DP, I thought of an idea for this mod. You know how some chat products have "chat archives"? I think it would be a good idea if you implemented an "archive" type system for this. For example, each day it creates a thread, like "dp chat 1-30-2011" and dumps all of the "chats" for the day/week/month etc. in there and on the chat archive page, have it link to the pages.

I tagged this one. When there are mod controls that allow me and the mods to ban and kick and edit the chat I will try it out. I like it so far. I am looking for a chat that will allow my not registered/not logged in user group to chat. Can't find one that is easy to deal with so far.

Could someone PLEASE explain where this is: Put the digitalpoint_chat.js file in your clientscript folder.

Where is this clientscrpit folder?

Usually I upload using FileZilla to my host, but this is different?? Thanks!

Thanks for the mod. I have always loved your site , and always look to it when I upgrade my vbulletin.

What I want from a chat module, is the ability to set it on a timer. Make it available only during certain hours. For example, on my site, primetime is between 5 and 9pm central time. Any chance of adding that? Any other time, it would just display a message "chat only available between hours of ...."

This would be of great use to me

How can I clean out previous chat, like a prune function ? Otherwise til there is some like that in this Mod, the list will be long as hell. At least a general prune function should be there.

Otherwise I like it very much :)

I've installed, but the thing is the chat only shows up when i go to myurl.com/chat.php
How can I get it to just show up, or to make a tab? Can I even put it into my CMS page?? please help!

digitalpoint

It's a standalone page, it's not a shoutbox or something you can embed on to a different page.

jitsuboy

02-07-2011 10:54 PM

So how will the people logging into my forum know that they have to type in the url "mysite.com/chat.php"? They are only going to log into "mysite.com"

Thanks

You could put a link to it if you want, or they could use it under Quick Links.

digitalpoint, don't you see the pattern with the questions here?

everyone wants to know how could we actually embed this on the page somewhere... or at the very least, have it as a CMS widget or something?

It works fine with arabic as long as the charset for the site is UTF-8.

seems to work ok on my 4.1.3 but i get no avatars. my wishlist for next version:

-ability to scroll and maintain a longer history
-who's in the chat
-smiley support
-enter a purge command to blank the chat

thanks

Thanks so much for taking the time to post this code Digital Point. I was looking for simple: very little load time and load on the system. We use this like we would "twitter". Example: "Hey: I will be back on at 8:00 pm" . PS: I do not run a public board so we keep it informal.

I read the posts in the forum and it seems that people did not understand the reason you posted the code. So I wanted to give you a little praise. Thanks Again!

How do I get this onto the main forum page?

MrD	10-25-2011 07:25 AM

Hi,
if it?s possible to Open the Chat in a new Window ?
So the User can Chat and read the Forum at the same time :D

digitalpoint

10-25-2011 07:43 AM

I don't see why not, is it not letting you?

MrD	10-25-2011 07:46 AM

Hi,
the chat open in the same Window and works good.
But Users wish, that it open on a new page.
how can i make this?

digitalpoint

10-25-2011 07:49 AM

Could just change the target on the a href tag... although if they want to open it in a new window, why don't they? :)

Sorted, thanks!

On another note are you releasing your best answer mod here at all?

That one looks sweet too.

No sorry... have to keep some stuff or else my site wouldn't be unique. :)

I think there is an addon here at vb.org that does something similar though.

Hey Shawn,

Is it possible to include avatars like on DP?

Also is it possible to stop the 'entering' and 'leaving' messages, they clog the window up on my forum.

digitalpoint

11-04-2011 11:09 PM

I thought avatars were included? Hmmm... can you give me a link to where you have it installed?
