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.

First of all this is an awesome hack. But why doesn't it automatically pull our header and footer etc. without needing to do it separately?

it's working for me but i have some problems. The best would be if you check it out on yourself
www.sportboard.de/chat

the popup-version does very well but the normal view seems to have some problems with the css file and with the gfx.

the only thing i can think of is that your storing CSS as files, otherwise it should work perfectly. howerver i did check out that link and the only thing broken were an iamge or two which is just a path issue

Is there any way to have it join more than one room at a time when you log in to the server? We have two rooms, one for silly chat and one for serious discussion (usually moderated with a set topic for a few hours a night).

Also, how about being able to resize the java window from the Admin CP? That'd be useful - some people have complained it's a bit too small.

With this chat applet, is it possible to change the display font size and colour? Again, some people have said the default is hard to read on their monitor, and it'd be great if either it could use one set by Admin, or if the users could change it themselves

The only thing I really think this addon needs is the ability to use the standard header and footer templates...

Great work!

you can use the standard header and footer tempaltes, it used to, but ppl complained about having to modify them to work correctly

just copy your header and footer templates into them and they should work fine

Header > vbxirc_header
footer > vbixrc_footer

if the java window is too small you can change it in the templates, altho i will look into adding it into the ACP for the next release as it is a good idea

yes see in the template where it says command1 copy that put2 and change /join $vboptions[ircroom] to /join #roomname

Is there any way to either use the nickname guest_XXX or modify a nickname so it does NOT begin with a number? Some of my members cannot log in since their nickname beings with a number, and the IRC server rejects it.

In a reply to myself, I found the following:

in chat/index.php

Line 48:

$nonalnum = ereg_replace("[^ [:alnum:]]", "", $bbuserinfo[username]);

Change to say the following:

$nonalnum = preg_replace("/^(\d.*)/","_\$1", $bbuserinfo[username]);

That should cause the forum to add an underscore to the front of the nickname if it begins with a digit, and leave it unmolested if it does not.
