Beautiful... awesome Add on... I freakin love it! :)

madmax1228 05-23-2008 08:43 AM

I am a not so advanced user.

Paid for one month at your site to see how the users like this.

Received these errors at upload:

Warning: require_once([path]/includes/functions_addonchat.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/admincp/addonchat.php on line 10

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/shelbyma/public_html/forum/includes/functions_addonchat.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/shelbyma/public_html/forum/admincp/addonchat.php on line 10

I have multiple forums on my messageboard with a different style than the main/default style. This mod uses the default style, while I want to use this chat with a different set of forums (a different style).

How can I force addonchat to use a different style than the default one?

joeycano 05-27-2008 05:48 AM

I have submitted a ticket to already and they are still looking into the issue. I thought to post here as there are some talented coders on vb.org who may have already encountered a soltuion to my issue.

The only problem that I have encounered is that my "Chat Room" link does not work when click while on a PhotoPost page. The issue has to do which link misdirection:

- Link is Currently Going To: http://www.thaibulletin.com/gallery/addonchat.php

- But Should Go To: http://www.thaibulletin.com/forum/addonchat.php

I believe that there is a relative URL somewhere that needs to be fully written out, I think. Any suggetions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

:)

Boofo 05-27-2008 05:53 AM

Those links look the same to me.

Did you upload the files?

Grim77 05-27-2008 12:13 PM

shlomot - Nice suggestions. I'm not sure if we'll be able to update the forum activity timer as the software is remotely hosted, but I do like your invite suggestion and think it won't be too difficult to implement :)

sdavis2702 - Glad everything is going OK :)

TCB - Custom styles shouldn't cause an issue unless there are modifications made to your templates; in that case you may have to edit the addonchat templates to match the customizations you have in place.

madmax1228 - Agree with Boofo; it sounds like your files weren't uploaded.

joeycano - The nav links, by default, are relative links. It sounds like PhotoPost may have modified the template to make the links absolute, but I'm not sure. With the holiday weekend, technical support may be a little backed up, but we'll get to you. If you haven't already; please respond to your ticket with a vB admincp username/password so that may modify your template if needed to resolve this issue.

joeycano 05-27-2008 12:56 PM

PhotoPost Issued is now fixed. Here is the solution provided by addonchat top notched tech support:


The issue is definitely related to PhotoPost modifications that require absolutely links. I've modified your addonchat_nav_link template to point directly to addonchat.php and addonchat_who.php at http://thaibulletin.com/forum/

I did a quick test in your photo gallery and everything appears to be working fine now :)

Thanks tech support.:)

Mrdby 05-28-2008 12:23 AM

will there be anything else added to this for us vbulletin users?

Boofo 05-28-2008 12:59 AM

For instance?

What suggestions would you like to make?

Mrdby 05-29-2008 12:47 AM

I'll get back to you...oh..we can assign mods to help run the chatroom correct?

Grim77 05-29-2008 01:54 AM

Mrdby -- Yes, with the Pro+ or Enterprise editions, you can assign user privileges (administrative, moderation, etc..) from the vBulletin usergroup manager.

berben4 05-29-2008 04:08 AM

I just purchased the pro+, it seems like a great product but I too have the photopost issue with the chat links. Please post the mods to the template so the others and I may make the necessary changes. Thank you.

dodjer42 05-29-2008 04:37 AM

Hey Grim,

Is there anyway to build the chat into the main forum view rather than having to click into it via tabs?

I currently have Chatbox installed which shows at the top of forum home. I'd like to replace it with this addonchat.

I now have addonchat Pro+ license + firewall + avatars.

Tks.

Certainly. In your AdminCP, click over to Styles & Templates -> Style Manager. Expand the Default Style (or the master style you're using). and double-click addonchat_nav_link. Delete all of the code in this template, and replace with:
Code:

<if condition="$addonchat[enabled]"> 
  <if condition="$show['popups']">
      <td id="addonchat" class="vbmenu_control"><a href="$addonchat[forum_url]/addonchat.php$session[sessionurl]" accesskey="addonchat">$vbphrase[addonchat_nav_link_title] $addonchat[user_count_bracket]</a> <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("addonchat"); </script>
        <!-- addonchat menu -->
        <div class="vbmenu_popup" id="addonchat_menu" style="display:none" align="$stylevar[left]">
            <table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">
            <tr><td class="thead">$vbphrase[addonchat_nav_link_title]</td></tr>
           
            <if condition="$addonchat[vb_enable_embed]">
              <tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="$addonchat[forum_url]/addonchat.php$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[addonchat_enter]</a></td></tr>
            </if>

            <if condition="$addonchat[vb_enable_popup]">
              <tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="#"
                  onClick="window.open('addonchat.php?$session[sessionurl]do=popup', 'addonchat',
                  'width=$addonchat[width_float],height=$addonchat[height_float],statusbar=no,scrollbars=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,resizable=yes');
                  return false">$vbphrase[addonchat_enter_float]</a></td></tr>
            </if>

            <if condition="$addonchat[vb_enable_whos_chatting]">
              <tr><td class="thead">$addonchat[user_count] $vbphrase[addonchat_nav_users_in_room]</td></tr>
              <tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="$addonchat[forum_url]/addonchat_who.php$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[addonchat_whos_chatting]</a></td></tr>
            </if>

            </table>
        </div>
        <!-- / addonchat menu -->
      </td>
  <else />
      <if condition="$addonchat[vb_enable_embed]">
        <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="$addonchat[forum_url]/addonchat.php$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[addonchat_nav_link_title] $addonchat[user_count_bracket]</a></td>
      </if>
  </if> 
</if>

This code requires that the Forum URL setting in the AddonChat account information section of your Admin Control Panel is correct.

Not sure I understand. You want the chat room itself to be loaded on the forum home page? If you have a screenshot of what you'd like, that may help :)

For everyone else -- I just got notified that vB 3.7.1 is now available; so now is a great time to start submitting any other suggestions you may have :)

berben4 05-29-2008 03:44 PM

Hi Chris,
That worked except for the float link. I would also request code to place the number of chatters and a link to the chat on any page, including html pages outside of vBulletin. Thank you.


I added the code to correct the float below

PHP Code:

<if condition="$addonchat[enabled]">   
   <if 
condition="$show['popups']">
      <
td id="addonchat" class="vbmenu_control"><a href="$addonchat[forum_url]/addonchat.php$session[sessionurl]accesskey="addonchat">$vbphrase[addonchat_nav_link_title$addonchat[user_count_bracket]</a> <script type="text/javascript"vbmenu_register("addonchat"); </script>
         <!-- 
addonchat menu -->
         <
div class="vbmenu_popup" id="addonchat_menu" style="display:none" align="$stylevar[left]">
            <
table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">
            <
tr><td class="thead">$vbphrase[addonchat_nav_link_title]</td></tr>
            
            <if 
condition="$addonchat[vb_enable_embed]">
               <
tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="$addonchat[forum_url]/addonchat.php$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[addonchat_enter]</a></td></tr>
            </if>

            <if 
condition="$addonchat[vb_enable_popup]">
               <
tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="#"
                  
onClick="window.open('$addonchat[forum_url]/addonchat.php?$session[sessionurl]do=popup', 'addonchat', 
                  'width=
$addonchat[width_float],height=$addonchat[height_float],statusbar=no,scrollbars=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,resizable=yes'); 
                  return false"
>$vbphrase[addonchat_enter_float]</a></td></tr>
            </if>

            <if 
condition="$addonchat[vb_enable_whos_chatting]">
               <
tr><td class="thead">$addonchat[user_count$vbphrase[addonchat_nav_users_in_room]</td></tr>
               <
tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="$addonchat[forum_url]/addonchat_who.php$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[addonchat_whos_chatting]</a></td></tr>
            </if>

            </
table>
         </
div>
         <!-- / 
addonchat menu -->
      </
td>
   <else />
      <if 
condition="$addonchat[vb_enable_embed]">
         <
td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="$addonchat[forum_url]/addonchat.php$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[addonchat_nav_link_title$addonchat[user_count_bracket]</a></td>
      </if>
   </if>   
</if> 


nwingate 05-29-2008 04:16 PM

Can we have an option where we want the chat link on our navbar? I'd prefer the left side instead of the right. It's confusing because it goes where the drop down for quick links is now.

DieselMinded 05-29-2008 04:34 PM

I have some suggestions

Ability to enter chat invisible , not go in be seen then go invisible

Log a user off after X amount of hours of just sitting in there with out "Chatting"

Here is a screenshot of the current chatbox on front page. We expect a large amount of our traffic to be chat. So having it forefront is important.

http://www.wpguild.com/upload/screeny.JPG

BTW, A few of our users actually reported some serious performance problems with addonchat and firefox 2.

Grim77 05-31-2008 02:13 PM

berben4 - Thank you for the code correction. As far as the link code you require, you can link directly to the chat room from any page on your site (outside of vBulletin) using any of the link codes provided in your AddonChat account control panel (Home -> Chat Room Link Code) and under Settings -> Site Integration -> Who's Chatting you can find the Who's Chatting link code.

dodjer42 - The Chat Box you're using looks like a stateless chat room and functions much differently than AddonChat. While it would be possible to place the chat room on the main page, I wouldn't advise to do so in this manner as whenever the user moves to a a different page, he/she would lose the socket connection. There should be absolutely no performance problems with Firefox 2 -- in fact, we use Firefox 2.0.0.14 on all of our development systems for primary testing under Mac OS-X, Vista, and Win XP.

DiesellMinded - Already on the suggestion list for the 8.1 update. When the feature is available, we'll be sure to include it into the vBulletin integration script.

nwingate - Good suggestion, I'll add it to our list :) Thank you!

berben4 05-31-2008 02:51 PM

Thank you Chris, you have a really great product :)

jbear6 06-04-2008 09:01 PM

I am running vB 3.7.1, and just installed this addon. The installation seemed to go smoothly, but after refreshing my admin control panel, and clicking on "AddonChat/Account Settings", I received this error message:

"Warning: require_once([path]/includes/functions_addonchat.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/admincp/addonchat.php on line 10

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/jbear6/public_html/includes/functions_addonchat.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/jbear6/public_html/admincp/addonchat.php on line 10"

I don't have a "functions_addonchat.php" file in my includes folder, should I?

Thanks,
Jbear6

Grim77 06-04-2008 10:16 PM

Jbear6 -- Yes, you should. It should have been copied over with all of the other files during the initial installation. In the archive, you'll find the file in the upload/includes folder. You may also want to double check that all of the other files in the includes/ folder (including files in the includes/xml and includes/cron folder) have been uploaded as well.

Thanks Chris, the file was there in the archive includes folder. I don't know how I missed it. I uploaded it, and everything is working just fine. Thanks!

How do i enable the directive php allow_url_fopen or how do I know what to put in Account Details box since my Automatic Lookup Did not work?

kefallon 06-05-2008 02:51 PM

When i click addonchat account settings i get a white page url ending
/index.php
how do i remove the files to install from fresh again?

andrewc_11890 06-06-2008 12:14 AM

I am confused as to what to put in the account detail box since the automatic lookup did not work.

acorndomains.co 06-06-2008 12:45 AM

Awesome product, installed and working in minutes with 3.7.1

Buy the commericial version for Vbulletin integration to work, well worth the money

Thanks!

CNibbana 06-07-2008 11:22 PM

This is the best chat system I have seen yet. I have used jIRC, pIRC and FlashChat and this blows them all away!

There are plenty of user configurable options, it looks better than j/pIRC, it is faster than FlashChat and doesn't expose you to hackers (because it is hosted remotely). I love it!

Although I plan to upgrade to the Pro edition so I can get all of the options, I have been using this for a couple of days with the free version and vBulletin integration and it works just fine.

Grim77 06-08-2008 02:14 AM

jbear6 -- Glad you got it working :) If you feel that the installation instructions need revising or have any suggestions, please let me know.

andrewc_11890 - You need either CURL or the allow_url_fopen directive enabled. If you're using a hosted service, you'll need to contact your web host provider to enable one of these two options. If you run your own server, the easiest way to get it going is to edit your php.ini file and set allow_url_fopen to On. (allow_url_fopen = On) It's not necessary to have this option enabled for installation or use, but it does make installation a little faster and is required for using the Who's Chatting system.

kefallon - Not sure how that could have happened. I wouldn't recommend removing any files, but rather re-installing the files and making sure they've been copied to the correct location. In this case, it sounds (at the least) as though the addonchat.php file wasn't uploaded to the admincp/ folder.

acorndomains.co - Wonderful! :) Glad everything is working well for you. Just an FYI, we do have a UK division (support@addonchat.co.uk) should you need assistance they may be able to answer enquiries a little faster for you if you're across the pond.

CNibbana - Great to hear! eMail support@addonchat.com with your account number and the service level you think you may be interested in getting, and we'll be happy to give you a two week trial.

Fungsten 06-08-2008 05:16 PM

I have admin priviledges but can't seem to add a chat room. I'm I missing something.

Did you upload the files as per the instructions? If so, you should simply have to enter your account number and password from the AddonChat menu in the AdminCP and everything will be set up automatically.

Boofo 06-09-2008 03:16 AM

Chris, did you get the support ticket info?

Grim77 06-10-2008 01:07 PM

Boofo -- one of our other techs may have caught it, perhaps? What's the ticket number? I'll be happy to look into it.

I think I did. I got this error:

Quote:

Error setting remote authentication URL.

This error is most likely caused by entering an incorrect account number, password or an invalid authentication URL. This error can also be caused if you do not have a Professional PLUS or Enterprise account, or if you do not have the Remote Authentication module.

Please verify your account number, password and authentication URL and try your request again.
I don't have the Pro + or Enterprise account.


On Edit:

I didn't realize you had to purchase:

Quote:


You may then modify chat room permissions from the Usergroups menu in the Admin Control Panel. For this feature to work, you must have purchased the remote authentication module, or have an AddonChat Professional PLUS or Enterprise account.

Grim77 06-11-2008 05:29 PM

Just make sure you set the option to enable remote authentication to 'No' during the initial setup, and any free account will work just fine -- the features are limited, but you'll still have a nice embedded chat room :)
