Simple Machines Community Forum

Hello folks, this is my attempt to give something back to the community.
I am running SMF 1.0 RC1 and I wanted to have a chat in my board. I have tried about 3 or 4 scripts and I must say I couldn't deal with how slow Java chats are and how imprecisely those applets render on different browsers. I am a supporter of PHP's power and if that means I have to accept some Flash (Flash ain't that bad and is much muuuuch faster than java), I'll gladly do it as long as the chat has the features I wanted, first and foremost integration with SMF in terms of user database.
The chat that does that is FlashChat which you can buy at a honest and fair price (finally somebody understood you can't charge houndreds!) from http://www.tufat.com
I bought my software and installed the chat. I will not explain how to install it in SMF because the package contains pretty detailed instructions on how to do that (except the SMF integration instructions forget to tell you that you have to CHMOD 777 the appdata/appTime.txt file and forgets to provide you with the chat gif button that you'll be able to request to the software dude via email or download from somewhere else).
Once you install the chat you can further graphically enhance it and make it similar to your board by using styles and themes. Documentation is included (even if not excellent).
This said, here come my two cents:
What I did NOT like about this chat is the fact that it would open in a new window completely ignoring the template and style and theme of SMF. So you have a chat that recognizes your registered users because it uses the same database but it launches independently and looks completely different and is an "outsider" to the board. Here is how you can change this. These instructions will launch your chat inside the board's theme/template so that you still have the header of the board above the chat and the footer of the board below it. I hope you know what I mean. Basically you have your chat but above it you have that piece of SMF that you see in every single SMF page except the help pages. And same below.
Here is how (I assume that you installed SMF in the folder called /smf/ and that you are using the default theme - if you are not just change "/smf/" with the name of your smf folder on your server and change "default" with the name of your theme's folder inside the /Themes/ directory of yoru SMF installation):
1. open /smf/index.php
2. find this line:
'boardrecount' => array('Admin.php', 'AdminBoardRecount'),
and after that code add this code:
'chat' => array('Chat.php', 'Chat'),
3. create a file called Chat.php with your text-only editor such as NotePad (PC) or BBEdit (Mac) and add this code inside it:
<?php
if (!defined('SMF'))
die('Hacking attempt...');

function Chat() {
// This is gonna be needed...
loadTemplate('Chat');
}
?>
4. save this file inside /smf/Sources
5. create a file called Chat.template.php with your text-only editor such as NotePad (PC) or BBEdit (Mac) and add this code inside it:
<?php
// Version: 1.0 RC1; Chat

function template_main()
{
global $context, $settings, $options, $txt, $scripturl;

echo '
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!--
function checkAll(onOff)
{
for (var i = 0; i < document.searchform.elements.length; i++)
{
if (document.searchform.elements[i].name.substr(0, 3) == "brd")
document.searchform.elements[i].checked = onOff;
}
}
// --></script>
<form action="', $scripturl, '?action=search2" method="post" name="searchform" id="searchform">
<table width="80%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" align="center">
<tr>
<td>', theme_linktree(), '</td>
</tr>
</table>

<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" align="center" class="tborder">
<tr class="titlebg">
<td>Chat</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="windowbg">';

// load the chat
echo '<iframe width="100%" height="450" src="http://www.yourserver.com/smf/FlashChat/flashchat.php"></iframe>';

echo '
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>';
}

?>
6. save this file inside /smf/Themes/default/
7. the code above assumes that your server is called www.yourserver.com and that you have installed SMF in the root's folder "smf" and FlashChat in its subfolder "FlashChat". You don't need the full URL, you can also (and it is recommended that you do) use "FlashChat/flashchat.php" as your URL if you have created the "FlashChat" folder inside the "smf" folder. Change paths according to your installation. [#NOTE: please read note below]
8. in that same folder open /smf/Themes/default/index.template.php and at the end of the file (I am assuming that you have ALREADY installed FlashChat and followed all the SMF integration instructions carefully, thus modified this file beforehand) find this bit of code:
<a href="', $GLOBALS['boardurl'], '/FlashChat/flashchat.php">
and change just that one bit of code (which is part of an entire line of code - you are NOT supposed to change or delete the rest of that line) it into this:
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=chat">

#NOTE: I have resorted to using iframe because I could not get include or require to work but if some PHP genius out there can explain me why I wouldn't be able to include("http://www.yourserver.com/smf/FlashChat/flashchat.php"); or to require("http://www.yourserver.com/smf/FlashChat/flashchat.php"); I'd be very thankful for that and I'd recommend using this option as opposed to the iframe thing that doesn't work on some browsers like older Netscapes...


UPDATE (October 14th 2004) - "Users in Chat":

Ok, here is an update on how to COMPLETELY and TOTALLY integrate FlashChat into an SMF template. Thanks to AxeCrazy who provided me with the core code to do this.
Please note that in this tutorial update it is assumed that your MySQL's table prefix is "smf_" as in every case of a fresh installation of SMF. If you have upgraded your forum from a YaBB SE installation your table prefix will most likely be "yabbse_", therefore you will have to change every instance of  smf_fc_connections with yabbse_fc_connections. This said let's rock'n'roll!

Ths tutorial addition will show you two things:
A. how to show how many of the currently online users are actually in the chat (this will be shown in the ONLINE USERS section at the bottom of the INDEX page)
B. how to add a text at the top of the page (under the navigation menu with all the buttons) that says how many users are in the chat
In both cases I implemented a few easy but neat tricks that will avoid that text to be shown when you are in the chat page and that will make sure the sentece is grammatically correct, in terms of singular and plural.


SUB-TUTORIAL #1: INDEX PAGE "Users in Chat" integration (the number of users in the chat will appear in the ONLINE USERS section, right next to where it says "X visitors, X users").

1. Open smf/Themes/default/BoardIndex.template.php
2. search for the comment string:
// "Users online" - in order of activity
3. right after that line, before the following echo statement, add this code:
    $chatrequest = db_query("
            SELECT COUNT(*) AS numb
            FROM  smf_fc_connections
            WHERE userid IS NOT NULL", __FILE__, __LINE__);
         list ($chatcount) = mysql_fetch_row($chatrequest);   
         mysql_free_result($chatrequest);
     
if ( $chatcount == "1" ) {
$singularplural2 = "";
} else {
$singularplural2 = "s";
}
4. a few lines below you'll see a long line (part of the above mentioned echo statement) that should look like this:
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=who">', $context['num_guests'], ' ', $context['num_guests'] == 1 ? $txt['guest'] : $txt['guests'], ', ', $context['num_users_online'], ' ', $context['num_users_online'] == 1 ? $txt['user'] : $txt['users'], (empty($context['num_users_hidden']) ? '' : ' (' . $context['num_users_hidden'] . ' ' . $txt['hidden'] . ')'), '</a><br />

5. replace that line with this one:
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=who">', $context['num_guests'], ' ', $context['num_guests'] == 1 ? $txt['guest'] : $txt['guests'], ', ', $context['num_users_online'], ' ', $context['num_users_online'] == 1 ? $txt['user'] : $txt['users'], (empty($context['num_users_hidden']) ? '' : ' (' . $context['num_users_hidden'] . ' ' . $txt['hidden'] . ')'), ', ' . $chatcount . ' User'.$singularplural2.' in Chat</a><br />

6. You are done. This will make your forum's index page bottom read something like: "0 Visitors, 4 Users, 2 Users in Chat". Please note that my code does actually take into account the possibility that just one user is online and will adjust the sentence grammatically so that it will read "1 User in Chat", as opposed to "1 Users in Chat", which we all know is wrong, don't we? ;)


SUB-TUTORIAL #2: add "Users in Chat" sentence in ALL pages except the chat page itself (this will add a sentence at the top of your board section, right below the INDEX, HELP, SEARCH, ADMIN, PROFILE, CALENDAR, CHAT, LOG OUT navigation bar buttons). My code will adjust the sentence to make sure it is grammatically correct AND it will NOT show the sentence in the actual chat page becase the user doesn't need to see it (he/she already has this information from the chat room) and because the user count would not be up to date, since the page was already parsed and doesn't update in real time, like the chat room does.

1. Open smf/Themes/default/index.template.php
2. search for the comment string:
// The main content should go here
3. right after that line there is a two line echo statement that opens the tags <table>, <tr> and <td>.
4. Right after those two lines add this code:
     $chatrequest = db_query("
            SELECT COUNT(*) AS numb
            FROM  smf_fc_connections
            WHERE userid IS NOT NULL", __FILE__, __LINE__);
         list ($chatcount) = mysql_fetch_row($chatrequest);   
         mysql_free_result($chatrequest);
         
if ( @$_GET['action'] != "chat" ) {
if ( $chatcount == "1" ) {
$singularplural1 = " is ";
$singularplural2 = "";
} else {
$singularplural1 = " are ";
$singularplural2 = "s";
}
echo '
Currently there ' . $singularplural1 . ' <font color="#FF0000">' . $chatcount . ' User'.$singularplural2.' in the Chat!</font><br>';
}
If for some reason you want the line to appear ONLY if there actually IS somebody in the Chat, then you can use instead of the code above this code:
     $chatrequest = db_query("
            SELECT COUNT(*) AS numb
            FROM  smf_fc_connections
            WHERE userid IS NOT NULL", __FILE__, __LINE__);
         list ($chatcount) = mysql_fetch_row($chatrequest);   
         mysql_free_result($chatrequest);
         
if ( @$_GET['action'] != "chat" ) {
if ( $chatcount == "1" ) {
$singularplural1 = " is ";
$singularplural2 = "";
} else {
$singularplural1 = " are ";
$singularplural2 = "s";
}
if ( $chatcount != 0 )
echo 'Currently there ' . $singularplural1 . ' <font color="#FF0000">' . $chatcount . ' User'.$singularplural2.' in the Chat!</font><br>';
}
5. You are done. This will make all your forum's pages read something like this at the top: "Currently there are 2 Users in the Chat!". Please note that my code does actually take into account the possibility that just one user is online and will adjust the sentence grammatically so that it will read "Currently there is 1 User in the Chat!", as opposed to "Currently there are 1 Users in the Chat!", which we all know is wrong, don't we? ;)
In addition to that, as I was explaining above, it does NOT show the line in the actual INTEGRATED chat page because the user count would not be up to date with what is happening in real time inside the chat room.

I hope this will help everybody and make your forum/chat experience even more enjoyable!

Thanks for taking the time to write up this tutorial.  When I get a chance I'll give it a go.   :)

You are very welcome, like I said I want to give something back to this community who has always helped me with my YaBBGold/YaBBSE/SMFBeta/SMF1.0 issues.
Now I just wish somebody would figure out how to tell visitors/users on the board how many are in the chat PLUS I wish the SMF people finally came out with their CMS integration...

Hey, this is cool! This is the best looking chatroom I've ever seen! Very smooth and efficient.
Does it consume a lot of bandwidth?

This questions should be addressed to the manufacturer of the sw. I am just a user like you ;-)

Thanks for the tutorial marcnyc, I also added video and audio plugins to the chat.  ;)

Where did you do that? Can I see it?
Did anybody figure out how to check how many users are in the chat and display it in the forum's index page?

Marc,

Thanks alot for your write up.  I have since purchased and installed the product with no problems whatsoever.  Although when I did email Daniela bout the chat_icon.gif, he said it was already included.

I'll have to check on that when I get home.

Thanks again!

I didn't see the icon anywhere but if you can find it good for you. I didn't even need it because I am using the Aquamania theme and luckily Andrea had provided a chat icon with that theme already! Andrea rocks...

Login with

username= fb3
password= fb3

http://www.babylonking.net/forum/

After you login click the chat button.  :)

That's just great.  Your site constantly amazes me (i'm registered as ChillyP, btw)!
You even have icons depicting each user?  Nice touch man.

It's nice to see my tutorial implemented for real for the first time ;-) I am excited ;-P
I should check out the plug ins, I didn't even know there were plug ins for FlashChat.
Nice theme by the way, what is it?

i also included the flashchat now.
It rocks.

working on the user counter

let me know how it goes on the user counter... I haven't had time to get to it yet, but a hint is here:
I noticed that there is a user counter in the php page that you access if you go to the root of your FlashChat folder (basically if you access it bypassing the forum). In the top right corner of the PHP log in page of the FlashChat files there is a link that takes you to a counter so I guess we could start from there and use that code... anyway, if you figure it out please post it and let me know...

Babylonking, where did you find those plug ins? I didn't find them on the tufat site...

well got it working.
in the index.template.php find the part where you put in the chat button.
just before that add.

Zitat$request = db_query("
            SELECT COUNT(*) AS numb
            FROM  yabbse_fc_connections
            WHERE userid IS NOT NULL", __FILE__, __LINE__);
         list ($count) = mysql_fetch_row($request);    
         mysql_free_result($request);

the yabbse_fc_connections should be replaced by your $prefix_fc_connections
next i replace the alt "Chat"in the button with alt="' . $count . ' users in chat".
Works great.
kinda quick and dirty, but ok

used that before, but that gave a somwhat bulky overview.
I just wanted a quick indicator, but it is more or less the same code ;)

Hi AxeCrazy, I have tested and implemented your code. I have added some tweaks in order to make it grammatically-compliant and in order to have it appear in the index page (and if you choose to) in all the pages of the forum, at the top. Please look at the initial post of this topic (my tutorial) as I have updated the tutorial and added all of these information and explained how to implement these two changes. I have chosen to rename the variables $chatrequest and $chatcount, simply because request and count are pretty common words and I wanted to avoid possible conflicts, as I am not familiar with the internal structure of SMF and they might have already been used/reserved in other instances

Unfortunately I don't know how resource intensive it is. I haven't had any issues, to answer your questions, but I have 12Gb monthly bandwidth transfer available. You might want to address these questions to the manufacturer or install some bandwidth profiler script on your server to monitor it. If you have any hard facts data please post them as I am curious about this as well.

I'm worried about server loads, not really bandwidth.  Either way, I've emailed the author -- we'll see what he says.  :)

Nice i really like the line to appear ONLY if there actually IS somebody in the Chat.

good work marcnyc  :)

Is CutePHP integrated with your forum and sharing the same database?

No, main index news is different than the forum news  :)

Hey Marc,

I was able to apply the first part of your post with no issues, and it worked flawlessly.

Now, for the latest 2 that you put up (in regards to showing the number of users in chat), I am not seeing any changes.  Any thoughts?

Thanks!

I need more info. Did you do everything and got no errors? Were you able to follow all instructions? Does the board show any errors? Are you aware of the fact that if you used the second code option you will NOT see anything until you actuall have one user in the chat and you ALSO view another page at the same time (a page that is NOT the chat page)? Are you on RC1?

I found out what I did.  I happened to morono-size it :)

Great Tip/Trick yet again!!!

Thanks!

I don't know what you mean by morono-size it but I am glad you got it working

Hi marcnyc,

Thank you for taking time to write up this nice instruction.  I just read through and notice it does not take care the part that Flashchat and SMF share the same user login interface, and authentication.  Or is it really in there and I did not see that?

Thanks,
Dennis

Dennis to avoid redundancy I have not posted the instructions that are already inside the package distributed by the software manufacturer. Once you have installed the chat and followed his instructions your chat's backend will be integrated. My additional integration is only on the graphical side.

There is no documentation provided with the package for integrating it with smf, though if you look at the one for IPB and do the same (obviously uncommenting the line for SMF not IPB) it will work.

ok the first part went without any probelms at all, but when I add the users online the page wont load at all it just imes out. The line of code you posted is in a different ocntext than what I have on my template this is what I have.

<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=who">', $context['num_guests'], ' ', $context['num_guests'] == 1 ? $txt['guest'] : $txt['guests'], ', ', $context['num_users_online'], ' ', $context['num_users_online'] == 1 ? $txt['user'] : $txt['users'], (empty($context['num_users_hidden']) ? '' : ' (' . $context['num_users_hidden'] . ' ' . $txt['hidden'] . ')'), '</a><br />

Thanks in advance for any help

Anything that needs to be changed in RC2?

Nope.

Well i get a parse error in my index.template :(

Worked fine for me, what was the error?

line 634:

?>

So puzzled!!

ahh fixed it, didnt like the { after echo...  maybe just my template!

Is there a way to make the chat room show the users visible name rather then their log in?

No idea, have only had a quick glance at it thus far, I imagine you just need to edit the cmssmf or whatever it's called file to select the realname rather than username.

Great stuff for sure though, and only a few quid :)

Actually there is, but for some strange reason it is in one of the subfolders. I too first thought there wasn't but then I found it. Just look in ALL subfolders and you'll find it, I promise!

I think this would be a great alteration, anyone figued out how to do it yet?  Im guessing it is done via the smf cms mod?

Ahhh Steve my programmer has done it, if you want it to display the visible name instead of the user name ie:  James Woodcock instead of GlideM then:

In file >>> FlashChat\inc\cmses\smfCMS.php

Find:
function SMFCMS() {

    $this->loginStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER as id, memberName AS login, passwd, is_activated from {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members WHERE memberName=? AND passwd=?");
    $this->getUserStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER AS id, memberName AS login, ID_GROUP as status FROM {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members WHERE ID_MEMBER=?");
    $this->getUsersStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER as id, memberName as login FROM {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members");

Replace:
function SMFCMS() {

    $this->loginStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER as id, memberName AS login, passwd, is_activated from {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members WHERE memberName=? AND passwd=?");
    $this->getUserStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER AS id, realName AS login, ID_GROUP as status FROM {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members WHERE ID_MEMBER=?");
    $this->getUsersStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER as id, realName as login FROM {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members");

Integration went smoothly. This chatroom is the bomb. Thanks for the tutorial!

Awesome to hear this, ESPECIALLY when it comes from a supposingly talented and php-experienced charter member that I am sure could have come up with it too easier than I did with my limited knowledge

It doewsnt allow äö etc in nicknames. How can i fix that?

I am sorry, I can't answer this. You'll have to take this on up with the developer.

Ok.  In firefox that iframe shows scrollbars in both ways. I cant get rid of those.

Idea, if user is chatting action=chat , that would be nice if it shows in whosonline list. Anyone want make mod for this?

Add to Modifications.finnish.php:

$txt['whoall_chat'] = 'Chatting!';

Off hand... I think that should work ;).

Thanks Owdy.

Now, if somebody still found the way to get rooms only for certain groups... rooms behind passwords or so. I have understood that this would not be possible - yet.

Its not my code, but welcome ;)

'; I use that so guests cant see that notise. How to change that so it wont sho nothing if chat is empty?

You forgot to read the addition I made, right after the code you copied, you simply have to put the echo statement inside an if statement that checks whether the variable $chatcount is different than zero.

Basically your last three lines of code:
if (!$context['user']['is_guest'])
echo ' <font size="-2" >' . $chatcount . ' '.$singularplural2.' chattäilemässä.</font><br>

';

have to be replaced with these ones:
if (!$context['user']['is_guest'] || $chatcount != 0 )
echo ' <font size="-2" >' . $chatcount . ' '.$singularplural2.' chattäilemässä.</font><br>

';

I have simply added "|| $chatcount != 0" which means "or if $chatcount is different than zero".
Hope this helps.

It wont work. Guest see that notise.


Do you know how to get rid og those scrollbars in Firefox? I mean from that ifarme?

Are you saying it doesn't work?
I am assuming your code (to hide the notice to guests) works because I didn't test it.
IF your code works then I don't see why checking for the value $chatcount wouldn't work (I had tested this and it does work).
This:
if (!$context['user']['is_guest'] )
echo ' <font size="-2" >' . $chatcount . ' '.$singularplural2.' chattäilemässä.</font><br>

';
is assumed to hide the notice to guests. Right? Does it work?
If it works and you want to hide the notice to guests AND registered-users in case the chat is empty then you have to use:
if (!$context['user']['is_guest'] || $chatcount != 0 )
echo ' <font size="-2" >' . $chatcount . ' '.$singularplural2.' chattäilemässä.</font><br>

';

I dont want guests to see that at all. Not if theres users or not. :)

Then the problem is in your code, not in mine.
Sorry but I don't have time to test your code now (i have a deadline on another project) but you'll just have to find which one is the variable/array to check if a user is a user or a guest.
One of the developers that is familiar with the internal structure of SMF should be able to tell you off hand.

Exactly ;)

Any idea how to ad page title without modifying sources?

great chat thx

will be very useful look not only number of user but name of user in chat will be possible ?

This would be cool ad on in this mod http://tufat.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=10449#10449

somebody is able to explain how do this ?

all solved thanx

If you figured it out please post the solution so everybody can benefit from it or PM me the solution and I will add it to my tutorial.

i only solved the chat as u wrote not more...

there is only one problem number of users in chat is always the same and not change
where is the problem ?

if you followed the instructions I doubt the number can always be the same... Make sure you are not viewing cached pages (clear your cache)

How to ad list of users who are in chat

In /FlashChat/info.php, find:

<html>
<title>Who's in the chat?</title>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.normal {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: normal;
}
A {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #0000FF;
}
A:hover {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #FF0000;
}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<center>
<p class=normal>There are <?=numusers()?> users in <?=$roomnumb?> rooms.</p>
<?php if($roomnumb) { ?>
<table border="1" cellpadding="1" class="normal">
<tr>
<th>ID</th>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Count</th>
<th>Users</th>
</tr>
<?php foreach($rooms as $room) { ?>
<tr>
<td><?=$room['id']?></td>
<td><?=$room['name']?></td>
<td><?=numusers($room['id'])?></td>
<td><?php

$users = usersinroom($room['id']);

foreach( $users as $user ) {
echo $user['login'] . "<br>";
}

?> </td>
</tr>
<?php } ?>
</table>
<?php } ?>

<p><a href="javascript:window.close()">Close</a></p>
<center>
</body>
</html>

Replace:

<span style="font-size:xx-small;color:#0232a1">
<?php

$users = usersinroom($room['id']);

foreach( $users as $user ) {
echo $user['login'] . ",";
}

?></span>


then ad this in index.template.php:

<td colspan="2">
';
if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
echo '
<font size="-2">Users in chat:</font> ';
if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
{

readfile("http://www.example.com/FlashChat/info.php");
}
echo ' 



</td> With this code only logged users see that list.  Code may be crappy (PHP N00b here), but it works.

work perfectly thanx

look: http://www.forumzoneru.18.com1.ru/index.php

I am having troubles with the integration :( The Chat worked fine when I tested it before integration, but when I un comment the include SMF line(common.php), it does not work at all. It will start loading (the white page with the %'s) and then a screen with the backgrtound shows up like before it shows the chat rooms and stuff. but it just sits there. . .

is that 'only' cms line what is uncommented?

Read and follow those instructions: ;)

SimpleMachines.txt

***********************************************
SIMPLE MACHINES FORUM INTEGRATION FOR FLASHCHAT
***********************************************

This file describes the steps required to integrate FlashChat into a Simple Machines (henceforth referred as SMF) installation. The normal installation procedure, as described in the FlashChat readme.txt file, does NOT apply in this case.

YOU MUST FOLLOW THESE STEPS PRECISELY!


STEP 1:
Open the "common.php" file within the "inc" folder of your FlashChat distribution, and make sure that "smfCMS.php" is the ONLY uncommented line relating to CMS integration. I recommend that you use TextPad (www.textpad.com) as your plain text editor - NOT Windows Notepad or WordPad.

Thus, the common.php file will have something similar to this:


   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/statelessCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/defaultCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/phpNukeModCMS.php');//module version
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/phpNukeCMS.php');//stand-alone version
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/postNukeModCMS.php');//module version
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/postNukeCMS.php');//stand-alone version
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/xoopsCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/phpBB2CMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/geeklogCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/vbulletinCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/xmbCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/mamboCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/e107CMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/ipbCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/moodleCMS.php');
   include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/smfCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/lunabyteCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/fusionCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/wowCMS.php');
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/azdgCMS.php');

   //---
   //include_once(INC_DIR . 'cmses/defaultUsrExtCMS.php');
   //---

Thus, "//" appears before all the CMS references EXCEPT for the smfCMS.php reference. Double slashes are how programmers "comment-out" a line, thus deactivating it.


STEP 2:
On your web server, create a new folder called "FlashChat" as a sub-folder of the SMF directory (the directory that contains SMF's index.php file). Copy all of the files in the "chat" folder from your FlashChat download to the newly created FlashChat directory.

In other words, you should now have a folder called "FlashChat" which resides in the SMF directory, and within the "FlashChat" directory you have the actual FlashChat files... for example:

.../upload/FlashChat/index.php
.../upload/FlashChat/install.php
.../upload/FlashChat/inc/
.../upload/FlashChat/sql/
.../upload/FlashChat/templates/
...etc for other files in the "chat" folder of your FlashChat distribution.

CHMOD the /FlashChat/inc/config.srv.php file to a world-writable format, like 777. This will ensure that the FlashChat installer can write configuration data to the config.srv.php file. If you are unsure of how to do this, please contact your website administrator. You may change this file's permissions to a read-only format after installation.  CHMOD 777 the appdata/appTime.txt file too.


STEP 3:
Using your web browser, open the ./FlashChat/install.php file, and accept the provided values. These values will probably look familiar to you since they should draw from your current SMF configuration. If the values do not look familiar, then go back to steps 1-3 and make sure that you have done those steps correctly.

If the values are correct, submit the form to create database tables that are required for FlashChat.


STEP 4:
Go back to the the SMF folder on your web server

Go to 'Themes/default' directory.

Open index.template.php, and find the following text:


    else
        echo '
            <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=logout;sesc=', $context['session_id'], '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/logout.gif" alt="' . $txt[108] . '" style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt[108]), '</a>';

           
Replace it with:

    else
    {
            echo '
                 <a href="', $GLOBALS['boardurl'], '/FlashChat/flashchat.php">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/chat_icon.gif" alt="FlashChat" style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : "FlashChat"),'</a>';
   
            echo '
                 <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=logout;sesc=', $context['session_id'], '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/logout.gif" alt="' . $txt[108] . '" style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt[108]), '</a>';
    }



Be very careful that you paste this text correctly, since this is a very easy place to introduce PHP syntax errors, which could make your SMF setup to stop running. Be sure to get both of the curly braces, too! { and }


STEP 5:
Go to the 'Themes/default/images' directory, and upload the provided 'chat_icon.gif' file (this is in the FlashChat distribution, and has been designed to looks like other icons in the SMF default template).

Note: Steps 4 and 5 apply ONLY to the 'default' theme. The procedure for other themes should be very similar. The chat_icon.gif file has only been created for the default template, so you may need to use an image editor like Photoshop to create the 'chat' icon for other templates.


STEP 6:
Close all instances of your web browser.

Then, restart your browser, and open the SMF main page - upon logging in, you'll see the FlashChat link in the button bar, next to the "Profile" button. Logging in as a standard SMF user will now auto-login to FlashChat, and logging into SMF as an admin or moderator will auto-login to FlashChat as a chat moderator.


If you notice any errors in these steps, or have any suggestions for improvement, please post a message on the TUFaT.com support forum, located at http://www.tufat.com

Thank you for using FlashChat!

I am going to try and install it again.

Maybe you should ask from there: http://tufat.com/phpBB2/

I tried the installer2.php since I had common.php and all the already edited like it said. in step 3 the values for the mysql were not already set. so I tried the installer2.php and it worked :) This is a gr8 tutorial.

I'm having the same problem when I edit the template file. It gets a parse error.

I have made several changes to my boardindex.template.php to add a chat stats area to the main stats section of my board. It works perfect until I try to add users online then the page wont load.

what java chat server (own deamon) is slower as a flash chat with php mysql as backend?

mediman

This isn't the right forum of course, but anyone had any luck with skinning this?  I've followed their instructions and everything loads great for me, but regular users seem to be loading a different gradient set and colors.  I've verified both files appear correct.  Just thought I'd see if anyone else had similar experiences...

It doewsnt allow äö etc in nicknames. How can i fix that?

I had the same problem when I bought it and installed it yesterday. It wont allow ø,æ and å in usernames, just shows gibberish there. But there is a solution posted on the FlashChat board - with some modifications though:

Open up FlashChat/inc/cmses/smfCMS.php and add the things in red : (mind you , these are my needs..look below for a list of more special charachters.)

  function getUser($userid) {


    $rv = NULL;
    if(($rs = $this->getUserStmt->process($userid)) && ($rec = $rs->next())) {
     $rec['roles'] = $this->getRoles($rec['status']);
     $rec['login'] = str_replace('å', 'Ã¥', $rec['login']);
     $rec['login'] = str_replace('ø', 'ø', $rec['login']);
     $rec['login'] = str_replace('æ', 'æ', $rec['login']);
     $rec['login'] = str_replace('Å', 'Ã...', $rec['login']);
     $rec['login'] = str_replace('Ø', 'Ø', $rec['login']);
     $rec['login'] = str_replace('Æ', 'Æ', $rec['login']);  
     $rv = $rec;
    }

    return $rv;
  }


Here are more charachters...



                                        'å' => 'Ã¥',
                                        'ä' => 'ä',
                                        'æ' => 'æ',
                                        'ö' => 'ö',
                                        'ø' => 'ø',
                                        'Å' => 'Ã...',
                                        'Ä' => 'Ã,,',
                                        'Æ' => 'Æ',
                                        'Ö' => 'Ö',
                                        'Ø' => 'Ø',
                                        'é' => 'é',
                                        'è' => 'è',
                                        'ü' => 'ü',
                                        'ß' => 'ß',
                                        'ù' => 'ù',
                                        'ì' => 'ì',
                                        'à' => 'Ã ',
                                        'ò' => 'ò');

Does anyone know if it is possible to turn off the chat login and allow members that are logged into the forum just go back and forth between forum and chat without having to log in everytime. I understand that is the way it is supposed to work, but every time I press the chat link and after it loads it says "Incorrect user name or password"
Thank you,
Brian

If you have followed the instructions  to integrate with  SMF, it should login automatically - even if you type in the direct adress. It reads the cookie just like SMF.

Bloc,
Here is what I mean about my code being deferant from the example.

The example says to find this:

   <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=who">', $context['num_guests'], ' ', $context['num_guests']
== 1 ? $txt['guest'] : $txt['guests'], ', ',
$context['num_users_online'], ' ', $context['num_users_online'] == 1 ? $txt['user'] : $txt['users'], (empty($context['num_users_hidden']) ? '' : ' (' . $context['num_users_hidden'] . ' ' .
$txt['hidden'] . ')'), '</a><br />

But my file has this
'<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=who">' : '', $context['num_guests'], ' ', $context['num_guests']
== 1 ? $txt['guest'] : $txt['guests'], ', ', $context['num_users_online'], ' ',
$context['num_users_online'] == 1 ? $txt['user'] : $txt['users'], $context['num_users_hidden'] > 0 ? '
(' . $context['num_users_hidden'] . ' ' . $txt['hidden'] . ')' : '', $context['show_who'] ? '</a>' : '', '<br />
<span class="smalltext">';

What do I do with this?
: '', $context['show_who'] ? '</a>' : '', '<br />
<span class="smalltext">';

Thank you for your help.
Brian

Um, I am guessing you want to put in number of users on the chat.... whats the chunk of code for that?

the last bit of code you have trouble with - the context['show_who'] - is that the FlashChat code or some other mod? 

I am not sure, I do not really have any mods exceot for one that Unknown gave me for searching members by location. I guess I can always remove it and see what if anything changes.
Brian

Dont do that. I just wondered what it was. The code for showing users in the chat can be added without replacing that whole section. :)

Bloc, I still need help. The problem with my autologin was apparently my browser or something else with my laptop. My desktop worked just fine. However I can not get the code above to work. I have tried adding several differant ways and I always get a parse error. Could you look at it anf give me some ideas as to what to change.
Thank you,
Brian

Sure. But I need to see your files first. I am not sure what you have done or not done.

After doing all the work...

I must say: really really great!  8)
Thanx a lot for this nice implementation.


My fresh experience on some problems:
I use it with the classic-theme and SMF beta 5.

The chat-logo in index.template.php
the incorrect tutorial on trufat.com http://www.easterpig.com/demo/flashchat/integration/smf.html cost me the most time.   i  had to remove a "{" and change the arrangement, because otherwise i had problems with the seperators, so my end of the skript looks like this:

// Otherwise, they might want to [logout]...
else
     echo '<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=logout;sesc=', $context['session_id'],
    '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
    . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/logout.gif" alt="' . $txt[108]
    . '" style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt[108]),'</a>', $context['menu_separator'];
   
    echo '<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=chat">',
     ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
    . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/chat_icon.gif" alt="' . $txt[108]
    . '" style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt[108]),'</a>';

   
}
?>

and added a , $context['menu_separator'] after <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=register">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/register.gif" alt="' . $txt[97] . '" border="0" />' : $txt[97]), '</a>' .

And now i have the same problems like bbayliss with the SUB-TUTORIAL #1

I've not enough experience with PHP, so i did not make it, to get the , ' . $chatcount . ' User'.$singularplural2.' in Chat in the right place between it.

Would be great if u can help



Anyway the Chat.template is a brilliant idea!

greets frm germany
garfield

How can i ad title tag in that chat/template?

just followed the tutorial of marcnyc to the letter and it works perfectly - just a doubt though - when I log out of the chat window  up pops a login dialog box on top of the main chat window. If i try to close this popup nothing happens.
To shut both this popup and close the main chat window (which shows as a big blank grey rectangle ) I have to hit any  nav button - for example Home .

Is this normal or have I missed something?

Thanks

Jason,

You can't give the users an option to have anything else but the default.

It took me a while, but I've got it down on my site.  The only color I can't figure out is where the user names are listed.  The box itself is one color, but the background for every line that has a username is changed to an electric blue.

Check it out if you want...you'll need a forum account though...and excue the mess on the homepage...renovations still ;)

Owdy this stumped me at first, I have been trying to do it since I added the page. I just made a link that made a new window with javascript to the flashchat file isntead, but after I found out how to add the title. (I kept the popup instead though)
Here is how I did it:
Open Sources/Chat.php
Find:function Chat() {
Add After:(on a new line)global $context;
$context['page_title'] = 'Chat';

5. create a file called Chat.template.php with your text-only editor such as NotePad (PC) or BBEdit (Mac) and add this code inside it:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<?php
// Version: 1.0 RC1; Chat

function template_main()
{
global $context, $settings, $options, $txt, $scripturl;

echo '
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!--
function checkAll(onOff)
{
for (var i = 0; i < document.searchform.elements.length; i++)
{
if (document.searchform.elements[i].name.substr(0, 3) == "brd")
document.searchform.elements[i].checked = onOff;
}
}
// --></script>
<form action="', $scripturl, '?action=search2" method="post" name="searchform" id="searchform">
<table width="80%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" align="center">
<tr>
<td>', theme_linktree(), '</td>
</tr>
</table>

<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" align="center" class="tborder">
<tr class="titlebg">
<td>Chat</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="windowbg">';

// load the chat
echo '<iframe width="100%" height="450" src="http://www.yourserver.com/smf/FlashChat/flashchat.php"></iframe>';

echo '
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>';
}

?>
6. save this file inside /smf/Themes/default/

There is lots of unnessessery (like search form and JS) stuff. This is enough:

<?php
// Chat template
function template_main()
{
global $context, $settings, $options, $txt, $scripturl;

echo '

<table width="80%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" >
<tr>
<td>', theme_linktree(), '</td>
</tr>
</table>

<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" align="center" class="tborder">
<tr class="titlebg">
<td>Chat</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="windowbg">';

// load the chat
echo '<iframe width="100%" height="450" src="http://www.yourserver.com/smf/FlashChat/flashchat.php"></iframe>';

echo '
</td>
</tr>
</table>
';
}

?>

I want to put up who is in the chat with the names linking to the smf profile on my homepage (not smf page).  Can someone help me out?  I am currently just including the info.php file.  Thanks.

ThaiAnime,

You can find it at http://www.tufat.com/

Does anyone know how I could put the chat link in the menu bar of MKportal?

This is what I have in index_template.php (as per step 8 of marcnyc's tutorial):
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=chat">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/chat_icon.gif" alt="FlashChat" border="0" />' : "FlashChat"),'</a>';

And this is what MKportal uses to link to it's own Chat module:
$row_link .= $Skin->row_link("$this->images/atb_chat.gif", "href='$this->siteurl/index.php?ind=chat' target='_new'", $this->lang['chat']);

btw the integration and Users in Chat worked beautifully :)

href='$this->siteurl/index.php?ind=chat' target='_new'

Change that to be whatever the URL to your forum is + ?action=chat... ie.

href='http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?action=chat' target='_new'

-[Unknown]

That worked... nearly. The chat was inside the portal, but the whole thing opened in a new window. I tried changing target='_new' to target='_parent' and it worked!
Thanks very much for your help [Unknown].

btw SMF is absolutely wonderful :)

I just found this thread after painstakingly trying and failing to use the Integrated Chat Mod.  I'm sure it's a good Mod, I had lots of problems with it for some reason.

Anyway, I just wanted to say Wow!  and Thank you! to marcnyc for the heads up on FlashChat and writing out how to embed it into your SMF forum.  I got it all up and running on my forum in less that a half hour.

I haven't added the "users chatting" stat yet but everything else worked like a charm!

Now I just hope this program doesn't eat bandwidth and use up lots of resources!  :P

It seems to be light on bandwidth, but very heavy on resources.

How can i add this to ssi?

how can i let guest join the chat???

FlasChat has own support forum. Maybe you should ask there?
http://tufat.com/phpBB2/index.php

Nice one people, all the help here installed it no problem....

Some people have commented about getting logged out if they leave it open for a while (30 minutes or so)

I've checked the config and it seems to be set to 24hrs  (24 x 60 x 60) ???

oh well minor worry

This what i am trying to have in my integrated chat, I hope the next chat version will allow guest to chat.

ZitatIt seems to be light on bandwidth, but very heavy on resources.

How heavy is "VERY HEAVY"??

I have this chat mod, but haven't installed it on my live server because my host doesn't allow chat's[ except the ones you can install via cpanel/fantastico] for this reason.

nice going!

just a question though.... is there a possibility to make it so that if a user is in chat (but not active on the boards for 15 min...etc) that they still appear online on the message boards who's online area?

the reason is that if a user is idle on the board, they are dropped from the who's online list, but they are still active in chat.

Also, would it be possible that when you click the who's online (and it displays what the user is doing) that it could display "User is chatting" or something like that?

thanks,
†B†V†

This is awsome...
I used to use Goosemoose's chat mod before converting to SMF. But I think I'll try this out. Maybe by using this I can figure out to intergrate my flash movie episodes into flash.
:P

Can you make a normal php-code in Chat.template.php in stead of

iframe width="100%" height="450" src="http://www.yourserver.com/smf/FlashChat/flashchat.php"></iframe>

I THINK this would go here. I'm not sure, though.

I read the guide for intergrating flash chat into your site entirely. the first bit worked like a charm. the second bit didn't.  the second bit, which allows you to display how many users are in your chat, causes a premature end of script when i enter it into the file.  I've tried cheating with the flashchat info file.  even added it into the index template.  (stupid variable was already declared)

so anyway, i'm annoyed. I can still do a php include statement from the info.php file, but i can't put it in the forum where i want it, only before or after the <?php  ?> of the script.  Which WORKS, i'll give it that. but I want it to be in a better place.  And include refuses to work while inside the code of the board index.

So... perhaps someone could enlighten me. 

Can you give a few lines around how you're trying to enter the include?  I'll give you a few examples:

Wrong:
<some html>
include('hello.php');
</more html>

Also wrong:
<some html>
<?php include('hello.php'); ?>
</more html>

Correct:
<some html>';
include('hello.php');
echo '</more html>

If i use include in chat.template.php, i get:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare reloadsettings() (previously declared in /www/asiakkaat/public_html/foorumi/Sources/Load.php:96) in /www/asiakkaat/public_html/foorumi/Sources/Load.php on line 94

yeah... i know. that's part of the problem.  the include works fine, so long as it's before the actual code for the site.  But as part of it, it won't work. 

I wouldn't mind using the way the first post of this topic describes, but it gives me errors.

When i changed a cookiename in SMF, the auto-login don't work anymore, but when i changed previous name, it again works.

Any idea?

I've installed FlashChat and all works fantastic. I also added a button on top of the forum, just like the read me file told me to. However...the logout and chat button now both are showing up a bit off. They both are placed a little higher then the rest of the icons, and they are attached to each other, without a small space.

It's nothing much, but since I don't really like playing around with codes cause i'm scared I'll ruin the entire thing, I was wondering if anyone has a suggestion for me.

This is the code I had to add:

else {
     echo '<a href="', $GLOBALS['boardurl'], '/FlashChat/flashchat.php">',
     ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
     . '/chat_icon.gif" alt="FlashChat" style="margin: 2px 0;"
     border="0" />' : "FlashChat"),'</a>';

    echo '<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=logout;sesc=', $context['session_id'],
    '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
    . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/logout.gif" alt="' . $txt[108]
    . '" style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt[108]),'</a>';
}

Anything in there that needs a little change so that both buttons show up just fine again?

check the buttons margin size and make sure all buttons use the same margin size . style="margin: 2px 0;"

just a question, hows come there is always 1 user in the stats for the chat (in the stats at the bottom of the forum) UNLESS I login and log back out?

†B†V†

anytime i replace the code like described in the tutorial

else {
     echo '<a href="', $GLOBALS['boardurl'], '/FlashChat/flashchat.php">',
     ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
     . '/chat_icon.gif" alt="FlashChat" style="margin: 2px 0;"
     border="0" />' : "FlashChat"),'</a>';

    echo '<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=logout;sesc=', $context['session_id'],
    '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
    . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/logout.gif" alt="' . $txt[108]

}

can anyone help me

i tried everything

i make it today...
wonderful...
i translated to italian the phrases for users... ;)

very nice...

You are very welcome! ;-)

cool stuff here!  Just wanted to say thanks again.. but I did have a question.

How can we list WHO is in the chat in addition to the "how many users"
It would be cool to have a user list of who is in there.... at the bottom where there is the # of people in the chat.

Thanks,
BV

 <?php @include('http://www.whatever.net/forum/FlashChat/info.php'); ?>

I modified the info.php file to list the names of who is in chat along the top of my forum page.

Go into your flashchat folder and edit info.php
find the code
//result will be an array of arrays like ('id' => <room id>, 'updated' = <timestamp>, 'created' => <timestamp>, 'name' => <room name>, 'ispublic' => <public flag>, 'ispermanent' => <autoclose flag>)
return $list;
}


$rooms = roomlist();
$roomnumb = sizeof($rooms);
?>

Delete everything after it and replace with

<html>
<title>Who's in the chat?</title>

<body>


<?php if($roomnumb) { ?>

<?php foreach($rooms as $room) { ?>

<?php

$users = usersinroom($room['id']);

foreach( $users as $user ) {
echo $user['login']. ", ";
}
?>

<? } ?>
<? } ?>
</body>
</html>


Now edit your index.template.php file and after


// The main content should go here.  A table is used because IE 6 just can't handle a div.

echo '

<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr>

<td id="bodyarea" style="padding: 1ex 20px 2ex 20px;">';



add the line

include('http://www.rcmodelflyers.co.uk/4um/FlashChat/info.php');   

Gerry

Nice! How about popup window with:

<html>
<title>Who's in the chat?</title>

<body>


<?php if($roomnumb) { ?>

<?php foreach($rooms as $room) { ?>
<p class=normal>There are <?=numusers()?> users in  chat:
<?php

$users = usersinroom($room['id']);

foreach( $users as $user ) {
echo $user['login']. ", ";
}
?></p>
<p align="center"><a href="javascript:window.close()">Close window</a></p>
<? } ?>
<? } ?>
</body>

anytime i replace the code like described in the tutorial

else {
     echo '<a href="', $GLOBALS['boardurl'], '/FlashChat/flashchat.php">',
     ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
     . '/chat_icon.gif" alt="FlashChat" style="margin: 2px 0;"
     border="0" />' : "FlashChat"),'</a>';

    echo '<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=logout;sesc=', $context['session_id'],
    '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
    . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/logout.gif" alt="' . $txt[108]
    . '" style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt[108]),'</a>';
}

in my /themes/curve/index.template


nothing happens!

when i edit my

/themes/default/index.
#

i get

Template Parse Error!
It seems something has gone sour on the forum with the template system. This problem should only be temporary, so please come back later and try again. If you continue to see this message, please contact the administrator.

You can also try refreshing this page.


my actual theme is curve and i dont wont to change it


can anyone help me

i tried everything

I get the exact same error...

-Xarcell

I got it to work, instead of adding it all, I just added


     echo '<a href="', $GLOBALS['boardurl'], '/FlashChat/flashchat.php">',
     ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
     . '/chat_icon.gif" alt="FlashChat" style="margin: 2px 0;"
     border="0" />' : "FlashChat"),'</a>';

right under "else"

-Xarcell

Ok, I got the chat working, but then I took the next step and tried to get it "within" the forums using the info from the tutorial. For some reason teh page won't load. I checked my chat.template to make sure the url us correct. It is because I can direct link to it. the action=chat seem to be working just fine, I just get a 404 error within the iframe.

What else could it be?

-Xarcell

It works and works well. I just redid the chat.template file and bling, it appeared.

I also tried something else. I posted that iframe in the "static page mod".

Looks a tad cleaner....

-Xarcell

Pheasant Plucker and Owdy (or anybody who can do PHP better than I :) ):

I used PP's "Who's Online" tip a few posts up, and it's working great...but is there a way to preface the list of names with "Who's Chatting:"?? All I'm getting now is a list of names without any sort of info about what it means...I'm sure it's an easy fix but I'm not handy enough with coding to figure it out, so any help would be much appreciated...

You can include Flash chats info.php in SMF's Boardindex.template.php

Ahhh, I figured out how to do what I wanted. Very easy indeed. Thanks!

How could I integrate FlashChat ONTO the index of my forum? Like, I want the FlashChat on top, then the forum boards below. Any ideas?

Maybe some weird frames bubblegum thingy?

there's a problem with this...

(someone on the flashchat forums asked, essentially the same thing. They wanted to use the flashchat as an enhanced shoutbox)

SMF, as standard, reloads the whole page each time a new page is called.   I have not yet seen it run in an iframe environent.
If you just icnlude the flashchat window in a frame above the SMF forum, then each time someone goes to a page in SMF, they will be logged out and logged back in to flashchat.

Flashchat is a CHAT program... not a shoutbox.
if you want a shotubox, install the SMF shoutbox mod...   there are even ways to take the entries from the shoutbox and import then into flashchat...

Serious, frames. Top frame flash chat, bottom frame smf. But remember, frames are devils work! :P

So no? ;_;

No, yes.

  I need a little help.  I installed both of the user displays, the one that shows the number of users and the one that shows the users name.  The only problem I have is that on some of my pages it shows the users on the same line as the link tree.  Here is the code I have
echo '
Currently there ' . $singularplural1 . ' <font color="#FF0000">' . $chatcount . ' User'.$singularplural2.' in the Chat&nbsp;&nbsp;</font>';
             include ('http://www.mopartruckworld.com/forum/chat/info.php');

       }

  Can I put a <br> in there some where?  I tried many, many times but since I don't know php I didn't know where to put it.   I don't even know if I can use that.  I just need a way to show this info on its own line on my forum.  Thanks!!

Jeff

well, you could try putting a <br /> at the start of the echo statement...

Hi marcnyc,

works just greatly smooth. I really like the message about the users currently in chat in the header. Is it possible to add a line for "users currently logged into the board" ?

Thanks a lot for the great tutorial again,
Davy-D

thanks heaps for that marcnyc, came in very handy you're a legend.

Davy-D,

The alreeady exists in the info center at the bottom of the main screen....   if you want to put it elsewhere on your screen, then open BoardIndex.template.php and copy the code for it inti index.template.php, right near where you added your chatting code.

Kindred,

thanks for that hint. I managed to edit the line as I wanted. The only problem is that I also want to make "not-logged-in" people to see how many people are signed in, chatting, and reviewing the index site.
Guest access is disabled though. The original hack from marcnyc showed the number also on the login site, my personal hack doesnt show any other number. What is the reason ?

UPDATE:
Okay, in the index page, I have now "Chatters online" and "Users in Forum" (by querying the DB table smf_log_online for the amount). But I want to list the guests which are not logged in due to restricted rights as well. How can I differentiate them ? Asked differently: why in the index page, the array $context is empty ?

UPDATE2:
Okay okay, I am stupid - but sometimes learning quickly ;). I managed to differentiate now the 2 items by matching the SQL query one time for "not-user-id-0" and one time "user-id-0". Thanks a lot for all help, thanks for this nice community forum and last but not least for SMF and mySQL.

cu,
Davy

I got it working :)

Here is my code maybe this will help others that are using the classic template

     $chatrequest = db_query("

echo '

if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
{

readfile("http://www.mysite.com/yabbse/Flashchat/info.php");
}
}

Ok this is what I used to get mine working without the parse error. Now the page displays, but I got a new error. Any help?

2: readfile(): URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration
File: /home/.abigaildryer/xarcell/veoclan.com/forum/Themes/classic/BoardIndex.template.php (eval?)
Line: 366

Flash Chat is one of the greatest chat rooms you can get  :D  They have a very easy one step intergration for SMF on their site. 

Open index.template.php, and find the following text:

else
     echo '<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=logout;sesc=', $context['session_id'],
     '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
     . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/logout.gif" alt="' . $txt[108]
     . '" style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt[108]),    '</a>';

Replace it with:

else {
     echo '<a href="', $GLOBALS['boardurl'], '/chat/flashchat.php">',
     ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
     . '/chat_icon.gif" alt="FlashChat" style="margin: 2px 0;"
     border="0" />' : "FlashChat"),'</a>';

    echo '<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=logout;sesc=', $context['session_id'],
    '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url']
    . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/logout.gif" alt="' . $txt[108]
    . '" style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt[108]),'</a>';
}

Then, save your changes and upload the file to your server. If you use other templates besides the default template, you may have to repeat this step for each template that you use.

FlashChat comes with a small GIF file called "chat_icon.gif". Upload this file from the FlashChat root folder to the default template's "images" folder, as shown below. If you get a broken image icon after uploading this, please check the "src=..." path in the template code (above) to ensure that you have the correct path set.
Now, on the Simple Machines homepage, the new FlashChat icon will appear. Clicking on this link will open FlashChat in a new window (because of target="_blank" in the HTML that was added).

This should link to the "flashchat.php" file of FlashChat. When FlashChat loads, you should be automatically logged into the chatroom using your Simple Machines username. If you are an administrator of Simple Machines, then you will be logged into FlashChat as a moderator, which means that you can ban and boot other users.


I took me about 10 mins to intergrate it!  ;D  Versions I did it on: SMF 1.0.5 and FlashChat 4.1.2


The link is: http://www.tufat.com/docs/flashchat/smf.html and http://www.tufat.com/docs/flashchat/integration.html

is it possible to "limit" the possibility of chat just for members who post more the 50 messages in the forum ?
Thank you.

I'm worried about server loads, not really bandwidth.  Either way, I've emailed the author -- we'll see what he says.  :)

-Jason

Me too. Is it possible to make a restriction. For exemple with catégories poster, or allow the chat for members who already post more than 100 reply ...

I've also installed this great chat engine.

Is it possbile to show the user's alias in FlashChat. Right now it show the user's login ID.
Anyone?

Here is a chat icon I made to use with my SMFone template. Feel free to use it if you want.

Does this program work in 1.1 Beta 4? Anything special I need to do before I install this in beta 4?

Cheers

RJ

yes, this works with 1.1 b4...

and Jinx...  I have no idea why your system would do this... mine uses the display name from SMF.

Ok got it to work just fine. If only I could get a CHAT button for the YABB SE Theme...

Cheers

RJ

It doewsnt allow äö etc in nicknames. How can i fix that?

That's ok, but is there the same solution for info.php

Thanks very much for taking the time to post this tutorial, marcnyc. I installed FlashChat on my site and it works well!

I had just two small problems - one fixed, one not. I didn't like the way the "who's in the chat" box at the bottom of the page was formatted. Besides being different from the SMF forum list, displaying the names vertically is kind of a dumb use of space. So I edited info_embedded.php, and now it looks just like the SMF forum list - much better! I'll append my code below in case anyone is interested. I made changes throughout the file, but the file isn't that long.

The other problem I had is that FlashChat insists on defaulting to white text - regardless of what color my theme says it should be. You have to change the color to something else and then exit for it to stop being white. Since I chose a light background for my theme (to match the rest of my site), white doesn't show up too well. The problem is in both the userlist and the chat text (which use the same color). Since I've never programmed Flash, it would take me a long time to find this bug so I haven't even tried to look. Does anyone know what the problem is? I have Flash (just bought an upgrade to Macromedia Studio 8 ).

One other thing... Does anyone have any idea what the "skins" do? When I change them, I see no difference. The "Select color scheme" works and my theme controls that (except for the white text problem), but I don't see what the skins do. It's not documented, and I can't tell looking at the code, either.

Here's my modified info_embedded.php:

<?php

header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");

the white-text issue should be solved in 4.3.3... if not, the solution (described over on the flashchat forum) is to change all of the default text colour values in the setup files for your default theme to something other than #000000. Setting them to #000001 works just peachy.

Skins modify the look of the screen... at least they do on my site...

You know, I tried that when I was playing around with it, trying to get it to work, and at first I thought that fixed it. At least it was fixed when I was "chatting" with myself from two different computers. But twice now when chatting with someone else they came up "white". I'll go back to #000001 - can't hurt. And I'll take a look in the FlashChat forum. Do you know when 4.3.3 is supposed to be released?

Skins modify the look of the screen... at least they do on my site...

Really? What part of the screen changes, and in what way? Do you have before and after screenshots you can post?

I've wondered if it's a Mac thing. Are you using a Mac?

I changed every instance of 0x000000 in my theme to 0x000001, and I also watched more closely to see what happened when I changed the skins. The style and color of the controls change (buttons, tabs). I'm so relieved I can finally see it doing something!

I've also installed this great chat engine.

Is it possbile to show the user's alias in FlashChat. Right now it show the user's login ID.
Anyone?

It's possible but not without screwing up the bots.

FlashChat renders just fine in Safari and Camino.

The fix for the name bug was posted earlier in this thread here (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=27137.msg150666#msg150666). It's a small error in the smfCMF files (smfCMF.php and smfCMF2.php).

I discovered that 4.3.3 has already been released. I downloaded it and I'm installing it now.

Ahhh Steve my programmer has done it, if you want it to display the visible name instead of the user name ie:  James Woodcock instead of GlideM then:

In file >>> FlashChat\inc\cmses\smfCMS.php

Find:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

function SMFCMS() {

    $this->loginStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER as id, memberName AS login, passwd, is_activated from {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members WHERE memberName=? AND passwd=?");
    $this->getUserStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER AS id, memberName AS login, ID_GROUP as status FROM {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members WHERE ID_MEMBER=?");
    $this->getUsersStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER as id, memberName as login FROM {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members");

Replace:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

function SMFCMS() {

    $this->loginStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER as id, memberName AS login, passwd, is_activated from {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members WHERE memberName=? AND passwd=?");
    $this->getUserStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER AS id, realName AS login, ID_GROUP as status FROM {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members WHERE ID_MEMBER=?");
    $this->getUsersStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER as id, realName as login FROM {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members");


Works like a charm.

I had an idea.  It'd be cool if a member could invite another member into chat.  Basically they'd hit a "chat now" button on the person's profile or next to their username on the board and if that member was online, it'd popup a window saying "john doe would like to chat, do you accept?" and if they accept it would take them to the chat.  I'm guessing a variable could be set that when the member refreshes a page it would check to see if it was set to yes or no and if yet, bring up the window asking to chat.  Sorry if I'm not making sense, kind of hard to explain.  You guys follow me?  I guess it'd be a way to use chat as a live IM system.

well, that is something beyond the scope of SMF... and actually, beyond the scope of FlashChat.

You would have to modify the Flash file in FlashChat, as well as some of the php functions and templates...

You'd also have to install a javascript-alert function in SMF and add a continual and regular refresh...  Which would be annoying for users who are trying to read things in the forum and would also increase bandwidth usage 10-fold.

Honestly, if you want IM, use an IM.

I disagree, you would not have to have a refresh.  SMF already uses this type of thing to alert members of new messages (if they chose to get alerts in their profile settings).  Of course I'd have to modify some files but I don't see it being as hard as you make it out to be. 

the new messages note only pops up when you refresh or go to a new page....

So, if I am sitting online reading a message for 20 minutes, I do not get a notice of my new PM until I go to another page within the site or click refresh...

Yeah, that would be true.  A drawback I guess.

Hi. Thanks. Tutorial cool.

I have a problem.
I am trying to integrate smf user hidden with  flashchat spy_user. It does not work.
Could you say me like i do it?

Sorry my bad English. THANKS!  ;)

My code is:

$this->loginStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER as id, memberName AS login, passwd, is_activated from {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members WHERE memberName=? AND passwd=?");
    $this->getUserStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER AS id, realName AS login, ID_GROUP as status, showOnline as espia FROM {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members WHERE ID_MEMBER=?");
    $this->getUsersStmt = new Statement("SELECT ID_MEMBER as id, realName as login FROM {$GLOBALS['db_prefix']}members");

    $this->userid = NULL;

    if (isset($_COOKIE[$GLOBALS['cookiename']])) {
      $cookieData = unserialize((get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($_COOKIE[$GLOBALS['cookiename']]) : $_COOKIE[$GLOBALS['cookiename']])) ;
      $this->userid = $cookieData[0];
     }

  }


  function isLoggedIn() {
    return $this->userid;
  }

  function getRoles($status) {
    $rv = NULL;
    if ($status == 1 || $status == 9 || $status == 11) {
             if ($espia == 1)
                     $rv = ROLE_SPY;
             else
                     $rv = ROLE_ADMIN; }                               
    else
      $rv = ROLE_USER;

    return $rv;
  }

  function getUserProfile($userid) {

if ($espia == 1) $rv = NULL;

    elseif ($user = $this->getUser($userid)) {
      $rv  = $GLOBALS['boardurl'] . "/index.php?action=profile;u=".$userid;
    }

    return $rv;
  }


  function getUser($userid) {


    $rv = NULL;
    if(($rs = $this->getUserStmt->process($userid)) && ($rec = $rs->next())) {
      $rec['roles'] = $this->getRoles($rec['status']);
      $rv = $rec;
    }

    return $rv;
  }

once you add a CMS in Flashchat, you lose the ability to log in as a guest or spy...

But I believe to ROLE_SPY is active.
I enter hidde but I cannot to write in chat. Or hidde or other rule, but both I cannot ability with "showOnline".
I will try it.

Thanks kindred!

The SPY login can never type any messages in chat. The purpose is that it's a spy... watching but not responding

I posted over at Flashchat but will do it here to.

ZitatI have SMF 1.1RC1 and FlashChat 4.4.2

Everything works fine, very nice! But I want it to open the chat in a new window but without all the address and toolbars at the top. I also want the chat to be smaller when it pops up. I was thinking something like a box about 6 inches wide x 6 inches high.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Where do I need to put the suggested corrections

Thanks

A small tip if you plan on installing the chat program.

Install it into the root of your forum and when running the install script chose to integrate it into an existing cms. There is an option for smf 1.1 choose that one and continue. Then edit the default index.template.php with the integration tutorial here.http://www.tufat.com/docs/flashchat/smf.html (http://www.tufat.com/docs/flashchat/smf.html)

Once that is done follow the tutorial give in the first post of this thread. Although I am getting a parse error in the Boardindex.template.php file that has yet to be rectified.

Hope that helps

Hey Houston,
Did you do the "SUB-TUTORIAL #2: add "Users in Chat" sentence in ALL pages" part?

I had no trouble (once I found exactly where to put it) with the board index, but the second part puts the notice all the way up at the top and breaks my XHTML compatibility. It really screws with IE. It's supposed to go down by the search & home etc. buttons.

http://www.theopenrange.net/forum/index.php

OK I had closer look at the boardindex.template.php file in 1.1 rc1.

The tutorial given in the first post of this thread says to look for this code

Zitat<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=who">', $context['num_guests'], ' ', $context['num_guests'] == 1 ? $txt['guest'] : $txt['guests'], ', ', $context['num_users_online'], ' ', $context['num_users_online'] == 1 ? $txt['user'] : $txt['users'], (empty($context['num_users_hidden']) ? '' : ' (' . $context['num_users_hidden'] . ' ' . $txt['hidden'] . ')'), '</a><br />

This is what is in the 1.1 rc1 file that is not quite the same.

Zitat<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=who">';

   echo (empty($context['spiders']) ? '' : $context['num_spiders'] . ' ' . ($context['num_spiders'] == 1 ? $txt['ob_googlebot_spider'] : $txt['ob_googlebot_spiders']) . ', '), $context['num_guests'], ' ', $context['num_guests'] == 1 ? $txt['guest'] : $txt['guests'], ', ' . $context['num_users_online'], ' ', $context['num_users_online'] == 1 ? $txt['user'] : $txt['users'];

   // Handle hidden users and buddies.
   if (!empty($context['num_users_hidden']) || ($context['show_buddies'] && !empty($context['show_buddies'])))
   {
      echo ' (';

      // Show the number of buddies online?
      if ($context['show_buddies'])
         echo $context['num_buddies'], ' ', $context['num_buddies'] == 1 ? $txt['buddy'] : $txt['buddies'];

      // How about hidden users?
      if (!empty($context['num_users_hidden']))
         echo $context['show_buddies'] ? ', ' : '', $context['num_users_hidden'] . ' ' . $txt['hidden'];

      echo ')';

It seems to be calling the same information but in a different way.  So where do I input this code.

Zitat<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=who">', $context['num_guests'], ' ', $context['num_guests'] == 1 ? $txt['guest'] : $txt['guests'], ', ', $context['num_users_online'], ' ', $context['num_users_online'] == 1 ? $txt['user'] : $txt['users'], (empty($context['num_users_hidden']) ? '' : ' (' . $context['num_users_hidden'] . ' ' . $txt['hidden'] . ')'), ', ' . $chatcount . ' User'.$singularplural2.' in Chat</a><br />

as suggested in the tutorial.

Thanks

One other ? The chat image lays right beside the logout image with no spacing in between. How would I change that so there is a few pixels between the two images.

Thanks

 :D :) :-\ :o :( :'( EEEEKKKKK!!

reading that tutorial is gona make me faint!

Its JUST what I need but I am PHP illiterate  :'(

Isnt there any files I can just download and add to my server to make this work? I already purchased Flash Chat along with the cool integrated MP3 Player

HELP

FlashChat website gives exact info to integrate it into SMF.

Is tufat.com down? I cannot access it!

I would be very Greatful if you could help me as i dont really want to start Deleting a Folder just to upload it to the SMF or Vice versa

No, what I posted is for 1.1 rc1.
I will have a new tutorial for rc2 shortly.

I can't figure out how to show "users in chat" with SMF 1.0.5. Any ideas?

I want this integration but I'll wait for your 1.1 RC2 tutorial. ;) wink*

Here is mine if it's of any help:

Steps 1-7 are the same as of the 1st post.

Step 8: In you language files in index.yourlanguage.php at the end (before php closing bracket "?>") add the following line:

$txt['chat_but'] = 'Chat In Your language';

Step 9: Find this code:
// If the user is a guest, also show [register] button.
if ($context['user']['is_guest'])
echo ($current_action == 'register' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '' , '
<td valign="top" class="maintab_' , $current_action == 'register' ? 'active_back' : 'back' , '">
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=register">' , $txt[97] , '</a>
</td>' , $current_action == 'register' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '';

After it add this one:
// chat code by UzForum.Com
if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
echo ($current_action=='home' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '' , '
<td valign="top" class="maintab_' , $current_action == 'home' ? 'active_back' : 'back' , '">
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=chat">' , $txt['chat_but'] , '</a>
</td>' , $current_action == 'home' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '';

It adds a link in the top menu. However there is a glitch - on the home page both Home & Chat are highlighted as active (other pages are normal), i didn't have a time to see what's wrong. It works though...

You are close:
You still have action=='home' in your code. Change it to 'chat'
// Show the [chat] button.
if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
echo ($current_action=='chat' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '' , '
<td valign="top" class="maintab_' , $current_action == 'chat' ? 'active_back' : 'back' , '">
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=chat">' , $txt['chat_1'] , '</a>
</td>' , $current_action == 'chat' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '';

And don't forget to add chat to the action menu
Find in index.template.php
if (in_array($context['current_action'], array('search', 'admin', 'calendar', 'profile', 'mlist', 'register', 'login', 'help', 'pm')))

As you can see it has a list of the actions in the menu.  What we are going to do is add , 'chat' after 'pm'.  Each action in the array is separated by a comma and enclosed in single quotes (').

It should look like this.
if (in_array($context['current_action'], array('search', 'admin', 'calendar', 'profile', 'mlist', 'register', 'login', 'help', 'pm', 'chat')))

My respect :), I am not a coder though. I thought that "action" thing tells on "Whos online" who's doing what & where, so i wasn't sure. Now we need to integrate that thingy in the bottom showing users in the chat. ;).

How to ad list of users who are in chat

In /FlashChat/info.php, find:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<html>
<title>Who's in the chat?</title>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.normal {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: normal;
}
A {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #0000FF;
}
A:hover {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #FF0000;
}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<center>
<p class=normal>There are <?=numusers()?> users in <?=$roomnumb?> rooms.</p>
<?php if($roomnumb) { ?>
<table border="1" cellpadding="1" class="normal">
<tr>
<th>ID</th>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Count</th>
<th>Users</th>
</tr>
<?php foreach($rooms as $room) { ?>
<tr>
<td><?=$room['id']?></td>
<td><?=$room['name']?></td>
<td><?=numusers($room['id'])?></td>
<td><?php

$users = usersinroom($room['id']);

foreach( $users as $user ) {
echo $user['login'] . "<br>";
}

?> </td>
</tr>
<?php } ?>
</table>
<?php } ?>

<p><a href="javascript:window.close()">Close</a></p>
<center>
</body>
</html>

Replace:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<span style="font-size:xx-small;color:#0232a1">
<?php

$users = usersinroom($room['id']);

foreach( $users as $user ) {
echo $user['login'] . ",";
}

?></span>


then ad this in index.template.php:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

<td colspan="2">
';
if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
echo '
<font size="-2">Users in chat:</font> ';
if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
{

readfile("http://www.example.com/FlashChat/info.php");
}
echo ' 



</td> With this code only logged users see that list.  Code may be crappy (PHP N00b here), but it works.

I know this is a dumb, simple question, but I can't figure it out.  Is there a way to have a title in front of the displayed names, such as "Who's in Chat"?

Thanks...Jim

The pic is what the display shows now:
