- - DigiChat Integration V2.0 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=64367)

Hello yeloc,

the whole confusion is due to not having read the explanation in the chatconfig.php file. I think i will go and put this into the database. So everyone can see the config settings and edit them via the admincp. Otherwise people will not recognize them like you did.

Ok. My hack just goes with the default groups. If you wish any other groups to enter the chat you have to tell this to chatconfig.php file ( i prefer to decline/restrict access rather then doing it like microsoft to open everything for everyone ).

Here is the part of the chatconfig.php file which is important for your problem:

PHP Code:


		
			
      # You want to allow Guest Access to the DigiChat

      # Yes = 1, No = 0

      # Only for non-logged-in Users. Proofing mechanism is the cookie

      $CHAT_AUTH_GUEST         = 1;



      # You want to exclude a usergroup from access to DigiChat.

      # Please specify VBulletin UsergroupID from ACP

      $CHAT_AUTH_NOACCESS      = array(3,4,8);



      # Please specify which VBulletin UsergroupIDs should have access to DigiChat

      $CHAT_AUTH_ACCESS        = array(2,5,6,7);



      # Please specify which UsergroupIds have Chatmaster or Admin priviliges for DigiChat

      # They will get the CM Applet for login in addition to the standard login

      $CHAT_AUTH_ADMINACCESS   = array(6);

Please read this carefully and you should understand how this works.

And now let's talk about the double creation of usernames for DigiChat:

DigiChat wants to prevent users taking the nickname of Chatmaster Accounts. Due to this they have ONE and only ONE guest account. All members connect to the chat with the guest account via the drop-down menu.

Every other user who wants to enter the chat with the status Chatmaster/Admin ( blue color in Chat ) has to use the CM/Admin Login on the right side.

To solve your admin login problem just do the following:
- log into the chat with the "chatmaster" account
- create a new chatmaster/admin account in DigiChat with YOUR forum username+(CM) at the end. So for example: Forum Username = Hugo , then your DigiChat Account should be = Hugo(CM)

If you have done this you will be able to login into the chat from the right admin login. The same applies for all your chatmasters.

The reason for this is very obvious. If DigiChat blocks names and you would create a DigiChat Chatmaster Account with the name Hugo, you will not be able to log into the chat as a normal user from the left drop-down menu because DigiChat would block this login. The name Hugo would be reserved for your chatmaster. That's why i added the (CM) at the end of each name.

If you wish you can change this (CM) to whatever you want but the names from your members in DigiChat and in your forum HAVE to differ in some way.

Hope this helps now.

Cheers,

Well, everything is working perfectly now!!! I remember reading about the usergroups in the "chatconfig.php" file, but I forgot all about it. The problem with my account was that I changed the user name to yeloccm instead of yeloc(cm) I didn't know the brackets mattered. Now I need to do 2 more things and that's to see if I can connect through the proxy from work and move the chat server to another machine. Great job on this hack Bud!!! Totally amazing hack. I would vote for hack of the month, but I don't see many people using this program because of the price, so it will never be truely appreciated :(

And you are right about the price and due to this not many people will use this hack. Regardless of this i am happy to help my small client group and i can give a better and more detailed support. ;)

If you need any more help just tell me and if you have any suggestions to improve this hack, i am more then happy to hear about it.

Cheers,

On the long term i will upgrade to 5.0 with Video/Sound but not to get the messanger. At the moment they only offer this in an enterprise version which is way out of pricing for low-end or midrange communities. They will offer this for sure in the next months for the midrange communities for a better price.

I upgraded to DigiChat 4.0 end of Q3 last year and now i upgrade VB to 3.0.0. The next step will be DigiChat 5.0 end of Q3 or Q4. And i will provide another update for my integration.

Cheers,

Pseudomizer, I registered on your site and then tried to connect to your chat. I launched and got the small java window with says "Verbinden". It just sat there.

I do have digi-chat now installed on www.NoBlood.org. Still some tweeking yet to do.

By the way, the link to linktoemoticons.html in your templates point to your site. Would you be so kind to share your copy of linktoemoticons.html? :)

But my chat is up and running. It takes about 1 or 2 min to load the applet depending on how many usericons, backgrounds and emoticons you have.
You should be able to connect. Please check again. If it does not work please try the extra login.

Sorry for the link to my emoticons. I forgot to remove it. This is just a link which is implemented in the chat windows in the upper left menu. It is a static html site which i created with the link to the emoticons and the corresponding shortcuts for each emoticon. You would like to have the HTML code ? This will not help you at all because you have to create your own emoticons and your own shortcuts in DigiChat and then create the site which explains which shortcut brings out which emoticon. But if you want to have it, you can get it.

I just checked out your site. I tried the chat.php and i got the welcome unregistered message which should NOT appear. It should logon with a random username. As it looks like you did some modifications. In addition to this i was not able to log into your chat. The javascript pop-up did not work. There seems to be a conflict with your javascript and my pop-up javascripts.

I tried to use the extra login on your site which does not use the javascript but it did reject my login with the error message that i did not provide a username.

What did you do please ?

Cheers,

I would love to explore this with you further right now, but I have to go now. I thought I'd do a quick install for now. I know there are some further 'issues' to iron out. Have tried to install Skype yet? If you do, add me to your contact list (larryeitel). Next time I see you on, we can 'voice' chat further about this.

I also want to read the Digi-Chat docs as well.

Thanks for your excellent hack. I made great progress so far. :)

Currently i have no time to install other applications due to my hack releases and implementations. In addition to this i have to reconfigure my firewall for Skype. I will do it but i think sometime next week.

Cheers,

Well I thought I had it going but discovered that it only works at this point for admins. Not that there is something wrong with this hack. This is so that anyone from here that goes to www.NoBlood.org at this point to try it will find nothing. --Stay tuned.

Cheers,

Well I can't get through the firewall here at work. I guess I'll have to go home and try some different ports. What file do you set the port again?
