I don't think it's related to the page handler rewrite rules of apache because even if I try something like this, it doesn't work: $room = "test123"; $params['channels'] = array { $room };

What I'm trying to say is that for some reason even if I use an internal variable array for the $params['channel'] array it doesn't work. Could you possibly check this?

well the reason you guess is not possible. Did you use array { $room } or array($room)? You have to use round brackets like array($room) to set an array in php ;)

Otherwise you could try a different name for the variable..

If all the stuff doesn't help you have to wait until the next release..

The curly braces is a typo, for some reason it isn't working.
What I'm doing is:

$groupRoom = get_input('room');
$params['channels'] = array ($groupRoom);

if I echo $groupRoom to the page then I get the room string specified in the URL.
Any thoughts?

does anyone know how to increase the height of the textbox where users type in messages? I have looked everywhere but cannot find it.

try out different themes, they vary in the height of the textbox.. if you want to have more control you need firebug+some css skills to write your own theme

hi, why i m getting this error message: please help me........

forgot to mention i m using elgg 1.5 thanks

abstract from INSTALL file:

- Your webserver requires read and write permission to the mod/chat/pfc/data folder.

However the webserver has to have the permission to enter the directories, so the directories need the x flag.

I suggest that you change the owner of the data folder recursivly to www-data (or however youre webserver user is called) and set the permissions to 700

chown -R www-data  /home/ssss/teee/defde.com/mod/chat/pfc/data

chmod -R 700 /home/ssss/teee/defde.com/mod/chat/pfc/data

greetings

Thanks Felix for the udpate but i have already set the data folder to chmod 777 but still doesn't work. i am with shared hosting so i think they will not allowed me to change the owner of the data folder. if any solutions would be great. thanks a lot.

Hi, now i  m not getting  any error.....so all the errors are fixed but the when i click the "Chat" it says:

Chat loading ...
Please wait

but it's not starting..... plz help.

thanks

Is there anyway to set the chat plugin so that it has a link from the Tools drop down menu rather than on the top bar itself?

Reason I ask is that if you add anything to the top bar it overwrites part of the chat link... even any message numbers added to the mail icon disruptes it as well.

@jededitor

On my installation, I cannot reproduce that...

Its down to a plugin I have that allows me to add a dropdown menu for external pages...  The plugin is a higher priority for me than the chat unfortunately. Moving the chat link to the tools DD seems to be the best solution.

Any ideas how to set the language of chat with the user's language?

I suppose it must be something like this in index.php?:

• $params['language'] = 'elgg user site language'; // how to get Elgg user language?
  
• $params['dyn_params'] = array('language');
  

Hello, I have trouble with IE8.

The user list is not on the right, there's a trouble with css because if I ask IE using "old mode" it work's fine !

An idea ?

Christophe

is there a screenshot of how this looks with elgg?

Come on Felix - we need a version with the option to put the 'chat' link in the 'Tools' drop down menu rather than in the top bar itself...

anybody using this with elgg 1.5? as the install file says using it with elgg 1.5 could create problems??

yes please somebody give us details on 1.5 and let us know how it is working.

I sure would appreciate a .zip file instead of a tarball. Yea, sure, I could download a tarball unzipper for windows (My server is linux, but I test everything on my windows computer first), but it is a pain. Plus, while windows does not come with a tarball unzipper, linux does come with a .zip unzipper, so it is just logical to go with the more used format.

I'm using it with 1.5 and it works okay...  Create a default room first!

Winzip is trash software that contains nothing but trashy code and spyware tho.

Izarc unzips everything.

I like the idea
