Oh I will, you can beleive that. I accidentally hit the install for the new chat when I was trying to do something else. So if there is a reference for 3, then this is why.
But I see a chatbox_front.php in the root folder. I am checking to see which version this is in now. (Done - it's in this new version)
Ok, me is back and here's my error for version 3:
| Code:
|
FIND FAILED: In file [index.php] could not find:
$template->assign_vars(array(
'TOTAL_POSTS' => sprintf($l_total_post_s, $total_posts),
'TOTAL_USERS' => sprintf($l_total_user_s, $total_users),
'NEWEST_USER' => sprintf($lang['Newest_user'], '<a href="' . append_sid("profile.$phpEx?mode=viewprofile&" . POST_USERS_URL . "=$newest_uid") . '">', $newest_user, '</a>'),
MOD script line #112

Once again, this is an example where the MOD author included far too much information in the FIND command, making it likely to fail on more boards than not...
Ok, try this:
OPEN
ChatBox Mod Install.txt
FIND
| Code:
|
#
#-----[ FIND ]---------------------------------------------
#
$template->assign_vars(array(
'TOTAL_POSTS' => sprintf($l_total_post_s, $total_posts),
'TOTAL_USERS' => sprintf($l_total_user_s, $total_users),
'NEWEST_USER' => sprintf($lang['Newest_user'], '<a href="' . append_sid("profile.$phpEx?mode=viewprofile&" . POST_USERS_URL . "=$newest_uid") . '">', $newest_user, '</a>'),
|
REPLACE WITH
| Code:
|
#
#-----[ FIND ]---------------------------------------------
#
$template->assign_vars(array(
'TOTAL_POSTS'

Save, upload, and try again using EM...

Ok, I am reading the install.txt and I found what seems to be a typing error:
| Quote:
|
|
copy support_files/cht_login.php to phpbb/chatbox_login.php
|
Shouldn't it read cht_login.php to phpbb/cht_login.php or even chatbox_login.php to phpbb/chatbox_login.php ?
Please explain why of no NR. Thank youuu!

Based only on the COPY command, it is difficult to determine whether this is a problem or not. If you look in the support_files folder, there is a file named cht_login.php, so EM would be able to find the file and copy it into the new name phpbb/chatbox_login.php, which is probably a mistake. I imagine that the MOD author intended to copy the files to the root of the phpBB forum folder. So next to determine whether the new filename is correct, I ran a search to see if the MOD author ever defined it in any of the other files, which he didn't. Strangely, he didn't define cht_login.php either. So it appears that the file is never used...
I would correct the COPY commands though by removing phpbb/ from the destination path. Also, I would add the missing wildcard values in the destinations too. The copies won't work without them...
OPEN

This whole section is sure to fail too:

You might as well fix these too while you're at it:
OPEN

$meta = '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3;url=' . append_sid("viewtopic.$phpEx?" . POST_POST_URL . "=" . $post_id) . '#' . $post_id . '">';
$message = $lang['Stored'] . '<br /><br />' . sprintf($lang['Click_view_message'], '<a href="' . append_sid("viewtopic.$phpEx?" . POST_POST_URL . "=" . $post_id) . '#' . $post_id . '">', '</a>') . '<br /><br />' . sprintf($lang['Click_return_forum'], '<a href="' . append_sid("viewforum.$phpEx?" . POST_FORUM_URL . "=$forum_id") . '">', '</a>');
return false;
}
//

It installed fine NR after your heavy tweaking. I can see I am going to be very busy "tweaking' it to my site.  Plus I'll check on the MOD forum and see what he's offering for the "donationware" support.
'add chatbox to overall header' is not being recognized by EM. I'll hand code that tmorrow. Looks painless. 
Abdulbasit - this MIGHT be the one... NOW  |

You should be able to modify the add chatbox to overall header MOD so that EM can install it...

So why not restore your backups and install it using EM? I can fix the MOD script so that EM will recognize it...

| While you fix the MOD script so that it is EMC, I will upload the original files. |
