123FlashChat & JomSocial: Showing users

[Frodo]

I have version 9.2 integrated with JomSocial on my site and with that, a specific problem.

With other chats that I have used, I managed to turn off the area that shows who is in the chat at that moment. What happens is that people first look at who is chatting, and then decide to join in or not.

Consequently, there are less and less people logging in (experienced chat operators might recognise this problem).

So, how do I turn this off? I would have opened a ticket but I thought this information might be helpful to others.

BTW guys, there must be a way to get rid of the spammers here. I have done it - I'm sure you can!

HI,

We can not implement this now, and we did not add this option, please understand, but I think you can refer to the steps, maybe you can add it, thanks.

Step 4, Modify Template to show Chat Status:

The following code to be added:

<!--123 Flash Chat-->
<div class="cModule 123flashchat">
<h3><span>123 Flash Chat</span></h3>
<?php

require_once(JPATH_ROOT . DS . 'components' . DS . 'com_community' . DS . 'helpers' . DS . 'chat.php');

$cfg = getConfig();
if ($cfg->server!=2 && $cfg->full_screen==1)
{
$clientSize = 'fullscreen=1';
}
else
{
$clientSize = 'width=' . $cfg->client_width . 'px,height=' . $cfg->client_height . 'px';
}
$clientSize = "'" . $clientSize . "'";
if ($cfg->chat_status)
{
$status = getStatus();
if($cfg->server != 2)
{
echo ($status['rn'] ? $status['rn'] : '0') . ' <b>rooms</b>, ' . ($status['cn'] ? $status['cn'] : '0') . ' <b>connections</b>, ';
}
echo $status['ln'] . " <b>logins</b>";

//if(isset($rooms))
if ($cfg->room_list && ($cfg->server != 2))
{
$rooms = getRooms();
echo "<br /><br /><b>Rooms:</b><br />";

if(!$rooms)
{
echo "None";
}
else
{
$xa = '';
foreach($rooms as $room)
{
$js = '';
$app =& JFactory::getApplication();
if (!$app->getCfg('sef_suffix'))
{
$url = 'index.php?tmpl=component&option=com_chat&view=cha t&room=' . $room['id'];
$url = "'" . $url . "'";
$open = "'" . '123_flash_chat' . "'";
$js = !($cfg->present_mode) ? '' : ('onclick="window.open(' . $url . ',' . $open . ',' . $clientSize . ');return false;"');
}
echo $xa . '<a href="index.php?option=com_community&view=chat&roo m=' . $room['id'] . '" ' . $js . ">" .$room['name'] ."</a>(" . $room['count'] . ")";
$xa = ";<br />";
}
}
}

//if(isset($users))
if ($cfg->user_list)
{
$users = getUsers();
echo "<br /><br /><b>Users:</b> ";
if(!$users)
{
echo "None";
}
else
{
$xb = '';
foreach($users as $user)
{
echo $xb . $user['name'];
$xb = ', ';
}
}
}
}
if ($cfg->chat_status != 0)
{
echo '<br/>';
}
$ss = '';
$app =& JFactory::getApplication();
if (!$app->getCfg('sef_suffix'))
{
$url = 'index.php?option=com_chat&view=chat&tmpl=componen t';
$url = "'" . $url . "'";
$open = "'" . '123_flash_chat' . "'";

$ss = !($cfg->present_mode) ? '' : ('onclick="window.open(' . $url . ',' . $open . ',' . $clientSize . ');return false;"');
}
echo '<br/><a href="' . CRoute::_('index.php?option=com_community&view=cha t') . '" style="float: left"' . $ss . '><b>Chat Now!</b></a><br/><br/>';
?>
</div>
<!--123 Flash Chat-->

For example:

(1) show chat status in home page:

Open: Admin Panel ->Components->Jom Social ->Templates ->Select using Template

Select File: frontpage.index.php

Find: <?php $this->renderModules( 'js_side_bottom' ); ?>

Before it add the code we provide.

(2) show chat status in profile page:

Open: Admin Panel ->Components->Jom Social ->Templates ->Select using Template

Select File: profile.index.php

Find: <?php echo $friends; ?>

After it add the code we provide.


In Admin Panel ->Components->Jom Social ->Templates ->Select using Template ->frontpage.index.php
or
Admin Panel ->Components->Jom Social ->Templates ->Select using Template ->profile.index.php

find this codes:

if($cfg->server != 2)
{
echo ($status['rn'] ? $status['rn'] : '0') . ' rooms, ' . ($status['cn'] ? $status['cn'] : '0') . ' connections, ';
}
echo $status['ln'] . " logins<dl class='profile-right-info'>

replace it with these codes:

echo "<dl class='profile-right-info'>

Go to admin panel -> Components -> 123flashchat ->chat settings -->
Basic Settings -->Show User List -->no.

Admin, your answers always put a smile on my face

I will have a go at this coming weekend. It is not something that needs to be added, it is something that needs to be removed.

Anyroad, I'll have a go. Merry Xmas to all of the team!
