in mazilla, it will keep logging me and and unloading over and over again, but it does not do that in IE

To adjust your window, change the setting in the code you added to the navbar template

Or to what ever you like. :nervous:

I also added :ermm:

Hi!

I read your specs about new features in 2.0. Is there any way to have a set of smilies selected instead of the random picker?

Thanks for a great hack in any case!
-Mika

is there a demo to see it in action?

A demo can be found on my forum: http://gzevolution.net/forums (you have to register though .. no i'm not advertising o_o)
But if you can't be bothered to register, i have posted 9 previews of the system in my main post which you can look at :)

The exit link was removed, since the clicking of x was put in, but you can still use the /exit command :)

The pop up window checks to see if the window was closed, if your using Internet Explorer, you have to wait a second or 2 for it to close, if your using Mozilla, it should close practicly instantly, one of the few js codes that works better for Mozilla than it does Internet Explorer .. lol

I'll release a minor update to fix that smile problem and make sure that template is cached :)

Thanks for the feedback everyone, appreciated,

OK, some ... critic after spending the entire morning to install 2.0 and bring it up to my specs:

1. The exit method (clicking on the window's X button, top right corner) still does not erase the user from the list. I think you can fix that, by deleting the session record, something like :

in the exit command.


2. If I am not mistaken, when someone views the help screen, the navigation bits are wrong, it thinks it is somewhere else, but I've changed it in my files and I do not remember where it was pointing to.

3. A couple of problems were faced by people with Internet Explorer, but not with Firefox or Netscape.

The first problem is that some times, the message they were trying to post, got erased, as the refresh occured in the background. That's what they told me, I haven't seen it happening.

The second problem, which I saw it myself, was that as they typed things, the program was taking each word they were typing and posted whatever was typed until then, as a new message, as if the user was pressing Enter (or the Post button), after every word they typed. This happened twice with two different users using IE. I am not sure if it happened because at the same time, I was doing some mods, or if it is a problem, I'll keep you updated on that.

1. Well since vBulletin itself will just re-create this session, i don't see any harm in deleting the session row, i'll add that into v2.1 :)

2. The navigation row is a global template, it's the same on all page's for me, possibly an error on your part perhaps? If not keep me updated.

3. Hmm, *keeps typing in vbchat untill hidden frames reload* .. message is still there. I'll look into it more, as you press submit JS triggers the iframe to clear the message field when it reloads, if that is the problem, i'll fix it or seek alternative methods.

Thanks for the information :)

- Zero Tolerance

Thx for the update :)

[high]* The-Aeon installed[/high]

it works very good :) :)

2. No, what I mean is that when you set the navbits in the part of the program that shows the help, you have copied that part from above (I think it is the Choose a room one) and you have changed it to say "Viewing vBChat Help" or something.

Could I PM you on an issue I have on my exit routine (log out)?

Tnx

Feel free sv1cec, anything i can do to help :)

But first .. *releases v2.1*

- Zero Tolerance

Updated, thnx!

How do u make the popup window not so BIG. I put width=800 and height=600 but some frames still have scrollbars and look messed up, cant u make dynamic widths and heights based on %

The v2.2 release will fix the window size to the users full screen height and width, being dynamic depending on users resolution too :)

- Zero Tolerance

Sweet! I like to hear updates ;)

and the forumhome popup template do please

Upgrade 2.0 to 2.1 went fine, only thing is in the admin cp it still shows up as version 2.0. I did upload all the new files.

Refreshed, even closed browser, still says old version.

Yeah the ACP file wasn't changed, so don't worry about it :)

- Zero Tolerance

Ok, thanks again ZT.

Much appreciated, ZT. :)

One more small issue (maybe not an issue to others), when clicking on a smiley, then pressing enter, it adds the same smiley instead of submitting the message. Insteresting...

Thats because you have selected the emoticon, you need to select the message field or press the post submit button. Not an issue, just the way most browsers work :)

- Zero Tolerance

Ahh...very cool. Thanks.

Nuthin on the fixed smilies?:( I mean the fixed set instead of random ones.

-M

Well i was concentrating more on fixing the minor problems before including a few extra features, i'll keep that idea in my mind though. Sorry for the wait.

- Zero Tolerance

Great. Thank you:)

-Mika

wow, this is bigger release then i would ever have expected in such short time :)
(1.1.1=> 2.0)
now i have to get to work (upgrading) again> :P

[high]* Crapaddict makes a bow _o_
[/high]

nice(ly) (d)one, ZT

nice work ZT, i really like it alot ;)

some people reported problems, when they type a sentence, sometimes (not always) the first word or two gets "lost", it doesn't show up in the chat
i myself haven't been able to replicate such thing

i didn't change anything in the script that i think could lead to such problem
only thing i did was making the LIMIT 15 in they mysql query into LIMIT 30 (just want to shows some more lines hehe)

v2.1 was released today and fixed that bug where sometimes it cut off what you were typing, or are you already using that version?

- Zero Tolerance

Upgraded the code to include the fix for this problem (typed message getting erased) and it didn't happened to any of my IE users again. Admitedly, not too much time testing it, but this morning, when I had v. 2.0 installed, it happened with two of my users.

Why are people still using IE, I do not know.

Well thats good to hear, if the bug is completely abolished :)

And hey, i still use Internet Explorer, personally i find nothing wrong with it, i get no problems, or crap on my PC either .. each to there own i guess. :p

- Zero Tolerance

yup, using 2.1
i saw it happen, well the person said he typed something like "it was better bla bla ble"
and the "it was" didn't show up

Don't get offended Zero, all other browsers I tried didn't have that problem (Firefox and Netscape). And coming from Netscape (since version 1.0) you can understand my standing!!

LoL I just revealed my age to you yourngsters!

@ Speedy131 - I'll look into the problem more, once fixed i'll release an update, bundled with a few other fixes :)

@ sv1cec - Heh, yeah. So far the only browser which doesn't function with vBChat is Safari for the Mac, however un-important at this time, i have covered compatability for IE & Firefox, the 2 most used browsers, which is catering for the majority :)
Plus i'm only 17, not that young is it? o_o

- Zero Tolerance

LoL

That's news to me, i always thought you were younger than that, a lot younger. I guess assumptions are what make us so damned stupid :p

- Zero Tolerance

Does anyone else have this issue? Some of my users say they do not see the Chat option on my nav header menu and others like me see it fine.

Could this be a java issue with their browsers?

Nope, I am actually so old to remember the "cookie, cookie, give me a cookie" virus.

LoL

Make sure you have done all template edits on "all" skins if you have multiple, and if it's a pain copying templates to another style, look at my profile here on vbulletin.org, i have made a modification a while back which will copy templates for you :)

@ sv1cec - Wow, that's cool, it would of been so fun to see that virus in action!

- Zero Tolerance

It was just filling up your screen with the phrase "Cookie, cookie, give me a cookie" and a pacman-style of face going around eating the letters (if memory serves me right).

Harmless, compared with the contemporary things.

I have done all template edits, but it seems that the chat only shows up in the default style. in all other styles i just get a blank page.
I have changed the default style, and ran the installscript up untill the database modification again for all styles, but to no avail.... :ermm:
looks as if the chat won't work in any other style than in the default style for my board... what could be wrong?
