Flashchat: Who is chatting
 

This is a simple ForumHome display of who is currently using your Flashchat.

Version 2.20 is for use with Flashchat 4.1.x - however, it may work with older versions of Flashchat if set-up correctly.

The main features of Version 2.xx are ;

1. It displays the list on Forum Home with the "Users online" display.

2. The list view is collapsable, so you just see the number.

3. Users who should display as coloured or bold etc should be displayed correctly. (based on the display usergroup)

4. If you 'hover' over a username it will show the room they are chatting in.

5. If the chat is empty, a simple "no one is chatting" message is displayed.


Note: This will not display the names of any bots in the chat, due to the strange way that flashchat stores this information.


With help from Cyricx a CPMS module is located in this post. (Version 2.20 only, unsupported - use at your own risk).

Perfect and took about 15 seconds (after getting to the files).

Thanks, Paul!

Install clicked!

Sounds great, clicks Install.

It works fine but is there any way to hide members who have chosen to be invisible?

Yes, but I deliberately didn't include it as it seemed a bit stupid TBH, you can't hide if you are in the chat.

The only reason I had asked is because I have one of my usergroups hooked up to the spy feature of FlashChat, and showing that those users are in the chat really defeats the purpose of that feature. However, I understand your reasoning and I will customize it for myself since many people might not have a use for that.

I see, in that case it is very easy for you, just modify the WHERE clause in the SQL to this ;

Change the "6" to the id of you spy usergroup.

That did the trick, thanks!

Works well, however when does the username vanish from the whos chatting list, as ive been loggeed out for some times and its still there.

This is perfect. I've used Flashchat for a while and could never find a whois online edit. I installed it very quickly with no problems. Great job. *clicks install*

When flashchat removes the user from it's database - my guess is you are not logging out properly, but just closing the browser.

Where to get Flashchat?

just a quick question abt flashchat ( sorry to intrude on this hack thread ), but does it connect to a specified IRC channel ?

FlashChat does not use an IRC channel. It runs fully on your server, using flash, php & MySQL to run.

/me clicks install

great! very usefull. click install!

Hi,

I Installed thios Mod, but the User are in Chat at forumhome, because he is not in Chat.

I closed my Browser and logged out from Forum.

It?s like great, if this small Bug can fixed :)

Sorry, that isn't a bug - that's user error due to the way flashchat works. You must logout of flashchat before closing your browser, otherwise flashchat may not remove you from it's active connections database.

thanks

Nice mod, and easy to install, but after installing I entered chat, but my name doesn't appear next to the Whose in chat box. What might I be doing wrong, any ideas?

Did you refresh the display ?

Paul

Merry Christmas!

Yes, I refresh the display, I waited for a half and hour and refreshed the display again, I tried everything I could think of, still no name shows up.

I'm sure it something pretty simple, but I'm not a coding expert so have no clue where to start to look.

Any other ideas?

Thanks

TBH, I have no idea - there is not exactly much to go wrong.

When you login to flashchat, it adds you to its connections database, which this hack queries. Simple as that. I would guess your flashchat isn't working quite right - what is the address of your forum ?

Paul

Well chat itself seems to be working fine from what I can see. My forum is here

Thanks for your help.

Have you put the code in index.php ?

peep sprnch.com I have it in a custom box on the main vbindex page. Not only that, guests cant see in the room and it only shows members in the room for reg. users if the chat has over 10 users. freakin hot man.

nice addition.

Well it took me a few minutes to figure out your mistake, but the small snippet of code finally gave it away.

You have put the hack code in the wrong file. It goes in vB's index.php - you appear to have installed it in flashchat's index.php.

See posts 11 & 19 in this thread for your answer. :)

Btw, could you please edit your posts to enclose the code in PHP tags, otherwise unregistered users can just copy it. :)

Paul

Thanks! That got me sorted.

:cool:

Installed! Great mod. Thanks

cool mod!
awesome work Paul :up:

has anyone here been able to get this working with CMPS (portal system)? It wud be even cooler if i cud get the CMPS to work with this mod.

thanks

This hack does what it promises. Thanks :D

Do you have a screenshot? Is it much different than this?

That link isn't valid so I don't know - but I have attached a screenshot to the hack.

I installed it and it seems to be working except its showing a guy in the chat that logged off hours ago.

See post 19.

thanks!

Works very good. Thank you! :)
