Neowin in Trillian News Checker Plugin??


Question

Another trillian pro question...does Neowin use RSS for news? I want to be able to put Neowin in the Trillian news checker plugin thingy...if not maybe the mods could add support when they have some free time?

Firstly, you will need the News Checker plugin, available at:

http://ceruleanstudios.com/plugins/pl_down...load.php?plID=7

After that, you will need to go install that file. Then, go to the Plugins page under Preferences. Click Add, and open rss.dll. A new subsection under Plugins called "News" should come up. Click on that, and click on "Add Custom Feed." Fill in the blanks as follows:

Name: {Any name will do}

Server: neowin.net

Location: (Put in any of the following:)

Main News: backend.php?page=main

Software News: backend.php?page=software

Gamers' News: backend.php?page=gamers

Forums: backend.php?page=forum

Ya what they said ^^^ :)

Also Michael, do you know how to add an msn type pop up alert? For example, one of my buddys on aim message me and then instead of an IM window popping up, I get an alert saying what that buddy says?

Or is it easy to make a plugin to do this for me?

I'm afraid that you can't do that. However, you can have it flash the systray icon when someone sends you a message. To do so, go to Prefs, Windows, Initial. Under "On creation of a chat window," select the 2nd option.

Umm, I have no idea how to do that. Sorry

I've been trying to make a pop up thing to tell me when someone connects, but I can't figure out how to put the username in it. I can only do like: "User has signed on." not the real name. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks.

Right click the name you want the alert for, click set alerts, then set the settings...for example if you want an alert to show when that buddy comes online, click the comes online box and then the a systry based popup alert box.

Ok, that's what I want to do :> But, is there any way to do that for all users and not have to click on each one? :>
