Chat Modifications - FlashChat 6: Admin Panel Integration

Please click Mark as Installed if you are using this hack.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: This hack has now been discontinued - this means that while it will remain available for download and use, there will be no further updates as this thread is no longer monitored. I am also not interested in doing paid work requests to update this hack at all.


IMPORTANT NOTICE 2: This hack only works with FlashChat 6 and later versions, and will not work with either FlashChat 5.0.x. nor FlashChat 4.7.x.


What Does This Hack Do?[hr]Silver[/hr]
It is a update of my v3.8.x hack available here, designed to work with vBulletin 4.0.x and FlashChat 6.

This hack allows you to integrate the FlashChat 6 Admin Panel into your vBulletin Admin Control Panel, so all administration is done in one place, nothing more, nothing less. This hack does not in any way change the FlashChat 6 Admin Panel works, nor does it add anything extra to it.

It comes with Administrator Permissions, so you can limit which administrators you want to admin Flashchat via the AdminCP. You can even optionally remove FlashChat's own nav links - see the screenshots for comparison.

I installed thie Flash Chat for VB 4.0 and ran into 2 small problems....

1. after installing the Admin Panel Integration and I click on Configuration. I receive the error page saying The requested URL /forums/chat/admin/cnf_config.php was not found on this server. I doubled checked and that file is not there.

2. Also when going to the chat room, what is the url I should use? So i can make the link on my main forum page. right now if I go to www.domainname.com/forums/chat it brings me to a white page reading at the top Welcome to FlashChat v 4.7.11 Start FlashChat using built-in login and I have to log in again.

At some point in the future, but no ETA at this time.

I have released free hacks here for a long time, actually it will be five years next month since I released my first hack here, for over four and half of those years I provided free support too. The reason I do not provide free support now is that I have been unemployed for a fair while and updating and creating new commercial products, supporting my paid subscribers and paying clients take president over my free hacks as they put food on my families' table and a roof over our heads and my free hacks do not, and that is why it is taking so long for me to get around to updating them.
