MyBB Community Forums

Hi there,

I recently tried to add the blueimp AJAX chat to my forum.

I followed the instructions in the readme when it says this:

Creation of database tables ---------------------------

Execute the provided installation script by visiting the following URL with your browser: http://example.org/mybb/chat/install.php Replace "http://example.org/mybb/chat/" with the real URL to your chat directory.

But when I go on the install.php on my forum it comes up with this error: Query: DROP TABLE IF EXISTS ajax_chat_online; Error-Report: Error-Code:

And when I go on the chat directory it comes up with this error -> Query: SELECT userID, userName, userRole, channel, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(dateTime) AS timeStamp, ip FROM ajax_chat_online ORDER BY userName; Error-Report: Error-Code:

The website for the AJAX chat script for mybb is https://www.blueimp.net/ajax

Question two:

If I got the AJAX chat script up and running, would there be any to make it open in a pop up window like this when they click this link -http://i39.tinypic.com/14azbwi.png

Thank you very much for your help in advance! Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, I just really need this up and running as soon as possible.

i have the same error as well, anyone?

Ahh ! this file will require a Table specified to drop all contents in it

Question 1:
Have you used phpmyadmin to drop that table?

Question 2:
Use the built in MyBB Popup window to display your chat link.
For example:

<a href=\"#\" onclick=\"MyBB.popupWindow('chat/index.php', 'chatroom', 600, 600)>Chatroom</a>

Just adjust the numbers to resize the popup window to your liking.

I could never get this thing to work. It was too hard to set up so it was kind of a waste of time. However, I found a Java IRC Chat on the Mods area and that is what I am using right now.

Pft. IRC is the past, AJAX is the future!

Well if you have a lot of people using the Ajax, your database might get cluttered because Ajax uses a database. For the IRC you do not have to own the server your channel is on and there is no database space wasted.

It won't be using a database if you make it flat-file instead of database-driven. Hell, I do that for my custom shoutbox on my localhost forums.

So can any one give the downloading link of chat client
