivs file or the .css file?

thx in advance

(But I haven't looked at that template at the moment, so it's my guessing)

Either you are missing some files your template needs, or you set it on wrong place. Also keep in mind that IEView doesn't work for group chats (as far as I know).

Try to download one of these templates, http://miranda-ng.org/distr/addons/IeView%20Themes/ , unpack it somewhere (keep all the files) and in IEView settings set path to the *.ivt template file.

That depends entirely on your template. You can alter it to do what you want (e.g. show pics immediatelly).

Yes, but it won't be that easy.

1) Find image url of animated sticker by the sticker ID (need to do some facebook request )
2) Animated sticker is just PNG with frame next to frame in single image. So you would need to write some JS+CSS code to animate it yourself.
