Flashchat: Who is chatting

This modification is no longer available or supported.

This is a simple ForumHome display of who is currently using your Flashchat.

Version 2.20 is for use with Flashchat 4.1.x - however, it may work with older versions of Flashchat if set-up correctly.

The main features of Version 2.xx are ;

1. It displays the list on Forum Home with the "Users online" display.

2. The list view is collapsable, so you just see the number.

3. Users who should display as coloured or bold etc should be displayed correctly. (based on the display usergroup)

4. If you 'hover' over a username it will show the room they are chatting in.

5. If the chat is empty, a simple "no one is chatting" message is displayed.


Note: This will not display the names of any bots in the chat, due to the strange way that flashchat stores this information.


With help from Cyricx a CPMS module is located in this post. (Version 2.20 only, unsupported - use at your own risk).

Mine works and I'm running 3.5.4. Create a CMPS module called "adv_portal_whochat", select YES for "Use Module Shell Template" and then add this code to adv_portal_whochat template:

<tr>
<td class="$bgclass">
<center>
<font size="1" face="verdana">
Currently Active Chatters: $totalchatters
<br>$chatters
</font></center>
</td>
</tr>

Then ftp the attached 'whochat.php' file in your /forums/modules folder.

Thanks for the post - I couldn't get it to work though. Here are the steps I took:

1st - uploaded whochat.php to modules dirrectory.
2nd - Created the template in my default style (all styles are child styles of this one)

3rd - Created Module

-Add Module
-PHP File option

-Module Title -> Who's Chatting
-Column -> Left Column
-Display Order -> 8
-Active -> yes (default value)
-Update All -> yes (dafault value)

-File to include -> whochat.php
-Module Parent -> none
-Identifiers -> chatters (not sure what this should have been, so I guessed)
-Template -> adv_portal_whochat

-Use Module Shell -> yes
-Module Link -> (blank)
-Title Row Colspan -> (blank)
-Form Code -> (blank)

This is on vB 3.0.6 and CMPS 2.0. I guess it's possible that the modules aren't compatible from 2.1 to 2.0...

Also, on this forum, the vB software and CMPS software are in the root directory - not sure if this has a bearing or not. (not my doing...)

Somewhere in this there is an error, because I get a white screen when this module is active.

This version is for vb 3.0, not 3.5.

I used Paul M's CMPS module..

Works great when I am in the chat.
As soon as I log out.
The CMPS homepage goes to a Blank white page..
View the Source and it's blank.

I dissable the Module... everthing works fine again.

Any thoughts?
