Developer Last Online: Jan 2018 I like it Show Printable Version Email this Page

This thread is in the Modification Graveyard.
vB Version: 3.8.x Rating: (11 votes - 4.91 average) Installs: 189
Released: 16 Nov 2008 Last Update: 15 Feb 2009 Downloads: 949
Not Supported Uses Plugins Auto-Template Translations  

This modification is no longer available or supported.

Note: I no longer use Flashchat, and development and support of it at Tufat appears to have died in 2010.


This is a simple display of who is currently chatting in FlashChat - on the forum homepage display.

Note: This is compatible with Flashchat 5.0.x only, it will not work with Flashchat 4.

* Flashchat 5 is no longer available - this should work with Flashchat 6, but this is not a supported option *

The main features are ;

1. It displays the list on Forum Home with the "Users online" display.
2. The list view is collapsable, so you see just the number.
3. Users who should display as coloured or bold etc are displayed correctly (based on the display usergroup)
4. If you 'hover' over a username it will show the room they are chatting in and their status (away etc).
5. If the chat is empty, a simple "no one is chatting" message is displayed.
6. The option to record and display the Most Ever chatters can be enabled.
7. The ability to turn it on/off is in the ACP Options.
8. The ability to allow only certain usergroups to view the list is an ACP option (include or exclude groups).
9. The location of the Flashchat folder is an ACP option

(Options are located in vBulletin Options > Who Is Using Flashchat).

Unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.


Further Notes:

This hack cannot display any bots in the chat, due to the strange way that Flashchat stores this information.

I have no connection with the Flashchat product - if you have questions about Flashchat functionality then their forums are located here.


Template Hook

Please note that this modification uses the following template hook in the FORUMHOME template ;

forumhome_wgo_pos2

This must be present in any customised template/style you are using, otherwise this modification will not display.



History:

v3.8.001 : First release for vb 3.8.x
v3.8.002 : Fix Most Ever Display Bug.

yes, but again it was working before the most recent upgrade to 3.8.0. All I want it to do is show on the forumhome like it did before the upgrade yesterday.

You are missing the template hook that this requires, you must either revert the forumhome template, or add the hook to it.

Adding the template hook would be a lot easier for me. What is the hook for this? I know where it should go, but not what it should be.

EDIT: Nevermind, there are 5 hooks, and comparing the default style with my custom one they weren't hard to find.

No, there is currently no 3.8 version for FC4.

You could install the 3.7 version and I *think* it will work - but you will have to edit the xml to allow it to install on 3.8
