FlashChat Integration

[s--k]

First: great Chat (bought it yesterday) 

My 1st problem:
Why do user have to login and are not automatically in the chat?


My 2nd problem:
If I try to install the FlashChat Integration, I see the following error:

What probably means in english: "no actions definied"

My 3rd problem:
I can see the mod- but not use it- can only list the files or delete them:(


My solved Problem:
I was not able to upload the FlashChat from the Link I´ve got after the payment
directly from SMF and had to upload it from my harddisc. That did NOT work, because
of the scripttime I have on the server. So I installed it manually after an upload via
FTP- now it works.. but:
- I can NOT delete Chatrooms

If an user clicks on Login here,

the Chat works- the Username and Mods become Mods and Admin becames automatically administrator.
Great- but: whatfor the "you can purchase..." text?
I already did purchase the script- otherwise I would not be able to use that 

Can anyone help? What did I do wrong?
(sorry for my bad english- it´s a long time ago I used it..)

Thank you for help!

Is this compatible with smf 1.1.3??

Hi,

Yes, I have this working with 1.1.3 without any problems.

[aussieholden]

I have SMF 1.1.3 and installed the mod but can not set any setting as I get the 404 error and during the install it could not find the following files :-

12. Execute Modification ./chat/inc/flashChatTag.php File not found
13. Execute Modification ./chat/inc/cmses/smfCMS2.php File not found

I also get the message :-

FlashChat does not appear to be installed!

[Col]

Have you purchased FlashChat (just $5) and installed it before you installed this mod? This mod just provides for a fuller integration with SMF.

[aussieholden]

Yes flash chat has been installed first before the mod.
Should flash chat be sitting in a certin place on my host ?

[justonemike]

I didn't find anything ....  is there a way to make it were only certain member groups can enter a specific room in flash chat.

For example if there is a room called "Charter Members" then only members with the group status of Charter Members would be able to get into that room in chat?

[aussieholden]

Ok I found out the chat file needed to be in the forum file the mod installed but when I went to change the chat room option's in the setting I ended up loosing acces the forum as I get a big white screen telling me this :-

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, [email protected] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.


Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

HELP I tried to remove what I could to get it back up but no luck. 

[aussieholden]

I have now got the forum back up and working but I am now left with parts of the modding on the site like the chat link and the chat options how can I fix this.

[aussieholden]

I now have it working and I have found the option that is causing the trouble :-

Display Users in Chat at top of forum?
Show number of users on Chat button?

This Causes The Forum To Crash

I have bought the Flashchat module installed it in the my.domain/simplemachinesfroum/chat folder as directed after doing so I registered myself as admin and checked out chat which seems to work fine provided I log in via the url.

I tried to download the Flashchat integration module and received this error" The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF." I have received the same error when I tried to download both integrated chat, and ajax chat as well in earlier attempts. I believe this may have been due to version incompatibility though. My current version of SMF is as follows.

Version Information:
Forum version: SMF 1.1.2
Current SMF version: SMF 1.1.3
(more detailed)

As far as I have read there should be no problem although I suspect I am experiencing operator error. Any ideas? If more info is required please just ask although I am new to this Iwill do my best to provide all I can.

Thanks

It would be worth upgrading your forum to 1.1.3 first, whether or not there is a problem with the mod.

[ardd]

I have been a little reluctant to upgrade any farther, flashchat was originally my third choice as far as chat goes. The other chats I tried where set up as modules and I was informed that the module versions where incompatible with1.1.2. 

I have noticed while browsing the modules that there seems to be a certain amount of lag between the forum upgrades and the theme and module upgrades. for the sake of continuity while trying to build membership its not a good thing to have features coming and going or waiting long periods for the features that make SMF such a great thing to be updated.

Aside from the chat rodeo, where I have been riding the bull for over a week everything seems to work well and the theme I'm using is great!

As of now I don't believe I have the technical expertise to modify any modules for compatibility purposes although I am learning as quickly as I can.

But I digress..... My main problem is trying to diagnose the problem with the chat integration module or the reason SMF is rejecting modules.

Any thoughts on possible places to look, or workarounds would be most welcome.

Hi,

I've just upgraded from SMF 1.0.11 to 1.1.3, I was using Flashchat before and have now installed the integration mod and carried out the instruction for using Flashchat in a theme ( dilber ).

The user on-line part works fine but the controls in admin do not! Flashchat will only open into the same window as my forum.

I just noticed that this mod seems to have a conflict with Coppermine! I un-installed the mod for now but would still like to use this.

Any ideas how I can get this to work?

great mod easy and clean

Cheers for the reply Col,

I think I'd rather just set it up without integration now.
I have a couple of problems firstly, I want to open Flashchat with a JavaScript link in the dilber theme. I have the link as below, but it just opens into a new window irrespective of how I set the header parameters. Could you tell me what's wrong with the link?


I have the supporting code in the header.

Code Select Expand

    //  the new chat button.
   echo'
            <td align="center" class="menubg' , $current_action == 'chat room' ? '2' : '' , '">
                <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="javascript:Start (\'http://www.mysite.com/forum/chat/flashchat.php\');" >' , 'CHAT ROOM' , '</a>       
               
  </td>';

Thanks
