FlashChat : Integration upgrades for vBulletin.

This modification is no longer available or supported.

This originally made changes to add new facilities to your FlachChat & vb set-up. However, all the features added are now part of standard Flashchat (4.6.0 and above). This now just supplies the latest vb 3.0 CMS file, which depending on circumstances, may either be the same as, or newer than, the one supplied with Flashchat itself.

To install the latest 3.0 CMS file - unzip it, edit the usergroups access and options as required, and then copy the file to the ../chat/inc/cmses/ folder on your server.


Optionally, you can also edit inc\langs\en.php.

Finding ;

'banned' => "You've been banned",

and replacing with ;

'banned' => "You do not have permission to enter the chat",

* Version 1.82 was the last version of the old hack (for Flashchat 4.2.1 upwards).

History of the 3.0 CMS file

* v1.13 - updated vbulletin30CMS.php file for vb 3.0 and Flashchat 4.5.2+ this contains a fix for a cookie security issue.
* v1.14 - Added ability to login direct to a room using ../flashchat.php?username=_int_&room=n
* v1.15 - Alterations to caching code.
* v1.16 - Minor fix to Get User for membergroupids.
* v1.17 - Security (anti-hacking) code added (as supplied by Darren).
* v1.18 - Usergroup settings moved to top of CMS file.
* v1.19 - Fixed error message when accessing chat admin area.
* v1.20 - Default role changed.
* v1.21 - Minor bug fix to Avatar detection, login code changes, tidy up.

In inc/common.php define your new user ROLE.

In inc/layouts copy user.php into newuser.php

Edit newuser.php with the settings for that user.

In inc\cmses\vbulletinCMS2.php define your new ROLE and its groups.

Your mileage may vary. I am a hacker, not a coder.

Well it does say this version is no longer actively supported.

The instructions are way out of date, since most of the stuff has now been added into the native flashchat files by Darren. I'll give them a quick going over and edit out the bits no longer needed (which is actually most of it).

Hi,
I installed flashchat 4.5.5 in my vB 3.0.5 and all works fine.
Only the autologin feature is not working for me.
vb is in domain.tld/forum
flashchat is in domain.tld/forum/flashchat

But when going into the chat all users must login again. It is indepented of logged-in status in vb.
any idea what is wrong?

[Whiterook]

I have the same problem Tom. Can anyone give us an answer.
I've installed the latest update, and like Onkel Tom states.... All is working fine except that all the users need to log in again, but whats worse is they can use any name they want. Also the chat is accessable via the path from outside the site, by just adding any name and password.

Thanks in advance for any help offered,
WR
