Chat Modifications - Digital Point Chat

About
This is a simple, pseudo realtime chat system for vBulletin 4.

I tossed this together today real quick as a test of something and figured that people might have some use for it.

Installation

• Put the chat.php file in your forum folder.
• Put the digitalpoint_chat.js file in your clientscript folder.
• Install the product-dp_chat.xml product under AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product

You can find setting for it under AdminCP -> Options -> Settings -> Digital Point Chat

It has full unicode support so non-latin based languages work as well.

thnx Shawn ..

So is this thing going to be well optimized (and not a resource hog)... or is that something on the to do list for a future version?

It shouldn't be a resource hog at all. Ran some test with over 1,000 people in the chat and couldn't tell the difference as far as server loads.

Sorry did'nt see the answer but is there a way to show this just inside a forum section or is it only the forum homepage for now?

You are using an old version of vBulletin I assume? That was a bug they fixed in vBulletin itself.

Hello Shawn,

i have installed this mod, but nothing is display in the chat window. The installation was succesful, the submitted text is store in the table, the chat window is empty ...

I'am use 4.08 and standard template.

Edit: in Line 90 in your chat.php is "AS customavar" is missing ... (database error). German umlauts not displayed ... Please fix it.
