smf user problem

[smitchell]

since upgrading to the latest Version
all my users are showing as guests
it used to show their logged in user names so we knew who was who

what have i done wrong please?

thanks steve

[smitchell]

i have the guests can chat ticked in the general settings
but if i un-tick it it only shows the 'user must log-in before they can chat' sign

it seems to not be picking up the user list for some reason????

[smitchell]

i'm wondering if i set it up wrong as on the last screen the database filled in it's own settings
and it just said smf_

but i have no idea how to change it????

[smitchell]

i tried to re-install everything again and that last database setting was correct as it was the only setting it allowed me to use

[smitchell]

checked the debug file and got this

User ID: 1
You are being registered as logged in. If you are not logged in, please check the functions_receive.php file to make sure the getUserID function is correct.


Warning: mysql_error() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/steve/public_html/forum/fbchat/debug.php on line 47
There was an error with your getFriendsList function. Please check your includes/functions_receive.php file and fix your getFriendsList function so that it is receiveing your online friends correctly. mySQL Error:

User ID is not banned.

You are using an ArrowChat compatible browser.

You have a functions_receive.php file.


so this is the functions_receive file

it must be registering that the users are on the system tho because i can edit them in the user settings.

but i did add a couple as admin and then look and the only part of the chat bar they could see was the hide button?

very strange and annoying as this has always worked well and never had any problems since i installed it.
why do we do these upgrades lol :~
