never find the time to translate everything and to release it here

Can you just post the files over here as they are? I'm fine with a german version, I just want a version that works!
I can't seem to register or log onto the german site, even though i've set the right settings over at vbulletin.com


Please please pleas

I don't think that the team here will give a ok for it, but you can download it from vb-germany without problems

I've tried, my german is "ok" but even with babelfish i can't seem to register or log on.
And you can't download the zip without being logged on

I'm having the same trouble with the french site too, vbulletin.org was no problem though.

[S]You guys might be the best ones to ask this, I have tried to install the package, (using Allan's method above)
it says it's been installed, asks me to delete the install.php files which I do.

But when I try to load the chat/index.php all I get is this

Query: SELECT userID, userName, userRole, channel, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(dateTime) AS timeStamp, ip FROM ``.ajax_chat_online ORDER BY userName; Error-Report: Incorrect database name '' Error-Code: 1102

Am I doing something really really stupid? [/S]

Ok ignore all that, I was being stupid, hadn't used the correct settings in config.php
Got AJAX chat working perfectlyon my site.

I finally got the french translation version working w/ lots of use of google translator

FAIL! I registered at that German forum to get the add-on and still get "permission denied" when I try to download it.

Having a way to integrate Ajax with vbulletin would be awesome. I'm not looking for anything super fancy, just make it so that users don't have to log in with a second login information...

Anyone had luck on making an english version?

I second this... maybe someone who got it working could write up some English instructions?

I really am not concerned with the 'intergration' into the templates, however my members called for a Who's In Chat feature, like the one created for Flashchat on vB4.

I have created one off looking at how Who's In Flashchat 6. It is still not completed, however I am using it on my forum and will work on finishing it up today. I have yet to create a vB4 Mod, so packaging it will come and go.

You can see what I am talking about here:

Still working on it, and customizing the templates and options

Hi.

I installed Ajax Chat 0.8.3 on my forum with vbulletin 3.8.4 and its running perfect but before I used Cyb Chatbox as shoutbox on my forumhome just below de navbar and I liked that a lot.

The readme file of ajax chat says

Shoutbox:
=========

AJAX Chat is also usable as shoutbox - this is a short guide on how to set it up:


1. Shoutbox stylesheet
----------------------

Add the following line to the stylesheet (CSS) of all pages displaying the shoutbox:

@import url("http://example.org/path/to/chat/css/shoutbox.css");

Replace http://example.org/path/to/chat/ with the URL to the chat.
Modify css/shoutbox.css to your liking.


2. Shoutbox function
--------------------

Add the following function to your PHP code:

<?php
function getShoutBoxContent() {
// URL to the chat directory:
if(!defined('AJAX_CHAT_URL')) {
define('AJAX_CHAT_URL', './chat/');
}

// Path to the chat directory:
if(!defined('AJAX_CHAT_PATH')) {
define('AJAX_CHAT_PATH', realpath(dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']).'/chat').'/');
}

// Validate the path to the chat:
if(@is_file(AJAX_CHAT_PATH.'lib/classes.php')) {

// Include Class libraries:
require_once(AJAX_CHAT_PATH.'lib/classes.php');

// Initialize the shoutbox:
$ajaxChat = new CustomAJAXChatShoutBox();

// Parse and return the shoutbox template content:
return $ajaxChat->getShoutBoxContent();
}

return null;
}
?>

Make sure AJAX_CHAT_URL and AJAX_CHAT_PATH point to the chat directory.


2. Shoutbox output
------------------

Display the shoutbox content using the shoutbox function:

<div style="width:200px;"><?php echo getShoutBoxContent(); ?></div>

But to be honest I have no clue which files to change with above instructions. So my question is: does anybody know in which files I should paste step one, the stylesheet, in which file and where I should put the function and where exactly to put the output string?

I've searched a lot in many forums but didn't find the solution untill now.

Thanks a lot for your help!!
