If you look at the plugins, you will see that there is php code that calls the Display_Chatters_Addon template. Now if you are manually editing yourself you will have to make sure you have the code attached to the correct hook and then paste the contents of the Display_Chatters_Addon template where you want it to appear in the appropriate template. If you go down that route, you will have to work it out for yourself, as I can not work it out for you.

How can I change the icon to the left of "who is in flashchat" at the bottom of main page?

I created a different icon from the whos_online.gif and named it whos_chatting.gif

I found the section in the "Display Chatters" template which read:

and changed the graphic text to whos_chatting.gif

but the old graphic remained in place

Any ideas?

You need to change it in the template Display_Chatters_Addon, the template you changed is part of the original Who is chatting (for FlashChat) hack by Paul M, and as most people would have turned off, when turning mine on, means that template is not used at all.

Also please click Mark as Installed.

I went into "Search Templates" did a search for chatters and only 2 templates showed up

Display_Chatters

and

Display_Chatters_Users

The Display Chatters template is the original one I edited and it did not change anything and the Display_Chatters_Users does not have the graphic in it.

If you do not have the Display_Chatters_Addon template, then you do not have this hack installed, you will need to ask over at Paul M's hack instead as it is his hack you are having the problem with, this is a add-on to that hack and I only support this one and he supports his.

I would like to add this hack to my CMPS page, has anyone done that yet?

I have been looking for the same thing. I found an older CMPS module but it didn't seem to work with 3.6.

No, I do not have a CMPS installed. What portal do you have installed? I may look at it an do a hack for it if I like the portal.

Crashes my board when it's turned on.

Where is the variable "$vbulletin->options['chatfolder']" defined in vBulletin's config. I have FlashChat installed and running just fine, and this variable doesn't seem to be defined.

Doh! Helps when you read the entire addon's documentation. ;)
