AjaxChat Integration (latest version 3.2.1)

[wladymeer]

Is there any way you can disable "chat" link on the top menu for guests? In other words, is there any way to make that link visible to members only? Or, is there any way to require username & password match to SMF username base for logging into chat or something like that?

Main idea is to prevent guests from logging in so anything will do

Also, I have joomla for my main page - are you familiar with showing that "X user is in chat.:" link there?

I apologize if those questions were asked already but I've searched topic and couldn't find it.

And I also apologize for bumping this up but it seems to me you missed it - but I really admire your feedback

If I activate shoutbox I get the following error (18:55:20) ChatBot: Error: Connection status: 500

Yeah that's the same error as when you try to access your chat.

In almost every case this is solved br settin those files to 755.

Due to your website intergration this might be something different, what it the content of your .htaccess file?

TL are you talkin about replacing the word "ShoutBox?"

No

When in the chat at the top it says ajax chat.

By default your users should automatically be able to log into the chat with thier SMF username/password.

If guests are getting in be sure to set the permissions in your SMF Admin to disallow guests to access chat/shoutbox.

Both files are set to 755, chat and shout folders are set to 777
Condtents of .htaccess is
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php
<Files 403.shtml>
order allow,deny
allow from all
</Files>
deny from 94.102.59.130
deny from 64.59.134.9

I'm providing you with pictures.

As you can see, I set none permission for guests but they can see "chat" link in main menu. And you can see I logged in as a guest (that number username) further.

What I do want is to ask is there any way I can remove chat link from main menu for guests?

@ Bionic Rooster, Sorry but Im not too familiar messing with site intergrations or .htaccess but this might help. This is related to another user who getting a 404 error (which your error page says you're getting as well)

http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=2811928&forum_id=774132

Maybe try adding to your .htaccess what this user did.

I tried adding DirectoryIndex portal.php index.php index.html index.htm and it still does not work.
