Hi.... it is my first hack - phpProbe

here is it... it was tested under vbb2x RC2 and phpMyChat 0.14.4

News:
Updated on 19.07.01
- FAQ has been add

Updated on 18.07.01
The hack is compatible with version 0.14.5 of phpMyChat
- there is some javaScript code there, so the hack will not work with browsers without JS support (phpMyChat will not work with these browsers too

)
- the Exit link in chat works ok now

Hack:
Step 1:
open /lib/index.lib.php3 in yours phpMyChat Derictory
find:

PHP Code:


			
// Fix some security holes

replace it with

PHP Code:


			
//a VBB integration hack by Stasik (stasik@t-online.de)

//v0.1

//(C)2001



$exiturl = "http://www.blabla.com"; // the url the user will be redirected exiting the chat



if($Ver == ""){print "

<HTML>

<SCRIPT TYPE=\"text/javascript\" LANGUAGE=\"javascript\">

    <!--

    var NS4 = (document.layers) ? 1 : 0;

    var IE4 = ((document.all) && (parseInt(navigator.appVersion)>=4)) ? 1 : 0;

    var ver4 = (NS4 || IE4) ? \"H\" : \"L\";

function defineVerField()

    {

        if (document.images && ver4 == 'L')

            document.forms['Params'].elements['Ver'].value = 'M';    // js1.1 enabled browser

        else document.forms['Params'].elements['Ver'].value = ver4;

    }

 -->

</SCRIPT>

<FORM ACTION=\"index.php3\" METHOD=\"POST\" AUTOCOMPLETE=\"OFF\" NAME=\"Params\">

<INPUT TYPE=\"hidden\" NAME=\"Ver\" VALUE=\"L\">

</FORM>

<SCRIPT TYPE=\"text/javascript\" LANGUAGE=\"javascript\">

defineVerField();

document.forms.Params.submit();

</SCRIPT>

</HTML>

"; exit;}



chdir("/path/to/board/");

require("./global.php");

chdir("/path/to/chat/");



if ($bbuserid == 0) 

{ 

print "no"; //Message if the user has no cookie

exit; 

}

else

{

if ($bbusername == "" || (isset($bbusername))==0) 

{ 

$getusername=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT username FROM user WHERE userid=$bbuserid"); 

$username=$getusername[username]; 

$bbusername = $username; 

}

else 

{ 

$username = $bbusername; 

} }



$U = $username;



$pat = "[[:space:]]"; 

$repl = ""; 

$U = ereg_replace($pat,$repl,$U); 

$pat = ','; 

$U = ereg_replace($pat,$repl,$U); 

stripslashes($U); 



$N = 20; 

$D = 10; 

$Form_Send = 1; 



//Replace admin with your administration nick

if($U != "Admin")

{

$PASSWORD="1";

}



// Fix some security holes

        }

    }

replace it with:

PHP Code:


			
$DbLink->query("INSERT INTO ".C_MSG_TBL." VALUES ($EN, '$E', 'SYS exit', '', ".time().", '', 'sprintf(L_EXIT_ROM, \"".special_char($U,$Latin1)."\")')");

        }

    }

if($exit == "1"){header ("Location: $exiturl"); exit;}

Step 3:
open /exit.php3 in yours phpMyChat Derictory
find:

PHP Code:


			
<A HREF="<?php echo("$From?Ver=$Ver&L=$L&U=".urlencode(stripslashes($U))."&E=".urlencode(stripslashes($R))."&EN=$T"); ?>" TARGET="_parent"><?php echo(L_EXIT); ?></A>

replace it with:

PHP Code:


			
<A HREF="<?php echo("$From?exit=1&Ver=$Ver&L=$L&U=".urlencode(stripslashes($U))."&E=".urlencode(stripslashes($R))."&EN=$T"); ?>" TARGET="_parent"><?php echo(L_EXIT); ?></A>

ENJOY

FAQ:
Q: I`m getting "no" every time.
A: You need to upgrade a cookie option in your VB control panel. Write under: Options->Change Options->[HTTP Headers and output]->Cookie Domain your domainname ONLY (blabla.com).

Q: I`m getting "you need to register" error.
A: Enable chat using for not registered users in your phpMyChat config (/config/config.lib.php3).

Q: I`m getting "wrong password" error.
A: Make shure you have deleted all user accounts in your chat and have only administrative one. If you are logging is as administrator note that you have to enter your password EVERY time you are logging in.

Post it here I`ll answer ASAP.

The only other thing I did was install the who's chatting hack. But that's after the chat room was setup. This is what I did:

1) Install Chat
2) Followed instructions to integrate vB db
3) Installed who's chatting

Things went smoothly for both hacking parts.

Great, thanks Loxias.

intstead of this code in the hack

<A HREF="<?php echo("$From?exit=1&Ver=$Ver&L=$L&U=".$U))."&E=".$R ))."&EN=$T"); ?>" TARGET="_parent"><?php echo(L_EXIT); ?></A>

i changed it to this

<A HREF="<?php echo("http://www.yourhome.com");"&E=".$R;"&EN=$T"; ?>" TARGET="_parent"><?php echo(L_EXIT); ?></A>

Thanks, i'll give it a go.

This is a wonderful chat hack and with the users chatting online at the top of the forum index really helps push more users into it BUT.....

Can someone please tell me how I can add 'Users Chatting Online' to other parts of the forum, for example 'View New Posts' and at the top of every forum (or sub forum).

Can this be done please?

Thank you

Stu

I have a few questions:

1) Is this the best PHPMyChat integration hack?

2) Does anyone have a demo they can show / PM me?

3) Wiih the impending release of vB3, will it mean this hack becomes obsolete, when I upgrade to vB3?

4) Roughly how long will this take to install?

5) Does anyone have the "latest" version of this hack?

Thanks a lot,

Ben

kaotic · #**378** 05-22-2003, 04:32 PM

yes, http://chat.legacynexus.com, probably, not long for me, yes

veedee · #**379** 05-22-2003, 04:40 PM

Thanks, your chat link doesn't work.

Do you have the URL to the latest version?

Okay, this is bizarre. I've set up phpMyChat on my server with this vB integration, but I can't get into the chat. I've set up multiple admins, and the other admins can get in but I get held up on the "You typed a incorrect password." which is weird as I didn't have to type one originally to get in, it was automatic!

I can edit my profile and log into the chat admin, but I can't get into the chat proper. My chat username/password I set to be the same as my forum username/password, but every time I enter my username/password under the "Please set..." section, it just goes back to the same page with the same "incorrect password" error.

Please help!!!

X-Fan · #**381** 05-24-2003, 03:00 PM

Weirder still... I changed my phpMyChat username, and it lets me straight into the chatroom now but under my forums username!

Bizarre...

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
