NChat - No SQL Save BW shoutbox

[beanflying]

thanks for the response, I hope that someone is working on a chat box that will work

Before condemning the product which has been working very nicely for a lot of us you might like to take a look at what problems YOU may have with either your server/host or SMF install. Seems to me a lot of issues with nchat have been server/host and or bandwidth issues so maybe time to start paying for hosting or looking elsewhere?

Some of the last posts apart from being smoke and fog from OMGPeace make no sense at all to me and others.

Some of the last posts apart from being smoke and fog from OMGPeace make no sense at all to me and others.

Sorry? I see lot of complaints about the index.php error. Do all these complaints make no sense? As far as I know, my SMF install is ok, having no problems with other functions or modifications and my forum is running on a dedicated server. Also, I'm trying to get a bit closer to this problem, as I seem to be the first to report a "405 Method not allowed" error.

Someone is asking for a 'working' chatbox, well, there ARE alternatives, but I think this one fits best on my forum. I'm trying to place it on all pages, but first I have to make it collapsable, and the refresh has to work.

This looks like a nice chat box (I am looking for something simple).

Quick question: For a large board (we have 1 million posts serving 1.5 million page views a month), how will this compare to a AJAX powered or database driven chat box? Bandwidth is never an issue as we have unlimited bandwidth on a dedicated server.

Thanks
Mike

Hello!

I have same problem with:
The ./nchat/index.php is now unavailable! Please contact admin forum about this issue

all what was written here hxxp:thismod.com/community/index.php?topic=3.0#post_faq1 [nonactive] was done but nothing helped

maybe the clue is that problem was noticed at IE and Opera, at FF is all okay

[HunterP]

I got it working

Try and rename all occurences of "last.html" to "last.php". THis should occur twice, in NChatBoardIndex.php and NChatHandle.php.
Thanks to my hoster

[dantg]

I did that also few minutes ago and problem still occurs.

I have installed Nchat  and made the permission changes as the FAQ section directs.  I still get the The error "./nchat/index.php is now unavailable! Please contact admin forum about this issue!"

Can not get Nchat to work, I suspect it has to do with the following that I get when I click on the Mute List Manager.

Not sure what else to do, have installed and reinstalled three times, all permissions in the CMod have been set.

Notice: Undefined index: custom_tab_label_default in /....../Sources/Subs.php on line 3909

Notice: Undefined index: cb_default_2 in /......./Sources/Subs.php on line 3943

My files are all 0644 except my sounds file which is 0755... For once its finally is working!! with out the "The error "./nchat/index.php is now unavailable!

I tried your changes and no help.  I noticed an earlier thread that suggested changing all incidences of "last.html" to "last.php".  They suggested changing the occurrences in NChatBoardIndex.php (1 occurrence) and NChat Handle.php (1occurence).  That didn't help either.  I noticed that in the NChat directory there was a file named "last.html".  I changed it to "last.php" also and now it works!!!  Thanks for responding!!!

I am using simpleportal 2.3.3 and would like to have this on the portal page as well. I have tried several different way's of adding a block to my site, but i cannot get it to work on my portal page. Has anyone come up with the code required to place this on simpleportal?

I have selected php block and added this:
require_once($boarddir."./NChat/NChatBoardIndex.php");
But all i get is a black box with the name of my chat box...........any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

Can you insert HTML code in to your block? If yes...here

Create a file, let say name embed.php and but it in NChat folder

Code Select Expand


<?php
//NChat by ThidMod.com
require_once('../SSI.php');
require_once('NChatBoardIndex.php')
?>


After that insert an html code:

Code Select Expand


<iframe src="your-domain.com/forum/NChat/embed.php"></iframe>


I am using simpleportal 2.3.4 and that don`t work for me

I  installed the chat box and also get the :

The ./nchat/index.php is now unavailable! Please contact admin forum about this issue

But when I clean all it goes away and funtions fine.

So think I need to chmod some files. So where did the installer put the files at on my ftp? I can not seem to find anyfiles concerning the chat box. Maybe they are hidden? I know how to change chmod files manually but do not know how to do it through cpanel.

./NChat/index.php
./NChat/NChatBoardIndex.php
./NChat/NChatHandle.php
./NChat/NChatSetting.php~
./NChat/NChatSmiles.txt

[Buddymc]

Is there still support for this mod?

I do not have these to files in the list:
./NChat/NChatSetting.php~
./NChat/NChatSmiles.txt
Still have:
./nchat/index.php is now unavailable! Please contact admin forum about this issue


Also can not figure out permissions.

Someone help? please

[KAOS Brady]

I installed this but only admin can see the shoutbox and I can't figure out why

[Buddymc]

Same here. Must be a permission thing.
Guess there is no more support for this mod so will uninstall and find another.

[nvcnvn]

You should set permission for each group that you want them to see the chat box

[RednecK1]
