Hello everyone im trying to make a custom page from where i can display a chat room inside vbulletin template system. So far i am unable to get it to work maybe someone can offer a suggestion.
I Made a plug in here is the code:
ob_start();
require(DIR . '/chat/index.php');
$chatroom = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
Next i created a php file to display the new custom vbulletin page i made and named it chat.php. Here is the code:
<?php
// ######################## SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
// ##################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
// change the line below to the actual filename without ".php" extention.
// the reason for using actual filename without extention as a value of this constant is to ensure uniqueness of the value throughout every PHP file of any given vBulletin installation.
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'chat');
// #################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array();
// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array();
// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array(
// change the lines below to the list of actual templates used in the script
'chat_chatroom',
);
// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array();
// ########################## REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');
// #################### HARD CODE JAVASCRIPT PATHS ########################
$headinclude = str_replace('clientscript', $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/clientscript', $headinclude);
// ################################################## ######################
// ######################### START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// ################################################## ######################
$navbits = array();
// change the line below to contain whatever you want to show in the navbar (title of your custom page)
$navbits[$parent] = 'Chatroom';
$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
// change the line below to contain the name of the actual main output template used in your script
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('chat_chatroom') . '");');
?>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://toxicgamerz.net/vb/chat/index.php"></script>
Then i created a new custom template named chat_chatroom. Here is the code:
$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
$headinclude
<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>
</head>
<body>
$header
$navbar
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%"
align="center">
<tr>
<td class="tcat">Chatroom</td>
</tr>
<tr>
$GLOBALS[chatroom]
</tr>
</table>
$footer
</body>
</html>
Now for the problems i am having. I think i have somethign wrong in the code but i am not sure.
When i set the plugin to start on global_complete i get the error
Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/choas0/public_html/vb/global.php on line 242
when i set the plugin to start on global_start i get the error

Yea im lost at this point if someone could suggest anything for me to try or has any idea why all help would be appreciated.
