Hi Paul,

I have installed FlashChat together with your hack and it is working fine.

However, i cannot find any option in my ACP to set each usergroup access to chat.

Thank you in advance for your help!

It's part of the permission settings for each usergroup (as it says - in the usergroup manager).

any screen shots????

1. There is no option for that, I believe you would need to edit a Flashchat file.
2. What do you want to edit, and why ?

As I said, there has never been such a feature in any of my modifications. I can't help you with changes others may have made locally on their forums. You will need to ask them.


No.

Yes, i have searched he permission settings for each usergroup, i go to:

- Usergroup manager

--> then all my groups are listed, each of them has the options:

- Edit Usergroup
- Edit Promotions
- Show All Primary Users
- Show All Additional Users
- View Reputations

Then i select one of my groups (for example: registered), and i see a screen with these sections:

Usergroup
Forum Viewing Permissions
Forum Searching Permissions
Post / Thread Permissions
Attachment Permissions
Poll Permissions
Private Message Permissions
Calendar Permissions
Who's Online Permissions
Administrator Permissions
General Permissions
User Note Permissions
Picture Uploading Permissions
Signature Permissions
User Reputation Permissions
User Infraction Permissions
Usergroup Options

I am running vBulletin 3.6.5 , and FlashChat Integration 3.51

I have searched through all the users options but cannot find any of them related to chat permissions :(

Aah!! Now i understand! The problem was that i had uploaded bitfield_flashchat.xml to an incorrect folder.

Now the option FlashChat Permissions can be viewed. :)

Do I need to install 3.5 then upgrade with this? OR is this the complete script?
Nevermind I see flashchat is a whole different script/software.

Some members have requested the chat be opened in a new window that is not embedded in the forum.

Then as I said earlier, you need to manually add the link in your templates, not use the auto option.

since integration, a custom usergroup hasnt been able to enter the chat, ive searched the FlashChat support forum and found posts saying to edit the vB CMT file which i now understand how to and what im looking to do, but which file do i edit?!
