I have exacly the same problema.

Most of my smilies are ok, but some are in red x. :ermm:

What can I do?

I've had a lot of problems with my forum recently (Mainly related to my damn host ?_?) but HURRAH! I finally have vBChat working :D And it's mighty nice too!

There is just one little thing. You know the iFrame where the text appears? Because of the skin I use, the background for the iFrame uses the background for the skin, which is dark and unreadable. Does anyone know where it is that I can change the background colour to white? I'll show a picture of what it is I mean.

I've tried looking around myself, but I honestly don't trust myself to change things, even simple things >_> I've famous for breaking my old forums by trying to 'fix' them ;)

It is 5 hours ago since someone left the chat.It stills says in the chatroom that he is there.People logs out, but it says they are there.It also said that he was in the chat, for about an hour or so after he had left.
What is the problem, can someone help please?

Go to your ACP, and look at the vBChat options, you will see an option to set to yes if your smilies are showing as red-x's, the reason this is optional is because it uses an extra query, therefore - must only be set to yes if the red x's problem occurs to you, if it doesn't this extra query is "un-needed"

can you post a response that referrs to my errors? they're posted above.

Possibly an error with my query to get members online, can't say the query has been changed since i first released this, ill check it out, if it is wrong it will be fixed in v1.1.2

Can someone help me? ;_;

I get a blank screen after installation :S

http://www.footballmanager2005.com/forums/vBChat.php

I made the mistake of upgrading from v1.0.1 to v1.1.1 which obviosly cause a database error......

How can I fix this with out uninstalling the hack?

I am running VB 3.0.3

Installation went extremely well and was easy. My problem - when I click on the chat link I get a blank page. I've checked and rechecked my file changes. Where exactly might my error be?

Look at if the style you use has the vBChat templates. The automatic installation script only installs vBChat templates in your default style.

Looks like a great hack. Is there a way to automatically open and close the chatrooms at specified times during the day? If not, can I suggest this feature be looked at for a future version?

Hmmm. It seems to have not installed the templates. Should I restore the files I deleted and run the installation again?

Never mind. I found them.

Is there an easy way to copy them to my other styles? Or is it cute and paste one by one?

For the blinking problem, ZT, have you considered having a hidden iframe that pulls the data in and then update the actual HTML of the display iframe with JavaScript (.innerHTML). This way the refreshing is done in a hidden frame and the display frame doesn't blink.

Awesome job though :) Thanks!

Anyway the only flaw with the js integration would be if the user doesn't have js turned on. Or there browser is 100% ancient and doesn't support any js.

I think it's a big enough benefit to warrant not catering to Lynx users ;)

Or you can have more than one iframe templates and depending on settings in admincp it will either be the blinking more friendly version, or the non-blinking JavaScript version.

This is simply a brilliant mod. Easy install, great featues and above all works.

Bug report:

A user using Opera has reported that when there are enough messages so that a scrollbar shows up, the scrollbar jumps to the top at every refresh, even if the page is set to have newest messages show up at the bottom.

It looks like the Javascript call of scroll(0,99999999) does not work for Opera.

For some reason, the chat page is a blank screen on some systems and it works on others. Any ideas what might be wrong with the systems that get the white screen?

Thanks

This is what I used for my "chat_iframe" template, as you can see all the different colors can be changed just like HTML. I found this in this thread.
hope this is what your needing.

Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]

<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">

<head>

        <!-- no cache headers -->

        <meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />

        <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1" />

        <meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache" />

<style type="text/css">

body

{

color: #000000;

font: 10pt verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif;

margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;

}

a:link

{

color: #22229C;

}

a:visited

{

color: #22229C;

}

a:hover, a:active

{

color: #FF4400;

}

</style>

</head>

<body bgcolor='#FFFFFF'>

$chat_page

</body>

<if condition="$do_scroll_auto == '1'">

<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

scroll(0,999999999)

-->

</script>

</if>

</html>

The only thing I can think of is.... If others are using a different skin, this may be the problem. the reason I say this is, after I finished installing vbchat, I found some of my skins showed blank in vbchat, I then manually added the new templates, found in my default skin, that where added during the vbchat install.
The install doesn't add templates to skins that are not child skins from the default skin. I hope I'm making sense.LOL

A little question : how to delete private rooms ? After more than 2 hours, they are still alive. Any idea ?

I made the mistake of upgrading from v1.0.1 to v1.1.1 which obviosly cause a database error......

I had the same problem. I uploaded vBChat.php to the forums directory (again) and it worked.

Thank you SOOOOOOOO much, I could kiss you :D :D

I was wondering, cos you such a lovely person, if you would know how to adapt that code for the BV Shoutbox here? > https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...d=1#post574510

Please?

:D

Since I didn't see any code to insert the time when each message was sent, I went ahead and coded it myself.

After:

Code:

if($thisIgnore == 0){

I inserted:

Code:

                                        $time = date("g:ia",

                                                     mktime(date("H",

                                                                 $ThisMSG['s_postime'])-$timediff+$ThisMSG['timezoneoffset'],

                                                            date("i, s, m, d, Y", $ThisMSG['s_postime'])));

I can now use $time in the chat_row and chat_row_special_recieved (sic) templates. $time takes into consideration the current chatter's timezoneoffset setting and the server's timezone setting so that each person should see their own local time when the messages were posted.

Hope that helps!

I now have alternating backgrounds for each message.

Somewhere near the top of chat_iframe, I inserted:

Code:

<if condition="$messagenum = 1"></if>

Then, in chat_row, I replaced:

Code:

<tr>

with

Code:

<tr <if condition="$messagenum%2 == 1">BGCOLOR="#F5F5F5"</if>>

I also inserted into the end of chat_row:

Code:

<if condition="$messagenum++"></if>

Of course you can change #F5F5F5 to whatever color you wish.

Hope that helps!

                                                            date("i, s, m, d, Y", $ThisMSG['s_postime'])));

Where is this portion of code at? I'm unable to find it.

You should be able to find the "if($thisIgnore == 0){" on line 331 of vBChat.php.

I added vbchat to my board, it worked except the smileys, they didn't show in the chat window. I have some other hacks installed but anyway, Resis Is Futile, one of my support members and good scripter had a look at it and tweaked it to make it work. Since it can help some others, I take the freedom to copy his changes here.

"
To make the smilies work I just changed to things. I removed the code in the smilie-bar generating section to make them appear in random order, and added a smilie-parser for the display of messages. I changed these two parts:

PHP Code:


		
			
if($Chat_Options['d_smilequery'] != 1){               // Total Amount Of Smilies               $total = sizeof($smiliecache);               $smilie_select = array();                     for($x=0;$x<$Chat_Options['d_smilieamount'];$x++){                   $smilie_select[] = $smiliecache[rand(1,$total)];                   }               } else {               // Your getting red x's, so instead of using cached data lets query the database               $smilies = $DB_site->query("                   SELECT smilieid, smilietext, smiliepath, smilie.title,                   imagecategory.title AS category                   FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "smilie AS smilie                   LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "imagecategory AS imagecategory USING(imagecategoryid)                   ORDER BY imagecategory.displayorder, smilie.displayorder               ");                   $stotal = 0;                   while($gSmile = $DB->fetch_array($smilies)){                   $allsmilies[] = $gSmile;                   $stotal++;                   }                     for($x=0;$x<$Chat_Options['d_smilieamount'];$x++){                   $smilie_select[] = $allsmilies[rand(1,$stotal)];                   }

PHP Code:


		
			
if($Chat_Options['d_smilequery'] != 1){               // Total Amount Of Smilies               $total = sizeof($smiliecache);               $smilie_select = array();                     for($x=0;$x<$Chat_Options['d_smilieamount'];$x++){                   $smilie_select[] = $smiliecache[$x];                   }               } else {               // Your getting red x's, so instead of using cached data lets query the database               $smilies = $DB_site->query("                   SELECT smilieid, smilietext, smiliepath, smilie.title,                   imagecategory.title AS category                   FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "smilie AS smilie                   LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "imagecategory AS imagecategory USING(imagecategoryid)                   ORDER BY imagecategory.displayorder, smilie.displayorder               ");                   $stotal = 0;                   while($gSmile = $DB->fetch_array($smilies)){                   $allsmilies[] = $gSmile;                   $stotal++;                   }                     for($x=0;$x<$Chat_Options['d_smilieamount'];$x++){                   $smilie_select[] = $allsmilies[$x];                   }

and

PHP Code:


		
			
if($Chat_Options['d_allowbbcode'] == "yes"){                   // URL Parse Then BBCode Parse?                   $ThisMSG['s_message'] = convert_url_to_bbcode($ThisMSG['s_message']);                   $ThisMSG['s_message'] = parse_bbcode($ThisMSG['s_message'], 'nonforum');                   } else {                   $ThisMSG['s_message'] = htmlspecialchars_uni($ThisMSG['s_message']);                   }                              // Check Status                          if($ThisMSG['vbchat_pref_status'] == ""){                   $ThisMSG['vbchat_pref_status'] = "<i>None</i>";                   }

PHP Code:


		
			
if($Chat_Options['d_allowbbcode'] == "yes"){                   // URL Parse Then BBCode Parse?                   $ThisMSG['s_message'] = convert_url_to_bbcode($ThisMSG['s_message']);                   $ThisMSG['s_message'] = parse_bbcode($ThisMSG['s_message'], 'nonforum');                   } else {                   $ThisMSG['s_message'] = htmlspecialchars_uni($ThisMSG['s_message']);                   }                                      if($Chat_Options['d_smiliedisplay'] == 1){                       // Your getting red x's, so instead of using cached data lets query the database                       $smilies = $DB_site->query("                           SELECT smilieid, smilietext, smiliepath, smilie.title,                           imagecategory.title AS category                           FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "smilie AS smilie                           LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "imagecategory AS imagecategory USING(imagecategoryid)                           ORDER BY imagecategory.displayorder, smilie.displayorder                       ");                       while($smiliegot = $DB->fetch_array($smilies)){                           $ThisMSG['s_message'] = str_replace($smiliegot['smilietext'], "<img src='{$smiliegot['smiliepath']}' alt='{$smiliegot['title']}' />", $ThisMSG['s_message']);                       }                   }                              // Check Status                          if($ThisMSG['vbchat_pref_status'] == ""){                   $ThisMSG['vbchat_pref_status'] = "<i>None</i>";                   }

Once again thanks Resis and I hope this can help others that have the same problem

I want to use the chat only for my moderators. So I don't want vBChat to display in the navbar or at the bottom where it displays: Users Currently Inside vBChat

How can I hide these from other usergroups?

Ehm, I put all the files where the readmefile told to. Now i have this error:

Quote:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: xml_parser_create() in /usr/home/*********/www/********/admincp/install_vbchat.php on line 31

Help??
