DKC,

x7Chat version three will be coming out soon and it's suppose to be able to integrate with phpbb3, so if it does would it then integrate with mkportal too?

Hello pre-

Normally if a forum add-on works with the forum then it will work when the forum is integrerated into MKPortal. Sometimes there is a minor modification or two needed but usually it just works as-is.

DKC,

Regarding x7Chat it has a private message in it's chat but usernames that have a space between names cannot use the private message would you be able to tell me how I might modified it that it would?

I don't know this script but why does the space cause problems? Is there an error message or what happens when a user with a space in their username tries to use the x7Chat PM?

When you click on the private message in the chat room another window is suppose to open up. It works when i'm in the chat as admin, my username for my regular account is setup Fisrt_Last name and it works, but any classmate who has register on my site whose username is not all connected together it doesn't work.

Also when you register on x7Chat site you have to register with the username all as one word. I had before installing it on my sites, setup a stand alone not integrated into the sites yet and when I register a couple of usernames for testing I set them up as one continueous name without a break. The window opened for the other classmates then.

So i'm thinking it is the username that is causing it.

Well you could replace the spaces with underscores or remove spaces altogether.

You could do something like this...

$username = str_replace(" ", "_", $username);

or

$username = str_replace(" ", "", $username);

Of course these are only examples. I don't know what variables are used in the chat module.

How? It would be nice to know the solution to the issue since many people will find this topic through a search and I know by experience that it is always disappointing to find a topic addressing your issue with no solution posted.

The webmaster for x7Chat sent me the solution for it to work with phpbb. It was similar to what you had mentioned:

Private Chat for x7Chat for username to work properly:

Hi,
Try this: in sources/frame.php find:
'Pm'+userInfo['username']

And replace it with:
'Pm'+userInfo['username'].replace(" ","_")
