Icy Phoenix

Hey Everyone

Ok. Lastnight I sat here until I figured it out and I did. I got the flashchat users (who's online) to work and now you can display it in the 'Who's Online' block in the forum and in a block on the portal. I will list how to do both. There is a bit more I would like to do with this and i'm just not proficient enough in mysql and php to do it so maybe someone can help me?

All work based off of v4.7.10 and ICY 1.0.11.11 RC

REMEMBER to back up your files!


First the block creation:

1. Create Text/HTML block and give it the settings you want.
2. Now insert this into the Text/Html section:


Note: src="chat/info_embedded.php" the src path needs to be the correct path from root to info_embedded.php.

3. Save your your work and refresh the portal and it should be working.

Example screenshot:



Now the Who's Online Block in the forum area:

1. Yes you could just use the block we created but some people may not want too and I think it looks pretty good in there anyway.
2. Locate your index_body.tpl and make the following changes:

FIND



AFTER, INSERT



Same as above make sure the 'src=' is the correct path to info_embedded.php. The 'font' line I have in there is to give it a heading so it looks better in the block.

Here is a screenshot:



You can edit the info_embedded.php file to make changes to the actual text that is displayed in the block.

I will make another post for help with my additions to this little mod I guess you can call it.

So enjoy and hey i'm getting a bit better at this php stuff this is getting scary. Now I am a danger to my website :)

Your Welcome.

If anyone has any clue on how to help me with my other suggestions to make this little integration complete please post and I will test the code and hopefully get it working. Once all this works I will edit this post and it will be the end all to FlashChat in Icy :)

For those of use who are, shall we say, PHP challenged :mrblue: ...can you explain what this means? I couldn't find a file named info_embedded.php. Only files I can find that refer to the ajax chat that would make sense to me don't bring up the information you show in your screenshot. Thanks BTW, this is a cool mod. :*)

Lucentgem this is for FlashChat it is a seperate chat program outside of Icy Phoenix that is used by a lot of people.

Here is where you can get it. It's a pretty nice program and from what I have seen stable and its only :)

I've been using FC for a couple years now.. It is a great chat s/w package. I integrated it with my phpbbFM forums and it worked great! I can't wait to play around with ICY and Flashchat!

Got Flashchat working today.

Here are some screen caps for setup via CMS page








Here is the code to put in the page..

Thank you very much for posting this. :mricy:
