Thanks for taking the time to post the information. :up:

Hi Paul,

Is there a way to customize this hack to appear between navbar and forum listing and in a height of vBShout box ?

After my host told me to remove Shoutbox and users wanted to chat, I had problems with chat. And this would be great if we can do it.

What I think is a theme exchange. I will put a link on Navbar says "Enable Chat" and when people do it, they will automatically switch to Chat enabled child theme. And a vice versa link in chat enabled theme to disable chat display.

Or a better way you think to code.

Thanks :)

Putting this code at the end of Navbar just works :)

Looks like this integration works smoothly.

Just a question though. Is there any way for the forum skin to be integrated to FlashChat's interface so that it will actually look like part of the site?

Hi Paul. I am running the latest flashchat with your plugin. Thanks!!!

I recently switched to PHP socket server. Now, it seems that users have to log on again when entering the chat. Is this normal?

Yes, that's normal.

Automatic login is not supported in Socket Server mode.

I am not sure what the bold part means in the installation file...

Does this Mod require the use of another Mod?

If so which one?

Oh and what does CMS mean? :/

This mod is Flashchat Integration for vB 3.6 - therefore it requires Flashchat.

CMS is Content Management System - a generic term which in this case means vbulletin.

Here's an odd one. I just upgraded my flashchat, and the newer integration file. Now all of a sudden I have members that can no longer log in, but others that can.

I've done everything from scratch to cover my butt... I delete the flashchat db tables, and installed from scratch. 4.7.6 I believe is the newest version now. I have this integration module uploaded....

Here's the skinny. The users that can NOT log in under their username. If I give them a new username, and password.. somy dummy account to try. They can get in.

I'm stumped.

Sounds like a cookie issue to me, but then I try to delete the cookies.... nothing new happens.

Anyone have any idea? I'm stuck, and don't know where to go.
I would also like to know where to delete the flash preferences that store the information like what color my background should be, etc... but I haven't a clue.

Thanks in advance!

Do you have the vb CMS file specified in flashchat's config.php file.

Found the problem last night, and didn't post that I got it.

Yeah.. the config.php file. I have some members under a different membergroup, and since it was not listed as a group that could gain access in the config.php file as a "user" then they could not log in, and the error message was just "your password or username is invalid".

I'm regretfully a PERL coder, and not php... But it seems that one should have users automatically default to anyone BUT those in the banned group, coppa, etc...

That would solve this issue. Or maybe toss that in the installation file for idiots like me :)

One day I'll learn PHP and how to code for this script. I have a lot to give back to the community... just don't know how yet. I've got this cool youtube clone code I wrote in perl. Someday I'll port it over and give back to the community.

The default is no access, I see no logical reason to change that.

Hello, works on 3.6.3?

Thanks

Yes!

Is there any way to add an option to show the number of people in the chatroom before they enter? Say down by the "Whos Online" or something?

Nevermind....Installed!!! :cool:


I've installed Flashchat in my 3.6.3 site and it's working fine but I cannot find any admin panel anywhere??? What am I missing?

Brian

hi

i am using vB Version: 3.6.3 with latest flash chat software.

i tried to use Flashchat Intefration for VB3.6 but it's not working.

i can't see any "Chat" button on my menu in homepage. when i got to www.mysitename.com/chat/ it's asking me to enter user and pass but when i use my homepage it's auto save then why it's not working in chat?

my url: www.maksazone.com

how to make flash chat button on menu ?

* Authorised members are automatically logged in.

* Flashchat can now be displayed inside a 'standard' vb Page (i.e. not full screen).

??? how to do that? nothing working with me :(

Thanks Paul!

Great hack and greatly appreciated!

please help me :(

You are not showing has having this installed.

i installed it working fine now :)

but one more question

* For Flashchat inside a vb page you need to link to .../misc.php?do=flashchat


how to link www.sitename.com.../misc.php?do=flashchat

in MENU??

What Menu ?

Hi,

I am looking for a Who's Online In Chat addon for flash chat 4.7 upwards that is compatible with VB 3.6.

I had the earlier version for 3.5 but I coudn't log out of flashchat for some reason. So I uninstalled it and reinstalled flash chat. I'm not sure what caused the problem. I thought maybe it was because I was using the 3.5 hack on a 3.6 board.

This integration pluggin seems to do more than just WOL though. Are there any screenshots that we can look at to see what this hack looks like please?

Thanks

Reg

i mean to say top LINKS MENU.

eg: User CP FAQ Members List Calendar Arcade New Posts Search Quick Links Log Out

how to add Chat Button there?

Here's what the control panel is, as well as what my indicator currently looks like...

EDIT: Oops, wrong thread! Deleting screen prints. Sorry Paul.

Hi Adwade,

Thanks for the reply.

So I take it that this hack simply gives us control of Flash Chat from the VB control panel plus a WOL feature?

I was thinking that it opened up the flash chat in vbulletin window.

Cheers

Reg

It does.

Adwade has mistakenly posted screenshots of the 'Who is Chatting' modification.

hi

can i see the shape of this flash chat?:cross-eyed:

can i view the interface of this flash chat ?

I have 2 questions. (stupid ones)
-I've installed that I couldn't understand the different, nothing has been changed. First, I've installed from tifat the flashchat than this add-on but before instaling this one chat was same. What I've done worng?
-Can I change the background of FlashChat? But not for me, I mean I know everbody can arrange own color etc but can I download new backgorund for FlashChat?

(I'm using vbulletin 3.6.3 and I've installed everything in proper way.)

HI THERE I UPLOAD FLASHCHAT
BUT NOW NOTHING IS OPENING
I GET ERROR MSG LIKE THIS

Warning: main(inc/smartyinit.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/.liberty/merapind/mera-pind.com/forums/index.php on line 4

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'inc/smartyinit.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/.liberty/merapind/mera-pind.com/forums/index.php on line 4

Sorry, but I am not Flashchat support.

If you have broken your forum then all I can suggest is you delete flashchat and re-upload your vb files.

i did www.mera-pind.com/chat/install.php

No, I can't help you, please read the post above yours. I am not Flashchat support.

Im installing this on my forum and I have a few questions:

It says I have to Install to forum root folder same as usercp.php. I installed there using WS_ftp to the Now when I go into my forum folder I have another folder chat then I have to open that and that has all the install files and php files associated with Flashchat. Is that where they should be as the instructions say to put them with the usercp.php file???


How I set up WS_FTP

Files
SRC
CHAT
JAVA SOCKET
INSTALL.txt
DOCUMENTATION
ADDENDA.txt

TO
/public_html/forum

and I did upload to server

Now im in server

(file folder) forum

Click on that

(file folder) admincp
(file fol) archive
(file fol) chat
(file fol) client script
and a bunch more
then
the forum .txt and .php folders which also contains usercp.php

Is that where all the files should be??

RON

Its working off what I was doing above.

And I installed the other add-on, Who is using Flashchat

They are both great hacks, thanks

Is there a way of asking a user to come in to chat??

RON

when I try to login after installing this hack I get
"incorrect user name or password",

VB : 3.6.4(manual from 3.6.2)
Fchat : 4.77
Php 5.1.6 with GD etc.
Mysql : 4.x
Apache : 1.3

sorry if the info above is too little or too much just want to be thorough. I went back to standard interface (not through the misc.php) and I still get the error. I asked a few users to check the system ad they cannot login either. I made sure all user groups were accounted for in the cms file, and I checked with multiple users from different user groups none could login. any help appreciated.

At the very least I need a link to your site, also, please read the support note in the main post.

Is there a hack for a paging system to get a user to chat??

The users are leaving this system, and there name is still in the chatroom, is there somthing I have not done correctly. I have the chatroom opening up in a new window, may that have somthing do with it..

They are not logging out correctly, but just closing their browser (and have pop-ups blocked, preventing the alternative logout code running).
