Where to set the skype name or user ?

Look in your Skype Contact admin settings or the screenshot within the posting above yours

wheeloftime · November 19, 2006

Thanks for replay

This is how my admin settings look like:

I don't know what could be wrong there.

Didn't see your reply until now :-(

Anyhow, that admin shot looks okay to me and normally works without problem. Must be something with your environment when it does not for you. I can't tell anything specific without knowing your environment and/or be able to investigate it on your webspace. You solved it by hardcoding some stuff which is maybe not optimal but sufficient I guess.

Hi, 

I installed the contrib, and first of all thank you for the contrib.

Instead of placing the box in the left or right colum I would like to insert it into my contact_us.php, could you help me out in the way I have to this.
Denice

Denice,

To place it in your contact_us.php you can simply use the code from the (catalog)/includes/boxes/skype_contact.php inside your (catalog)/contact_us.php
Ie. if you look for this
[code]
  <tr>
	<td><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
	  <tr>
		<td class="pageHeading"><?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?></td>
		<td class="pageHeading" align="right"><?php // echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'table_background_contact_us.gif', HEADING_TITLE, HEADING_IMAGE_WIDTH, HEADING_IMAGE_HEIGHT); ?></td>
	  </tr>
	</table></td>
  </tr>

and place

<tr>
<td>

<!--
Skype 'Call me!' button
http://www.skype.com/go/skypebuttons
-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://download.skype.com/share/skypebuttons/js/skypeCheck.js">
</script>
<?php

if ((INFOBOX_SKYPE_SHOW_HEADER == 'true') && (SKYPE_SHOW_CALL == 'true' || SKYPE_SHOW_CHAT == 'true')) {
  $info_box_contents = array();
  $info_box_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_HEADING_SKYPE);

  new SkypeBoxHeading($info_box_contents, false, false);
}

if (SKYPE_SHOW_CALL == 'true') {
	$skype_call_string = '<div align="center"><a href="skype:' . SKYPE_ID_NAME . '?call" onclick="return skypeCheck();"><img src="' . SKYPE_BUTTON_LINK . '" style="border: none;" alt="Call me!" /><br>' . TEXT_SKYPE_CALL . '</a></div>';
}

if (SKYPE_SHOW_CHAT == 'true') {
	$skype_chat_string = '<div align="center"><a href="skype:' . SKYPE_ID_NAME . '?chat" onclick="return skypeCheck();"><img src="' . SKYPE_BUTTON_LINK . '" style="border: none;" alt="Chat with me!" /><br>' . TEXT_SKYPE_CHAT . '</a></div>';
}

if (SKYPE_SHOW_CALL == 'true' || SKYPE_SHOW_CHAT == 'true') {
	$info_box_contents = array();
	$info_box_contents[] = array('text' => $skype_call_string . '<br>' . $skype_chat_string);

	new SkypeBox($info_box_contents);
}
?>
</td>
</tr>

directly after that and you will have a full width skype contact box. You can manipulate the position/size etc. through HTML and CSS as you like.

And thanks for the tip to get this working with STS !

Howard

Don't work with skype 3.0, there is a patch?

Hi

Today i just found out the problem. It was because i had too many same entries in the database. Before I imported the sql file more than once. I deleted the queries and i imported the sql file again and it works now. Thanks for the great contribution.

boost44 · June 16, 2007

the Skype contribution seems to be working in all browsers except for Firefox. All other browsers go directly to skype and initiate the chat, but when clicking on the skype button through Firefox, it just opens a new window to a Skype download page. download.skype.com

Any ideas?

Thank you for this contribution, and thanks for your replies.

Hi fellows,

I follow the installation instructions and everything is working great, but in Configuration > Skype Contact I see two lines with it:

Configuration

...

Sessions

Skype Contact

The first links to www.mysite.com.br/admin/configuration.php?gID=16

The second links to www.mysite.com.br/admin/configuration.php?gID=17

I configure just the first and is working fine. How can I take off the second line in Admin > Configuration > Skype contact?

Thanks, :thumbsup:

idefix-69 · November 29, 2007

First of all - great contri. Works fine!

Only 2 things:

-with Firefox, there is coming a news warning that an external link will open. Any ideas to change this?

-Box position

I placed it left and now it´s the last box, but I want the box higher at an other position. But how???

I tried to managed it, in the shop admin under Box views/designs.

I placed the skype box there but when I do it so, I have 2 Skype boxes in my shop. One still at the end and the other at the position I manged under Box views.

So what to do???

Thanks for all ideas!!

Could someone please help

Installed showing in left colum but when I go into admin panel I cant see Skype to edit

I have tried all sorts

and reinstalled but with no joy

January 22, 2009

I have the sam problem as the one before me,

i have nothing in admin :(

Any ideas?

mglew · April 21, 2009

I think Firefox and IE treat the Skype button differently.

I've just raised a support call with Skype Support, and will post up anything useful that comes out of that.

IE works fine bringing up the chat or call session when you click the button, but Firefox just brings up the contacts window and sits there doing nothing.

I installed the contrib, but it will not show the status messages online/offline etc.

I set the privacy settings in skype as by the instructions.

Anyone can help me?

Hi, all is well installed and working fine but I would like to know if when calling me the call could go straight into a video call rather than a phone call.

Thanks
