Hi.... it is my first hack - phpProbe
here is it... it was tested under vbb2x RC2 and phpMyChat 0.14.4
News:
Updated on 19.07.01
- FAQ has been add
Updated on 18.07.01 The hack is compatible with version 0.14.5 of phpMyChat
- there is some javaScript code there, so the hack will not work with browsers without JS support (phpMyChat will not work with these browsers too )
- the Exit link in chat works ok now
Hack: Step 1:
open /lib/index.lib.php3 in yours phpMyChat Derictory
find:
PHP Code:
// Fix some security holes
replace it with
PHP Code:
//a VBB integration hack by Stasik (stasik@t-online.de)
//v0.1
//(C)2001
$exiturl = "http://www.blabla.com"; // the url the user will be redirected exiting the chat
if ($bbuserid == 0)
{
print "no"; //Message if the user has no cookie
exit;
}
else
{
if ($bbusername == "" || (isset($bbusername))==0)
{
$getusername=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT username FROM user WHERE userid=$bbuserid");
$username=$getusername[username];
$bbusername = $username;
}
else
{
$username = $bbusername;
} }
FAQ:
Q: I`m getting "no" every time.
A: You need to upgrade a cookie option in your VB control panel. Write under: Options->Change Options->[HTTP Headers and output]->Cookie Domain your domainname ONLY (blabla.com).
Q: I`m getting "you need to register" error.
A: Enable chat using for not registered users in your phpMyChat config (/config/config.lib.php3).
Q: I`m getting "wrong password" error.
A: Make shure you have deleted all user accounts in your chat and have only administrative one. If you are logging is as administrator note that you have to enter your password EVERY time you are logging in.

After reading some of the posts here I figured out that I did not put in the correct path. Once I did this, now the chat comes up like it did....is it supposed to do this or is there supposed to be a link. Also you can't get into the chat at all now, not even with a password.
Ok... I have it working somewhat. When you go to my chat http://www.theparentclub.com/tpcchat/index.php3 , the message appears when you are not registered, but I'd like to provide a link to register after that message. I do not know php at all and when I try to put html code into it, I get an error. So it's obvious that I don't know what to do and reall need help on this last step. I'm anxious to make this available to my members.
Has any one got this to work on a PHP4 server? I have made the necessary changes but get a internal error of 500 when I try to run the setup.php3. Something tells me my server doesnt support PHP3.
