SA Chat

[dj_king]

i didnt understand that?

Sorry for my language, I use google translator. Haber as writing to translate it "right."

When you talk to a user who closes the chat session, the chat window with you talking still open although the closures, and for several minutes ....
You know what I mean? thanks

Can this MOD and Ajax Chat both work on the same forum?

[SA™]

yes it should be fine

I've got it installed, after running into some problems that ended up being solved by the "fix bar" link.. So now my issue is that the actual public chat box that comes up through the menu loads with noting but a parse error and no functionality. Member to member messaging works fine. But the chat box displays

"Parse-error: syntax error, unexpected "/" in XXmydirectoriesXX/functions.php(184) :eval()'d code on line 1"

This is the part of the mod that I really would like to have work..

I run 2.0.7 and a modified Inferno theme at bearshq.com [nofollow]

Thanks in advance!

:edit   I'm also getting the following in my SA chat error log

INFO

   Undefined index: cban

   File: /home/bearsone/public_html/sachat/functions.php
Line: 576

this mod does not have a public chat box at the moment only private chat

[ryangassxx]

Oh ok. So when I click into the menu button on the far right, there's a link there that says "chat", when I click that I get a box that opens containing that error. Is this intentional with the chat feature pending in a later release or is this some sort of anomaly?

[SA™]

nope no chat link there by default have you added a gadget?


edit i do rember playing around with a pub chat with this a long time ago didnt work oput to good i wonder if there is remants of that maybe but i still dont see any chat link there tho

[ryangassxx]

No I think I may have done it early on when I was trying to get it to work not knowing what I was doing.. I deleted the gadget and it's gone now..  

So as far as a public chat goes, you've already explored it and you don't think it'll be a component in the future? That's sort of a bummer because I was really hoping to have that functionality. It's still a very good mod for what it is though. Thank god for people like you who develop these things. Your SA stuff is probably some of the more premium mods for the SMF platform. I use the facebook integration too.

[SA™]

No public chat will be in the mod at some point just not sure weather to have gruop chat like fb or just a public. Room

For now you can use flash chat in a gadget wich works pretty. Good inside a gadget

[SA™]

actualy had a look a the gadget code today seems there is actualy a bug with php gadgets

[MDupreejr]

this is a great mod.

A bug though...
1) If i close a chat, when they message me again the chat doesn't automatically reopen.

And a feature request:
- If there's no Social options, remove that section from the menu. Same with links. Make that whole menu smaller for those who have no content within it except for settings...


<edit>

Another small problem, there's a line at the top of my screen in firefox after installing this mod (see attached photo).

ok a quick fix for this

sachat/themes/default/js/body.js.php

Code Select Expand

if (!document.getElementById(\'cmsg\'+this) && this != null) {
    chatTo(this);
    loadsnd(\'new_msg\');
}

replace with

Code Select Expand

if (!document.getElementById(\'cmsg\'+this) && this != null) {
    chatTo(this);
    loadsnd(\'new_msg\');
}
if (this != null) {//why?
    chatTo(this);
   loadsnd(\'new_msg\');
}

this isnt the best fix fr tis issue but it workd for till i can look into it more

@SA, can you tell me how to set "show only buddies in who's online" by default for all users?

And 1 more thing, i tried this mod few months before, but it was making everything unsable/hang. Probably it was because there were many users at that time. But i really want to use this. This is the best smf chat mod so far.
Please tell me how to mitigate this server hang/unusable thing after installing.
Thanks in advance.

The chat bar doesn't recognize that the forum account is logged in.
It says: "Welcome, Guest. Please login or register."

What should I do?

Did that numerous times. 
The chat bar would not sync with the forum's login.
Disabling SA chat for a day solved the problem. Things are back into order.
Thanks!
