This may be a bit offtopic, but is there a way to display partly of the chat room at the bottom of the forum? So they can chat from there right away with auto-login on their username?

I have a problem, I installed but my flash chat is in/chat/livechat all i get is errors saying it cannot find files etc any help appreciated

Sorry, Flashchat+vbulletin (and this mod) are only supported if F/C is installed in the chat folder - not any other name, or sub folder.

Hi Paul, previously you'd given some instructions on how to place the members currently using flashchat info at the top of the forumhome page under the navbar. Would you mind doing that with this version as well? I've played around with it but I keep just getting the text without the box and it's all out of order. Having the the feature at the top, under the navbar, really helps bring more traffic into chat. Thanks.

I have an add-on for this hack that shows it at the top on the forumhome page and on other pages too. It builds on this hack, so this hack will need to be installed before installing mine. Check out the link in the Addons section of the first post of this hack for the link.

It seems to remove the display at the bottom though. No way to have both I guess?

Anyway, is there any way for the text Members currently using Flashchat: 0 to appear in the same font/size as the Currently Active Users: 1 (1 members and 0 guests) field? The box seems to have a larger font now, same as the What's Going On? text.

I appreciate it.

Please post over in my support thread for questions about my hack, as this thread is just for Paul M's hack.

Does the chat have to be installed in forum/chat? For example, my installation at the moment is...

root/forum
root/chat

Is that fine? Or does chat have to be installed in the forum folder?

It must be in the forum.

i.e. root/forum/chat

As I was uploading the XML for this mod (days after installing the flashchat and integration mod) the page refreshed and the following error message appeared:

Database error in vBulletin 3.8.2:

Invalid SQL:

I don't really know what to do to fix this and I've been googling solutions for a couple days with no fix in sight. The board doesn't come up, members can't view the page, I can access the admin cp however. HELP please!
