AjaxChat Integration (latest version 3.2.1)

[Enders]

Is there a way to put this shoutbox in a block? I've tried searching, but failed

[HoTmetal]

I had a friend come by and we upgraded to 2.0 RC1 and the chat installed with no problems!!! I love this MOD.

LOL...Glad you got it sorted 

Heheh... Yeah, now that I've been away from SMF I have time for hobbies. woot..

I've recently setup a 115G reef tank. I came across Primetime's site, and he's been helping me with my tank, I thought I could return the favor.... (& help him with SMF)

@ OntarioAquariaClub
I've signed up for your site, and I see the problem you talked about.
Can you provide more information? Is there anything is the error log?
Did it (fully) install ok, without errors?
Have you gone into the Admin>Configuration>Modifications>Chatand enabled your settings?

Also, please re-read through this post,
I think mrtrc266 post on pretty url's may solve your issue.

If you have problems and you also have Pretty URL's installed please READ THIS

 

Hope that helps, if not post here and give up and update


***ADDED... also, real quick, has anyone added Lightbox into the chat?
I think it would be a nice add, as it really really sux to see a HUGE img break up the chat room...

I haven't looked too far into the, other than to install into a non-default theme.
If nobody has tried, I guess I can dig in... thought I'd check 1st

Hi..just tried to install AjaxChat on my forum and when running the test it came up with an error in the Boardindex.php file.

I checked what the parse should be replacing and mine does not look anything like that.

my code is:

$context['num_users_online'] = count($context['users_online']) + $context['num_users_hidden'];

   // Load the users online today.

And the code that it is looking for is:

$context['num_users_online'] = count($context['users_online']) + $context['num_users_hidden'];

   // Track most online statistics?

Anyway, obviously I never continued. Any help.

Using 1.1.8, but the boardindex file says the Software Version is          SMF 1.1 

[mrtrc266]

@ robone proceed with the install then via FTP download yourforum/Sources/BoardIndex.php file, edit it and upoad it back to your server. Of course make backup first.

  $context['num_users_online'] = count($context['users_online']) + $context['num_users_hidden'];

Replace with

         foreach ($userIDs as $ID)
            $query .= 'ID_MEMBER = '. $ID . ' OR ';
         //remove the last OR
         $query = substr($query, 0, strlen($query)-3);

         $result = db_query($query, __FILE__, __LINE__);
         while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
            {
            $link = '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=profile;u=' . $row['ID_MEMBER'];

Okay...thanks. I was going to do that, but just to make sure...thought I would come here.

[primetime]

Thanks RickC!! You are DA MAN!!!!!!
Yes, that Lightbox feature would be great in the chat. It works well on our other board.

Also, I need to figure out why regular members are able to delete  shouts. 

[mrtrc266]

@ rickC

Ontario and Sunking as well as a cpl others have the same problem where the install goes fine but they can't type anything in the chat or shoutbox. I just posted on Sourceforge which has a better desrciption and a few links to this problem. I'm not good at coding and don't even really understand how all this works. If you have any ideas or suggestions to get this going for these users that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for you help.

This happens when you allow users to Post Events in you Calendar, the fix for it is HERE

Thank you for the answer sir. I cant find the file "customajaxchat.php" file. Would you be so kind to point me in the right direction?

nm.. I found it.

Thank you,
Prime

 I tried the fix and no luck yet. Here is my customajaxchat.php.

Not sure exaclty what you mean by horizontally, that would be from side to side   Do you mean just changing the direction of the scroll?
