also it may be nice to make a modual with the main chat room in it for the home page

Anyway to kick auto-kick idle users, since it refreshes every x ammount of seconds, it keeps them as 'online' in the current minute. Probably bad for bandwidth & is a pain.

Also, anyway around the bug relating to the # of users online?

Very sweet addition! Got one question though. At the end of the instructions, there is this last thing to do:


Go to your Admin CP, then go to the following area:
Scheduled Tasks -> Add New Scheduled Task

Fill in the form as follows:
Title: vBChat Auto Prune
Day of the Week: *
Day of the Month: *
Hour: 0
Minute: 2
Log Entries: Yes
Filename: ./includes/cron/vbchat.php

Well, I don't have this setting to choose from in my admincp....what to do?

ok, does the above info mean that this needs to run every 2 minutes every day of the week every month of the year? I can use wget and windows task manager until I find a fix for this issue...anyone else using this to run maintanence?

I made the mistake of attempting to upgrade from 1.0.0 to 1.1.1 using the upgrade script (1.1.0-1.1.1). I did not seem to have a problem when running the install script even though it was obviously it is the wrong script. Anyway, when I update my "vBChat Options" I get the following database error:

Ideas?

The bug on the forum home showing who's online is really bugging me (shows I am only one online, when there are others online). Any way to fix this?

I just installed this and although a room is created when I enter one, i'm never forwarded on to the next page or given a confirmation. It looks like it takes, and i can even join the room - but even on the join room page, when i select the room and click to get there, the page still never refreshes. Is anyone else seeing this? It looks like all my templates are there - what gives?

Is there a way to turn that clicking refresh of the page sound of from IE globally (like so all my users don't have to mess with their audio settings?)

this is a great mod - thanks. my only suggestions would've been to add a global phrase for vbchat so the word 'vBchat' could be changed throughout the navigation and chat pages and maybe provide a little more control on where the smilies are coming from. I have some smilies that are really tall (like a BS Flag) and when those happen to show themselves, the chat window is pretty much one line. Where is it pulling the default smilies from? is there a way to control this?
how about an uninstall script (for those like me, that tried to modify some stuff and didn't know what they were doing....) actually - after editing some of this, it would be really handy if there was an uninstall script or someone could just tell me how to do it manually. I shudder at the thought of messing with mySQL tables knowing what I did the last time. OOOPSIES.

Thanks for an awesome mod, however - really cool.

There is a security hole in this hack!
If a person logs into your forum, enters the chatroom, then logs off, then clicks their back button they can post in the chatroom and it doesn't show a member/user name. If you refresh the screen then you see the No Guest Access message.

oh man, better contact macafee (sorry, just kidding....)

About the blinking/refresh thing. I ran PHPMyChat for a while, and as far as I can tell, theat uses a similar refresh system, but it doesnt blink. Anyone know how they got round the issue?
