FlashChat Integration with 1.1.1 Final, 1.1RC3 & 1.1RC2 Default Theme

[lesmond]

Hi, got this working fine Thanks, But (there has to be one  ) I have it working in my helios theme but it only shows up with the text black, how do I make it white?


as you can see from this img

Thanks Les

At least you got your working. I've been trying for a week now and I'm getting all kinds of errors 
I'm still determined to fiigure it out though. My first problem was the database connection. Flashchat installed into my database as smf_fc_connections. So the database path YOURDATABASE_fc_connections did not work. I got that figured out after a couple of times. Then I get everything installed and I get an error on the index.template.php page on line 656. something about a T string. Blah blah blah. I'm new to php so it takes a while for mew to figure stuff out. If I get real stuck I'll post some code here.

Back to the grind.

lesmond,
In /smf/Themes/default/boardindex.template.php, change this color:

Code Select Expand

<td class="titlebg" colspan="2"><font color="#000000">FlashChat Users</font></td>
From font color #000000 to #FFFFFF

You can also change FlashChat Users to Your board name chat users or whatever here.

Thanks Cowboy, That changed the title, but I would like the text below in white, I have circled the bit I mean

[Simplemachines Cowboy]

lesmond,
In chat/info_embedded.php, find:

Code Select Expand

#roomList a { color: black; text-decoration: none; } #roomList a:hover { text-decoration: underline; }


Change "black" to whatever color you would like.
This will change the ROOM list only.

I have performed the steps and I have a chat link at the top like I should, but when I click on it I get the following error:

Fatal error: smf_main(): Failed opening required '/home/teamente/public_html/smf/Sources/Chat.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/teamente/public_html/smf/index.php on line 348


I have created the chat.php and placed it in the sources directory as the instructions state.  Any ideas?

Thank you that done the job

i have only one room in my chat place.
so i want to make users in chat list  as horizontal not vertical..

like this -> user1, user2 , user3

not like this
user1,
user2,
user3

could someone help me?

[Xerxes]

Alright, it took a week plus but I got it working. If a n00b like me can do it anyone can. The instructions were fine and worked perfectly. I had a problem with a cut and paste that kept commenting an echo. DUH! Looks and work great now. Thanks for the directions/tutorial.

[Xerxes]

Now that I managed to get this to work, I have 2 questions.

1) Why am I getting this error in some places

Code Select Expand

Notice: Use of undefined constant chat1 - assumed 'chat1' in mydomainpath/forum/Sources/Load.php(1609) : eval()'d code on line 80

I changed chat_1 to chat1 in all the code because I see no reason for the underscore. Also, mydomainpath is the correct path.

2) At the bottom of the forum where it shows who is in the chat it has the room name and then you can see who is in the room. If I have more than 6 people in the room, the table does not expand downward to allow me to see all the users.

Thanks for any Input.

  After following the instructions to the "T", I'm getting this error:

Code Select Expand

Parse error: parse error, expecting `','' or `';'' in .../Themes/escapes/index.template.php on line 761

752:
753: function template_flash_chat()
754: {
755: $chatrequest = db_query("
756:             SELECT COUNT(*) AS numb
757:             FROM  smf_fc_connections
758:             WHERE userid IS NOT NULL", __FILE__, __LINE__);
759:         list ($chatcount) = mysql_fetch_row($chatrequest);   
760:         mysql_free_result($chatrequest);
761: if ( @$_GET['action'] != "chat" )
762: {
763: if ( $chatcount == "1" )
764: {
765: $singularplural1 = " is ";


The template being used is identical to the default, just a color variation of it.  It appears all other modifications are okay.  Not being a PHP-pro, I'm not sure where I've erred, and am in need of some help.

Many thanks!

dkaye315,
Not sure but I think you are missing a bracket when you did the edits.  Look close again at the replace given in instructions. I think maybe you need } on line 752 but not sure could be later down the bracket is missing. This is just from looking at the instructions.  I have not actually installed this yet.  Just reading to see what it takes.

647 if ( @$_GET['action'] != "chat" ) {
648 if ( $chatcount == "1" ) {


Look where the brackets are in the example shown above, compared to your lines 761-764.
I suggest you go back and recopy the whole block from the example and paste it in.

I have done all this but wen somebody try to login, apear te mensage, you`ve been banned.

[philuk]

Will this work for smf 1.0.7? all this RC stuff version confuses me.

[Simplemachines Cowboy]

phil,
This is for 1.1 rc2 and above. Much has changed in the jump from 1.0 to 1.1.
There is another post which has usable instructions for the 1.0 series, altho it's a bit out of date for even 1.0.7.

[Simplemachines Cowboy]

sopas,
If you mean when you try to log into FlashChat, you get banned, you need to search on the flashchat forum for that fix.
It has something to do with the usergroups in smf. I think there was a post a couple pages up from this that talks about it also.

[sopas24]

Cowboy, sorry my english í am portugues, could you put here tehe link for that post, ta.nk´s

[sopas24]

Another thing i can put the buton chat in apollo, justa apear the place like a "x".

YES.  This is a problem.

I just upgraded to the latest version 4.5.7.

Quite a few members are reporting being banned.

It DOES have to do with groups in SMF.

I believe you can just increase the number of groups in sfmCMS2.php

here....

Code Select Expand



function getRoles($status, $additionalGroups) {

  if($status == 1 || in_array(1, $additionalGroups)) return ROLE_ADMIN;

  if($status == 2 || in_array(2, $additionalGroups)) return ROLE_MODERATOR;
  if($status == 3 || in_array(3, $additionalGroups)) return ROLE_MODERATOR;

  if($status == 0 || ($status > 3 && $status < 9 )) return ROLE_USER;
  if(in_array(0, $additionalGroups)) return ROLE_USER;

  return null;
  }



you are probably getting this error because you have more than 9 Groups???

That's my best guess anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope that's right!

(can someone please confirm???)

Thanks!
