In the 2.3 module, there is a setting called "Attach Itemid".

If you set it to "Yes", it changes ALL the modules chat links to use the itemid of whatever page the user is currently on.

But if you set it to "Use Itemid option defined below", it only effects the chat icon link next to the username and the username link if you have it set to go to chat.

It does NOT have any effect on the "Join chat" link at the bottom-center of the module.

I'm betting most people either don't use this option or just don't notice that it doesn't work quite right.

Anybody got a fix for this obvious bug?

Also, the Chat Icon and CB Icon Link/No Link choices have no effect either. The links are always clickable.

Any other bugs I need to know about?

You are correct, here is the fix:

Edit dynamic.blastchatc.php file, find row 447:

Code:

$chlink .= bc_getItemid($bc_params, $Itemid);

to attach defined "Chat Itemid", replace it with:

Code:

$chlink .= bc_getItemid($bc_params, $Itemid, 0);

or to attach defined "Profile Itemid", replace it with:

Code:

$chlink .= bc_getItemid($bc_params, $Itemid, 1);

or you can hardcode by replaceing mentioned line with

Code:

$chlink .= "&Itemid=XXX";

where XXX is desired value of Itemid attached

So, if it's a known bug, why isn't there a patch? Or did I just miss it?

you are first to report this "bug", we will integrate this fix into next release

Oh, I see. I didn't realize I was onto something new. I didn't mean to sound snippy. Very good then.

Thanks a lot for the work around. It did the trick. Do you think the update will correct the functionality in the module's configuration?
