I tried with the code I know from another forum

<span id="hidden_content" style="display: none;">Code for Chat Box here</span>

But then it dissapears all together even when I'm logged in. Is there another code that can be used on vforums? Or am I doing something wrong.

First of all what chat box is it?

That is rather simple:

Global (If you want it to show on every page) or Main (if you only want it to show on the main page) Header:

Code:

Select All

 

<script type="text/javascript"> 
if(vf_username != "guest"){
get('chatbox','id').style.display = '';
} 
</script>

<script type="text/javascript"> {BR}if(vf_username != "guest"){ {BR}get('chatbox','id').style.display = ''; {BR}} {BR}</script>

 

Put this in the header/footer where ever you want it to appear:

Code:

Select All

 

<div id="chatbox" style="display:none">
*Chat Box Code here*
</div>

<div id="chatbox" style="display:none"> {BR}*Chat Box Code here* {BR}</div>

 

Just got to edit where it says *Chat Box Code here* with the code for your chat box.


This will go a check to make sure the user is actually logged in. There is NO restriction based on the type of chatbox it is outside of their own ToS

Edit: Make sure you place the first part at the very bottom of your footer.

Broken: I have updated your code to work

Hmm ok, though I don't see why it wouldn't of worked before since i've done it that way for codes several times

get('chatbox','id').innerHTML;

Would do nothing, you haven't told it what to do with the innerHTML

Thats interesting because I've bene using it in - http://www.divineshadowsonline.com/private/forum/regmodv1.js which has a coding base off of the "Extra Registration Page" code, for page creation, that you wrote And the code works great I just mimicked the system and added the login check but I could of missed something, just going off of what i've seen and done in the past my js sucks, i'll stick to PHP and .NET languages XD

Thanks a million. It helped:)

Where exactly? I don't see the same syntax in your code.

The fixed code is just like the code I have been using alot on one of my forums
