Hi,

I use the broadcaster script all the time. It is not working in Adium 1.2. I send a message and I hear the sound that the message is sent, but nothing has gone out. Not even in the main box that it was typed in.

Any help would be appreciated.

Scott

p.s. It would be great also if the ability to broadcast was built into Adium!

Adium 1.2 completely changed the way AppleScript works in Adium. So just about every script that utilizes a feature in Adium will need to be rewritten. You will need to contact the author of the script. In lieu of the author no longer maintaining the script you can do the following:
  • * In finder navigate to ~/Library/Application Support/Adium 2.0/Scripts
    * Select the Broadcaster AdiumScript Bundle and control-click (or right-click) it and select "Show Package Contents"
    * In the new finder window navigate to Contents/Resources
    * Open the broadcast.scpt file in Script Editor and replace it's contents with:

    Code: Select all

    on substitute(theMessage)
    	tell application "Adium"
    		repeat with theChat in (every chat)
    			send theChat message theMessage
    		end repeat
    	end tell
    end substitute
    
    * Save the script and restart Adium.

Sorry for the double post but I just realized that this script was submitted by evands. So I'd be surprised if this script isn't updated eventually. I wonder if the Adium folks would like some help updating scripts like this...
