Hey all,

I've noticed that if a user closes the "logging out" pop up window of flash chat, that they remained logged into the chat, even if they log off the forums.

Is there a way to fix this? Say auto log out after X minutes? Also, is there a way I can forcefully log a user out of chat?

Thanks all!

[perplexed]

I don't know about the first one but if the user isnt really in chat but it just shows they are in chat ( because they havent hit the big red close button) then if you go into chat, and logout, it will clear their name off the 'who's in chat' list

Can I recommend the following mod "Chatroom Button" by Jake1981.

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=827

It's a modified version of his Website Button. All you need to do is add the URL of the PHP file for it to work with FlashChat on the Babylon theme.

We have Used this program and we are able to get this to work on our site and if you are having issues with Flash chat intergaration, always you can try this program

Promoting another mod in a specific mod's thread is bad form guys.

That mod may be good,  but it does not add the full integration that this mod does. That mod just adds a button... nothing more (something that would take 30 second to do by hand anyway).

This mod actually adds admin settings into SMF to let you set up the Flashchat display from the SMF admin. It also corrects a few issues that exist in flashchat as distributed.

Just wondering would this work with the current smf I am using which is  version: SMF 1.1.4,I am using the black/orange theme and I already havea  shoutbox installe but doe not work with this theme.

[Kindred]

this one will install just fine on 1.1.4, but, like all mods that actually affect the theme, will require you to manually apply the mod to your own theme.

(mods only install automatically into the dfeault theme and english language... this is true of the shoutbox mod as well)

Hi there, i have the dutch translation for the help.dutch.php file:

// --- Begin FlashChat Integration ---
$helptxt['fc_inForum'] = 'Als je chat aanvinkt dan zal de chatbox in het forum openen met gebruik van je header en footer. Als je hem niet aan vinkt dan zal Flash Chat schermvullend, extern openen (zoals de standaard installatie van Flashchat)';
$helptxt['fc_showUserCount'] = 'Laat het aantal actieve gebruikers zien in de chat op de chat button in het menu. In plaats van  "Chat" zal het "Chat [2 Users]" zeggen. (ervanuitgaande dat er 2 gebruikers online zijn in de chat)<br /> Noteer dat als je deze functie wilt gebruiken, je theme compatible moet zijn.';
// --- End FlashChat Integration ---

[MissyNL]

hi, i have translated the files for the modification.english.php  page:

// --- Begin FlashChat Integration ---
$txt['fc_chat'] = 'Chat';
$txt['fc_flashchat'] = 'FlashChat';
$txt['fc_flashchat_settings'] = 'FlashChat integratie instellingen';
$txt['fc_in_chat'] = 'in Chat';
$txt['fc_not_found'] = 'Flashchat lijkt niet te zijn geinstalleerd!';
$txt['fc_no_guests'] = 'Sorry, gasten kunnen geen gebruik maken van de chat.';
$txt['fc_private_room'] = '<i>Prive kamer</i>';
$txt['fc_users_online'] = 'gebruikers momenteel in de chat';
// For 'Who's Online' page
$txt['whoall_chat'] = 'in de <a href="' . $boardurl . '?action=chat">Chatroom</a>';

// Settings for admin panel
$txt['fc_height2'] = 'Hoogte';
$txt['fc_inForum'] = 'Plaats het chat scherm "in" het forum?';
$txt['fc_newWindow'] = 'Open chat in een nieuw scherm?';
$txt['fc_showUsers'] = 'Laat de gebruikers zien aan het begin van het forum?';
$txt['fc_showUserCount'] = 'Laat het aantal gebruikers zien op de chat button?';
$txt['fc_size_desc'] = 'The hoogte en breedte mogen absoluut (eg. 600 for 600 pixels) of een percentage zijn. (eg. een breedte van 100% zal het scherm horizontaal volledig vullen)<br /><strong>Note:</strong> Als "' . $txt['fc_inForum'] . '" is ingeschakeld, gebruik dan alstublieft geen percentage voor de hoogte. Het zal niet naar behoren werken!';
$txt['fc_width'] = 'breedte';
// --- End FlashChat Integration ---

Yes, there is a setting in the config file which will log them out automatically if they are inactive for the time you set. Change 64x24x24 to just 24x24 and they will be logged out if they do nothing for an hour.

run the mods through the mod parser and then manually do the changes to the babylon theme files.

[lawnmowertech]

can you post a   example what i need to  look for   what code do i use  etc.

That is just what the mod parser does for you.

[lawnmowertech]

mod  parser  can you  tell me  where this  is  at  ?

Go to the mod page.

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=611

Top right hand corner you will see "Manual Install Instructions for SMF" pick your smf version from the drop down box and click the Submit button.

[lawnmowertech]

Note that you MUST have already installed FlashChat into the chat directory (as per the instructions for integrating with SMF), and it must be working! Also note that you do not need to edit index.template.php to add a button (like the instructions say to), as this mod does that automatically.

where do i go  to  acess the  chat directory  is there  one on  babylon  theme ?

[Kindred]

did you install flashchat?

It needs to be installed in YourForumDir/chat

that has nothing to do with the theme.
