[1.4.1] mChat Sticky Footer

[kasimi]

In ext/kasimi/mchatstickyfooter/event/listener.php find the display_mchat() function and at the end of it, add this:

Code: Select all

- This code is only accessible to donors -

Hi, thank you for extension, but this prevents me from using it on my board:

Having 3 issues:

1. It conflicts with QuickReply Reloaded: after sticky footer installation all message actions (like quoting or nickname ref) go to mchat window instead of main one.
2. It have "show mchat on all pages" option in ACP, but this option is missed in UCP. So users who don't like chat can't switch it off and it's very annoying.
3. it's good to have option to disable mchat sticky popup on mobile browsers because it works slow enough + it looks almost the same as mchat page. So better to show collapsed view at the bootom, but when vistior click it - redirect to mchat page.

Is there any thoughts regarding this? Thanks.

Thanks for your feedback.

• Unfortunately this is a limitation of prosilver and can't be fixed. Also reported here: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=3&start=10#p390 and here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=256&p=1675
• You need to give your users the permission to edit this setting, have a look at the mChat in UCP user permission tab in the ACP.
• That's a good idea, I'll look into it!

Hi. thanks, but disabling bbcodes and smiles in mchat not helps (at least with quickreply enabled): when user click "smile" or "quote" on main form it continue insert it to mchat input field anyway. So I have modified phpbb code a little (works well with standard full reply form as well):

in editor.js:

Code: Select all

- This code is only accessible to donors -

may be it's possible to do this without core code modification? Not sure, but this one works for my forum.

btw, what about adding some way to see that chat have "new unread messages" ? Actual for messages added when popup is in collapsed state.

Create a new file ext/dmzx/mchat/styles/all/template/event/overall_footer_body_after.html and add this code:

Code: Select all

No core edits required. Only works with core phpBB, mChat and QuickReply Reloaded. If you know any other extension that should be supported, let me know.

The color palette is still broken. Maybe you know a solution?

Your method have two additional problems:

1. "quote" button located in each post header does not work
2. quickreply reloaded have a "ref" link below avatar. This link not works too.

Really, it's the same problem: because user click outside any form.

Getting mChat's quote button and other BBCode buttons on each message to work was easy.

QuickReply's "ref" link isn't working for me, even if the mChat Sticky Footer add-on is disabled. Any idea how to fix this? Edit: I was running an outdated version of QR Reloaded, it works now.

Try this updated piece of code:

Code: Select all

Still not works for me when this quote button pressed:
