AjaxChat Integration (latest version 3.2.1)

[philcross]

@ philcross I just went to your site in IE and FF and it looks fine in both browsers. I don't see any flickering at all.

Hi

I just tried with my testing account (name and p/word both "testing") and I get the same.

It only seemed to happen AFTER I had clicked on the Chat button.

The avatar flickers on and off and I get vertical line breakup across the menu bar.

It is your computer or browser. What browser are you using ... FireFox, Internet Explore Version 8 ..... etc

[philcross]

Im using IE7.

Just tried with FF and it seems to be OK with that.

1.1.8 = same exact thing as 1.1.9 just the only difference is in the package-info.xml its not updated on 1 small line to say to install for 1.1.9 instead of 1.1.8 ... to solve that go here

OK next problem 

When I click on Chat (pop-up mode) I get a "type error: object doesnt support this property or method" error box.

I can close it and carry on in chat, but would like to remove that initial warning.

Thanks

Attach those 3 files. AJAXChat.php, CustomAJAXChat.php, and AJAXChatTemplate.php

[philcross]

Sorry - I went back into the php files and double-checked some items.

For the board styles, I had deleted the whole text for board style and just left the default line - thats what caused the error.

Ive now changed the board options to include Core and the default as Core and it seems OK.

Welcome to...message works
Chat name works OK too.

HOWEVER, I do still get the object error message.

I would also like to get rid of all these options from right side panel if possible?

•List ignored users
•List available channels
•Describe action
•Roll dice
•Change username
•Enter private room
•List banned users

@ philcross

Your object error is your Browser not the chat, I take it you use IE 6 or 7? Here is some info on it.

Never tried removing any commands but here is a little info on that as well.

Definitely his problem!

Hi Guys

1) I upgraded to IE8 and still have the problem - it only pops up if I try to click on message line before the pop-up window has finished loading icons etc.

2) When I logout of chat it sends me back to the forum (as i changed to mod) BUT in IE8 it sends me to a static page ie there is no scroll bar to view the whole forum page.

3) Is there a way to delete the chat history when the last person leaves the chat room? At present, you can login 3 days later and read all the previous chat between other people.

4) I have changed MOD to just the Public room BUT there is also a room with members name [name] - when clicked it takes you to another room. How do I remove this to only have public.

5) Previously, when you click Chat you were auto-logged-in. Now you have to manually type name and password. Not sure if thats an IE8 issue?

Sorry for all questions.

Hi Guys

I dont know right now have to look into it


2) When I logout of chat it sends me back to the forum (as i changed to mod) BUT in IE8 it sends me to a static page ie there is no scroll bar to view the whole forum page.

Go to chat/lib/config.php and play with those settings in there. For this exact question maybe you can play with these settings:

Code Select Expand


// Defines if messages are shown which have been sent before the user entered the channel:
$config['requestMessagesPriorChannelEnter'] = true;
// Defines an array of channelIDs (e.g. array(0, 1)) for which the previous setting is always true (will be ignored if set to null):
$config['requestMessagesPriorChannelEnterList'] = null;
// Max time difference in hours for messages to display on each request:
$config['requestMessagesTimeDiff'] = 24;
// Max number of messages to display on each request:
$config['requestMessagesLimit'] = 10;


4) I have changed MOD to just the Public room BUT there is also a room with members name [name] - when clicked it takes you to another room. How do I remove this to only have public.
This is happening because you are allowing members to have private rooms. To have ONLY public room and thats it no private rooms or set your settings like this in chat/lib/config.php:

Code Select Expand


// Default channelName used together with the defaultChannelID if no channel with this ID exists:
$config['defaultChannelName'] = 'Public';
// ChannelID used when no channel is given:
$config['defaultChannelID'] = 0;
// Defines an array of channelIDs (e.g. array(0, 1)) to limit the number of available channels, will be ignored if set to null:
$config['limitChannelList'] = array(0);


Code Select Expand


// Enable/Disable private Channels:
$config['allowPrivateChannels'] = false;


5) Previously, when you click Chat you were auto-logged-in. Now you have to manually type name and password. Not sure if thats an IE8 issue?
A trick ... at least it works for me either click on chat .... and the login window pops up. Click the X and click chat again may have to do it two or three times then it brings you straight into the chat. Also if you go to the login page for the chat (where you put in name and pass) without putting in anything right away click login ... it should skip the process and login with your forum info. (at least these tricks work for me).

Sorry for all questions.

Actually, it just happens when pop-up chat window opens NOT when i click in message area.

2) When I logout of chat it sends me back to the forum (as i changed to mod) BUT in IE8 it sends me to a static page ie there is no scroll bar to view the whole forum page.

Looked again and its sending me to a pop-up page hence no scroll bar etc.

Go to chat/lib/config.php and play with those settings in there. For this exact question maybe you can play with these settings:

Code: [Select]

Did the above and no previous posts are showing BUT I cannot make any posts either.

Hey,
I'm using Fresh Blue Theme by BrKn*.
I'm having trouble manually modifying it.
I can do some of the code but for example...

Code Select Expand

// But, let's always show minutes - Time wasted here: 0 minutes ;).
echo $context['user']['total_time_logged_in']['minutes'], $txt['totalTimeLogged4'], '<br />';
}
echo ' </span>';
}

      

Does not exist whatsover in index.template.php

There's nothing even relating to any of that in index.template.php.

Can you please help me modify this theme for this mod?
Would be appreciated!

[purper]

this might be a strange question, but what do I have to do to delete the chat?
The reason I ask is because I have the impression just deleting it from the forum is not good enough.. directories etc still exist on in the directory of the forum..?

For 1 & 2 I still have to look into it (busy with my own site) for 3 you need to play with the settings. I just have mine set like it shows and it works fine (all the above are a copy paste from mine). For 5 if it happens again just do what I said .

Let mrtrc266 come back with an idea for this

Use the uninstall in the package manager. If anything fails in the uninstall or you have it installed on a custom theme then you need to go to the mod and parse it and do a manual install of everything in the files.

This edit will not be exaclty the same in all themes. It shows the number of users in chat in the user info section on the top right or left of your theme, something like this   

June 06, 2009, 09:48:06 PM
Show unread posts since last visit.
Show new replies to your posts.  Logged in: 1 hours and 7 minutes.
2 Users in chat
Attach you index.template file and I'll take a look.

Also what version of SMF do you have?
