Hi, i have been trying to set up Toksta Chat to work with my Elgg 1.0 site but have had no luck so far.
I have tried placing the two scripts in the footer.php, and although the chat bar and "start chat" link are visible, the script is not recognizing the user / friends etc....and also confused how to set this to work for logged in users only.
I have pasted the two scripts below
area of your source code, transferring necessary user data //place this script on every page if the user is logged in !!! $tk_name = "THE_USERNAME"; //<-- please set the username here $tk_user_id = "THE_USER_ID"; //<-- please set the user ID here $tk_gender = ""; //<-- optional (the gender of the user can be female or 'male') $tk_age = ""; //<-- optional (the age of the user e.g. '23') $tk_single = ""; //<-- optional (is the user single? 'Yes', 'no', '0' = no information) $tk_profile_url = ""; //<-- optional (url to the users profile) $tk_pic = ""; //<-- optional (url of the users picture) $tk_city = ""; //<-- optional (city where the user is located, e.g. 'Berlin') $tk_zip = ""; //<-- optional (users zip code, e.g. '92553') $tk_country = ""; //<-- optional (country where the user is located, e.g. 'Germany') //DO NOT EDIT THE FOLLOWING CODE! $tk_user_data="name:".$tk_name. ";gender:".$tk_gender. ";age:".$tk_age. ";single:".$tk_single. ";url:".$tk_profile_url. ";pic:".$tk_pic. ";city:".$tk_city. ";tk_zip:".$tk_zip. ";country:".$tk_country; //implements the js needed by the chatWatcher and to start a chat $tk_hash = md5($tk_user_id.$tk_user_data."Nkk6uLcrMDGmB5SmJfBs"); $tk_js = ""; echo $tk_js;
Chatten"; echo $tk_link; ?>
Can anyone help with this?

Hi everybody, i'm new at Elgg and pretty much have no idea how to do anything. I followed Brucepro scripts for the chat but placed it in html/views/default/spotlight/default.php.
Now, the link appears in the spotlight but when i click on the link it says "an error ocurred. Chat-Session is invalid"
What am I doing wrong? I am using the default theme
Please help!
Well, its working for me. I think I will do a plugin so everyone can use it easily.(Depends on Demands)
Hi @Brucepro, I just downloaded and installed Toksta scripts as indicated in the Installtion instructions, and the "chat now" link appears on the user profile but when I click on the link, nothing happens except there is "Error on Page" at the bottom bar of the window. I saw your response to @DIane007 below but I don't understand what to do. Could you please give more details of what I need to do to make chat work? Thanks so much!
"I placed mine in the spotlight area of the new theme. :-)
here is the code I used. Works great, not sure I like the pop up ads. Hope it helps....."
Hi @Brucepro, forgot to mention that I'm using Elgg 1.6.1 Thanks!
