First, I would like to say that I absolutely love this template. Its what I have been seeking for a while.

I have just installed this template and was setting everything up. After I installed CometChat I noticed that it was showing up behind the main body. I can see it show up in the footer, but it isn’t correct. I have tried adding the CometChat code to the header and footer, neither seems to overcome what I think is an z-index issue (don’t quote me on the z-index). Any help would be great! Thanks for the time! 😀

I should add that I am using firefox 3.6.8 and I have tired looking at it with IE8 and don’t see the chat bar at all. Opera 10.61 seems to be showing the same as firefox.

An example of this can be seen at http://www.nuvul.com

Yes, that was my first thought. I first changed z-index to 100000 then to 1000000 within the css files, this was done to all the z-index vaules for cometchat in both the.css and rtl.css. I have tried also using Firebug in Firefox to see if its something in the css that I can disable or such, and I haven’t come across anything affecting it. I am not really sure what is causing it, and afraid it could be something else.

I changed to a different chat client and it seems to be working correctly.
Thanks!

Sorry but at cometchat or JBolo they weren’t able to help you?

Dont have cometchat, and dosnt work for anyone here so no point trying.

Jbolo works fine in any template except this, didnt try support as just tested, but most of the issues here are because of the template.

hi,

i have jbolo and cometchat and 123flashchat (yes i know alot).

jbolo + cometchat i didnt get them really on work on this template.

123flashchat has only a problem, that i cant choose kunena-colours anymore (everything else ok).
with other templates it works fine (from JA)

123flashchat is very expensive. I rather change template than buy that 🙂

if you have to insert code for one chat, try “header.php” in /blocks/

that works for javascript code 123webmessenger.

maybe it helps some ppl.

I actually changed to arrowchat and had to modify the z-index on #arrowchat_base to get it to work for me. But that was before the update, and I ended up switching templates because of other issues that I did not like. There is so much on this template I just moved to a simpler template.

Almost no component or module works propely on this template, dont know css so i am stuck with an unfinished website….

Got about 6 threads open, and no real answers from mods, but they answer realy fast when got critics…

I might move to a difrent template too, to bad the 7 days money back are gone 🙂

Try this, I use CometChat on my site. Also, I’m currently using JA Social with 30+ extensions with only one issue and the vendor is working on that now.

This works when the user logs in it will show the chat bar, when user logs out bar goes away.

Modify:
plugins/system/jat3/base-themes/default/blocks/head.php

top of head.php
<script src=”http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js”></script>
<script>jqcc=jQuery.noConflict(true);</script>

bottom of head.php
<?php
$my =& JFactory::getUser();
if (!empty($my->id)) {
?>
<!– CometChat Footer Code Start –>
<link type=”text/css” rel=”stylesheet” media=”all” href=”/cometchat/cometchatcss.php” charset=”utf-8″ />
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”/cometchat/cometchatjs.php” charset=”utf-8″></script>
<!– CometChat Footer Code End –>
<?php
}
?>

Note: This CometChat config is for JomSocial integration

Hope it helps
