How do I use the output of the 'Skype' contact textarea in my template?

[Vincent]

Hello mateys,

I'm wondering how I can use the output of the 'Skypename' that my users entered for something in my templates?

Darn, just 18 views

Guys, I really need it, sorry for spamming

Are you asking for ideas to use this with or specificly how to implement it.

If your talking random ideas... why not an add contact button?

I'm not sure if there's a easier way, but this is also working:

$userModel = $this->_getUserModel();
$identies = $userModel->getIdentities(XenForo_Visitor::getUserId());
$skypeName = $identies['skype'];

How do I use it IN templates? :S

In which one? I think you need to add the var to the viewparams of the already returned view....

In the forum_sidebar and in the message template.
