I would like this feature as well.

I can't quite figure out why, but some of the smilies are broken images on the bottom of the chat window. I've attached a screen shot:

These are great ideas, I would love an invite feature. Was this ever answered?

This hack is AWESOME! Thank you!

When you view who is online, and when someone is in the chatroom, instead of saying "in chatroom" it says "Unknown Location". It does list the url, but is there a fix for this?

I also have this situation.

Hi There

How do i totally remove chat from my forums, db and templates?

Cheers

i would imagine you just click the "uninstall" box in the upper right hand corner of your post.

hahaha good one... now thats the obvious answer, shame when i click that it does fuk all.

cheers

Hi,

How strange is this...

I did the mods for vBChat...works great as far as I can tell, though unlike another user, it took ME a tad longer than 7 minutes to accomplish.

Anyhow, this line got me to chuckling:
That would be great, except that vBChat does not exist anywhere in my Admin CP. Anywhere. It certainly works well enough though...at least on the forum itself. Question is...whar'd it go in the CP? :D -Rod-

There was a step in the instructions to edit the /admincp/index.php. There was a section you needed to add, did you possible skip that by mistake? Here's the section of the instructions:

::: Open File - ROOT FORUM DIRECTORY/admincp/index.php

$printhr = false;

::: Save & Reupload ROOT FORUM DIRECTORY/admincp/index.php

Hi,

That was done and I rechecked it. It looks fine to me. The chat works fine, it's just not present in my admincp -Rod-

EDIT: K, I got it. I just redid it from an backup set of original files and it worked fine. Maybe an odd character got created before. Dunno. Anyhow, thanks :) -Rod-

Ok. I know your suppose to ask the questions in the VBCHAT forum, but I asked question days ago and its a ghost town.

My members are complaining that the refresh is SLOOOWWWWW. Is there a way to make realtime, more realtime? faster refresh

Also I would like to strip down the user info on the right side, just their name would be fine (get rid of Send PM and Status)

Thank you

i install this mod but i can't works true;

you watch at: www.mpx.gen.tr/forum2 (with default template)

when i click the vbChat button, the windows opens but there is anything to do?

I suggest that you first start with uploading clean (original!!!) vB files, before you try making modifications.

The version you are using is very insecure.

my vbChat was working fine before but now I get this error and it won't log anything after someone types anything

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home2/gyutae/public_html/drumsetconnect/forums/includes/functions_newpost.php:2) in /vBChat.php on line 243

My chat is working great but members are saying its slow. Is there anything I can do to fix this issue? thanks in advance.

I have 1.1.1 installed and working ok, how do i upgrade to 2.3, is it safe to do it with the installer, o do i have to manually remove it from the forum??

If i need to remove it manually from the forum, does anybody has a 1.1.1 file just to follow instructions backwards.
thanks.

When I enter a chat room it opens the page to full size. I want users to be able to chat and cruise the forums. How do I change this? I tried to make the page smaller but it won't let me.

there's seems to be some issues using this with Safari browser on the Mac, the screen shows blank, firefox and ie browsers for the mac work fine though

Found it in old post!

resizable=yes

in firefox for mac when you add a smilie the 'javascript add smilie' part goes into the chat window too along with the smilie, also I am curious how hard would it be to put all the smilies on the chat window, but in multiple rows? I have a php coding friend who can do it just wondering if this is possible

I installed this correctly, but when I go to the chat, I get a blank page?

I also am getting a blank page. Saying it can not be found

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.7:

Invalid SQL: alter table vbchat_datastore
add `d_roomprune` int(15) not null default '1';
mysql error: Duplicate column name 'd_roomprune'

mysql error number: 1060

getting this on upgrading from 1.1.1...

I originally had the first ever hack of this but decided not to use it as the screen keep refreshing and flashing! On reading that the new version does not do that i thought i'd try again :tired:

same here.....

EDIT:

I think I fixed the problem, go here, see if this works for you https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=92360

does anyone know if there is a way to increase the amount of lines on the chat screen that are in memory? so that I can scroll up a few pages to see what I missed...

Hi there, i tried installing chat but came across the same problem i did with trying to install the arcade which is that it doesn't appear to recognise that the install file is there.

thus i am assuming it is something i have done with my set up

this is the error message for chat:

Warning: main(./global.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /hsphere/local/home/jules213/youth-tv.co.uk/forums/admincp/install_vbchat.php on line 16

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required './global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /hsphere/local/home/jules213/youth-tv.co.uk/forums/admincp/install_vbchat.php on line 16

and this for arcade

Warning: main(./global.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /hsphere/local/home/jules213/youth-tv.co.uk/forums/admincp/install_arcade.php on line 24

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required './global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /hsphere/local/home/jules213/youth-tv.co.uk/forums/admincp/install_arcade.php on line 24

anyone any ideas what i may have done?

thanks

Same here. Any help? :ermm:

don't hold yer breath, i've went back to sigmachat,fully functional with my forums :squareeyed:

ach well least ive bumped this up lol :ninja:

Gentlemen,

you have to understand, that this is a difficult period for all vB hack developers. With the announcement of vB 3.5, we are all working hard to port our hacks to the new version, which is not an easy task I assure you.

So please do not be too harsh on ZT, or any other developer here.

Rgds

Then perhaps uncheck the support box so we will know?

Fair enough, ZT is a great developer,I apologise for my comments but as mustang_lex says why not "temp" untick support box..

I posted in the chat forum about the prob i have above, I stated why I dumped the original vbchat hack but since its been so well developed since then I wanted to try again but when your site is popular and folk like a good chatroom you have to try and get stuff up quickly as you will all know.. Now i've went with sigmachat and have it workin a treat

My sites not broke so why the need to fix it {upgrade} :ninja: :ninja:

I'm waiting till all the beta's are out :nervous:

How do you set the font size for the entire chat system? - ie all the font size on this page - http://forums.planetxbox360.com/vBChat.php?

They are too big!

i tried installing this mod but get a blank page in admincp when i try and activate it. any ideas? i'm running 3.0.7 barely modded if at all

it is having trouble rendering admin_vbchat.php for some reason. i double checked my changes against the instructions and i'm pretty sure i've done them correctly?

fixed.. "chown apache:apache <vbchat files>"

I wonder it to. How can i remove the hole chat from the template and database.

This chat sink the hole databse and the forum goes slow

Me and users on my forum really enjoy this chat, thank you very much! Will it be upgraded to be compatible with vB 3.5.0 version?

could you add a feature to show the current users browsing the forums and invite them into chat via something similar to the PM popup ?

We presently have 1.1.1 installed, can we directly upgrade from 1.1.1 to 2.3 without error?

Thanks!
