VB eIRC chat intergration hack 1.0 · **Released**: 04-13-2002

VERSION 2.0 - UPDATED FOR VB3.0.7
Now Even Easier To Install!!! - Enjoy

NOTE: VERSION 2 is for VBulleting 3.0.7, VERSION 1 is for 2.2.x
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD THE CORRECT VERSION...

1 x new template
1 x file upload
1 x template edit (Optional I guess, you could put the link to your chatroom anywhere you like....)

P.S. You will need to add the templete to each style your site uses and edit to suit...

---------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a very very easy hack to install and must be one of the easiest and best free ways to add chat to your forums. This hack uses Eirc java applets to connect to World IRC servers. There is no need to sign and compile Eirc yourself or even host it or a irc server, simply follow these instructions and you will have FREE, full, IRC chat on your forums in under 2 minutes...

For a demo, checkout the chat running here at vbullettin.org ( https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/chat.php? ) as it uses the same java applets and basicly is the same as this hack...

Once you have installed the hack pop into #austech and say hello...

Thanks & Enjoy...

Although Version 1.0 for VB2.2.x is still working and also still available, I DO NOT offer support for it...

Funny thing about this hack... the server path is the EXACT same thing it is on my server

Note:
if you want a _ instead of a space and your using my setup replace

PHP Code:


			
$chatusername=str_replace(" ","",$bbuserinfo[username]);

with

PHP Code:


			
$chatusername=str_replace(" ","_",$bbuserinfo[username]);

Great! I got it installed; however, my links back to my forum, members, calender, etc. are all linked to my chat directory and won't get users back to the forum (or any of the links). How do I change this? Thanks.

you could install my version them place the chat.php into your forum folder, thats would fix it

bluecat · #88 04-22-2002, 01:19 AM

Where do I get your version? Or am I reading this wrong.

bluecat · #89 04-22-2002, 02:05 AM

I just changed the index.php (for the chat) to indexchat.php, and dropped it in my forum's directory, and fixed the problem. Is this ok to do? It's working fine.

Slynderdale · #90 04-23-2002, 01:18 PM

its the one i posted above that uses a small 3 lines php file and a template for the chat, if you name it other then chat.php just change the name in online.php

Thanks for this hack, I found that if I was to install this in another directory say called /chat/index.php/3
I would have to upload my forum images into the chat directory, so I renamed the index.php to chat.php and uploaded it into the forum directory without having to upload any images and it works fine,

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
