Yes this is, er-preparing 2.2.2 asap with all the procedure more clear and fixed within today
Kasimi answered to my request on change the mod for absolute urls, he said that can be done doing a mod (or sub mod for mchat).
That's true, we will see to do this, or to make the procedure more easy, fast and that will work for all.

Did you added into overall_footer.html the code:

Code: Select all

$( "#page-header,#page-footer" ).css( { "height" : "0px","overflow": "hidden" } ); // can't be none, or events will not affect
that should hidden header and footer?

But this aspect we will improve as soon.
Particularly, if i disable for example the legend or who is chatting, the code that cause to open links as _blank not work, because the js code selector, fail on find out the element where to apply.

hi xray, also for me was a busy day today!
i'm just over and to cut the head of the bull, i updated to 3.2.5 phpBB and mChat to latest 2.2.2.

What of very nice i see, after i activated 2.2.2, is that avatar images actually display, without any modification into mchat.php file!
So seem that this part will not be necessary further more.

I will try to produce the right js code that can work with all chat themes if possible, the "display chat on click" example, and the 1.9.5 RC2 that fix something about not the linked users mode.

Hello xray ... in little delay, but coming to the point in short.
This is the here We go 2.
phpBB mChat WordPress toggle example
check the bottom right for the example of a shortcode that display as button (bottom right) and that toggle the chat on page onclick.
The procedure is now so easy, i see that there is no need to change nothing into mchat.php file, so i go right now to re-write the new procedure, and rc2 1.9.5 to achieve the joke as you see with easy.
I would like to add options for the shortcode, so it can display as button and on toggle, or like widget to load anywhere (so we can choose).
I will pm you the new procedure and code as soon! See ya!
xray

I like the button to open the chat...

I have run into some issues within my iframe while clicking on the forum home link and it opens another page within the iframe.

My mchat widget is also displaying the header still. I will need to check my code again, but I am sure I entered correctly.

I hope to revert back to before and try again.

Installed with the button, which works fine.
I only have one issue that I can see so far in regards to the header and footer still showing in my chat. I am using the OPEN CHAT box and when I click it opens with the header showing until I click the mChat. After is will then show the chat and footer minus the header.
