Chat Mod

[Big P]

Sorry! I forgot about the is_admin bit. I just copied some of my code! lol.
To check if someone is not a guest do this:
if ($username == "Guest") { die("Guests are not allowed enter this area! "); }

Place that at the top of the code.

I can't remember the name of the file offhand to put chat.gif in.. I'm not on my comp at the moment. I can find out later if ya like.

Okay, chat.php looks like this:

<? function ChatRoom() {

if ($username == "Guest") { die("Guests are not allowed to enter this area!"); }

$yytitle = "Chat Room Mod";
template_header();

print<<<EOT

<center>
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://irc.everywherechat.com:8000/Java/embed.js?room=rfc&width=500&height=520"></script>
</center>

EOT;

footer();
obExit();


}
?>


but it still isn't blocking guests.

Anyone??? How do I add the chat button?

[Big P]

sigh, firstly place the guest code after the header bit. And at the top of the script add:
global $username;

Thought you knew about that.. lol

Sorry, PHP is new to me. I know about 8 different programming languages, and I don't have time right now(hopefully soon) to get into it. I will try that out. Any luck on how to add the button up top? I couldn't figure out which php file it was in. Thanks again!

search for: $img[profile] in subs.php.  

[goosemoose]

Okay. I added
 $menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=chat\" target=_blank>$img[chat]</a>

next to the search icon but it never appears in the forum. I looked at the forums html code and I see the link to the action=chat but the img tag never appears. I put chat.gif in the YaBB images dir. What am I missing here?

[goosemoose]

Help?

[Big P]

Thats up to your html coding by the look of it. I dunno unless I see what you have added or edited.
Post some code of before and after

[goosemoose]

All I added was $menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=chat\" target=_blank>$img[chat]</a>

Before

Code Select Expand

$yymenu = "<a href=\"$scripturl\">$img[home]</a>$menusep<a href=\"$helpfile\" target=_blank>$img[help]</a>$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=search\">$img[search]</a>";
   if($settings[7] == 'Administrator') { $yymenu = $yymenu.$menusep."<a href=\"$cgi;action=admin\">$img[admin]</a>"; }
   if($username == "Guest") { $yymenu .= $menusep."<a href=\"$cgi;action=login\">$img[login]</a>$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=register\">$img[register]</a>";
   } else {
      $euser = urlencode($username);
      $yymenu .= "$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=profile;user=$euser\">$img[profile]</a>";
      if($enable_notification) { $yymenu .= "$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=shownotify\">$img[notification]</a>"; }
      $yymenu .= "$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=logout\">$img[logout]</a>";
   }

After:

Code Select Expand

$yymenu = "<a href=\"$scripturl\">$img[home]</a>$menusep<a href=\"$helpfile\" target=_blank>$img[help]</a>$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=chat\" target=_blank>$img[chat]</a>$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=search\">$img[search]</a>";
   if($settings[7] == 'Administrator') { $yymenu = $yymenu.$menusep."<a href=\"$cgi;action=admin\">$img[admin]</a>"; }
   if($username == "Guest") { $yymenu .= $menusep."<a href=\"$cgi;action=login\">$img[login]</a>$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=register\">$img[register]</a>";
   } else {
      $euser = urlencode($username);
      $yymenu .= "$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=profile;user=$euser\">$img[profile]</a>";
      if($enable_notification) { $yymenu .= "$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=shownotify\">$img[notification]</a>"; }
      $yymenu .= "$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=logout\">$img[logout]</a>";
   }

didnt shaun do a link for a chat button in top menu bar  i used this for 1.0 but lost it when upgraded to 1.3.1 and you can use jirc with no problem i did!

[goosemoose]

I couldn't get it to work the way I had it set up so I hard coded it into the subs.php. I know this is unorthodox but you do what ya have to! If anyone can see what I was doing wrong in the version posted above let me know. I am guessing I have to define the $IMG[chat] in another file?
