TaigaChat - AJAX shoutbox

[Puntocom]

My comment was actually directed at Alan Feuerstein.

If you can provide a login and URL to your forum I can take a look at the chat to try and see what the problem is.

Thanks Brogan! I have solved the problem reverting the footer template

Glad to hear it.

As I said in the PM, the chat CSS all looked fine so it had to be an outdated template.
It's always recommended to check for outdated templates after each upgrade, just in case.

I installed Taigachat first time after upgrading, it seems that I made some modification that gave that problem. Thank you for the information I'll try this next time.

Mods great!!! been pruning threw the code though removed the fadein and loads alot faster
but come on with this

    // Workaround specific to my board (mumble+cross-srcds chat integrated into taigachat ftw), sorry I'm too lazy to remove it for release :P
        if($options->boardUrl == 'http://www.gamingmasters.co.uk'){
            foreach($messages as &$message){
                if(substr($message['username'], 0, 1) == '(')
                    $message['usernameHtml'] = preg_replace('/(\(.*?\) )(.*)/', '<span class="muted">$1</span><span style="font-weight:bold">$2</span>', $message['username']);
            }
        }

Looking forward to the next release DI

Now that XF is RC1 I expect a lot of people will be looking to go live with their installs and for us, this is absolutely essential.

hey is there any way to get the editing features onto the shoutbox above forums rather than just on the dedicated shoutbox page?
thanks

ahhh i feel stupid lol

and lastly is there any way to change the format of the time i just want a simple 03:03:11 PM that way it always stays inline

 

[Paul B]

The timestamp is taken from your board settings.

 

[Brandon Chelo]

got it to just show the time edited if anyone needs it
dark_taigachat_list
find

<span class='DateTime muted'><xen:datetime time="$message.date" /> - </span>

replace

<span class='DateTime muted'>{xen:time $message.date, 'absolute'} - </span>

No possible to add only selector smilies please ?

it lacks hugely

 

[Brandon Chelo]

yeaa the drop down would be cool, i made a layout for vbulletin cyb shoutbox, really all you need is a submit button but half the noobs don't know what bbcode is so theres buttons for bold,i,l and a smiley dropdown

but i love this shoutbox its really clean and simple

0.3.0 released

0.3.0 (23/01/2010):

• Added alternative URL routes: /chat, /chatbox, /shoutbox, along with an admin option to select the primary route.
• Added option for mini avatars (16x16px) next to messages.
• Added 'Members in Chat' block on full view, showing members who have recently posted in the shoutbox or opened the full/popup view.
• Added XenPorta module.
• Added support for template code being included on pages other than the forum index.
• Added option for absolute times rather than '5 minutes ago' etc.
• Fixed 'Reverse direction' disabled not working correctly in popup view.
• Fixed the shoutbox doing a double refresh on the initial load.
• Improved width of popup view chat area at small window sizes.
• Removed redundant template include in dark_taigachat_full
• Removed pointless copyright/credit link (you're still welcome to donate though )

I decided to leave out the draggable resizing and template hooks for now, anything else is something I've forgotten.

Seems to work fine on Beta 6 as well as RC1.

Sweet work DI as usual... impressive reading the latest revisions.

How do we get that "members in chat" in the shoutbox sidebar into the sidebar, same place, of say the forum, portal, etc... so members can quickly see who is in chat at any given time? Or not possible?

Unfortunately it means an extra query on those pages (even if the block isn't used) so I'll add support for that as an admin option in the next minor release

Arf, no smilies add

A coder could look to add please ?

 

[shenmuee]

@ Darkimmortal, i have a question to you; umm how i can put smilies on TaigaChat?

Any idea if this is possible?

or

 

[Anthony Parsons]

I like that second option... not sure if it would be wise though to have it go right vs. left... being for those who have lots of smilies.
