My first mod, ported to 6.3

Here we go:

Name: Chat Mod

Description: Lets you chat with jIRC. It has full CP support, it's 100% wordletized, it automatically gets the nick of the user/GuestXXXXX (5 random digits) if it's a guest, replaces smilies with real smilies, shows how many people are currently chatting and even invites people to the chatroom (by Recent Visitors, thanks to Olson).

Demo: http://www.lkworld.com

Link: ZIP File or MultiHack File

Requirements: UBB™ 6.3.0 Beta Release 1.0 , Mod Wordlets , jPilot License (unless you want to see an "unregistered" line after every line)

Number of downloads: [img]http://www.ubbdev.com/lk/num.php?s=chat.zip,chat.mhp[/img]

Special thanks to: Ryan Olson for Invitation Script, Brett (raiyan) for JavaScript idea, dj_rava for the Admin Command Buttons idea and Troy for MultiHack, hosting and supporting me all the way .

Screenshots: Forum Summary , Chat Window , CP

Great work LK, installed and working!
But the invite is not working, it gives errors.
I checked the readme again but all was put in the right place.

It has something to do with templatenumber(s) ???

Fixed

Can't find this in my ultimatebb.cgi:

Find:
=====

} elsif ($in{ubb} =~ m/^(pntf|pntf_js|pntf_admin|preview_post)$/) {
$templatefile = $template_match{summary_page};

Ignore that part, I forgot to upload the ZIP without it

ZIP/MHK files updated - I forgot about a Wordlet - "FieldNameSignoff" - please add it

Modified files: ubb_chat and vars_wordlets_mods

Error:

LoadStyleTemplate no longer takes a number.

(Backtrace: : ubb_lib.cgi:1830 -> sub main::Tracer)

(Backtrace: : ubb_chat.cgi:15 -> sub main::LoadStyleTemplate)

(Backtrace: : ultimatebb.cgi:526 -> sub main::chat)

Call me an idiot. I forgot to upload the 3 cgi-and-pl-files in chat.zip :rolleyes:

Just one question: in this new version, the chat reloads continuesly - isn't that to much serverload?

The page or the applet?

*ahem*
Forget that too. I wasn't at 100% yesterday. Had to run the config in CP once... It loads cont., if you don't give any time for how often the userlist refreshes :rolleyes:

Just ignore all my text in here

Where it says to look for this...

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> sub OpenFileAsVar {
push (@openedfiles, $_[0]);
local (*FILE);
local ($str);

if (-e "$_[0]") {
my $handle = $filehandle->open('file', 'readonly', $_[0]);
$str = $handle->readfile();
$filehandle->close($handle);
} else {
&CheckCachedFile($_[0]);
}
chomp($str); </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">It is actually:

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> push (@openedfiles, $_[0]);
local (*FILE);
local ($str);

if (&FileExists($_[0])) {
my $handle = $filehandle->open('file', 'readonly', $_[0]);
$str = $handle->readfile();
$filehandle->close($handle);
} else {
&CheckCachedFile($_[0]);
}
chomp($str); </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">The part that is different:

In your code you have

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> if (-e "$_[0]") { </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">In the ubb 6.3X file it is:

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> if (&FileExists($_[0])) { </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">At least it was that way for me.

Yup, sorry, thanks

Your welcome!!!

I'm glad I could put my 1 cent in and help out a little.

LK, I haven't looked at the code in a while. Is it possible to shorten the random digits for guests to like 3 or 4? I know a place where they would never get over 999 Guests using Guest### (actually the chatserver would probably crash)

5 digits == world standard.

But:

$nick = "Guest$digit[rand(10)]$digit[rand(10)]$digit[rand(10)]$digit[rand(10)]$digit[rand(10)]";

Delete the last two $digit[]

Fixed a problem: most admin commandbuttons didn't work. Please upload the new ubb_chat.cgi

I have a probelm, i see the little logo chat and no the text for connect to the chat :
