Major Additions - [AJAX] EWT Chat 3.0.1 Lite

This is a php/mySQL powered chat system.

EWT Chat 3.0.0 Lite Changes
-Complete Recode
-Enhanced ajax which performs much faster and should allow for an additional load of 500% compared to the last release of 2.9.x
-Many changes to everything
-Remove private message system for now
-Remove /cmds besides /me for now

EWT Chat 3.0.01 Lite Changes
-Redid layout and javascript for planned changes to the pro side and to make things look cleaner.
-fixed various little things.

Whats the difference between pro and lite?
Lite:
The lite version supports only one chat room with no ability to create custom rooms.
It doesnt have any user preferences anymore either.
Basic yet functional chatroom without advanced features

Pro: (Still being developed)
Ability to create custom and private rooms
Plus many more things soon to come.

I think this release fixes every reported bug that I have read about.




Version 2.9.x to 3.0.0 Upgrade Steps:
Upload all the files
Upload the product file
Delete any old files from the previous versions
Disable the minichat addon if you have it for now as it wont work with v3 just yet until I release an updated version.
Open up the fresh install readme and follow the steps for editing ajax_chat.php (just a few settings I didnt feel we needed to use a query for)


2.9.1 to 2.9.2 Upgrade Steps:
Open up template navbar find:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

function OpenvBChat(){
vBChat = window.open('vBChat.php?$session[sessionurl]','vBChat','directories=no,height='+window.screen.height+',width='+window.screen.width+',location=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,status=no,toolbar=no')

return false;
}

-->
</script>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="vBChat.php?$session[sessionurl]" onclick="return OpenvBChat();">vBChat</a></td>

Replace with:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

function OpenvBChat(){
vBChat = window.open('chat.php?$session[sessionurl]','vBChat','directories=no,height='+window.screen.height+',width='+window.screen.width+',location=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,status=no,toolbar=no')

return false;
}

-->
</script>
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="chat.php?$session[sessionurl]" onclick="return OpenvBChat();">vBChat</a></td>

Please if you use this hack click install and feel free to donate to help support the future development of this system.


V3 is a highlight release for this product as it runs and performs much faster then ever before and can now handle a considerable amt of load.

This chat script should technically be able to support 1k+ users on a good high end server.

Why not make a list between the pro and lite version... and then a list of things you are debating whether to put in the lite version?

Im still playing with v3 on my test site before I upload it to my main site to make sure it's ready for deployment. Im also waiting for the chatbox addon for v3.

[Neal-UK]

Has anyone else had any issues with this since the update or was it just me? Is it all working again?

[Neal-UK]

Right just re-installed this and it wont work on any styles other than a Nature one i'm using, any suggestions?

When I say work, I mean having the text show.

[Ryloth]

Yeah, my chat text doesn't show anymore.

[Strafe]

Could we add a Who's Online feature for this mod.

[eXtremeTim]

Okay the following two bugs have been confirmed.

IE returns javascript system error on certain sites.

IE has issues with the scrolling to the bottom of the div.

Anybody who has the javascript returning the system error please pm me any details you can about your setup.

A simple fix would be for everyone to just use FireFox.

Also, any word on the minichat addon revision to work with v3?

[eXtremeTim]

Minichat is slated to be done tommorrow.

Anybody who was having charset problems please contact me as I have figure out the fix.

[Ryloth]

I'm having problem with IE and chat. What info do you need?
