FlashChat Integration
Version 1.0 released! Note that if you had version 0.1 installed, you will NEED to uninstall it before installing the new version!
This mod will seamlessly integrate FlashChat into your SMF installation. It adds a 'Chat' link to the top menu, and users that are logged in to the chat appear under Users Online as "Users currently in chat" (and optionally at the top of the forum). This mod also fixes a small bug in FlashChat :)

Prerequisites
You must have already purchased and installed FlashChat into the chat directory (as per the instructions for integrating with SMF), and it must be working. Also note that you do not need to edit the Themes/default/index.template.php file to add a button (like the instructions say to), as this mod does that automatically.
FlashChat can be purchased from http://www.tufat.com/s_flash_chat_chatroom.htm
Support
Support for this mod is given in my forum, at http://www.daniel15.com/.
Note that I do not provide support for FlashChat, that is up to http://www.tufat.com/! I just provide support for this mod.
NOTE: For anyone with the 'Googlebot and Spiders' mod installed, you may install this mod, but two of the edits (SSI.php and BoardIndex.template.php) will fail (due to both the Googlebot and Spiders mod and this mod editing the same code). You may continue to install this mod (it will install successfully), but please see this post for what to do after installation.
Edit: This is currently NOT up-to-date. Please check back later for updated instructions on installing this mod alongside the Googlebot mod!
Theme Changes
Please see http://www.daniel15.com/forum/index.php/topic,856.html for the theme changes required to support this mod.

Any suggestions or workaround?
Elegant John:
I got the same errors but they were simple to fix by manually modding the effected files.
Look in install.xml to find the changes.
Works perfectly now though.
I would make the comment that more people should go the extra mile as Bloc does when he writes the manual mod instructions for his mods. Some of these here are complex and it makess it very easy to screw the pooch.
But, excellent mod
Daniel15:
Sorry about the errors, the package seems to work fine on a fresh SMF installation... Do any of you have the 'Googlebot and Spiders' mod? Since both that mod and my mod edit the "Users Online" section, that's what could be causing the conflict.

In that case, I'd point you to http://server.daniel15.com/smf/package.php :D

LOL.. yeah.. I'd call that a DAMNED good tutorial. ;) WAS very cut and dry!
Now then..ass kissing aside.. I have an issue pls. ;)
Im using a v.1.1.1 template called "Spikey" found here: http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?lemma=81
When you said this:
"Theme Changes
To install this on your custom theme (so it shows the users in the chat under Users Online), open Themes/[theme name]/BoardIndex.template.php"
The problem is.. on "Spikey", there isn't a BoardIndex.template.php.
Yet, even though I AM able to see who is in chat at bottom, there is no link found anywhere at the top to get to chat.
Have any thoughts here?
