Thanx for that Ramsex :cool:

I have done the following...

Import product-vBChat.xml as a product from admincp - DONE

I found the first part of the file in index.php - DONE

But the second part says to look for something:

while ($loggedin = $db->fetch_array($forumusers))
{
$userid = $loggedin['userid'];
if (!$userid)
{ // Guest
$numberguest++;
$inforum["$loggedin[inforum]"]++;
}
else if (empty($userinfos["$userid"]) OR ($userinfos["$userid"]['lastactivity'] < $loggedin['lastactivity']))
{
$userinfos["$userid"] = $loggedin;
}

if(preg_match("/chat.php/",$loggedin['location']) && $loggedin['userid']){
$vbchat_users[$loggedin['userid']] = $loggedin;

----------------------------

How can I have the line $vbchat_users[$loggedin['userid']] = $loggedin; if I never had vb chat up and running?

I looked for the line and found the first part... but it never mentioned VBChat.

What am I missing?

I'm half way through the install.

There is an error in the second part of the install.txt
Find:
and replace with this:

Eek, well. I've run into a slight few problems. And I don't have alot of free time so I may not be able to "finish" it. But thinking over it...i've rewritten a small portion of it. So i'd rather have ZT's permission anyway (I know, I saw the thread, I know he hasn't been here in a while..but I'd feel better about it if I did). And Milad's port as-is seems to work just fine :)

Thanks... that worked GREAT.

It looks great... it works great... and the members LOVE IT!

Whoa... all of a sudden now when I go to my members page, I get this error...

Warning: mktime() expects parameter 4 to be long, string given in /memberlist.php on line 660

Is this due to the chat? It was working fine until I did this install.

The space bar is acting as an enter key for some people.

They are only able to get in one word at a time.

Anyone else experiencing that?

I may have to unload the script. It appears to be causing problems.

Is three a way to speed up the refresh?

Awesome just installed it on my forums and it seems to work fine. ;) Thank you once again, Milad.

Also I have noticed one thing. Why do you I get a blank popup window when exiting the chat room? This is weird!

i know theres no support for 3.5 but i have a question. When i open its blank and lately my forums have been acting up where some things just wont open. Anyone know why this is? It just goes to a blank page.

Thanks for making the mod Zero, and thanks for the Port Milad :)

Works perfect!

Hm...how could I display the number of users right in the menu ??? say something like this: "vbChat (6)". Some users don't scroll down to the stats to see who's in the chat, this way they would see it right in the navbar. Any help would be appreciated!

If there would be no users in the chat "vbChat (0)" or just "vbChat" would be great. I'm using the ported chat on 3.5

You could do the following:

Open forum/index.php, find
Replace with:
Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> Edit Templates -> Expand All Templates

Open the 'navbar' template, find:
Replace with:
That seems to do it, tested it on mine and works fine :)

Oh, you're the man!!! Thanks a bunch, slight problem though. It doesn't show up in my case. Actually, if it makes any diff, my navigation menu is inside my header template. I added a link like so

It gets me into chat no problems, but I don't see the number of people in the room.

Any pointers ???

Thanks

anyone ???

When I exit chat I get a little window in the upper right hand corner of the screen that contains nothing but a back ground. what is supposed to be displayed in the window?

i am having same issue as chypher

So as I, but have learnt to live with it. But if there is some way of getting rid of it, please do tell.

I found in the chat template:
I commented do_close = 1; and added do_close = 0;
like so:

with, so far, no ill effects to the operations of the chat room to stop that little window from poping-up.

louis-
where exactly do i find this??
having a hard time finding.

thx

I get this error when I tried importing the product.
Database error in vBulletin 3.5.4:

Invalid SQL:
alter table user add vbchat_pref_font_face varchar(255) not null default '',add vbchat_pref_font_color varchar(255) not null default '',add vbchat_pref_user_ignore text not null default '';;

MySQL Error : Duplicate column name 'vbchat_pref_font_face'
Error Number : 1060

This is following the text instructions and I get this error. Does anyone know how I can fix it? I dont even know why its giving this error because font_face is not even duplicating itself anywhere in the xml script.

Seems to be working great for me! Major props! Thanks SO MUCH!

i simply cant find below:

Code:
do_close = 1;
I commented do_close = 1; and added do_close = 0;
like so:

Code:
//do_close = 1;
do_close = 0;
with, so far, no ill effects to the operations of the chat room to stop that little window from poping-up.

I've installed the port to 3.5 and it doesn't seem to work as described for 3.0. It's only been running on our forum this morning, but there seems to be quite a few bugs, and as it seems that the support for this hack is gone, I think it might be safer to try flashchat.

Can you make this part of the premium member package?
I want only the members that have paid for an aupgrade to access the chat room can this be done?

You can set it, such that only specific usergroups have access to it, and you can ban the others.

Thanks----doesn't work if you have VBA CMPS though (well it does for the forum index, but not the CMS index :))

Any suggestions?

everytime i try to install this hack... i cant get past the part of pointing to my install.. its not just with this hack.. its with any hack that calls for this action....
since i am new at this... i figure this hack must not be set up for my version.
3.5.4

Nope, it works fine with 3.5.4

working well for me in 354 as well

i get this error:

Error. vbchat.xml located in directory '' was not found. Please make sure it is uploaded then press the submit button below

Same for me .. any help ?

im so jealous.. i followed the instructions.... to the letter... and when i point to the browser... i get the error

Error. vbchat.xml located in directory '' was not found. Please make sure it is uploaded then press the submit button below

i go to this section on line 149 of install_vbchat.. nothing appears wrong.. this has to be user error.. can someone tell me where i am gong wrong..
vers... 3.5.4

Yep seems like theres a few having that same problem, me too.

Add me to the list. I'm having the same issue as well. I know all files are in the proper place. Checked everything.

anyone have a resolution for this yet?

I located that files its asking for and i put it in the directory, but now it says invalid file or something like that..what should we do??

This is really strange because it is working just perfectly on my forums.

I am using vBulletin Version 3.5.4 and want to use this hac but i am seeing a lot of people having trouble with it. Well since i really need i am going to install it...i would update you all with my progress.
