Hey, all. There are a few things I found in the code that need to be worked on. I've done more testing on multi-database support, and there are some lines I've had to remove to ensure the plugins work when SMF is installed on a different database.
Also, there are a few hard-coded lines that need to be fixed. And I think at least one line that does not use language variables (it should). I'm also adding some code to dynamically pull the forum's absolute path so I can remove that dreadful hardcoded forum pathway that's there now.
So, I'm tweaking the codebase a bit to make things work better. Thanks again for your comments and catching stuff.
Regards,
Brat.

Okay, I think I've found most of the irritating buglets.
Enclosed please find the lastest version of the plugins. I've revised this to work better with the "official" bridge (which supports SMF running on a separate db). I've also replaced the hard-coded "forum" link (for pulling in SMF's Settings.php file) with a dynamic routine that will hopefully work for everyone.
And various minor tweaks.
Please let me know if you have any trouble with these plugins. Thanks!
Regards,
Brat.
Update: Users have found other little things that have been addressed. Updated zip package to follow...

I've made additional fixes to the code. This addresses the issue with the PROFILE link (some people are seeing the Modify link who shouldn't), a few remaining hard-coded language bits, and minor changes so people can see that the avatar has updated (made the update statement much larger and in bright red so you can't miss it). And, a few other tweaks.
Hopefully, this package will be stable for a good bit. Let me know if you have any problems. Thanks!
Regards,
Brat.

I'm getting formatting errors....and as my template is fairly CSS and XHTML compliant, errors like this often point to a stray tag in modules or components if that is any help?
Take a look...
http://www.nzmac.com/profile/task,userProfile/user,2/
Issues
1. The title tage of my profile now ends in "Latest posts of"...whereas this area isn't only about posts...can it not take over the title tag like that?
2. Forum posts - in FF is looks OK..in Safari I get the top advertising banner and all left menus being oulled inot this area?
3. Forum profile..blank in FF...blank and black in Safari
Cheers,
Phil

I don't have Safari at all, so I haven't tested for this case.
I'm willing to bet this is an HTML/CSS issue, as Safari has its own quirks. Regarding FF, my FF on Windows looks fine, so this may be a Mac problem (not sure, though). Also, this could be part of the following:
I found a couple of logic errors as well - namely, the plugins only check for the "official" bridge, but not for the Joomlahacks one. This involves the code that handles the SMF path. I'm now rewriting that routine to test for both cases. It's going to take me a minute or two to get this ironed out.
I'm still stressed somewhat, so I'm mentally not as sharp as I should be. 
In any case, I'll try to get my hands on a Safari emulator for Windows. That will really help me figure out what's going on layout-wise for that browser.
It's always the little things that go wonky. In any case, I'll try to have all this sorted out before the weekend is over.
Regards,
Brat.

Thanks...really appreciate all you are doing. I've just reverted back to a former version in the meantime to resolve the display issue.
I'm using Orstio's bridge if that is of any use to you.
Phil
