Funny thing about this hack... the server path is the EXACT same thing it is on my server :D

Ensim :) Gotta love it!

Note:
if you want a _ instead of a space and your using my setup replace

PHP Code:


		
			
$chatusername=str_replace(" ","",$bbuserinfo[username]);

with

PHP Code:


		
			
$chatusername=str_replace(" ","_",$bbuserinfo[username]);

Great! I got it installed; however, my links back to my forum, members, calender, etc. are all linked to my chat directory and won't get users back to the forum (or any of the links). How do I change this? Thanks.

you could install my version them place the chat.php into your forum folder, thats would fix it

Where do I get your version? Or am I reading this wrong.

I just changed the index.php (for the chat) to indexchat.php, and dropped it in my forum's directory, and fixed the problem. Is this ok to do? It's working fine.

Slynderdale

04-23-2002 01:18 PM

its the one i posted above that uses a small 3 lines php file and a template for the chat, if you name it other then chat.php just change the name in online.php

Thanks for this hack, I found that if I was to install this in another directory say called /chat/index.php/3
I would have to upload my forum images into the chat directory, so I renamed the index.php to chat.php and uploaded it into the forum directory without having to upload any images and it works fine,

Hi,

A quick intro. I am brand newbie to vBulletin and paid for my license tonight. I have tried to install this but it won't work.

The page just comes up blank and if I change the path testing various possiblies it mostly give me the not found error. Any ideas? I am running vBulletin on a win2k machine, might this be the issue?

I would really appreciate any help you could give.

I have installed this hack but when you try to load it it seems to "pause" for ages then comes up with :

Closing Link ...blah blah.. (USER: bad username)

Any ideas ?

To solve the error in the login, in the chat template change the line

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

to

<param name="username" value="javauser">

or put your site name or something there instead of "javauser"....

What exactly does this do? The reason I ask is it my chat works great for my admin name and for other's so far. But, I have a regular user account so I can view the board as a regular user. When I try to chat with my "Mike's Dad" as my user name, it first gives me a user name taken, then all subsequent nick changes result in the error message given above, bad user name. I am going to try what you said above, but what exactly is the problem? I'm just interested.

Some characters can not be used in usernames. I don't know about the requirements for this particular chat, but if a name contains invalid characters then you will not get into chat.

xeon	05-10-2002 12:35 PM

Well that was something I overlooked, the apostraphe is invalid. Any suggestions on how to work the apostraphe? Can these be masked out or something? Thanks in advance, if all else fails I can edit members user names and make a note when registering not to use ' in the user name. Currently out of about 450, only 14 member names have the invalid charachter.

[edit] I figured out how to strip the apostraphe using the str_replace, but now I seem to get the apostraphe stripped and it only uses the first part of the user name, ie. Mike's Dad is Mikes. Here is my chat.php

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

error_reporting(7);



require('./global.php');



$chatusername=str_replace(" ","_",$bbuserinfo[username]);

$chatusername=str_replace("'","",$bbuserinfo[username]);



eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate('forumchat')."\");");



?>

I am using the the Sylverdale forumchat template with the chatusername replacements. Yes I am learning on the fly. ;)

05-10-2002 08:54 PM

Well, look at your code:

the first "$chatusername=..." line, what does this do? It looks at $bbuserinfo[username] (Mike's Dad), replaces each space with an underscore, and then stores the edited value in $chatusername (Mike's_Dad)

The second line again looks at $bbuserinfo[username] (Mike's Dad), removes each apostrophe, and the stores the edited value in $chatusername (Mikes Dad), overwriting the already existing value of Mike's_Dad :(
Since the first value was overwritten, $chatusername now has a value of "Mikes Dad".
Your chat only accepts the first part, before the space, meaning "Mikes Dad" will be logged in as "Mikes".

Back to the drawing board ;)

Hell'o there. Many thanx for that great and easy hack.

BUT I'M STILL WONDERING...

Is there a way to have an "Who's chatting on line" list
for that ?

Excuse me. What do you mean exactly with 'compile' ?
I downloaded the jars from sourceforge and uploaded to my webserver home directory.
The applet seems working fine, unless I still have: !!! Couldn't resolve server address: irc.webmaster.com

Do you know any solution ?

Thanks

Ok here was my fix - make sure you put both templates in all your styles!! :D

tony	06-21-2002 08:56 PM

Ok when you say create template eric and engine.

Do I do that in my admin cp?

Thanks for answering a dump question, It has been awhile since I have installed some hacks. I have people on my board that want a chat room.

Thanks Tony

tony	06-24-2002 12:35 AM

Ok I have the chat installed so forget about my last post.

What a great Hack.

How come every time I go to the chat room it starts out as private and after ahile it will go to public?

Could someone please help me with this bit:

3. Find in the index.php file supplied in zip:

chdir('/home/virtual/site2/fst/var/www/html/forums/');

and edit the path to point to your forums directory.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So what goes where in here ???

My URL: is http://www.world-of-digital.com/foru...x.php.........

So how would i edit this path to point to the forums directory

Sorry i sound thick on this one :confused:

Regards Gazer.

After dowloading the attachment: vb eric hack 1.0 zip. you will need to unzip it. You will need a program to do this. I use cutezip.

I just had this chat hack set up on my forums,http://www.moneytec.com/chat/ but when entering from my site we go to a public room. Is there a way to set this to a private room where my site members can discuss topic's pertaining to my sites content

Gutspiller

07-10-2002 11:49 PM

Does this hack allow you to connect to different IRC servers? I tried the demo and it wouldn't let me. Was I doing something wrong?

Larz	07-25-2002 03:48 PM

I spent eternity trying to make this work, without succes.

It wasn't until I took the index.php from the chat dir, renamed it chat.php and put it in my forum root dir, that I made it work.

I hope someone else might benefit from doing the same - and that someone smarter than me can possibly tell me if there are any problems with that procedure.

I set it all up, and it seems to work nicely, there's just 1 thing tho. The Username won't show up, instead my nick sais: "Unregistered". I can still change it after logging in, but it would be nice if the vbulletin nick would could be carried over. I'm using 2.2.6

Sorry, but you need a Java 1.1.x enabled browser to use The Game Vine Chat Room.

From the looks of it, Microsoft are no longer supporting Java, which is a huge pain in the arse :(

Can anyone point me in the direction of something I and my users can download in order to use this chat software?

Cheers.

If this is already released, could someone please direct me to the thread as I can't find it.

Now I installed this, and what I am hoping for is a way to send an invite to members that are browsing the boards and not in the chat. Also, if there is a way for the users in chat to be displayed on the forum index page, so they can see who is in before they even join?

That would be real sweet!
Thanks for your time, :)
