Major Additions - [AJAX] EWT Chat 3.0.1 Lite

This is a php/mySQL powered chat system.

EWT Chat 3.0.0 Lite Changes
-Complete Recode
-Enhanced ajax which performs much faster and should allow for an additional load of 500% compared to the last release of 2.9.x
-Many changes to everything
-Remove private message system for now
-Remove /cmds besides /me for now

EWT Chat 3.0.01 Lite Changes
-Redid layout and javascript for planned changes to the pro side and to make things look cleaner.
-fixed various little things.

Whats the difference between pro and lite?
Lite:
The lite version supports only one chat room with no ability to create custom rooms.
It doesnt have any user preferences anymore either.
Basic yet functional chatroom without advanced features

Pro: (Still being developed)
Ability to create custom and private rooms
Plus many more things soon to come.

I think this release fixes every reported bug that I have read about.




Version 2.9.x to 3.0.0 Upgrade Steps:
Upload all the files
Upload the product file
Delete any old files from the previous versions
Disable the minichat addon if you have it for now as it wont work with v3 just yet until I release an updated version.
Open up the fresh install readme and follow the steps for editing ajax_chat.php (just a few settings I didnt feel we needed to use a query for)


2.9.1 to 2.9.2 Upgrade Steps:
Open up template navbar find:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

function OpenvBChat(){
vBChat = window.open('vBChat.php?$session[sessionurl]','vBChat','directories=no,height='+window.screen.height+',width='+window.screen.width+',location=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,status=no,toolbar=no')

return false;
}

-->
</script>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="vBChat.php?$session[sessionurl]" onclick="return OpenvBChat();">vBChat</a></td>

Replace with:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

function OpenvBChat(){
vBChat = window.open('chat.php?$session[sessionurl]','vBChat','directories=no,height='+window.screen.height+',width='+window.screen.width+',location=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,status=no,toolbar=no')

return false;
}

-->
</script>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="chat.php?$session[sessionurl]" onclick="return OpenvBChat();">vBChat</a></td>

Please if you use this hack click install and feel free to donate to help support the future development of this system.


V3 is a highlight release for this product as it runs and performs much faster then ever before and can now handle a considerable amt of load.

This chat script should technically be able to support 1k+ users on a good high end server.

Yikes again! I was going to install until I saw this: Shouldn't this script be reasonably mature and reasonably without errors before it is charged for? Your time is your investment for the future and you shouldn't ask people to pay for an immature script and neither should you force Adsense ads upon people. Sorry, no install but I'll keep an eye on this thread to see when the script is mature and then I'll consider forking out my 15 bucks! Oops, sorry, you're not charging people, you're asking for a donation. Well, others do that without forcing Adsense ads!

Same here......

I also liked it better when just the chat box opened up in a new window and not the whole damn site.

[eXtremeTim]

okay ill make an option to control how the chat window opens up.

[morpheusXIIX]

I love the new updates, but I also agree that the chat should have an option to open into a new window.

Great work no less. I love the ajax integration.

[eXtremeTim]

for all users having issues with the style spacing not being correct do the following.

in vBChat.php find:

    $chat_page .= "<table height='100%' border='0'>";

replace with

    $chat_page .= "<table height='100%' border='0'><tr><td colspan\"2\" height=\"100%\"></td></tr>";

Once this project matures, I will be interested in removing the ads and whatnot. I like it so far, but lots of symbols are not working - such as >, <, &, ", ' etc. Once those are fixed, I'll be glad to donate $15 for removal of the ads so I can formally open up the vBChat on my site.
