Love the chat!  Installed so easy!

I have a couple of questions.  Is it possible to have more than one chat for a board?  I want a chat for adults 18 and over and a chat for kids under 18.  How can I do this using your program?

Also, the area for Admin Functions doesn't have any thing next to it.  The only thing I can do is clear the chat.  I wanted to be able to put our name on the chat and see what other options I have as the admin.  I saw on another post that this is where I look.  But again, all it says is:
Admin Functions:  <there's nothing here> 
Clear Chat button

What is the difference between SMF ACHAT and AjaxChat Integration (other than AjaxChat Integration gives an error when installing)?  Has anyone tried both?

Rudolf, alpha versions should be allowed since I dont have time to test myself on all versions of SMF and all server types I need some way to hit everyone and straighten out bugs. Big companies do this all the time such as Microsoft and etc. Noone can ensure smooth running of PHP scripts because of all the different servers and configurations. Sorry if this disappoints you somewhat but at least I'm honest and dont write that the mod is 100% safe and works great.

I've just picked up this mod again and im working on it once again, so any suggestions or problems please let me know :) if your using this mod already please update to 0.2.0

So, I followed the manual instructions, did the CHMOD, etc. and I'm receiving the following error:

Database Error: Table 'projecu2_smf1.smf_tpv_chat' doesn't exist
File: /home/projecu2/public_html/forum/Sources/tpvchat/func/chat.php
Line: 43

Database Error: Table 'projecu2_smf1.smf_tpv_chat' doesn't exist
File: /home/projecu2/public_html/forum/Sources/tpvchat/func/chat.php
Line: 48

Attached is a screenshot of my chat window.

Any ideas?

EDIT - Nevermind. I forgot to upload and run tpvchat_setup.php and sbox_setup.php from the forum directory. Manual install parser doesn't really make that clear.

A little bit old topic but i have install this mod and get the same error as above.

I see that i have to to upload and run tpvchat_setup.php and sbox_setup.php from the forum directory, but i don't know how? can anyone please tell me.....i am quite new with smf an ftp programs, i got filezilla...

thanks

gr

yes you need to run tpvchat_setup.php. I dont know how you can do this manually?? try making a php file with include('SSI.php path here...'); include('tpvchat_setup.php path here...'); and I think hopefully that will setup the DataBase you require in SMF :) also try installing the newer version 0.2.1

And can to save massage To have scroll of all posts and not just the last 20

unfortunately thats the only admin option available at this time. I'll be working to expand this mod soon so dont worry :)

Any experts on this mod know why I can't see the text when someone enters or exits.  It's just a gray line with the [DEL] option on the right of the grey line.

I checked code on chat.php and it looks fine.

Give me a PM if your still having this issue and I will try and help best I can :)

Firstly this mod is abandoned by its developer and I've just been keeping it on life support pending a better one appearing...as was indicated as being in development by another member but has yet to make an appearance.

You query about overwriting is an odd one...it is not a good way to go about fixing the problem...simply uninstalling the old version and installing the new would be far better...if that were not possible via the Package Manager one could make the changes manually but it would not be at all sensible to assume that only files with tpvchat in their name would be affected. Off hand I can't remember if there were alterations to files the mod adds or affects that don't have tpvchat in their names but a proper manual uninstall of the old mod and install of the new if the Package Manager were unable to be used would be prudent.

Your last query is a simple one to answer...there aren't any.

Sorry I had personal life problems, but im back to continue this mod :)

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

  Ive been trying to install Ajax chat, as well as a few others that frequent this forum, and no-one can or will provide a step by step solution to the problem. In my opinion if there is a troublesome Mod being put out there, it should be corrected, If for no other reason, than to just aleviate these problems for the smf users. i run 1.1.11 and Cant have a chat on my forum mainly because i dont know how to make a manual adjustment to the code, and no-one here is willing to help. I only get vague answers and run-around. Hrere is the problem i have, and it seems to be quite quite common.

I have made adjustments to the code that have been described in this thread.
The Mod is working correctly, at least how i want it to work with one exception.
Is there any way we an get this to open up the chat in a separate window?
So users can be in the chat and still browse the site.

Create|Edit a button in your website, possibly the menu bar, through subs.php and set the href to:

Quote'http://chaturl" target="_blank',

Simply edit the url do fit your website structure.

Or if you use a portal system, you can create a block that contains the chat in it (depending on what portal you use, you can make the chat collapsable. In that case, make a HTML block with this:

Quote<iframe src="http://something.com/forum/chat/" width="100%" height="500px" />

Again, edit the url, and note that height and width parameter can be given in pixels or %, experiment with it to see the effects.

Finally, if you don't use a portal system but want to put the chat into all pages of the site, you can use the Global headers and footers mod, and add the iframe to the header or the footer, making the chat get displayed throughout the entire website either at the top or bottom, respectively.

If you wanna have a quick idea of what the portal version looks like, click in the LinKloud logo in my signature.

Has anyone any idea how many members can be in Ajax chat at once?

I see there's a counter "0/1040! in the bottom left corner, but this doesn't change when people enter/leave the room.

welshdog

This looks like an awesome Mod... or would be *if* someone would take it on and get it functioning properly. Right now it's just tantalising! :)

I've no expertise whatsoever in Ajax so can't even begin to help but boy I wish someone would.

My own installation at http://www.australianopinion.com just returns "Internal Serve Error" when I try to use it. I tried using CHMOD to set all files at 777 as someone suggested somewhere in the thread, but it didn't work. Maybe the Mod will never work with SMF version 1.1.11 but I live in hope.

If anyone has any suggestions about resolving our error I'd appreciate them. :)

i got that error too..please help..

great nuvi

Hi. I just successfully installed this using the package installer (not sure what it called) and the thing is there is no chat icon on the navigation bar the one on top. Is this because of the theme i'm using. I'm using pBlue theme.
