Installed it and it appears to be working fine. Looks great... any plans on adding a "who's in" feature?

Yes. Just have been very busy :)

Hey Zachery, thanks for adapting this for 3.5.x

Quick question though. Anyone using IE...shows up as a "Guest" in IRC. If Firefox is used...they are logged in with their username.

Any ideas on what that might be.

Also, about half of my users get this error:
"start up error: java.lang.IllegalAccesError:irc/security/prv/specificMSSsecuredProvider"

I think we managed to deduce that it is the Java plugin causing that issue, as I had someone install Firefox...and by doing so the newest Java install...and it worked fine for them after that. Just wanted your 2 cents though.

Thanks!

i believe thats because they didnt accept the java popup

Is it possible to restrict this to members only?

I suppose you can do that already.

A+++ worked like a charm!!!

I would also like to know about the 'members only' -- I didn't see an option for it. Anyone know?

ANy full release in sight?

works for me , nice feature to add to a board.

though 1 thing i do have
once i have the code added in my navbar template
my forums get a bit wider in some areas
and i cant seem to figure out why the code does it since there is nothing that points to that

and is there a log created on the server ?
if so anyway to avoid this ?

I?m really interested in this feature. Is already possible?

Thanks, Simon.

I have followed the instructions and I gte this error when trying to connect

Any idea's this is both using my Admin accoung and a Test account.

any plans to update this?

Sounds like an issue on your end, check your firewall.

Right now its working, and I've been direly busy. But yes, soonish.

works perfect :D

Is it possible to make this members only?

can i have this in a different folder other than /chat/ ? id prefer it to be in /irc/

how can i change the colors and design of the applet? what would i edit?

Yes,

as far as the appelt, go check pjirc.com for info on changing the apperance.

*installs* - look forard to updates

mmmm works in firefox but not ie6 for me - weird ?

zachery ive checked out the site and found some info on changing the appearance. but it looks like whatever index.php is loading is some creation stuff that i need to change within these files. i want my colors to be changed to something else so i have to edit one of your files i guess to make that happen.

if i overwrite your index.php with what im being told to do, it wont be integrated with the forum and the users connecting using the cookie and all that.

what needs to be altered if i want to edit the colors?

i need to get this code in there somehow:

<param name="righttoleft" value="false">
<param name="pixx:color0" value="#CF0202">
<param name="pixx:color1" value="#CF0202">

edit chat/inc/pjirc.cht

Considering this is all PHP language and I don't seen anywhere how vB altered database communications, is it possible to use this version with a 3.0.x verion of vB? Seems plausible. Anyone advise me? I wanna ask before I attempt.

Its using 3.5 varible,s you'd need to do some work on it.

Ditto!

Are you sure you are not just logged in on firefox and not in IE.

So far I have been using the PJIRC integration on our forum and I'm waiting to switch to this one as soon as the 'Who's Chatting' feature is added. This is a key feature our users are looking for at the moment and they keep complaining about not knowing if people are in there without connecting. When can we expect this to be added? All I see is 'I've been busy' and I understand that, but please at least give us an estimate. Thanks.

For those saying that they're waiting for the "Who's Online to be added", I just went and used the IRC Manager version 2 (running a 3.5.4 vb) and it worked fine. Definitely something to keep in mind while waiting.

Awesome mod, Zachery. Thanks so much.

I posted some about this in the original vBXirc thread, but I don't think it's looked at much so I'll post here. My members are getting strange connection errors. Not all, just some. Most common it seems is:

What causes that null just for some people?

Are they behind a firewall of anysort? Any type of port filtering? Do they have a recent version of java installed?

No firewalls. Standard user errors. I mean, who knows if they have the latest java environment installed? Most of the time when a java app is presented on the web and is more advanced than the current java environment installed, it prompts to update.

Anyhow, this is just one of many constant and random errors some members are getting. I'll check out the port filtering from the null folks. That just may be it. I've seen some really wacky stuff. Unable to Connect: Erroneous nick. I think that one is the strangest. I've logged in as the member and didn't have a problem. Everytime that member logs in he gets that erroneous error. He has to log out of the site and hit the chat as a guest and go from there. I absolutely know it's not an IRC issue.

Weird stuff, my man. Weird stuff.

Does this work on 3.6? Any chance it will be ported if not?

Unable to Connect: Erroneous nick means that there is something wrong witht their username. What network are you trying to connect to. and what is his username.

No updates yet? :p

AFAIK, Some IRC servers don't allow you to connect using "usernames" with capital letters in.

Great Add-On.
Will you bring it for 3.6 when the gold version is released?

Really? thats a new one to me...

I can do another more agressive filter or add an option.

So before I try to install this will it be portable to 3.6 and do I need pjirc as well? I've read through this but I'm confused. I'm not sure where to start

I have not tried this hack since I use to use it prior to 3.0.0

I finally decided to put it back in on my vB 3.5 version.

But I am getting the following error when trying to open a chat:

Connecting...
Unable to connect : com.ms.security.SecurityExceptionEx : cannot connect to "irc.slashnet.org"

Does this have something to do with my IRC Server? I have it set in my admincp to irc.slashnet.org. This is the one I use to use before.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
