How do I uninstall this?

when's the next version https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2005/04/3.gif

Can anyone tell me how to uninstall it?

run the /admincp/vbchat_install.php then click uninstall

I tried that but it doesn't have an uninstall option.

sounds like a good script, will install. One option people will ask for, sound when a new message appears or when someone enters the room

Hi Zero

Quality hack mate

Is there a way to change it from 8secs to longer, i'm on 1.5 meg connection speeds and it blinks every 4-5 secs and is quite annoying - althou you do get used to it :nervous:

I figured it out.

Installed and works a charm!

I just found out that the text blinks on my LCD monitor, but not on my regular monitor and both computers are hooked up to DSL (1.5 meg). Must be the difference in the way the screens are refreshed or in the refresh rates. Or could it possibly be the video card? Anybody know?

I will need to be able to explain this in case anyone complains about it after my site goes live.

Thanks,
Lisa

It's actually the performance of your computer. Has nothing to do with monitors. :p For me, it sometimes blinks, but that's because of my server.

Here's a little something I wiped up. A few template edits to make it a pop up. Hope I didn't forget anything. I put a warning there saying to back up your templates. So do so. :p

If I'm brakin' some rule, I apologize and will take down the files. ._.'

Would you care to elaborate on the reasoning why it has to do with my computer? I am really curious. This computer is the best one out of all the ones I tried and none of the others had any problems.

Lisa

No no, you said about it being your monitor or something. Or perhaps I misunderstood somewhere. But yeah, it's rather the performance of your computer, the browser, or the server your on. As far as I know, one of those could be it, but I'm sure there's other reasons that I'm not aware of.

thanks a lot
a least a good chat for vb3

hi ZT
i got a problem with the refresh.......... how can i change it in 20 sec for example?
thanks a lot

Our chat room is the same, its blinks contantly and the users don't like it

I've had to revert back to the sigma chat room i have also :ermm:

I liked the look about the vB one thou

Still maybe future versions will iron out the probs :rolleyes:

Thanks for the hack.

I'm eagerly awaiting the new versions.

The blinking text cannot be fixed, as i have explained before the page requires to reload, which may or may not result in blinking text, which depends on a few factors, mainly been:
Server speed, connection speed, cpu processor speed.

And for those wishing to change the refresh rate timer, edit the template "chat_main"
Find:
Change the 8000 to what you want it to be.

Troobleshooting: 8000 = 8 Seconds, Thus 10000 = 10 Seconds.

And new versions will be released when new versions have been completed, thats the best answer i can give to that question =)

Installed, and works fine :D

Good job ;)

One question, since my chat will (probably) be kinda crowded: is there a way to make the admin name both in the chat window and in the user window differently colored?

:)

Great thanks for this hack ! It's really good.
I've just seen a little problem after the installation : the automatic install process doesn't create templates in the other styles than the main one. I did it manualy.
Except this little problem, congratulations ! Just need the possibility to create private rooms and it woud be perfect :-)

Will this ever turn into a flash style chat or a irc style at all? :/

No offence, but its kinda slow atm, still good though

No, this is only php/MySQL driven. And.. what do you mean slow? o.o? Could be your server. Mine works out fine.

No, I mean slow as in it has to refresh each time, its web based ><

snikku, its appears as though you found a fix to the infamous white background issue. What was the key? I tried everything in every template (at least i think) and Im still getting the page bg color. I dont want to change my main css for it will change most of the site.

any help will be appreciated

heh, I just did my own CSS portion on the chat_iframe template. I deleted the $headinclude, and typed in the css coding for text only. Here, gimmie a few and I'll post a txt file.

EDIT: I just copy/pasted my chat_iframe template in a txt file and attached it.

What I did, is I took $headinclude off, and replaced it with my own CSS coding. You can change the link font color, and/or background. Hope it came in handy! ^^

Thank you very much. This was driving me up the wall. I changed a lot of the coding around but never even thought to start over with the css.

You just saved me $5.49 on advil. :o)

Well it took me more than a few ideas and attempts, then I thought "It's the damned CSS." And then viola, I fixed my problem. ^-^

What were you guys trying to do? Change the chat bg color to white?

Can we have an ETA of the next version? Im really looking forward to it ^^

Also heres a few suggestions :D

Smilie Box
PM Box (When you click on their name a small javascript popup appears for pming them :P)
Allow admin to kick a user out of the chat
Rooms can have passwords (If thats not already a standard feature in the next version)
A few IRC commands like /emote and /me :P
Extra formatting controls via commands (also like irc, e.g ctrl+k to change font colour)
User away messages
User auto responders when they get PM'd

Thanks

Smilie Box - I dunno if tha's a good idea, it would take up space. But to make everyone happy, an on/off switch for a smilie box would do fine.

PM Box - You can send private messages by clicking on their names already.

Allow Admin to kick a user out - You can ban individual user or a user group via the admincp.

Rooms having pw's - that could be a good idea.

IRC Commands - the /ignore feature could be an easy short cut. But the /me feature is already there.

Format controls - You can do that under Chat Preference.

User Away Message and auto response - eh, maybe a way to add "|away" or something next to the username like some people do it on IRC.

I would like to see some of these ideas too. Is it possible for it to be done?

I know i know but but when i said a PM box i meant like, a mini chat box just to pm them ;) And quick format controls (I know it can be done in chat preference), but wuick ones are just more convenient

Hopefully within the next few days the next version will be released.

* Smilie Box - I was thinking the same, perhaps just display a random 15 or so in a line below the msg input box, you press them and the code for them gets inserted into the msg box? Sounds good to me =)
* PM Box - Kinda pointless, how about just a link to the PM screen in a new window?
* Admin Abilities, yes i was thinking - /ban [Username] and /unban [Username]
* Yes, members can create rooms and make them pass protected if they wish, inactive rooms are auto deleted after 2 hours, and rooms are controllable in the acp.
* /me is already included, i guess /emote is just the same really, just type "/me is sad" or w/e you desire
* User status is another thing, i was going to get rid of the time/date before the username and add (Status: xxx) (status would be changed in the vB user preferences page)
* User auto responders .. hmm sounds good, perhaps i make it so if you put a private msg to them and they have auto respond on, it auto private msg's them back with the message of there choice?

They all sound like good ideas and will prolly be included in the next version, 1.1.0

- Zero Tolerance

A PM Box would be useful (When i say box i mean window) - so you can keep track of PM's if you ahve many users in that chat at once.

Also, my Users in Chat iframe doesnt have all my users in chat :\

Just installed it on my forum. Looks great! Thanks.

I can't wait to see for next release from Zero Tolerance. Thanks Zero Tolerance for your great work. I will wait for next release.

erm i searched for version 1.0.0... whre is it? or i can just install this one on a clean install ?

You can simply install v1.0.1 fresh :)

- Zero Tolerance

how do i change the defalt text color, i have a dark background on my forum, and I want to change it so the text etc is white so u can red it, and the users in chat name colors are dark too. Thanks

In the middle of the installation, i clicked 'Apply Database Modifications' to go next, but then i had a gateway timeout.. As I know this is nothing serious, so i went back and again clicked 'Apply Database Modifications', but then i got SQL Server errors that the table allready exists(mysql error: Table 'vb3_vbchat_store' already exists & mysql error: Table 'vb3_vbchat_datastore' already exists), so i went back and deleted all tables with the words 'VbChat' in them (vb3_vbchat_store & vb3_vbchat_datastore) BUT then when i try again i get a Collumn error ( mysql error: Duplicate column name 'vbchat_pref_font_face' )........ What can i do to fix this? I did not backup the database before i started the installation (sorry)
