Pidgin Portable 1.2.0.4 Unofficial

Submitted by Jafet on June 20, 2007 - 6:48am

I decided to learn NSIS scripting for the first time today. It wasn't too bad. So I created yet another PidginPortable moonshine...

While I did most of the modifications myself, some elements are from dcaravana's PidginPortable. I decided to be fairly complete in replacing mentions of Gaim with Pidgin. This took a fair few hours...

PortablePidgin (*UNOFFICIAL*)

From the site:

I am a curious programmer, and was all the way wondering on how apps on PortableApps were made. Since Pidgin, the replacement for Gaim was released I was waiting for a while for Portable Apps but I guess they must be busy with the number off apps they have to handle.

So I went and analyze the Gaim Portable sources, read some info on Pidgin official site, downloaded NSIS and I managed to make it work! I was planning just to use it personally but as always I feel like sharing it.

Pidgin: GAIM will not find any plugins

Submitted by PhreakOnALeash on June 4, 2007 - 3:13am

Hi,
I've set up the latest version of GAIMPortable and I cannot get it to recognize any plugins. I have dl'd the guifications.org plugin package and CurrentTrack (http://sourceforge.net/projects/currenttrack) followed the install directions (i copied them to /App/gaim/plugins in this case) and restarted GAIMPortable. I went to the plugins setup window, and found that GAIM had not found any of the plugins i had installed.
Am I doing something wrong?

Error, Can't parse 'Filezilla.xml', the file may be corrupt. For this session, the registry will be used to store the settings.

When starting Filezilla portable I get the message
Error, Can't parse 'Filezilla.xml', the file may be corrupt.
For this session, the registry will be used to store the settings.

I have tried exporting my settings (Filezilla offers a f filename of Filezilla settings.xml), but even if I change it to just Filezilla.xml, whether I put it in the PortableApps\Filezilla directory (as suggested by the help file), or in PortableApps\Filezilla\Data\Settings, I still get the same error.

My questions are:

Pidgin: Empty Buddy List

Submitted by LittleUnkn0wn on June 1, 2007 - 2:52pm

I use Gaim Portable to access my AIM account. Suddenly, today the buddy list was empty when I logged in. I logged in using AIM Express, and all of my buddies were there, so they were not deleted. I tried re-installing, but that did not work.
I am running Windows 2000 Pro
Any ideas?
