SMF Chat

[J. S.]

Well... the chat need to write to the data folder, if it has this permision then there should be no other problem. As I suggested before, remove the chat with your package manager and upload it manualy to [yourboard]\chat, delete the data folder and create a new empty one, set the writing permision on it, edit you settings.php file and go to [yourboard]\chat and it should work just fine.

I did a manual install .. anyway I will try it one more time. Thanks.

[dzembak]

got same problems with permissions to edit/delete settings.php too

How I make to integrate the chat's nickname with the SMF's username?
I don't want that it requests the chat's nickname to the beginning.
Can you help me?

I have install it on my local 1.1.rc2 test forum, i get this error =>  Please don't access SSI.php by URL directly; you may want to use the path ('SSI.php') or add ?ssi_function=something.
I understand its something on $boarddir in settings.php, if my forum is in http://www.mydomain/forum  can you pass the line i must put there so it works?

i installed it on smf 1.1 rc2, had to change permissions of nearly all files, anyway it works

i have 2 question

1- i want to put a link on my board to the chat, not just a link i want to insert a tab above beside the rest of the tabs, how can i do that? any ideas??

2- how do i edit the links' images inside the chat i mean (home, members, calender) or do they depend on the theme uses??

Yeah I think this one is dead - I was going to give it a go, but I see some questions not answered for months.

A MOD should remove or lock this topic.

[Okoji]

This is a good one. Nice work

[idkdell]

when i installed this mod and whent to http://eh-forum.890m.com/chat is was a blank white page after i set it up i chnged the settings and it dont even work in any template not even the board defult (the one taht comes with smf)

Update to smf 114
when...!?

[Stigmartyr]

Ok so I got the chat working.  I was curious,  how do you folks change the default time from the 24 mode it is now, and make adjustments for time zones, etc

[Urbanite]

Ive tried every link in this thread, fair to assume that this Mod is no longer supported. A truly unbelievable number of reads and downloads for so few constructive comments!..

...my opinion, look elsewhere for a chat Mod.

[Armin2008]

Please update it to smf 1.1.5 as well.

Hi J.S.,

When I click on the Sound button, I do not get any sound...?

Also, how can I set it up so that I can have a separate chat function for each membergroup?

[Baloch]

is it compatible with smf 1.1.10?
