[For 1.6] EzIRC for MyBB

[arin]

I didn't quite understand the README, so;
I'm very new at adding pluggins to MyBB, so please, be patient with me. I uploaded the inc folder, and the chat.php to /public_html/inc/plugins. Did I do something wrong there? Also, I'm not quite sure what to change the $forumdir to. Right now it is $forumdir = "/public_html"/inc/plugins;

I get a few errors when I go to my plugins in my ACP, this being one of them.
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required './/global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/a1597990/public_html/inc/plugins/chat.php on line 45

@arin:
Upload the folder "inc" and the file "chat.php" to your forum root folder.

Before that, change $forumdir in the chat.php file, for me I just removed the "/" ( like this:

$forumdir = ""; )

Next,after uploading all files, you can use the existing chat room or create your own

I apologize, I can be a slow learner at times. Is the forum root folder /public_html?
Putting it just into the /public_html folder returns this error when I go to look at plugins:

Line 11 is the line with

$forumdir = "/";

You evidently messed something up when you changed it (or you didn't change it). The rest of the errors stem from that.

(Yes, the root folder would be /public_html.)

Alright, I'll test this out in a second, thank you.

What exactly is $forumdir ._.?
When I go to my site/chat.php what shows up is; $forumdir is invalid!

[Rukbat]

$forumdir is the directory your forum is in. If it's in the root of your site, it's "/". If it's somewhere else, the program has to know where that is, and it knows by using the variable $forumdir as the root location of the forum.

[arin]

Hmm.. When I put the files into FileZilla, I put them in /public_html. I changed the $forumdir to $forumdir = "/public_html;, and now I get this error when I go to mysite.com/chat.php

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/a1597990/public_html/chat.php on line 16

Can I get an estimate on when we're going to be getting the "public" or "guests can view also" feature? I'm trying to start up a community, and y'know, I'd like for my site to be as public as possible. :3

Not trying to tell you guys to rush it, just wonderin'.

Thx in advance bro's, keep up the amazing work!

How can I set custom port number? How to specify server password?
