purechat--beta-'s Introduction

PureChat is licensed under the GNU GPL v3. You are free to fork the code and contrubute as you see fit. However, should you choose to send us a pull request, there is no gurentee that we will add it into the final install, as it may not fit the end goals of the software.

To get started, create a database for your PC install. Then open ~/Includes/db_info.php and edit the information therein. Next, open the SQL file, select your PC database in PHPMyAdmin, open a query window and copy the paste the contents of the SQL file into it.

Open the PC in a browser, and if there are no errors, you did it right!

Thanks for looking,

purechat--beta-'s Issues

Automatic Status Change

If you change your status from the list, it should automatically update your status rather than inputting that command to the input and having to click "Send".

However you still should be able to type a message to update your status.

Remove BBC Formatting & Add Basic Formatting

Remove the advanced BBC formatting for text...which is overkill for a chat in my opinion (and pretty buggy I imagine) and then add basic text formatting for bold and italic text, leave auto-linking for URLs and URL shortening, and also formatting vulgar language.

Copyright Update

Avatar Column in Users

Right now, the avatar column in the pc_users table takes a direct URL. Shouldn't we just have this be the avatar hash that is on the end of the URL? That way if the installation directory changes, or the attachments directory, the URL isn't invalid anymore. I don't really like storing static paths in the database...just not had good experiences with them.

In the future "avatar_type" may be necessary to allow for avatars to be a direct URL rather than a file upload, but that's the only case I can see needing a direct URL in the avatar column.

Styling strays from the main theme.
Profile fields have to be modified individually.
Avatar handling does not always function
Cannot add an avatar from a URL.

Membergroups

The ability to add, modify and remove membergroups needs to be renovated to use the new Admin Object that Scotty had written.

Permissions are also directly embedded with membergroups.

BBC Regex

Some of the regex for parsing BBC is broken, such as putting a URL in the quote BBC.
