I've gotten FlashChat and the integration with vB3.5 installed and working. This seems like a great program and the integration went very smooth. I did have some trouble following the instructions as most of FlashChat's directions were for older versions of vB but finally got on the right path.

Thanks very much for this mod!

Was just about to install this hack with 4.33 when i saw that 4.40 beta is out...and they added the hacked CMS and made it install with vB3.5 automatically. :)

One thing i was wondering, i'd like to get it setup so that those logged into the forum get auto login (like it is now) but that unregistered users can still enter the chatroom as a guest (eg. Guest001)...is that possible to do by modifying the CMS yet again?

I know that i could have it not linked to the forum, but if it would be possible to do it the above way that would be even better!

ok, I think there is something wrong here. I completly wiped everything out and uploaded a fresh Flashchat 4.3.3 and then over wrote the file with the edited files that are provided here and when I install the flashchat, even if I remove all the "stock" chatroom names during the install they are still there when the install is done and flashchat_users never is created in the database. I even tried editing the consts.php file and moving "user" to the top of the list and it still doesn't add it. Here is what I tried:

PHP Code:


		
			
//Create DB tables
$db_tables = array(
"users"     => "CREATE TABLE {dbpref}users (id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, login varchar(200) NOT NULL default '', password varchar(32) NOT NULL default '', roles int(11) NOT NULL default '0', profile TEXT default NULL, INDEX(login), PRIMARY KEY (id))",
"bans"        => "CREATE TABLE {dbpref}bans (created timestamp(14) NOT NULL, userid int(11) default NULL, banneduserid int(11) default NULL, roomid int(11) default NULL, ip varchar(16) default NULL, INDEX(userid), INDEX(created))",
"connections" => "CREATE TABLE {dbpref}connections (id varchar(32) NOT NULL default '', updated timestamp(14) NOT NULL, created timestamp(14) NOT NULL, userid int(11) default NULL, roomid int(11) default NULL, state tinyint(4) NOT NULL default '1', color int(11) default NULL, start int(11) default NULL, lang char(2) default NULL, ip varchar(16) default NULL, tzoffset int(11) default 0, INDEX(userid), INDEX(roomid), INDEX(updated), PRIMARY KEY (id))",
"ignors"     => "CREATE TABLE {dbpref}ignors (created timestamp(14) NOT NULL, userid int(11) default NULL, ignoreduserid int(11) default NULL, INDEX(userid), INDEX(ignoreduserid), INDEX(created))",
"messages"    => "CREATE TABLE {dbpref}messages (id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, created timestamp(14) NOT NULL, toconnid varchar(32) default NULL, touserid int(11) default NULL, toroomid int(11) default NULL, command varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', userid int(11) default NULL, roomid int(11) default NULL, txt text, INDEX(touserid), INDEX(toroomid), INDEX(toconnid), INDEX(created), PRIMARY KEY (id))",
"rooms"     => "CREATE TABLE {dbpref}rooms (id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, updated timestamp(14) NOT NULL, created timestamp(14) NOT NULL, name varchar(64) NOT NULL default '', password varchar(32) NOT NULL default '', ispublic char(1) default NULL, ispermanent int(11) default NULL, INDEX(name), INDEX(ispublic), INDEX(ispermanent), INDEX(updated), PRIMARY KEY (id))",
//users to do
);

I'm assuming without the users table it won't auto-login.

I'm alil lost on this one. I'm using PHP version 4.3.11 and MySQL version 4.0.25-standard, if that helps any.

I had to re-install vBulletin v3.5 Gold and the Flashchat intergration somewhere in the process I either forgot something or did something wrong. I can't get the Who's Online box to show up on the bottom of the page. Chat works great.

Smack me in the back of the head.... :o

I am still stuck. I installed a couple of new styles and the Who's Online isn't visiable. How do I do that.

While that is true, the CMS file supplied with 4.4.0 is an old version. Also, even with the latest CMS, without the edits to senlogininfo.php, usergroup banning will not work.

I'm not sure how that would work, I am sure it would create a lot of problems.

You are assuming incorrectly. When integrated, it uses vbulletins user table, so doesn't need it's own.

Hi,

I'm a bit confused :nervous:

I've installed Flashchat, works great.
I've installed Paul's VB integration, seems to work fine - only registered users can log into Flashchat.
I've installed Paul's Who's Chatting, works fantastic :banana:

When it's integrated should a link to the chat page appear anywhere on the forum home page or do I have to put this in manually?

Thanks for any advice :)

Manually, usually in the navbar.

Edit the forumhome template as per the instructions in the who's chatting hack.

Cheers, Paul, and thanks for the great integration :)

I'm a bit new to VBulletin so I'll need to have a quick root around the forum to find out how to do this :nervous:

I have installed the FlashChat with integration into vB as well as the whose in the chat room stuff. Everything works great.

One thing though, I cannot seem to find a way to remove some of the FlashChat rooms.

I can't find anything in the vB control panels. Loading the admin.php supplied by FlashChat into my browser displays a blank page.

I've been able to customize lots of the vB stuff and the FlashChat stuff but cannot find a way to remove rooms.

Should I be looking at the vB control panel for admin functions for FlashChat? It doesn't show up in the Manage Product panels, only the Who's in FlashChat program does.

I would like to be able to remove all but the first room and then change that room's name to something like Live Chat.

If you get a blank page, Press F5 (Refresh the page). This is a known "feature" of the Flashchat admin area.

10-19-2005 07:44 PM

I tried the refresh but it doesn't help

Should I be using FlashChat admin or vBulletin control panel to administrate FlashChat's rooms?

Flashchat, there is no flashchat admin facility in the ACP.

The supplied CMS file assumes that you are installing Flashchat in your forums root folder - this is the same folder as your usercp.php file and includes folder. Installation will fail if you do not do this.

Excuse my question... How can i install the flash chat into my forums home? I have 2 files index.php and 2 files profile.php (1=forum, 1=chat).

Or do i have to install it to /forums/CHAT ?

dgallek

10-20-2005 12:46 PM

Thanks Paul, now I know that I really need to look a FlashChat to get the Admin up and running. Appreciate your help!

As to Wachtmeister's question, if your website forum is:
www.yoursite.com/forum

then your chat files need to be in:
www.yoursite.com/forum/chat

Hope that helps!

Paul, is this mod the same as the one that's done via the installation process or seperate?

Have installed the chat and used the instructions on tufat.com as opposed to this - if they're the same, I'll still hit the installed link!

No. It relies on flashchat being in the same database.

Hey Paul - thank you so much for this! You are a star mate. I just installed Flashchat 4.4.0 and i see they included your stuff in their install files.

It worked a charm!

Top man!

Yes, I see v2.47 is included. There is actually a very minor error in that, which is why 2.48 is the latest. I also have a new (unreleased) version specifically for the 4.4.0 beta, which includes the new Moderator role added to flashchat.

Sorry if this should be clear, but I seem to be missing it.

how do I include a link to the chat on my forums navigation bar? I'm sure this should be simple, I just don't know how to do it.

Thanks

The only things not included are the language file update and the plugin for the WOL display. Also, at this moment in time, the CMS file here is slightly more recent (2.51) as opposed to 2.47. The difference is a minor bug fix and ROLE_MODERATOR support.

I will be updating this thread for pre/post 4.4.1 versions shortly.

Well not unless you give more detail in the first place.

After installing this my forum is acting up. It seems everypage works except for the forum display page. You can read threads, read the forums if you have the direct link but if you go to www.mywasteoftime.net and click on forums it gives you a blank page.

.Tim	10-23-2005 06:15 PM

I don't know, it was working fine before I updated the flashchat software to 4.4.1 but I guess that's possible. I'm just happy it's working and only took a couple minutes to figure out! :D
