Sigma Chat integration for non-platinum users

Introduction
This hack integrates your forum with the Sigma Chat software provided by Raidersoft. Unlike the other Sigma integration hack, this one will work for users who own the Professional (entry-level) license, rather than the more expensive Platinum license.

What does it do?
This hack means that only registered forum users will be able to access the chat room. Additionally, they will only be able to chat using the same username as they have on the forum. If someone who isn't registered (or logged in) tries to visit the chat room they will see the standard "No Permission" vBulletin screen.

Is it complicated to install?
No, it's simple. You don't need to edit any VB files, you simply upload one new file (chat.php) to your forum directory and add one new template via your Admin CP.

Support?
Yes, I will support this hack. PM me if you need any help.

Demo?
I've installed this on a colleagues server. You can see the chat integration in action (you will need to register) at at this site

I also used some code (which limits the username length to 15 characters) which was originally created by wot-Mike for his vB2.x chat hack - so all credit to him.

Hope it proves useful for you - please let me know if you use it

I'm getting an invalid username or password message. My forum username has a space in it, but Sigmachat doesn't allow spaces in usernames. However, when we used a similar hack for vB2, it accepted usernames with spaces. Is it different now, or is there another reason that could cause this? We have sigmachat professional, but will upgrade to platinum if necessary.

thanks

The code should convert spaces in your usernames to underscores _. Did you get it to work yet? You shouldn't see the password screen at all unless you have registered some usernames in the SigmaChat control panel?

Has anyone experienced any problems with this from behind a firewall?

I'm trying to install the hack for sigma chat (pro version).
I've done steps #1 & #2.

For step #3-
In VBulletin admin cp I've done, templates > add template and copied and pasted the contents of chatroom_template.txt into it.

When I try to test it I get this error message -
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: fetch_template() in /home/wdisneyw/public_html/forums/chat.php on line 17

I presume it means I've not added the template correctly, but I can't see how.

Using VBulletin Version 2.2.8.

Thanks!

Nice work

Now that the 3.0.0 "Gold" release has been announced, we're (RaiderSoft author of SigmaChat) is hoping for full integration with the product, for all versions (from Free to Enterprise) as well as support for auto-login, remote authentication, and the Who's Online Module feature. This is a great start. If anyone is interested in working with us to complete the project, please let us know (support AT raidersoft.com)

One note -- we use multiple servers for our software, and some users are provided slightly different applet link code than others. The only difference is the server (either client.sigmachat.com, client0.sigmachat.com, or client1.sigmachat.com at the moment for our networks) It would really rock if this could be worked into the admin CP somehow. Possible?

We'd also be interested in adding any polished mods to our own database available for users to download from the "Extras" section of the SigmaChat control panel

Hey guys.

Whenever I go to type in my username and password I always get an error that says Invalid Username or Password even though they are both correct. Any suggestions?

Another problem.

The pop-up menus of the navbar appear behind the chat room.

Where is the support for this hack? Although the title states: "The Author agreed to give support for this hack!" he hasn't replied to any questions.
