Hi Paul

This is a fantastic Mod, I am glad you got it ported to VB4 so soon.

I have a question, in the Parse_Templates portion of your mod I would lke ot modify this to not just open a new tab, but to actually open a new pop up window 600x400

How would I do this?

I see in the mod you have Thats fine, I have the settings to open a new window but I do not want a new TAB, I would like it to be a POP up

Maybe better, a feature request to have this as an option in the AdminCP settings. Say have along with Open in New Window have Allow POP UP and select initial Size?

Thanks Man, Great Mod

I dont think that will ever happen. Im not a fan of popups generally, and in this case I think the new Tab/Window is al thats needed.

Ok no worries, I prefer the pop up, because a common complaint is as users are chatting they also want to view the forums, In my case we also use the chat during webcasts of races, so having the pop up while watching stats is a common thing for us.

Can you give me some assistance on changing the target to accomidate a pop up then. I am not asking you to do this, you can pm me the info, I would do it, and of course I know its not supported:up:

First : Gret hack/integration, thanks

Strange problem on my website, some of the user are blocked in the chat!
When they leave the chat and try to return back on it (1 hour, 1 day, ...) the chat says something like "your login is already in use"

They cannot return in the chat
When I go in it, I see that the login of the guy is there.

I already kicked them, banned/unbanned, ... but always the same happens.

Do you have an idea of what's the problem?

PS : a lot of poeple have this problem but not all of them

Thats an issue with flashchat - sounds like your fc sessions are not being cleared when people log out.

Sorry, but I dont get this - as it opens a new tab, they can view the forums in the other (original) tab. I dont see how a pop-up is any different.

Look in your templates for examples of window.open

Hi Paul

regarding item 1 the pop up

During the racing season, we host live chat as we listen to the live webcasts. The Webcasts have live streaming of stats and opens in another window as well (Pop Up) The common complain is not being able to have multiple pop ups say Stats, Chat and Video in three seperate windows say 400x300 or 600x400

Many of us use monitors at 21 inco or above and being able to view all screens at the same time is a plus for us.

Having TABS mean we have to stop viewing one to move to another or we have multiple instance of the browser running shrinking down the entire browser to say 600x400 and fitting all screens in. SEE ATTACHED

About Item 2
Yes I have looked but can find no example that would give me a pop up

You are not looking very hard ;) There is an example in the navbar, that opens the buddylist. :)

Hi Paul

After I installed FlashChat 6 all was well.

However, after I installed the following mods, loading stalls (see image).

Installed: Members who are chatting in Flashchat 6. [v4.0.1] (Paul M)

Installed: Flashchat 6 Integration for vBulletin 4.0 [v4.0.3] (Paul M)

Installed: FlashChat 6: Admin Panel Integration [v4.0.001] (Mosh)

Not sure if it's a coincidence but wondered if you could help. I will send my url by PM.

Many thanks.

WILFMAN

You changed your Flashchat settings and selected the Vista Style - which doesnt actually exist in FC 6.0.6. Change back to the Aqua Style.

since flashchat support is pretty slow.. i wonder if someone can help me out here...
mine is like it loads the flash chat... but nothing appears... i just see the sin... nothing shows up... does anione know the solution ?

*** please ignore this.. this has been fixed ***

Hi Paul,

I´ve installed the integration today. And until that the chat was running fine as usual. I really dont know what happend now. I cant enter the chat (similiar to Wilfman) but while the loader is working I get an error #1010 (Flash). I hadn´t touched the settings at all. At the end I can here the bell which should mean I am connected and in the chatroom - but I have no chatwindow, nothing.

As it seems this is caused by your mod. So I uninstalled it, uninstalled flashchat and removed the tables from the db, installed FC out of the box, copied your files and imported the xml. But, another turn & burn. Same errors, same behaviour.

Would you be so kind and could assist me with that ?

Wilfmans problem was unrelated to this mod, he changed his Flashchat settings, and that broke his chat.

It is also impossible for this to cause Flash errors, so something else must be happening.

You need to be a little more specific as to what assistance you want :)

Great, you?re online. I?ll provide u some details and a login in a PM. Gimme a second.

can this chat be placed at the front of the forum always open with the option to close it?

Nope.

Why i can't include that Chat in Forumhome/Display or Arcade.php on top?

Is that only on a seperate side?

Paul check the Attach File.

I made the installation as you say, but do not exist some file and do not read the application…Help me please. Thanks

You have not installed Flashchat correctly.

why everyone is getting "Banned From ChatBox" message, i triple check the usergroup permission and all have USER LEVEL access... but they are still gettin Banned from chatbox message... any reason why ?

Why i upload 2 Folders in root forum and upload for Admin Panel xml file. What going wrong? :(

This mod is NOT Flashchat, you must install that as well (as per the instructions).

where is flashchat install?

hey Paul i think u missed my post... i m having a issue.. every user is getting Banned from Chatbox... except admin and mod.. i double check the usergroup permission and they all set to User level.... can you advise me please.

Please read the purple support note in the main post :)

Installed, seems to be working. Great, thanks!

I knew that :rolleyes:

Thanks, now that I have some time to look at it, I can figure it out from here. Thanks

okay, i followed the instruction on purple note :) however your signature confused me with that purple note.....

I took a look, and you are not using the cms file supplied with this modification, therefore it wont work.

As the support note says ;

Judging by the dates on your files, it looks to me like you uploaded this mod on Dec 26th 2009, then uploaded a new set of chat files on Jan 2nd 2010, therefore overwriting this mods cms file with the default. You must re-upload this mods files.

Installed! Thank you very much! :)

Uninstalled - no fault of mod developer.
Flashchat v6 is simply way to buggy, incomplete and badly coded.

Hello,

My users except me as the admin are coming up saying they are banned and we need this chatroom only for registered users.

Thus I cannot find in my Admin CP where the permissions option is under usergroups?

All the best,
S.

Actually, it's buggy still, but they are working hard at it, quite complete and well coded. And it's free.

I know far more expansive chats that are not nearly as good.

At any rate, nice mod.

Can I use this as a chat widget in the CMS of VB4? If so, can someone point me in the direction of the instructions.

Not Found
The requested URL /forum/chat/flashchat.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Did i miss here something ??

Did you install Flashchat ?

Sure i did :)

Well since it cannot find a basic Flashchat file, either you havent, or you have installed it in the wrong place (see red note).

I'm having scroll bar issues with the chat box.. when I'm going to:

/misc.php?do=flashchat&room=1

It shows and log ins the chat box just fine without any problems. No scroll bar.. but when I move my mouse within the chatbox, it shows a scroll bar to both sides, causes flickering issues.

I've attached screenshots for example.. First one being normal, second with my mouse going within the chat box. Using FireFox 3.5.7. Internet Explorer seems to work fine.

Mind sharing how? I don't see any tutorial for that.

Secondly, can this FlashChat keep logs? I don't see any log options. I know you are not the author of FlashChat, but maybe you know a way to enable chat logs for the public.

You posted the answer in your own post .....

From the main post ;

I cannot answer your question on scrollbars - thats Flashchat or flash in general. As for logs, there are no public logs in Flashchat.
