[DONE 1.5.1]Integrated Chat Mod Version 2.0

[brodle]

If I give this a try .. at what point do I have to register it?
I'd like to first test it before I go ahead and install it on my public board (I run a private forum as well for testing out new mods).

So would I be able to test how it performs before uploading it to my server and register it?

First off the only registring is registring whatever room name and nickname you want to be owner/moderator of your chat room. This is free and doesnt ask for any information. It allows you to changed the options in the chat room. YOu can install it on your test forum first then add the mod in and use the same room or add a new room. To keep it private you can make the room secret ( most do ) in the room options and also rmeove the rooms tab that list the other chat rooms on the servers.

Check it out.. let us know if you have any questions.

I had that same problem, it's because the file in that line now has an extra attribute in the img tag

you have to open the file by hand and take that attribute away so that BoardMod can work fine (make sure it matches what BoardMod is looking for)

search for the line using that text up to the "alt" attribute, like here

$img['admin'] = '<img src="' . $imagesdir . $langimages . '/admin.gif" alt="'

someone correct me if I'm wrong, I did it the other day and didn't learn it by heart, but I'm pretty sure that's the one hahaha  

Okay, thx for your quick answer  

But you see! I'm newbie to that Boardmod stuff, so may I ask: What file should I open by hand?

I wil be happy for your help  

Cheers

Doesn't look like this has been answered by anyone so here goes, Steen:

In english.lng you need to search for and replace

$img['admin'] = '<img src="' . $imagesdir . $langimages . '/admin.gif" alt="' . $txt[2] . '" title="' . $txt[2] . '" border="0" />';

with

$img['admin'] = '<img src="' . $imagesdir . $langimages . '/admin.gif" alt="' . $txt[2] . '" border="0" />';

That'll get rid of the error message you get in Step 4 when installing via BoardMod

Great mod guys ..
best thing since sliced bread .. and YaBBSE  

I can't seem to be able to register my room  

I'm double .. triple .. and quadruple clicking on the register button but it won't do anything .. how come?

Could it be that there may already be a room with the same name as mine?

I do apologize, ladies and gentlemen, for crowding the board with so many posts ..
just wanted to let you guys know that I finally was able to register my room and nick after all .. I got a dual boot comp (WinXP Pro and RedHat Linux 8.0).
I couldn't register in Linux .. but once booted in Windows it registered without any problems.

What browser and java where you using in Linux? If you could join a room

http://irc.everywherechat.com:8000/?room=soemromhere

and try to register it and send me the java console I can see if I can fix that.

Ok I have tried installing this mod with BoardmodSE

But since im running Pfabb I am encountering a problem
searching for this file in my subs.php.

It seems the line just doesnt exist!

Code Select Expand


      $yymenu .= "$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=profile;user=$euser\">$img[profile]</a>";

[haase]

CR, CrazyC posted a fix for that back at the PfaBB site.

[CrazyC]

But since im running Pfabb I am encountering a problem
searching for this file in my subs.php.

Just today, I modified this mod to work with PfaBB and posted a link to the updated files over on the PfaBB site.

I hope you don't mind Goose?  The only thing I changed was:
1. added a query to the db file because of Pfabb's special link column used in the menu section.
2.  and modified the lines in the .mod file that change the menu vairable in Subs.php.
3. added instructions to install Haase's Enhanced Block for Integrated Chat mod (currently pfabb only, but could be editted to work with YaBB in the template file)

I left all of your original notes, instructions and credits alone.  Just added the additional instructions at the beginning of the .mod file in the description section.

[CrimSon_ReD]

Ok for some reason in my control panel under
installed mods I have two chat preferences sections.

And can some tell me the url to use to call your chatroom.

Also where the instructions readme file that was supposed to be in this zipfile?

Since you are using PfaBB, I am assuming some of the problems have to do with my conversion.  Which should probably be posted on the PfaBB site, but I'll reply here anyway for now because some of the info may help other users.

Hmm, sounds like you somehow managed to install the .mod file twice.  It is possible that on some mod files you can do this to double the code.  (you didn't use both of the mod files in my converted package, did you?)

The url for the chat room that's included in the original  mod file is:  <a href=\"$scripturl?action=chat;user=$euser\" target=_blank>$img[chat]</a>
However, since you're using PfaBB, it doesn't matter what you enter for the url in Menu Preferences because that's one of those "Special" links which will work with a blank url field.  If you ran the converted dbmod that I created, it will set it up automatically for any member of your site.

ok being that my menu is not composed of the standard menu but it is composed of a flash menu calling the urls.

I cant seem to use that url you gave me...
Can you give me a direct url like:

http://www.yourcommunity.com/yabbse/index.php=action: whatever!

[CrimSon_ReD]

I resolved the double preference issue by uninstalling one of those mods.


Now linkwise:

When I use a url such as:
http://www.phatscorts.com/community/index.php?action=chat;user=$euser

The user name doesnt come up only does the abbrv _ps
Anyway to resolve that!?

[haase]

Jeezus...  put a little more effort into it C_R.  You're being positively ignorant.

Look at his Code:

Code Select Expand


<a href=\"$scripturl?action=chat;user=$euser\" target=_blank>$img[chat]</a>

replace $cripturl with www.yourcommunity.com/yabbse/index.php.

If you've gotten your profile button to work correctly in Flash, then you should be able to make the chat button work...  they are IDENTICAL...  just take your profile link and replace the word "profile" with the word "chat".

You're being about as resourceful as a dead skunk.  No wonder CC has been all ticked off today.

[CrimSon_ReD]

check it I thank you for your assistance but bashing
me by calling me ignorant is unneccesary and quite unprofessional.

Sorry im a flasher not a php coder, so cut me a break!

if you are going to assist someone try not to insult them.
because that doesnt solve anything!

I appreciate CC's help and I even PM'ed him to thank him, Im not one of these people in here who doesnt know how to say thank you.

If he's pissed it isnt at me or anything I have done.
So chill with the sarcasm!
Cause that's not wanted nor appreciated!
