MGC Chatbox (with AJAX) Details »» | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Last version - MGC Chatbox Evo available : here Description When I had left the vBulletin world, I was in the past the co-author of a little chatbox (shoutbox), very well known in the vBulletin world. This chatbox had been developed by Svaliotti (known as Poseidon on vb.org) for vB2 in the past and I had made the porterage (with is authorisation as we were both members of the same french non-official support forum) and the improvement for vB3. It is thus normal that in my return in the vBulletin world, I begin by getting down to this hack. Even if several versions of chatbox are already present in the vBulletin world, I said to myself that it would be a good thing to make a made in France. Naturally, I don't deal with a "copy" version of the other chatbox, I have any coded at the beginning (it was preferable because the front code wasn't so clean any more), and I integrated a good quantity of very interesting features. New version features The new version contains all the features from the previous version. Description of these versions can be found in Sofia's post hereabove (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1257510&postcount=3). Modifications from previous version are the following :
Installation Read the file "Installation" in the pack. Once the installation is ended, go in usergroups and edit permissions to see the Chatbox. By default, no group has access to the chatbox. Screenshots The screenshots are in french as I have made it on an online website which is in french. Don't hesitate to give me new one if you want in english They are up to date of 1.3 version. See the following post : https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1292136&postcount=559 User manual Coming soon ... Copyright This hack is under copyright MGC (Mtor&Grog Corporation) 2007-forever and was developed for vBulletin-Resources.com & vb-hacks.org. Its redistribution on another forum that vbulletin-ressources.com, vb-hacks.org or vbulletin.org are prohibited without aggreement of the authors! Evolutions and improvements This sixth version of the chatbox is already very complete, but like each product, its evolution depends on all. Then don't hesitate especially to share your ideas of improvements so that we can improve even more this chatbox. Languages Actually available :

For vbadvanced, a module is available here : https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=163628. FAQ Q: I installed the chatbox but it doesn't display R: Check if you have allowed users (permissions in usergroups) Q: I see shouts but in the collapsed chatbox R: You can specify number of shouts in the collapsed chatbox. If you don't want to see it, put "0" for this option. Q: The chatbox doesn't display below or in the top of one of the pages while in the other position it displays R: You use a style and it's possible that variables used in templates aren't present. (Read the file "Read Me") Q: I have a problem with accents in the Chatbox R: Read the file "Read Me" Q: How to change the value of color for date and for command /me? R: When you add additionnal CSS for each style, you can change color in class CSS. Thanks to Sofia for her earlier help on the chatbox.

Wow that's really really strange...
You don't show in the vB Wol when active in the chatbox ?? If you don't show in the vB wol then it's logical that you don't show either in the chatbox wol as it's based on it. Did you show in the vB wol when active in the chatbox in the previous version ? Which vB version do you use ? |

This is fixed by the user forcing a refresh with CTRL+F5. VBDev, The WOL issue for me is this: If a user is using the chatbox on forumhome, then they are "not online". So another user pressing WOL sees only "You are actually the only user connected to the chatbox". Right now I have about 5 users using chat, all on forumhome, and if I press WOL I see "you are actually the only user..." If I get my test user to go to the dedicated chatbox page and he presses WOL then that user still sees "You are actually the only user...". But now I, still on forumhome, can see that one user in WOL. So, the WOL logic only sees users who are using the dedicated page. This behaviour seems unaffected by browser type. |

For the inactive thing, they experienced that as soon as they loaded the page with the new chatbox ?
Ok, then I'll have to investigate a bit on the wol thing. When you are on the forumhome in the chatbox, do you appear in the vb wol ? (if yes what is your location ?) |

I also have put the chatbox in "search results". If you use the chat box there, vbWOL shows "Searching forums". If you go to the dedicated chatbox page, vbWOL shows ""MGC Chatbox". Na that's normal to help, you help me to track the bugs to provide a free from bug products [/QUOTE] |

For the idle state you should have told me it was in collapsed mode That's an enormous clue for me, I'll check that out this evening.
Could you test it also on forumdisplay and showthread so that I can be sure that it's a global problem plz ? |

The original idle fault was on both collapsed and expanded, but the odd recurring idle thing is only on collapsed.

Clicking a smiliey throws me to cyb's advanced stats, not to the bottom of the page. And it only seems to happen on first click. If I click two smilies in a row first one will jump the cursor down, on second click it stays where it is.
I also don't get anyone in channel wol, even though some members are shown as in mgc chatbox in board's who's online. But regardless of the above still great hack and thx VBDev for providing support I haven't seen yet seen with any other hack. Hope you won't get too tired |
