i have yet to restore chatspot's forum upon a server move, but you can download chatspot here.

oh kewel! thanks guys!

sorry to trouble you again... but is there a board where you can get tech help for this mod? im trying to do something really simple: users in the chatroom are hyperlinked to their personal profiles. my forum is designed to work in frames, so when the user profile window opens, it isnt too pretty. i want to remove the hyperlink -- could find the code no problem in chatbox -- but just cant see it anywhere here?

Dead link in chat

I installed ChatSpot and it's running fine.. but I had to remove the auto_increment from the MySQL query. I am running MySQL 4.1.9. You can log into my forum at www.televerhey.com/forum, login/pw is test/28459393. Whats happening is that messages do NOT go through and I suspect its the auto_increment because I had to remove it at message_id, and some other places.

Nevermind, I figured it out.. sorry about that!

S'ok.

Problem was solved.

Sorry my bad.

Love Chatspot

Have it up on my Web site http://www.visualeditors.com

Question: Is there a transcript option or other scheme to keep a log chat sessions?

Nope, there isn't.

Is there any way to integrate this with smartor's ezPortal? Doesn't seem to work, using the index.php codes on portal.php... help?

I'm afraid that there isn't.

That said, phpBBChatspot is only based on smartor's chatbox mod, but I think one day he decided not to respond to icedawg's queries anymore. Either way it's not affilated with him, so ezPortal support won't ever appear. Probably. I'm not sure of the whole status with that anyway. It's not in black and white anywhere as far as I'm aware.

OK, so you probably already knew that - I just felt it would be better to clarify this before.

i believe chatspot_front.php was corrected so that it is much more portable, but that might be in version 1.0.1 (thus not available for download)?

Thinking out loud here, but that could actually be quite a nice thing to do (*adds to mental tasklist*) Just a little collection of functions you could call to customize your "front" part, which is when you think about it, really important. I mean if it's not good then a user is unlikely to click the "Chat" button anyway.

Such as chatspot_front("There are %numusers in chat right now.", "Login to join chat", "[Join Chat]") etc. Outputting something like:

There are 3 users in chat right now. [Login to join chat][/b]

And then customize it to be chatspot_front(\"%numusers chatting right now - \", \"login to join them\", \"join them\");

Outputting:

3 users chatting right now - login to join them[/b]

etc.

eek. I didn't catch any of that. I'm no super-coder. I mean, I'm only 13. Anyone able to dumb this up for me?

Kaniaz is 14

Hokay, he's got a year on me .

Well, I was just saying what I could add to Chatspot so it would be nice and easy to intergrate the "front part" with ezPortal, a person's main site, or anything for that matter. But it was more of me thinking out loud than anything. There is no way that doesn't require (much) coding that would get it intergrated with ezPortal, sorry.

I will look into adding a new feature to Chatspot so you can, but it's on a really, really long tasklist right now so don't hold your breath.
