jIRC Chat Integration

This hack is very similar to other hacks already released, I know there are a few others out there - I made this for myself so thought I would release it just incase anyone else found it useful. This hack takes into consideration Who's On-line, is controlled by one template, and has less files to upload than a few other chat hacks. All the files you need to run IRC chat from your vBulletin are included in this distribution. This hack is configured to work with HashNet IRC [www.hashnet.org]. HashNet let's you register your username's as well as your channels, protecting it from any misuse. All the information you need for such processes can be found on the HashNet site. If you wish to use a different IRC server, or a channel name other than that of your vBulletin title, edit the '<para name' tags in your chat template [which you'll add in Step 2] of installation...

This distribution includes jIRC version 2.6.0. The original jIRC readme file is included in this zip file for copyright reasons. jIRC is Shareware [and as a result, you receive messages encouraging the admin to register when it is used] - if you like the product, and basically if you want it to work correctly you must register it.

Pricing can be found on the jIRC website [www.jpilot.com].

*Thanks to Jakeman, FireFly, TWT Commish and everyone else at vBulletin.org for the help they've given me with vBulletin hacking to date.*

Please click install if you use this hack!

When you say a registered copy of IRC, which software do you mean? I'm thinking of making a Who's In Chat hack at the moment, that'll check the IRC server rather than the vBulletin sessions [thus also including anyone who is chatting using an IRC client].

If you go to www.hashnet.org, you can view the FAQ database. It'll tell you how to register your admin nick name on IRC, and then register your channel and place a bot inside to maintain your adminship over the channel. If you need anymore help post your questions here.

[JC]

No No,

I registered it all with their help even, it's the program it keeps giving me this message

####unregistered version, trial version only

whenever anyone types in the chat room !

Help, thanks.

OH - wtf? You have to pay? NO WHERE in his hack did it mention this...

Any way to go around this, maybe a hack on a free applet and i'll use an irc channel instead?

[foo fighter]

you can use eirc and use the world irc servers although that hack for some reason only works with those servers whereas I have gotten the jirc to work with any of them

[JC]

I have an irc chat room setup , 707imports, it still says the same thing Now what is the explanation???

What is eirc? I need help guys, im new to this hehe.

I just want to have this setup, free and all integrated into the vb, haha...is this possible and how - with the eirc, if so, what is needed to make it work?

Thanks,

JC
