mChat

[jeffm2008]

Only change the "<!-- INCLUDE mchat_body.html -->" place in the index_body.html file.

Worked like a charm! Thing of beauty! very impressive mod...thank you very much for this!

one : how to put the chat on all pages ? as in a reply page all peoples can view the chat and talk in too .

Try this: Ignore the edit for index_body.html and put

Code: Select all

<!-- INCLUDE mchat_body.html -->

in overall_header.html or overall_footer.html instead.

hello so i have a problem when i put the code on the overall header
problem copy code :

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 15393 bytes) in /homez.99/robpleas/www/forum/includes/functions_template.php on line 103

whut i need doeing

and i want too a reply for my 2nd question :

can i add avatar when people talking on chat ?

[isNumB]

i installed it finally... great mod. Anyway, to change width and height you have to find the values in mchat_body.html, isn't it?

EDIT: I've found where to change those values. Thanks anyway.
EDIT No.2: Where can i change the box height for the message. e.g. when i make the height of the entire mchat body to 100px it only fits in it 2 messages. But i want to fix 5... so how can i change the height of the message box. Thanks.

yeah this mod rocks. Is there anything we can add? Avatars? Currently chatting?

Also when a guest logs in it gives "Access Denied". Can I customize this message? For example: "Please register to chat".????

Works great!

[sentinelace]

I installed this MOD on phpBB 3.05 and it works great.

The only issue I had was with the CSS/JS includes, which would cause a load conflict.
What was happening was that there would be a white page with no styles while the browser loaded the JS/CSS before your sites CSS/JS. This was resulting in the style-less page. You can usually see this when you "logout".

In my forum I just use the chat on its own, not within my actual forum index file.

the solution for me in this case was to remove

Code: Select all

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{ROOT_PATH}mchat/mchat_prosilver.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="{ROOT_PATH}jquery_core_mini.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="{ROOT_PATH}jquery_cookie_mini.js"></script>

from the overall_header.html of my style and instead place it in the mchat_body.html file

Code: Select all

<!-- IF MCHAT_ARCHIVE_MODE or MCHAT_CUSTOM_PAGE -->
<!-- INCLUDE overall_header.html -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{ROOT_PATH}mchat/mchat_prosilver.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="{ROOT_PATH}jquery_core_mini.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="{ROOT_PATH}jquery_cookie_mini.js"></script>
<!-- ENDIF -->

This guarantees that your own styles/JS load BEFORE the mchats.
Resulting in no style disturbances.

ENJOY!

Good job! Thanks.

I want to put the chat in it's own. How is this done?

[muggins]

At the bottom of mchat.php, there are these lines:

Code: Select all

// Template
if(!$mchat_include_index)
{
  page_header($user->lang['MCHAT_TITLE']);
    $template->set_filenames(array('body' => 'mchat_body.html'));
  page_footer();
} 

The first uncommented line says: "if NOT{the variable that is set when mchat is on the index page}, then do what's in the following curly brackets, which is to output the page...

I'm sure the instructions are in the install.xml, or early on in this thread somewhere. A year ago I might have asked, too.
