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).

As previously mentioned - I have no way of testing this to make sure it works.

It works perfectly, thanks!

No problem - just tag these four lines onto the end of the code added in index.php ;

PHP Code:

else
{
    $chatters = "No one is currently chatting";
}

is there Any way if one is logged onto the forum that they can go straight into the chat room without logging in again?

Thanks,

Greg

Not really much I can say without seeing your set-up.

I was having the same problem, then I tried logging in with the same account from a different computer, with security settings that weren't set as high, and I could enter chat without logging in, so I think that may be something to do with it.

[Treasure Quest]

Tried lowering the security setting, ddn't work.
If I send you the files would you look at them Paul?
If so which ones would you need?

Thank you,

Greg
