Sorry If I missed it, I am sure it's here somewhere, but it IS 60 pages :)

How do I update from 1.11 to the new 2.22? Simple or difficult?
Thanks, In advance

Okay i'll try to make this clear, the problem with the posting been split it is a malfunction due to the 2 iframes refreshing continually while the chat opens, some browsers are unable to cope with this continual execution and throws the form hectic, this has been identified on slower machines only, anyone with a decent/hi-spec PC probably won't of experienced this problem. The solution to this is to optomize the chat even further, i plan on releasing v2.3 later today, no new features, a plain and simple optomization release to make the chat system more stable and executing fewer queries.

Nope, it didn't fix it. The bottom line remains cut off.
Then it's most definaty your skin i'm afraid, try install another skin and see if the problem is the same.

i am having trouble with the chat room not showing the messages when they are typed in. anyone have any idea on how to fix this?
Make sure you have JS enabled and your browser is not Safari/Ancient (very old)

Download the current package, look in archived versions, you will find v2.1, you can upgrade from 1.1.1 to v2.1, after that upgrade from v2.1 to 2.2 :)

So, only fresh installs of 2.3? No upgrade possible?

No, there is an easy 5-minute upgrade (if you have the template copier hack it takes 5 minutes)

Installation Update For v2.3
You may install v2.3 fresh
You may upgrade from v2.2 -> 2.3

Zero Tolerance 03-01-2005 12:51 PM

If your using v2.2 follow the upgrade instructions included.

If your using an earlier version than this, then archived version are included, they will contain the upgrades you need to get upto v2.2 so that you may then upgrade to v2.3 :)

Is there a way to not have it pop up in a new window? But to keep it in the vbulletin forum as in older version?

Possible but the "[user] Joins Room" and "[user] Leaves Room" will not function properly.

cnczone 03-01-2005 01:14 PM

still having problems with the size of the VBchat, how can I get it to be nice and small, I did try the mod of placing the size I want in the nav, but that made things worse.

Zero Tolerance 03-01-2005 01:16 PM

The chat is supposed to open in full screen, in a future release you will be able to control the % width/height of the window that opens, until then you won't i'm afraid unless you do it manually, not recommended however because everyone is on a different screen resolution.

NOTICE: All vBChat support will now be answered within the following forum: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=107

If you post here do not expect your question to be answered as fast as it would be in there.

Thank you for reading,

ZT made this killer hack EASY with great documentation, and an easy install program. I know 0 about PHP, but I can read, cut and paste, and ftp files. The NAVBAR was probably the hardest part, but knowing a little HTML helped...I found the perfect spot.

ZT is doing a great job on this chat room, so I paypal'ed him $20.00 for his efforts. :smoke:

Good Luck ZT

deb0 03-01-2005 10:04 PM

I can only get this to work under one style. I triple checked all style templates, yet it gives me a blank page at all other styles but the first.

deb0 03-01-2005 10:05 PM

This is a great hack, if I can get it working. Is there a way to control who can create chatrooms?

I want staff to have that control and not the enduser.

1. Please post in here for questions: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=107

2. To answer your question, yes, go to ACP -> vBChat Control -> Usergroup Permissions

3. To answer your previous question, please read our FAQ: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=77254

Note that any banned usergroups can not have permissions set, for obvious reasons.

weirdpixels 03-02-2005 08:53 AM

Great hack just installed :)
I notice on ever chat page you go to, there is always a little popup that appears. Can anyone tell me why this happens?

Mechanical Mind 03-02-2005 11:08 AM

This is a section of my forumhome template:

Code:

<!-- Start vBChat Users -->
<tbody>
 <tr>
  <td class="thead" colspan="2">
  <a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_chatusers')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_chatusers" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_chatusers].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>In Chat Room Now</td>
 </tr>
</tbody>
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_chatusers" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_forumhome_chatusers]">
 <tr>
  <td class="alt2"><a href="vBChat.php?$session[sessionurl]" onclick='return OpenvBChat();'><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_link.gif" alt="vBChat" border="0" /></a></td>
  <td class="alt1" width="100%">
  <div class="smallfont">
                                                {$invBChat}
  </div>
  </td>
 </tr>
</tbody>
<!-- End vBChat Users -->

Does anybody know how I can modify this code, so that the little default "forum_link.gif" image can be changed to a different image and the link to the chat room can be eliminated ???

I'm good at finding the section that needs to be modded, I just don't know what to do when I get there... :ermm:

Zero Tolerance 03-02-2005 11:10 AM

weirdpixels: It'd to tell if you exit the chat or not.

Mechanical Mind: Your looking for
Code:

<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/whos_online_24.gif" alt="Users online today" border="0" />
Change the src of the image to your desired image :)

Oops! I posted the wrong section of code ZT. Sorry about that.

Could you take another look at my post?

I am not trying to change the image for "Users Online in the Past 24 Hours". I am trying to change the image that appears next to the vBchat display and to remove the link...

For example I would like to upload a GIF, perhaps "currently_chatting.gif" and have it displayed there instead...

Zero Tolerance 03-02-2005 11:25 AM

Sure, here's the IMG code for that:
Code:

<img id="collapseimg_forumhome_chatusers" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_chatusers].gif" alt="" border="0" />
PS: Would it be possible for you to post in the support forum designated for vBChat now? It would help me out instead of going from thread to forum for supporting the same thing, thanks :)

Mechanical Mind 03-02-2005 11:40 AM

Sorry about that.
Thanks again.
I'll make a mental note to seek further support in the appropriate forum.

Why must the chat windows cover the entire screen? Is there a way to set this to open in a smaller window on launch?

I need to uninstall vBChat today. I see several questions regarding uninstalling it yet I never was able to find an answer.

How do I remove it?

Thanks and nice hack. It's just not for me.

Just undo all file edits that you did in reverse order, leaving the database modifications won't make any difference throughout your forum :)

deb0 03-07-2005 03:38 AM

I have one problem with this mod:

1. usergroup permissions don't work. You have to ban the group to prevent them from access alltogether.

other than that, great mod

BornMunson 03-07-2005 10:08 AM

I had an idea for a new feature in future versions of vBChat, which I think is a great program! What about a way to tell when someone has posted a new message or joined the room when you have the chat room minimzed or you are viewing another window in Internet Explorer? Same as you would when you receive a new message in MSN Messenger and the icon flashes until you restore or maximize the window again. Would this be possible?

The problem is worse than that. If you have secondary usergroups whom you restrict access to private rooms, that doesn't work either.

Well, if ZT decides to implement a sound when a new member enters the chat, then you will have your alarm.

I've posted a thread here, which shows changes that you can do, to have a sound playing, every time a new user logs in, but they are not complete and I would prefer if you wait for ZT to implement this feature, my version is a ... hack of his hack, to cover my user needs. I haven't tested it if the chat window is minimized, but it works OK, if it is resized to a very small size. Then when you hear the sound, you just make it larger.

I Moved This Question To the Proper Support Thread



I have and upgrade problem. Not sure what I have gotten wrong. Sorry to bother agian Zero but was wondering if you could tell me what I have done to get this error code when I try to run the install. I am just upgrading my public forum to 3.7. (thought it was but wasn't ;) )

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.7:

Invalid SQL: alter table vbchat_datastore
add `d_groupperms` text not null default ''

It's trying to add database fields that already exist - You don't need to run the install program again just to upgrade your forum to 3.0.7 - just re-do the file edits.
