15:53:45 <DJRedAlert252> how do i add extensions to Pidgin Portable? i got some thrd party ones but im not sure where they go. on their website it only explains how to do it for the regular version not a portable one
15:57:19 <Gizmokid2005> DJRedAlert252: it's actually very easy, give me a moment, I believe we have an FAQ that covers that.
15:57:57 <Gizmokid2005> Hmm, it looks like we do not.
15:57:58 <Gizmokid2005> IN any case
15:58:25 <Gizmokid2005> just drop them in this folder while Pidgin is closed and when you launch it again they should show up
15:58:25 <Gizmokid2005> PidginPortable\Data\settings\.purple\plugins
15:59:06 <DJRedAlert252> theres not a plugins folder in that location if i make one will it still work?
15:59:55 <DJRedAlert252> the folders in that exact location are certificates, icons, logs, and smileys. there are also a few files but i dont think those are important for what i need help with
15:59:57 <Gizmokid2005> Yes it will.
16:00:57 <DJRedAlert252> the extension i got was a plugin that will make it work with omegle so youre saying that if i create the plugins folder and put the dll in it then itll work just fine?
16:02:04 <DJRedAlert252> and also will i have to restart pidgin for the changes to take effect?

16:15:05 <Gizmokid2005> You want to create the folder and put the dll in while pidgin is not running
16:15:10 <Gizmokid2005> once you do and restart pidgin it should work, yes.
16:16:10 *** AluisioASG has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds)

16:50:38 <DJRedAlert252> i added the extension to the folder i was told by Gizmokid2005 to create and restarted PidginPortable but when i looked for the extension i added i couldnt find it
16:54:45 <Gizmokid2005> DJRedAlert252: if you're adding a protocol, more often than not you have to add more than just a DLL
16:54:50 <Gizmokid2005> and if it's a protocol, it won't show up as a plugin
16:54:59 <Gizmokid2005> it'll show up as a protocol when you go to add accounts
16:55:12 <DJRedAlert252> yeah im looking in there but its not showing up in there
16:55:19 <DJRedAlert252> the protocols
16:55:24 <Gizmokid2005> but if it's a protocol and you only dropped in the dll, it might now
16:55:26 <Gizmokid2005> *not*
16:56:04 <DJRedAlert252> is there a protocol folder where i put the dlls for them?
16:56:13 <DJRedAlert252> or do they go in the plugins folder and show up in protocols?
16:56:23 <Gizmokid2005> They go in the plugins folder and will show up in protocols
16:56:29 <Gizmokid2005> what one are you trying to add?
16:57:46 <DJRedAlert252> its from a third party plugin site and its the one for omegle
16:58:03 <DJRedAlert252> hold on ill get you a link for the site and the one for the omegle extension
16:58:19 <DJRedAlert252> https://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/ThirdPartyPlugins
16:58:22 <DJRedAlert252> thats the site
16:58:27 <Gizmokid2005> DJRedAlert252: did you get the libjson-glib.dll as well
16:58:32 <DJRedAlert252> and heres the page for the one i was trying to use
16:58:32 <Gizmokid2005> as their page shows? http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-omegle/
16:58:51 <DJRedAlert252> https://code.google.com/p/pidgin-omegle/
16:58:59 <DJRedAlert252> yes thats the page i got the dll from
16:59:12 <Gizmokid2005> did you get that other dll as well?
16:59:17 <Gizmokid2005> the libjson-glib.dll?
17:00:05 <DJRedAlert252> the one that they say comes with the facebook one? yes i downloaded that one too just in case i didnt already have it better safe than sorry
17:02:22 <Gizmokid2005> the omegle plugin might actually be broken
17:02:28 <Gizmokid2005> I just installed it and it doesn't seem to work, but hang on
17:02:51 <DJRedAlert252> ok im gonna have to be getting off soon actually so email me sicnessrusso95@gmail.com
17:03:00 <Gizmokid2005> give me just a second
17:03:12 <Gizmokid2005> Yup, the plugin seems to not work
17:03:20 <Gizmokid2005> even adding it the way it should be to a local installation doesn't work
17:03:37 <DJRedAlert252> ok just a broken dll
17:03:44 <Gizmokid2005> looks that way
17:04:26 <DJRedAlert252> but the guy that uploaded it said it works for him and its a couple years old so im sure someone would have said something by now about it not working maybe its just not compatible with newer versions of pidgin
17:04:36 <Gizmokid2005> that's likely what it is
17:04:42 <Gizmokid2005> most people don't update their pidgin installation very often
17:05:35 <DJRedAlert252> im using the PA.c platform so all my apps get updated when theres an update to install and on my pc i have cnet techtracker so my pc programs stay updated
17:06:04 <DJRedAlert252> i try to keep everything updated to avoid problems but in some cases it can cause problems
17:06:34 <DJRedAlert252> maybe i should download an older version of pidgin and install it locally on my pc and try out the dll and see if it works with the older one that might be the problem
17:06:46 <Gizmokid2005> it might be worth a shot
17:09:38 <DJRedAlert252> i dont have time to find an old version. could you try it out and email me the results? i gave you my email earlier but if you need me to say it again thats fine
17:11:50 <DJRedAlert252> im running out of time im just gonna give you my email again sicnessrusso95@gmail.com thanks for the help
