vBXirc

PLEASE READ

This thread is only here for users who have already installed this hack, there is no longer a public version of vBXirc for vBulletin 3.0.x

There will be a 3.5.x version in the near future.

Sorry for any problems this may have caused.

Thanks for doing the update

I have a problem though, I've installed and everything seemed to go ok. In the options I have selected #ukbboy to be my room, however when the chat window opens the room is always #geekjunto

how can I fix that?
thanks

[Zachery]

weird, oh you know what i bet i didnt update a template lol lemme post the fix

[MikeJeffs]

Cheers

Do I just reupload or do I need to run the install script again?

I was also wondering if there is a way to remove the "change nick" box. Part of the advantage of only allowing access to members is that they use their own names (they could of course type /nick, but most don't know about that.)

[Zachery]

yes you can remove the nick box,

read my first post on how to fix your first question

find in both vbxirc_index and vbxirc_small

<!-- start nickinfo -->
<param name="pixx:nickfield" value="true">
<!-- end nickinfo-->

replace with

<!-- start nickinfo -->
<param name="pixx:nickfield" value="false">
<!-- end nickinfo-->

thanks

On your first post though there is a typo, it shoudl be:

<param name="command1" value="/join #geekjunto">

should be changed to:

<param name="command1" value="/join $vboptions[ircroom]">

It stays gray.

did you upload all the files into the chat folder like the instructions said?

also this probally wont work correctly (Templatewise) if your still using beta 7

[MikeJeffs]

You have:
<param name="host" value="$vboptions[ircroom]">

Should be:
<param name="command1" value="/join $vboptions[ircroom]">

I'm having one final issue. When your not logged in and a user selects to go to the chat, they are presented with the VB login screen, but on logging in users are forwarded to a 404 page (http://www.domain.com/forum/chat/login.php) - is there a way they can be taken to the chat?

many thanks for a great hack!
