yes it does work in 1.05 just don't need the admin_common directory
Try to clear cache and reload styles
Also mod need to be installed first to use block

I'm trying to install AJAX Chat so I can pop it into a left hand block, but keep coming up with the following error when using AUTOMod.

includes/function.php

FIND

Code: Select all

'U_RESTORE_PERMISSIONS'   => ($user->data['user_perm_from'] && $auth->acl_get('a_switchperm')) ? append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}ucp.$phpEx", 'mode=restore_perm') : '',

Add After

Code: Select all

//-- mod : AJAX Chat ----------------------------------------------------
      //-- add
      'U_CHAT'                    => append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}chat.$phpEx"),
      'S_SHOUT'               => true,
      //-- fin mod : AJAX Chat ------------------------------------------------

The Find specified by the MOD could not be found

I've checked, and made the necessary changes, but still the same error. Should I just go ahead and force an install, or are there edits to the includes/functions.php file I need to make?

Examine the install xml file and copy the exact search and compare it to your edit or the original code... Has to be a tab/space issue if text appears to be the same?

[CaNNon]

mike said spacing error, try to copy the find with out the leading tabs/spaces.

[Anise76]

Yup, I found the spacing error - still got the same issue, which is why I am completely confuzzled!!

[Mike]

This can happen often... I know I spent a lot of time fixing these type of error... Some times only a space, other two spaces and yet others related to one file being unix and the other being windows (CR/NL carriage return/New Line hidden characters)...

The exact code that should be there is:

Code: Select all

      'U_RESTORE_PERMISSIONS'   => ($user->data['user_perm_from'] && $auth->acl_get('a_switchperm')) ? append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}ucp.$phpEx", 'mode=restore_perm') : '',

Note that the first characters in the line before ('U_RESTORE_PERMISSIONS') appear as spaces (the bbcode changes a single tab to 4 spaces, for for 2 tabs is adds 8 spaces) but it should be 2 tab characters... Also some editors can change tab to spaces so if you edit a file is can mess up the find...

The best thing to do is zip up your functions.php file and attach it... I will check it and send back the correct code... Replace your version with the mine and do the install again...

[Anise76]

Thanks for this - still can't get it working, even with your edited code.

[Mike]

I also need the ajax install xml file...
The ajax chat edit is already there... It should not be... Did you run the install before?

The find line is wrong... I have attached my version and removed the ajax chat edit as it should not be there if the mod did not install..
If you made any edits manually will should remove them before running automod on the mod again...

[Anise76]

Sorry, forgot to throw the XML in there as well!

Here it is.

[Mike]

Try this one...
