Mod phpfreechat

This Mod plugin displays a chat (using phpfreechat) in a wiki page.

phpFreeChat is a free, simple to install, fast, customizable and multi languages chat that uses a simple filesystem for message and nickname storage. It uses AJAX to smoothly refresh (no flicker) and display the chat zone and the nickname zone. It supports multi-rooms (/join), private messages, moderation (/kick, /ban), customized themes based on CSS and plugins systems that allows you to write your own storage routines (ex: Mysql, IRC backends …), and you own chat commands !

Usage

To display a module in a wiki page, use the syntax:

{PHPFREECHAT(title=title, channel=name)}{PHPFREECHAT}

To install

Checkout the Mods section.

• Additionally, and if it's not you available elsewhere, you can download the files from svn directly:
  • https://sourceforge.net/p/tikiwiki/code/HEAD/tree/mods/trunk/wiki-plugins/phpfreechat/
  • https://sourceforge.net/p/tikiwiki/code/HEAD/tree/mods/trunk/lib/phpfreechat/
• Copy the file tiki-phpfreechat_ajax.php from the lib/phpfreechat folder and paste it to the root of Tikiwiki.
• Take all the content that is in the first thing you downloaded from svn (http://tikiwiki.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tikiwiki/mods/trunk/wiki-plugins/phpfreechat/) and put everything in the wiki-plugins/phpfreechat folder.
• In your Tiki, create a new Wiki page with the title "chat" (per example) and insert this content :
  Copy to clipboard

  {PHPFREECHAT(title=title, channel=name)}{PHPFREECHAT}

• In the file lib/setup/js_detect.php, start by finding these lines:
  Copy to clipboard

  // NB replace "normal" speeds with int to workaround issue with jQuery 1.4.2
  $headerlib->add_js($js, 100);

• After this section, add these lines:
  Copy to clipboard

  $jsPrototype = 'if (Prototype) jQuery.noConflict();';
  $headerlib->add_js($jsPrototype, 101);

  • N.B.: This procedure has been tested on a Tiki 6.0-6.1. Perhaps this line of code is going to be added in next versions.
  • G.I.: In tiki version 9.1, the file js_detect.php has been renamed to javascript.php and portion of the code has changed. I have yet to test where to put the aforementioned lines of code.
