FlashChat Integration

[S.N.K.!]

but how i install flashchat before if i cant install mods... i have to install mods manualy.. because i have a problem with the host..

So i must install flaschat mod first and after install de "integration mod"?

Sorry for my bada english, im from argentina...

[Tyrsson]

Install flashchat as per the instructions for integration with SMF. Those instructions are found on the tufat website.

Then install the mod.

[Sakurachan]

Got the flash chat installed fine.

You just have to tick 'SMF 1.1' when you want to integrate

[chep]

I could not get this mod to work on 1.1.10

However I had simple portal and created a "page" and put the chat into an iframe. Works fine that way too.

[S.N.K.!]

Yes. But doesnt look good.. Why is so complicated put a fu**! Chatbox or shoutbox in forum index..?? Just like a module.. Like a mod.. Like a tick an option that says "tick here to add a chat integrated your forum.."
Its so hard? I think not.. Maybe its hard for me, but for the smf's creators?? Come on...
I think they must will put "this option" in a nearly update.. Compulsory..
I have a "foroactivo forum" and this is a reality there.. Why here not?

So.. Sorry if i disturb someone.. I only want to "discharge" my fury! Ja ja

Bye boys !

1- flashchat is a standalone program.
2- this mod bridges to that standalone program, adding some of the admin interface directly into smf and allowing for the wrapping of the chat in the forum header/footer.

3- this mod and flashchat are ***NOT*** a  shoutbox or chatbox.

4- We do not include a shoutbox in SMF as standard because 90% of the systems would not use it, so it is better off as a mod.  Also, chatboxes are notorious for having security issues.

5 and finally - please refrain from swearing. It's not necessary

i have succesfully integrated the chat with smf2.0rc1.2 using the mod and chat 4.7.12 what i would like to do is open the chat in a new window rather than ove the top of the forum .
i selected open in new window in the setting but all i get is a full screen version in the same window as i browse the forum. i know this has been covered somewhere but can not find the info

thanks all

Which version of the mod are you using? The newest version allows you to set the width in the admincp area of modsettings.

i am using the latest version of the mod. i want to open it it a new window or new tab.
when using firefox if i right click the button then click open in new tab i would like to be able to do this without having to right click the button would like to click the button and it open in a new tab

hope this makes my intentions clearer

Okay then in the admincp select for it to open outside the forum. Should then open in a new tab if your browser is set to open all new windows as tabs.

i've gone to the admincp but don't see an option to open outside the forum even if i untick all options it still won't open in a seperate window.

thanks for all the help so far

I searched the thread here for this error, but didn't find an answer.

I'm getting the following error in my log under Modifications.english.php

I am using SMF2.0 RC1.2 on default.

I've attached a picture of the code where the error is being pulled.



Looks like I have a 2nd error in the same file, too.  In the second error, is it the spelling error that is causing it?  "me" should be "be"

[Tyrsson]

Yes that looks like a typo, however, you still have not actually listed the error. You posted screen shots of the language files but that does not tell me what the error is.

[C4G-TK]

Crap Crap Crapppppp.  I cleaned out my log after I took the pictures and I already emptied my trash bin on my computer!  I'll get back as soon as I get it in the log again.  Sorry, Tyrsson.  I was in a rush earlier, my bad!

No problem, trust me we have all done it at one time or another.

Its most likely going to be an undefined index error. When was the last time you cleared the forum cache? When you add a mod that adds text strings you will want to clear the cache so the forum will re cache the language files.

[C4G-TK]

I was able to get one just a second ago...

[Tyrsson]

I will try to install a version of this later (since I need to update it anyway) and will post back as soon as I track it down.

As I said in my earlier post. If the settings are correct in the admincp under Modifications>Flashchat>Open in new window (which it is now) when you click on the chat button the chat opens in a new window

If you have any further questions please feel free to post here or in the thread on my site for this mod.

Add this to the top of the file just above the language strings.

global $boardurl;I think I missed this edit when I made the latest package, will check it later tonight or tomorrow when I get time to make sure. Thanks for reporting it.

Looked through my admin.php but can't find the line to edit

And because it is a tar.gz file, can't edit it

Also,

I get an error on the forum page. Says:

Database Error
Table 'blogbug_smf.connections' doesn't exist
File: /home/blogbug/public_html/smf2/Sources/Subs.php
Line: 3488

Please Help!

Thanks
