IMPORTANT NOTICE: This hack has now been discontinued - this means that while it will remain available for download and use, there will be no further updates as this thread is no longer monitored. I am also not interested in doing paid work requests to update this hack at all.


IMPORTANT NOTICE 2: This hack only works with FlashChat 5 and later versions, and will not work with FlashChat 4.7.x.
There is version of this hack that will work with FlashChat 4.7.12, and can be downloaded here.


What Does This Hack Do?[hr]hr[/hr]
It is a update of my v3.7.x hack available here, with a couple of small changes.

This hack allows you to integrate the FlashChat 5 Admin Panel into your vBulletin Admin Control Panel, so all administration is done in one place, nothing more, nothing less. This hack does not in any way change the FlashChat 5 Admin Panel works, nor does it add anything extra to it.

It comes with Administrator Permissions, so you can limit which administrators you want to admin Flashchat via the AdminCP. You can even optionally remove FlashChat's own nav links - see the screenshots for comparison.

I like it. Thanks

Gave me a problem in the admin. The only thing I see in the admin cp now is *[]*. Im suing 3.7.3.pl1 and I have ugraded to the newest flash chat 5.

I have seen this over a dozen times over the last couple of versions of this hack, it is a classic sign that you have not done Step 3 correctly.

Go over and follow the installation instructions to the letter, and your problem should go away.

Do not use < and >, in this case it is just chat you want to use.

hi Mosh i've this trouble when install your hack:

edit: nvm, just solved :D

re-edit: not i've another trouble when i go in the FC menu and i try to select any option i've 'page not found' :(

I take it you have vBulletin v3.8.x, Flashchat v5.x.x and Paul M's Flashchat: Integration for vB 3.7 v3.7.009 installed and working correctly?

If so, what do you get if you put the full url to the flashchat admincp in the address bar?

yes the chat runs correctly, the integration also (i've changed the version of the vB into the xml) ... what do you mean with the full url?

Something along the lines of:
What do you see on the screen if you enter the full url? Is it still a Page not found message?

i've got this :(

edit: now i've uploaded the top.tpl file and i haven't this error ... but the 'not found' error is still here ...
