Veronica,
I am switching from phpBB to myBB and well on phpbb my flash chat intergration allowed you to see who was in the chat on the main forum page under the WHOS ONLINE (on the forum) .

How would this be done for MYBB? so we can see whos in the chat on MYBB stats at the bottom of the index.php page?

thanks!
Now I have added instructions for adding a Chat link in the MyBB 1.4 Navigation Bar
and a Who's in Chat block in the MyBB 1.4 Board Statistics Big Grin

You can get the instructions here:

Veronica,

I just installed the chat and so far it seems to be working. The only problem I have is that now when you go into the forum, when you would normally click on the "Last Post" link on the right side, I get a blank page. Nothing shows up. I can get to the posts by clicking on the forum name, then clicking on the last page that way.

Any suggestions or idea's what to do?
I can verify that the above code works with the latest version of MyBB - MyBB 1.4.13.

This might be of interest to anyone deciding to use flashchat. I created a redirect page with this code:

<html>
<head>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="6; URL=http://video-channels.co.uk/forum/flashchat/flashchat.php">
<title>Flashchat</title>
<style type="text/css">
body {
background: #F8F8F8;
font-family: Arial;
color: #000000;
font-size: 18px;

}
</style>

</head>
<body>

<div style="margin-top: 35px; text-align: center;">

<h2>Welcome to FlashChat v 4.6.2</h2>

<p>You need to be logged into the forum<br>to be able to use this chat...</p>
<p>Flashchat will load shortly!</p>

</div>

</body>
</html>

This enables the need to be logged into the forum made obvious to any user. I then edited the header template file and added this to the tabs menu:

<li><a href="#" onClick="MyWindow=window.open('/forum/flashchat/flashchatredirect.htm','MyWindow','toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,width=600,height=350,left=0,top=0'); return false;">Flashchat</a></li>

I have also altered quite a number of other pages in Flashchat that enables a display of 'users', 'how to use' and 'who is in chat' which I have also added to the header file just below the 'welcomeblock'. This display is at the top of the forum so it is very noticeable; as opposed to be being in the footer for instance. If anyone wants to know how I did this I can explain further.

Regards

Is there any fix for 1.6?

I'm finding problems with integrating flashchat 6.0 with mybb 1.6+ also. Looking on the flashchat forum is useless. They're still suggesting using the cms file changes that Veronica made eons ago and they haven't even touched their original Mybb cms file on any of the upgrades. Ridiculous.

I've been toiling with all kinds of versions for hours now and it's pissing me off.
Hi again Goggalor. Ah well, I got excited when I saw this thread had a new reply.

veronica where are you?????????????????
