8WayRun.Com - Addonchat Extension

[admin]

This is a simple mod I created to not only fill in the gaps of features in the official addonchat product for vBulletin, but also add a few features which are liked on my forum. You will need to make a few changes to some of the templates for Addonchat. I have asked AddonInteractive to make a few fixes in their files to support a mod like this; so hopefully less edits will be needed in the future.

Features:

• Adds a "Who's Chatting" list ABOVE the forum, instead of in the WGO area. Who's Chatting area will now also sort by usernames, and give markup based on display usergroups.
• Adds a "most chatters at one time" datastore; this is the same datastore used by Paul's Flashchat Integration script; so if you switch from Flashchat to Addonchat, or vice versa, you will retain this record.
• Adds support for Streaming video and chats from within the embed page. (Only works with the embedded page, not the popup page; I have disabled the popup page on my forum in order to promote the use of this new feature.) With this, users can chat in your chatroom, while also viewing flash based streaming video (uStream, JustinTV, etc). Stream data is handled through AJAX; so if you change the stream location, users will not be forced to leave the chatroom in order to get the new location, they only need to hit the "Update" button.

Demos:

• Who's Chatting: http://www.8wayrun.com/forum.php
• Streaming Video: http://www.8wayrun.com/addonchat.php (click the "Show Stream Video and Chat" button)

Installation:

• Make sure the Official Addonchat Product has already been installed.
• Upload all files in the included ZIP file to their respective directories.
• Install this product using the XML file within the included ZIP file.
• Setup your settings in "Stream Settings" under AddonChat in AdminCP.
• Replace the contents of the template "addonchat_embed" with this:

<table class="tborder" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="margin-top: 10px;">
