Cadillac Status Mod. - update you can search too - see bottom of post
 
I said this before and I will say it again, the status mod is a winner big time for anyone running a dating site. Member’s find the status mod familiar with features on sites like facebook and myspace and is why they love it.
 
There are two versions of the status mod. The more Trim Down version is what I had put on my site initially. Because it was so popular, I upgraded to the Cadillac version.
 
The Cadillac version has all the features of the Trim Down version but the Cadillac version has some extra features that will make your site even more cool.
 
NEW FEATURES:
 
1. Male, Female and Admin Icons to help identify the gender.
 
2. Admin can delete a status message from the home page. Boy did I need this. I had a few members who would put an inappropriate message that needed to be deleted immediately. For example, if you look at the image, a member added their email address to the status message. I can immediately delete it with a click of a mouse.
 
3. Admin can put a html link in his status message. This is a god send. If I want to put little reminders in the Admin status message, I can now put a link right in my status message for members to click to go to a vldP feature.
 
4. Mood icon added. This is just one of those things that keeps members coming back.
 
5. Good chance I overlooked something. I know Ramil always takes care of the coding for security when adding links or html to a mod.
 
If you own a website, add the status mod to your site. You won’t regret it. IM Ramil for pricing. Remember there are two versions (1) Trim Down and (2) Cadillac Version. Even though it is more expensive, the Cadillac version will make your site unique from your competitors and fun for your members.
 
Click for my Instructions for Installing Cadillac Status Mod (note: you need to purchase from Ramil to get the files for uploading to your site).
 
Thanks again, Ramil, for excellent work.
 
UPDATE:
 
This mod is even more amazing. I had a member ask me how could he search for other members with the same mood icon. For example, he wanted to search for other members whose mood icon was Musical hoping he could connect with other members who have some common interests.
 
It turns out, this mod makes searching by mood easy.
 
1. Go to your Settings - Custom Fields
 
2. Edit your group - Status and Mood - change to "Load in Simple Search"
 
3. Edit your field - My Mood - change to "Load in Simple Search"
 
Done. Now members can search for other members who have the same moods.

You can assign only paid members have rights to use statuses by wrapping related code with <!-- IF session.group_id != (free members group) -->
status codes go here
<!-- ENDIF -->
It's simpler than it looks here.

I had decided to add mood to search too. I reckon it will be fun, but again my site isn't even open yet.

I'm almost 99.9% sure you can, but to be 100% sure you can ask Ramil for this request when ordering the Status Mod.
