Facebook protocol

[SpinalBlood]

The problem is still present sadly; no offline messages at all

it would appear that robyer has stopped working on all things miranda so not sure how / when any of the facebook issues will be fixed :-(

Go figure, once again the plugin has started randomly dropping messages,  .. the exact problem I had when I started this thread .. and now apparently there may no longer be any support ... shame. I dislike the facebook website, but unfortunately most of the people I know prefer to chat there and this plugin is/was the only decent way to do that.

Here's to hoping robyer comes back.

[SpinalBlood]

On my side it doesn't seem that, at least when online, messages are dropped. But it happened in the past when it occurred with some accounts while other ones were apparently fine...

I really hope someone picks up where Robyer left!
Especially the missing offline messages are annoying.
I also dislike the FB web page, and much prefer Miranda.
Happy New Year everybody!

I don't know why, but today suddenly offline messages are working again.
I was able to "load history" for a few contacts where I had lost important pieces of history (they were on FB, but never appeared in Miranda). Great, thanks whoever you are!!

Yes, it's thanks to this commit https://github.com/miranda-ng/miranda-ng/commit/03d22907643a74684e690b8bc73580c1fcd591fd and then a few others after it. Not sure if the person has an account on the forums, but their github account is https://github.com/zemiacsik

Looks great

I think there might still be problems. I didn't receive an offline link. We'll see if that happens again or if it was just by chance...

[riki]

I think I haven't lost an offline message since the fix (is that Ghazan? THANK YOU!).
I think you know, but reopening the message window should reload the last n messages (n configurable in the options).
Worst case fix: download history, will download all the chat history for that user.
You will end up with lots of duplicate msgs, but a database check will fix that.

Which link was it?
No links to media files or similar data ever appear in Miranda anymore.
The standard message is User sent an unsupported attachment. Open your browser to see it.

i get plentu of links to custom smileys. my main grief is the (apparently known windows 10 creator related one) to do with certain types of icon. couldn't a workround be put in to insert a space or something to force the character to display?

hi, every time i turn on miranda, 3 notification of unread messages from my fb friends are shown in tray even though the messages were read long time ago. i already experienced this issue some time ago, but forgot solution to this and could not find any in forums either.

1. Make sure you have dbchecker plugin.
2. Start miranda from command line (or create DBChecker.bat file including line and run):

Code: [Select]

start /B Miranda64.exe /svc:dbchecker3. On third step you have option to set all messages as read already.

Thanks a lot,
just a few notes:

• it's actually fourth step
• on the third you must not check "Check consistency only", otherwise you won't see the fourth step

hello, any chance to get a proper group conversation name into miranda contact instead of '(Unknown Contact)' (see attached screenshot)?
