Just thought I would mention that I found a fairly new irc server that allows you to register your channel, make them hidden and the server operator will help you set it up. I had seen some post in here about wanting to make their room private or hidden..

anyone else know what other servers that might let you register a channel without a lot of hassle?

I also added the "If you want to display the users over the top of threads list. Use GeorgeofCS previous code from his hack on digichat. Here is a paste: "

But my forum doesnt display anything. Could you post a pic of where it should appear? please

Hi PhotoGenie,

I have installed it, but it doesnt work
I cannot figure out what is that main_chat.php file you are referring to? i dont have it.

help.

All fixed. Thanx!

Can someone give me an example of how the chatmain should be setup, like the syntax of the code?

Also how do logged in members on the board use their member names to log into the jIRC. Can this be done automatically?

Thx

the html for that is in the first post in this thread.

and i still don't understand what the Whois online chatting problem is. but if you fixed it, great. :p

is there a irc server were they allow spaces in your user name? my name on my site is "big bad opus" and when i trie to log on the server things my name is "big."

is there a way to kill the spaces in a user's name?

that is a limitation of jpilot or IRC, not a limitation of this hack. i'm not sure how to "fix" this. sorry. :(

I installed the JPilot integration as described in the first post, that part is working fine.

But I can't seem to get the "Who's in JIRC" hack to work. I followed the directions in whosinjirc_chat.txt, but the $chatters variable doesn't display anything.

Anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?

this hack doesn't have whois in chat functionality. are you confusing this with another hack?

...though, i was meaning to add whois in chat functionality, i just need to spend some time with it.

Elsewhere in this thread, someone posted a "Who's In Chat" hack that is supposed to work with this. Couldn't get it to work tho.

HACK ADDON:

JPilot IRC applet doesn't allow you to have spaces in your name. So if your VBulletin username is "Joe Blow", this hack will log you in to IRC as "Joe" because the JPilot IRC applet ignores everything after the space.

Here's a way to get this hack to substitute an underscore character "_" for a space so that you will log into IRC with your full username:

In your chatmain template, change:

<param name="NickName" value="$bbuserinfo[username]">

To:

<param name="NickName" value="$ircname">

In your phpinclude template, add:

$ircname = ereg_replace(" ", "_", $bbuserinfo[username]);

That's it! Hope this helps.

Hack works great, only one problem, i have installed vbportal as a home page, and the irc chat link only works now when it is clicked from within the forums area, and not on the home page? any suggestions?

check out to see what i am talking about at http://www.hack100.com

your links are correct. it should work. others have had problems with this hack and vbportal together. vbportal might do something differently that is jacking the jpilot.

maybe try removing the sessionhash in the link?

I'm IRC illiterate....I have all the files uploaded, and the templates added, now where do I go to connect to a server? Do I have to register a channel and nick? Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

I registered my channel and we were approved. I just installed a chat client and together with this hack, it works great!

BTW, the chat client we are using is free. :)

hey Jakeman-

Thanks for the hack. I checked out your site. Great job! I know a lot of hard work went into the design, and it shows.
