I've Uploaded the Module and Appears on the vBadvanced CMPS v3.0 RC2 Window, but Only Shows the "Loading" Message!! :( :confused:

Perhaps a Non Compatibility with vBulletin 3.6.7 PL1?? :confused:

Is there Any Option I Should Configure on the MGC ChatBox, for it to Work with This Hack on the vBadvanced CMPS v3.0 RC2 Window?? :confused:

[stangger5]

I see you renamed the cmp_index to portal..

Did you rename the: define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'adv_index'); inside your portal file ??

[beduino]

Don't work to me too :(
I use vbadvanced in root/index.php and vB in /forums/index.php
Only 'loading' appears ....

Try changing to Yes this option Display on defined pages in a variable That worked for me.

[inciarco]

Try changing to Yes this option Display on defined pages in a variable That worked for me.

I did that but Appeared three ChatBoxes, Two like the ones that Appear on the Forums, and One related with the CMPS, but all Three (3) Had the Loading Message on them!! :( :confused:

Besides, I only allow the ChatBox on the Forumhome, and on Threads and Threadlist, to save some Server Load!! ;)

My Best Regards!! ;)

No, I Didn't Rename that Code Line!! :confused:

What Should I Place in that Code Line, if I've chosen for my vBadvanced CMPS view, the file portal.php instead of index.php?? :confused:

I've chosen for the CMPS URL: portal.php (and is Working Fine in that aspect)!! ;)

Is there Any Global Variable that I Should Set in "Portal Output Global Variables", so that this Hack could Work?? :confused:

I appreciate your Help!! :up:

My Best Regards!! ;)

Ok. Maybe worked for me because I just had it on my forum home but I disabled to use it only on vBadvanced.

[stangger5]

Thanks Elmer,, forgot about that since I had mine set to Yes allready,, for having it working in the arcade...

If you get just Loading.....
Make sure you do step 1

[Kuimera]

It's a longshot but, can you make this for SubDreamer Plugin?

[inciarco]

Thanks Elmer,, forgot about that since I had mine set to Yes allready,, for having it working in the arcade...

Make sure you do step 1

I've set to Yes the Option "Display on defined pages in a variable" and the View of the ChatBox is Better, but I Keep Getting the "Loading" Message, and the Image of the AJAX Refresh is Showing at All Time!! :( :confused:

Is there any other Option I need to Set to Get the Messages?? :confused:

Anything I Can Check for it to Work?? I'm Using vBulletin 3.6.7 PL1!! :confused:

:)

Three chatboxes ??
How many times have you installed ??

Uninstall all of them and delete the mgcchatbox.php file..

Install it again...

When reinstalling,,it will ask if you want to overwrite the template,,,go ahead and overwrite it..
If the template didnt take right,,it wont work..Giving you the Loading...message...

Display on defined pages in a variable set to Yes..
and in the Other pages list,, put adv_index in that box...

Make sure you have all user group permissions set to see it..
The post count needs to be set to 0 and able to see box checked,,for guest..
If you want guest to see it..

:)

[stangger5]

If you still are get the message (Loading..)

Try option 3: the template edit in the first post...

GREAT!! Now the MGC ChatBox is Working, by using the Step 3!! :up:

One little Additional Bug!! On the CMPS Page, the ChatBox Displays with a Width Longer that the Width of the Page, (it Doesn't Adjusts to the Width of the Page), so the Right Column of the CMPS page doesn't Show!! :(

I've Tried Changing the Width of the Field "Width of the field input" and No Results The Width Still the Same!! :(

When Collapsing the ChatBox, the Page Returns to Normal, so must be something related with the Display of the Content, because when I Reload the Page with the Chatbox Extended, the First Second the ChatBox displays Ok, but after that Second the ChatBox Width gets too Long!! :(

You can see this with your User in my Forums!! ;)

I'll leave this Hack Active in my Forums for you to see this Bug!! ;) (This Bug happened also with the Previous Code of the "adv_portal_mgc_chatbox" Template!! :rolleyes:

My Best Regards and Great Work!! ;)

[inciarco]

I managed to Create a Top and a Bottom Columns in the CMPS Page of my Forums, and to Include in one of those Columns the MGC ChatBox, and Shows Fine!! :up:

I think the Problem with the MGC ChatBox Displaying with a widht Larger that the witdth of the Page, should be because of a <td width="100%"> in one of the Templates of the ChatBox, because that Forces the width of the ChatBox to be as Long as the widht of the Page, and with the Left and Right Columns of the CMPS activated, forces the Right Column to be Hidden on the Right of the Screen!! ;)

-Step 1-

In
Admin Control Panel -> vBa CMPS -> Default Settings -> Main Options -> Location List

I added

top
Top Column

and

bottom
Bottom Column

To be able to Use this Colums in the adv_portal Template.

-Step 2-

In the adv_portal Template:

(Adding Code to Create the Two Columns Top and Bottom, to Use them Before and After, the Left, Center, and Right, Columns)!! ;)

-2.1-

I Placed

<!-- Comienzo de C?digo Adicionado Para Top Column 2007_12_02 -->

<if condition="$show['top_column']">

<tr valign="top">

<td colspan="3">
$home[topblocks]
</td>

</tr>

</if>

<!-- Final de C?digo Adicionado Para Top Column 2007_12_02 -->

Before

<tr valign="top">
<if condition="$show['left_column']">

-2.2-

and

I Placed

<!-- Comienzo de C?digo Adicionado Para Bottom Column 2007_12_02 -->

<if condition="$show['bottom_column']">

<tr valign="top">

<td colspan="3">
$home[bottomblocks]
</td>

</tr>

</if>

<!-- Final de C?digo Adicionado Para Bottom Column 2007_12_02 -->

After

$home[rightblocks]
</td>
</if>
</tr>

-Step 3-

In
Admin Control Panel -> vBa CMPS -> Edit Pages -> (Your CMPS Index Page)

I Placed My CMPS ShoutBox in the Top or Bottom Column, where I Want to See It!! ;)

Of Course you can Display any other Control on those Top and Bottom Columns!! ;)

:)

I'm not having the loading problem. The problem I am having is that NOTHING is showing up inside of the module. The chatbox works fine if I am not using it inside of the CMPS, but when I have the module on nothing shows up inside the box.

Thoughts?

http://www.resurgencetheory.com/vbulletin/findex.php?

I have the shoutbox activated normally as of right now, the module is still up to show what is going on with it. As you can see, there is nothing displayed inside of it.

[skeetar]

Hey, I got it to work. However, my entire mission was to get a chatbox that I could modify to look attractive in a sidebar, but it just didn't look good at all. Thanks anyways!

[redwinger]

Ok followed this step by step and when adding the module through the upload module. I get a database error. The module is in the module folder when I check the server but I can't get to the other steps. I have tried manual adding the module and also manual adding a template and using the step 3 code but I still get the loading in the chatbox. When I go to type in it and hit enter to post a message it redirects me to another chatbox page.

[rainyleaves]

Thanks for this MOD.

I got problem with VB3.7.0 Beta3.(No problem with VB3.6.8)
Text not loading.
Just display 'loading'.

How can I fix?

Thanks.

[weedheaven]

I got a problem in the module:

when i click in the module on the help >>> ? <<< Icon i end up here

http://www.weedheaven.com/forum/Array/mgc_chatbox.php?do=showaide

object not found

[poprulz]

Its working either way, using the default adv_mgc template as well as the 3rd custom template option.

But I am getting a starnge display problem. please check the attachment. I have got mgc_chatbox renamed in its general settings and the module named as chat and in the homepage both these appear.

To edit the >> Chat in the top left...

admincp >> vBa CMPS >> Edit Modules
Scroll down the title column untill you find Chat..
Click Chat or go..
You can change the Module Title there..

[Dinatius]

I have it installed at my site, regular box works fine - the vBa part doesn't work :( I get a perpetual "Loading..." Also, the buttons on the chat box don't work... Chat room change buttons, the inner frame-collapse button... they take me to /index.php#chatbox but don't change anything.

I've done both parts 1) and 3) of the instructions... also double-checked that I didn't change THIS_SCRIPT at all, even though the file is renamed to index. My guess is something to do with cb_location? Or other part of chatbox_refresh?

Edit: When I do suggestion 3 from above, the content disappears - just a nice empty module frame.

I`m be starting a new verion soon..

[sburgoon]

How would i create the entries into the vb database for mysql by hand? Which tables must I create? When I try to add this to my vba cmps, it fails. I'd like to be able to do this by hand. I'm to the point where it says "loading" still on the top. I've done your step #3 with no avail. Any other suggestions? I'm capable of anything.
