I created a custom template/page based on this tutorial.
http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=197563

My problem is I do not know what to input in the code/body area for RealChat
(software / unix edition http://www.realchat.com/chat-server-software.php).

I installed it with vbulletin integration
http://www.realchat.com/doc/database-integration.html

However, I just do not know what would go in the body of the custom template I created. I simply copied the body portion I found in the page source, but that only showed blank page when I pulled it up.

The actual code to link it in the navbar (or anywhere to create a link to the chat) is this:

Code:

    <script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    function realchatPopup(url, nn, pu, au, hmac) {
    var r = screen.height / screen.width;
    var w =  screen.width>800?1000:800;
    var h = Math.round(w*r);
    var c = function(s) { return encodeURIComponent(s).replace('!', '%21'); }
    var rcw = window.open(url + '&nn=' + c(nn) + '&pu=' + c(pu) +'&au=' + c(au) + '&hmac=' + hmac + '&cu=cw', 'rc',
    'width='+w+',height='+h+',status=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes');
    rcw.focus();
    }
    //-->
    </script>
    <a href="$chatLink">Chat</a>

Any help appreciated.

The link to the chat works fine (the script code I provide). I'm having a problem figuring out what goes in the body of the custom template I created so that the chat room shows up in there instead. When I go to this link, it shows a blank page:

http://www.talkjesus.com/misc.php?do...plate=realchat

This is the custom template (called realchat_realchat)

Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
$headinclude
<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>
</head>
<body>

$header
$navbar
<noscript><b>This application requires JavaScript.</b><br/>Your browser either does not support JavaScript or scripts are being blocked.</noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="realchat.js$!20070808084731"><\/script>');</script>
$footer
</body>
</html>

I'm obviously using the wrong coding to pull up the actual chat room. I just cannot figure out what the proper code should be. I really would appreciate any tips or help on this. I know its custom stuff, but your help is appreciated

Plus, there are no good chat software out there that integrate with vbulletin, aside this one which I'm trying out in trial mode.

I would appreciate any help on this.

Anyone willing to give this a shot? It would be a great blessing to many vbulletin owners who are looking for a decent chat room.

The misc.php file you are using to test the template requires that the template name begins with "custom"

from the php:

PHP Code:


			
        eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('custom_' . $template_name) . '");');

rename your template to custom_realchat

Thank you. The page pulls up, but this time the chat just does not appear at all

http://www.talkjesus.com/misc.php?do...plate=realchat

custom_realchat template shows this:

Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
$headinclude
<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>
</head>
<body>

$header
$navbar
<noscript><b>This application requires JavaScript.</b><br/>Your browser either does not support JavaScript or scripts are being blocked.</noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="realchat.js$!20070808084731"><\/script>');</script>
$footer
</body>
</html>

I don't know what specific chat code should actually be in there.

When I go directly to the original chat page, the page source shows this:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

where on your system have you dropped the realchat.js?

src="realchat.js$!20070809010203"

is the js sitting in your root folder, or in clientscript, or somewhere else? if it is somewhere else, add the path to the src line

src="clientscript/realchat.js$!20070809010203"

Chadi · #7 08-14-2007, 02:10 AM

Its located in this directory

/home/username/public_html/RealChat/www/pub

I tried this:

<noscript><b>This application requires JavaScript.</b><br/>Your browser either does not support JavaScript or scripts are being blocked.</noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="/RealChat/www/pub/realchat.js$!20070808084731"><\/script>');</script>

Didn't work

I also tried this

<noscript><b>This application requires JavaScript.</b><br/>Your browser either does not support JavaScript or scripts are being blocked.</noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="RealChat/www/pub/realchat.js$!20070808084731"><\/script>');</script>

In the source of your webpage (near the bottom) it says

src="RealChat/www/pub/RealChat/www/pub/realchat.js

So the path is being concatenated somewhere. Play around with the php code until the resulting source code is correct.

Can you provide a link to the "working" non vb page?

Chadi · #9 08-14-2007, 02:04 PM

<a href="http://147.202.66.9:8085/?nn=Chad&pu=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.talkjesus.com%2Fmembe r.php%3Fu%3D3&au=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.talkjesus.com%2F image.php%3Fu%3D3&hmac=f4a83ad5df7ba1e27fe1873f21f 8d1d5&cu=" target="_blank">Click here for direct page</a>

Thanks for the help.

If you get this worked out, it will be a great thing for all other vbulletin users looking for something more stable, clean and user friendly than flashchat (which I've used for 3 years now).

It's putting up a page not found error, it is at least performing the document.write.

As I said in my last post, you need to play around with your "src="path/path/RealChat.js"

Until what actually appears in the loaded page (view the source thereof) shows the correct path
