hi thanks for your reply,
you can have a look here, when you type the name of a user in text nothing happens, i belive ajax takes care of the challenge input. If ajax is not doing it there should be  a button that posts the user that is fed in to the form. But nothing happens. the only way a person can challenge is by using the quick challenge . you can have a look at

Feeble has been providing excellent support for this mod and making drastic and rapid improvements so I am sure he will address any problems found now that the mod is released and more people have their hands on it for testing.  ;D

Re-upload the entire SMFChess folder to your $themedir.  Something is certainly missing, and likely it's something in the scriptaculous directory.  If you're missing any files from there, the selection of a player to challenge won't work.  Honestly, the mod is not broken, it is your installation.

I'm a bit confused as to why guests can see the challenge page, but never the less.

I know what the problem is, I just don't know exactly whats causing it.
Ok first off, the problem is that the window.onload event is not executing which is causing this issue.

Now I'm really not to sure why this is, I have a feeling its something to do with your theme, and possibly
<script src="/logs/logforums.php"></script>
Which is located at the end of your page, but this is just a guess as I couldn't see anything else that looked wrong.
What is that anyways, php files aren't normally used to replace js file and there is nothing in that file.

And since you have made your theme using the default theme, I can't ask you to check it to make sure that works. I really can't help at this point in time, I'll look into it a bit more but with out more tests I can't really help.

You could try the mod with another theme, and see if that fixes it, that way you can cut down on possibly problems that may be causing this.

I don't know much about SMF2 yet, but I wonder if this is going to be the norm.  Are mods for 1.1.4 and 2.0 going to be so different that they have to be kept seperate from each other?  Does this mean we'll never see a tournament as part of the 1.1.4 code?
I'm really not sure just yet, I'm still thinking about what to do about this. Also I don't think the public release of SMF 2 is that far away, maybe a month or 2.

samvirtual

Thanks for your reply Feeble.
1. My theme is the default theme. i have merely made some changes in the the font sizes, and substituted 3 - 4 images with my own. No change in the source code.
2. I have tried removing the js you have mentioned. Still the same
3. I believe i had not adjusted the permissions, so guests were able to access the challenge.
4. I have a hover mod installed that uses js, Could that be interfering?

Thanks mate :)
Do NOT give admin and/or ftp details to just anybody, see if they are trust worthy first!!  Do your homework ;)

Hi feeble, i think i figured out the problem. my guess was right the board hover mod was in some way interfering. Javascripts dont like each other, i have had this experience. I removed the board hover mod, and the problem appears to have disappeared.

hi thanks for your reply here is the link to the board hover mod.

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1065

Demonstrates a hack with mouse over highlights that allows you to select by clicking anywhere in highlighted "hover" area forum topics, subjects, child boards and message subject.  Clicking in the field will take you to the board, first post, first unread post or last post.

Utilizes Janos Horvath's hover emulation java script for Internet Explorer (IE) compatibility.  It is the users responsibility is to check the site for script updates.

Tested with: Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari.

Live Demo:  http://www.eastcoastrollingthunder.com/smf/index.php?action=forum

samvirtual

appreciate your comments, but what is the 1440 about, and i would encourage some criticism.

Lord Anubis

He meant if this is your site
http://www.eastcoastrollingthunder.com/smf/index.php?action=forum

then you have your users online thresh hold to 1440 which is 24 hours

samvirtual

no Lord Anubis that is just an example to illustrate the board hover mod, that was interfering with the the java scripts of the chess mod. my site is rxusmle.com

Hi there. I have a few problems with SMF at present so this might not be the best place to post this?

I tried setting up a game of chess with a friend. However he cannot access it and has a message similar to "You do not have access to chess"

I was thinking this might be something to do with admin rights or permissions? Can anyone help please?
Many thanks again.
:)

Bigguy

Have you set all permissions for all the membergroups so they can play chess. ???

Godsongz

I would also recommend setting "Guest" permissions so they can "View Chess". 

Chipfryer

I am so sorry. Yes I see that in there now. Many apologies.
I'll get mi coat. :)
