Who's In Chat for FlashChat

This is a mod for use with FlashChat - a $5 chat script that is worth WAY more than $5.

FlashChat can be purchased at http://www.tufat.com

Out of the box, FlashChat works with Vbulletin 3.

no problem, the only other thing I was trying to do was figure out the colored usernames but I'm not sure how vb pulls that info.

I found a way to do it but it probably would have added a ton of queries everytime the page was loaded.

Anyones knows how can this be added as a block in the index page of vbadvanced CMPS, thanks

I am not sure why some of you had problems with the arcade. I never did, with either of the arcades that I used.

To get this working on vb3.0.5 I add to change the phpinclude_start to

ob_start();
include('./flashchat/info.php');
$your_code = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

Rather than use Require. I hope that helps.

Did you mean the config.php file? I can't find a config.sys file, and I am having the same problem. I have also tried changing from "required" to "include", and that didn't work either. I have done a chmod with smartftp on my txt file (777), so I am out of ideas.

For what it's worth the file that needs updated in Flashchat 4.0.1 to clear this problem is config.php now. You need absolute paths for both the
'appdata_path' ( for appTime.txt) and
'botsdata_path' (for bots.txt)

However, that isn't all of it. I am still getting an error in info.php. The line number probably differs from your installation but the error reads

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/domain/public_html/chat/info.php on line 79

(This is line 79)

while($rec = $rs->next()) $list[] = $rec;

I don't get that error when I run info.php from the command line, only when I try to bring it in through vbulletin.

Regards,
