phpMyChat Integration

This hack will add integrate vBulletin with phpMyChat. It uses some small (but effective) security measures to prevent users from using any username but their own.

++ To Do:
vBulletin files to edit: 0
phpMyChat files to edit: 1 (you must also install phpMyChat)
Queries to Run: 0
Templates to add: 0
Templates to modify: 2
Time to install: 10 Minutes

++ Known Issues
Users with a space in their name can not chat
Username can be bypassed

Enjoy! :squareeyed:

most of my users has usernames that has a <space> in them... can anyone resolve this problem? or are there free chat programmes that can allow the <spaces>?

I installed phpMyChat..the latest version.
Modified the portion that goes into the header to look like:

PHP Code:


		
			
function my_chatwin()
{
var tmpName = replace('$bbuserinfo[username]',' ','_');
tmpName = replace(tmpName,',','');
window.open('/chat/index.php3?L=english&Ver=H&U='+tmpName+'&R=Home&T=1&D=10&N=20&ST=1&NT=1&First=1','mychatwindow','width=700,height=600,toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,copyhistory=no,resizable=yes');
}
function replace(string,text,by) {
    var strLength = string.length, txtLength = text.length;
    if ((strLength == 0) || (txtLength == 0)) return string;
    var i = string.indexOf(text);
    if ((!i) && (text != string.substring(0,txtLength))) return string;
    if (i == -1) return string;
    var newstr = string.substring(0,i) + by;
    if (i+txtLength < strLength)
        newstr += replace(string.substring(i+txtLength,strLength),text,by);
    return newstr;
}
//--> 
</SCRIPT>

works great...
resolves the space issue...
just need to modify the exit button to close the window instead of going to chat index.

Hey Oxygen, do you have this running on RC3?

Oxygen

01-23-2004 11:45 AM

No, just RC2 - I did not even see that 3 was out yet.
Man they are fast.
although there is no reason for it not to work in RC3.

I'd like to know what you find out. I want to install this hack in the near future.

I installed this hack today and was having trouble with it the way that it was, once I put in the codes that Oxygen had also posted, it worked just fine.

Smitty

Thanks! I might even take a look at trying it on my test board tonight or tomorrow.

Where did you put the chat directory? In the forum directory? It says 1 level below the vB directory...

On my test board I'm getting a 404 when I hit the 'chat' link in the navbar.

EDIT: Ok - I put it outside the vB directory in the main htdocs directory and it finds the index.php3 file OK and opens the window. But - once it said: "You must enter a user name" and then when I tried it again it said: "You must be registered before chatting.".

Hmmmm, any ideas anyone?

EDIT #2: Solved. I had phpMyChat configured to require a password...

In config.lib.php3:

PHP Code:


		
			
define("C_REQUIRE_REGISTER", '1');



should have been



define("C_REQUIRE_REGISTER", '0');

Did you by chance figure out how to do this?

I can't get this to work. The first time the chat window comes up everything is fine, after that I get the message "This username is already in use. Please chose another." until I clear out the chat_user table.

has phpMyChat ever been upgraded or is it still the old one? every one could hack it, don't use it, it's dangerous ... really on Apache

I am having the same trouble, keeps telling me You must choose a user name. Does this work with v.3? I tried it with the registration variable at 0 first (no reg needed) and then put it back to the original (1) setting... no luck at all either way... I was really hoping this would work, anyone have more hints, please?

Thanx

you might want to change the erasing of Users in the config.lib.php3

Before:

PHP Code:


		
			
// Cleaning settings for messages and usernames
define("C_MSG_DEL", '96');
define("C_USR_DEL", '4');
define("C_REG_DEL", '0');

change it to this

PHP Code:


		
			
// Cleaning settings for messages and usernames
define("C_MSG_DEL", '96');
define("C_USR_DEL", '1');
define("C_REG_DEL", '0');

this would automatically delete users names after 1 minute.

look for this:

PHP Code:


		
			
// Proposed rooms
$DefaultChatRooms = ('ROOM NAME');
$DefaultPrivateRooms = array('Priv1', 'Priv2');

change the $DefaultChatRooms = ('ROOM NAME');

to

PHP Code:


		
			
// Proposed rooms
$DefaultChatRooms = ('');
$DefaultPrivateRooms = array('Priv1', 'Priv2');

that would make no room show up in the room name line... that would just make the user press Chat to go in and wallah

Wish I could get this working, it installed fine but all I get is the message "To create your own room you must be registered" when I try and login, made all the changes you suggested in the above thread!

Any ideas please?
