AjaxChat Integration (latest version 3.2.1)

[MrNicotine]

Oops, sorry.

Custom Board sort
Portamx 1.41 (Also installed with fails, but this is fixed through parser, works fine now)
Ajaxchat integration (offcourse)
Hidetag Special
Theme: Ambassador
Language Dutch UTF8/ Dutch Iso

The reason why is specify the language so much is because this new languagepack gave me problems before.
In fact, I realize now I didn't try to set English as standard.
It's a longshot, but I'll try anyway

[TheListener]

Aha. It's portamx's SEF urls that's causing the problem. I just switched SEF off, and now chat is working exactly how it should.

See if this persons result helps you.

[MrNicotine]

That's a quick respons

I tried both, standard english en simplesef turned of, and it works fine now. I've been trying for 3 hours to fix it, read over a 100 pages of this topic,
and it's something simple as this! Just my luck

My guess would be the Simplesef was the problem.
Thanks a lot for the quick and great advise!

Just a wild stab, but if SimpleSEF uses mod_rewrite (I'm guessing so) its probably NOT rewriting to the "chat page" [ie the forum is trying to load [cause of SimpleSEF] say site.com/chatbox/      but mod_rewrite isn't setup to rewrite site.com/chatbox to actually goto site.com/index?chatbox   ,ect...properly,] someone more experianced with this mod should check SimpleSEF and modifications to .htaccess it makes, probably a simple fix to have it rewrite /chatbox/ or whatever to index.php?chatbox ect...   Just my 2 cents, having noticed several mods have some issues like that, but with minor .htaccess Mod_rewrite modifications, is an easy fix.

I've had the same problem with 2.01.

I've installed it by emulating the RC3 version of SMF (in package manager, click on advanced en set 2.01--> 2.0 RC3)
It will still install poorly, with fails, but if you follow the parser for 2.0 RC3, you will see it works. You're missing files, like I did
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?action=parse   --> at the bottom of the page you will find where to put the files you have.

But now my problem. It works fine, however, only for me as Admin.
When I change the permissions of other groups and set them to view/use chat & shout, they only see an empty shoutbox, with no text, and they can't shout.
If they use the Chat-button, it opens a new window with the index page of the forum, but no chat.

I followed through the parser twice, checking every letter, no effect.
In desperation, I tried the tip I found on page 309, also no effect.

I have a feeling it is something pretty simple, but I can't find it. Anybody know the answer to this one?

o.k thanks,I'll look for another chat.thanks

I want to see the members in our ajax chat room ( integrated in SMF  ) with their respective member group color.
Is it easy to do it?

our forum is SMF ver 1.1.15
ajax chat ver 3.2.1

Er

As I have previously stated in the other TWO topics you started this cannot be done.

The only membergroups which have colour are Admin and Mods

[tatkyatgyi]

I saw it Brack1, and thanks.

Sorry about my multi-posts because I am not sure where is the right place to ask.

I already knew that mod can't do that. On my forum the Admin and Mod only shown their color (in my chat Red and Green respectively ).
I am a admin of our forum and my members requested to me that they want to see the gender group (male or female ) with different color.
That is why I am searching , can I do changing the code somewhere. that's all.

Thanks anyway.

I'm not an expert user and I prefer mods that install without any red warnings, without having to do any manual code manipulation. I'm happy to wait and I don't want to nag on anybody, since you're all voluntary and all that. Respect.

As I see there are quite a few issues with trying to use this chat on SMF 2.0.1. So my question is simply if there are plans to make an update for that version?

[TheListener]

This is the mod which has that ability.

However please read my previous reply.

@Vegster you do realise the mod already works on 2.0.1??

Is this entirely true? There is no code I can edit or something to add another group color? If so, this is a major deal-breaker for me.

[TheListener]

I looked into it when I used version 1.1.8 (I never used 1.1 after this)

The function can be done on phpbb (apologies for the swearing)

[digitalmikey]

Can someone please help me out with getting a custom usergroup to recognize in the chat? This post (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=257973.msg2621113#msg2621113) does not work.

[Connor Macleod]

Thanks a lot for spending your spare time on this!

Good! Could you update the mod page with this info?

Do you mean this?

Aha. It's portamx's SEF urls that's causing the problem. I just switched SEF off, and now chat is working exactly how it should.

I am not an expert and not sure how to do that, or even if I have this. I use the Argentum2 theme and some other mods, but nothing called "portamx". I know what SEO means, but SEF is an abbreviation I don't know. Sorry for being an ignoramus!

I wouldn't be using it otherwise.

Where are you downloading the mod from?

The reason I was pretty sure it didn't work on 2.0.1. isn't just that it is not listed among the compatible version numbers on the download page (link above), but also that if I click on "Parse" for manual install on 2.0.1 I get an explicit message that it is NOT compatible. Therefore I didn't try installing it.

But without having tried it, I think this probably can be better than the option which I have tried meanwhile - SideSparks Chat - which doesn't have the "SMF look and feel", and also requires a separate login the first time.

[TheListener]

If you see a compatible message you need to emulate the version.
