2 Paul M: Hups, srry, my bad .. :D ... thx ;)

In case anyone is still looking for this, Paul has already provided enough info in the past posts to make it work in vba module. I just finally read through the entire thread and got it working. The key here is to change the plugin from "forum_home_start to global_start, then either create a new who's in chat module and place the variables $totalchatters and $chatters, or place the two variables where ever you want it. I'm assuming this will add 1 or 2 more queries.

Please help me :(

I have installed this mod but the homepage of my forum is blank.

I have installed "FlashChat Integration" too, the chat works fine, but this mod doesn't work.

Same here. Got the blank forum page when I installed this and had to disable it.

A blank page means you have php error messages disabled, enable them and see what actual error you get.

How do you do that?

How i can enable them?

Add this to the top of your config.php ;

Version 4.40 is simply a move of the Auto-template options from a shared group to this modifications own options group. There is no need to update.

Great MOD.

The one problem that I am having is that some usergroups are not seeing the MOD. These are custom groups. I doube-checked and all the who's online items are set to yes.

Any suggestions on how to make these usergroups see who is online? Or....how do I remove the function so that everyone in every group can see?

Thanks much in advance!

Installed and working well thanks :)

Quick question,

If you click on the image on the left side of the who's chatting box it will open flashchat in the same window and when you logout you no longer return to the forums.

How would I make that open flashchat in a new window?

Tmod

Edit the template to add a target="_blank" to the link html.

That worked well!!

Thanks Paul!

Tmod

I wish to make this change too, could you please be more specific on where target="_blank" should be added.

Thanks for a great Mod!

Paul,

In the admin cp there is

Auto-Template Changes : Who is in Flashchat

and

Auto-Template Search Text : Who is in Flashchat

What do these actually mean, and do?

I cant figure out what they are suppose to do.

Doug

Read the description for each option.

I DID.

Doug

The descriptions tell you what they do. There is nothing more to add without big long explanations, which I'm not prepared to do, 99% of people don't need to worry about them, or change them. :)

Paul,

Im just not understanding what templates these two features are changing or what it looks like when 'it' gets changed. What templates are being changed, when and why?

Also what is being changed as far as looks, any Screen shots?

If this has to do with the "Who's in the chat room" thing down in the "Whats going on", I have manually changed what it says, so im not sure if these features would be changing that template or not. this is mainly why im wanting to know the answers to the above questions, because i am thinking that they have something to do with the "who's in the chat room" stats.

Doug

Thank you for a great mod....

I get this message after I install this mod:

Warning: Unknown(/var/www/html/sdtechdforum/chat/inc/config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /index.php(63) : eval()'d code on line 6

Fatal error: (null)(): Failed opening required '/var/www/html/sdtechdforum/chat/inc/config.php' (include_path='.:/php/includes:/usr/share/php') in /var/www/html/sdtechdforum/index.php(63) : eval()'d code on line 6

What does this mean?

It means either you don't have Flashchat installed, or it's not in the standard location.

It is in the standard location but the folder name is not "chat". Can I define the folder name so it has the correct path?

EDIT: Nevermind. I answered my own question. YES, you can define the folder name. Its working great. Thanks!

The folder name is a setting in the vboptions associated with this mod.

i know this is weird, but it's showing wrong users only the admin(user id 1) is correct in the connected list.

Then you are not correctly integrated with VB (I'm guessing you also have to login to Flashchat, if you were correctly integrated you would login automatically).

you were right, working now, thx

neat, thanks.

Hello, where can i change the value to set a french text ?

Regards!

Edit the phrase (using_flashchat)

Has anyone figure out how to move this up to the top of the page like where the user information is instead of at the bottom?

Chris

Ok, I got it to put the who's online up top, but it only works on the main page. Anyone have any ideas on how to get it to work at the top of every page?

I've installed 4.4 and the mod that moves it, but it doesn't appear to work. Has anyone fixed this yet?

Chris

Hello. Just wanted to shoot you a quick question to pick your brain.

I installed the hack listed in the subject line a few days ago and I notice it does not accurately say who is in the chat room. The names it shows are User ID's 11 and 16. The members that were actually in the forum were user ID's 50 and 69. (It showed the names, but for all purposes, you get the point.)

Any ideas here?

Thanks!
Matt

You have not integrated Flashchat with vbulletin correctly.

Great. Thanks for this.
One question, is it possible to not have anything show up if no one is in?
My chat isn't going to be used that much, so I think it would be much cleaner for the board if there was nothing there if no one was there, and it only shows up if someone is actually in chat. Easy to edit?

You could edit the Display_Chatters template - add a conditional around the whole template checking if $totalchatters > 0

Can you break that down even simpler for me? :(

Installed.

Nice job :)
