Halachos for this year erev shabbos chanukah based in part on Rabbi Felder's sefer Shiurei Halacha.
-One who is traveling should give themselves extra time for arrival in order to daven mincha and light chanuka candles
-One should light the Ner Chanuka before the Ner shabbos but it should be done not less then within a half hour to shkia or 5 to 10 minutes prior to licht benching.
-The Mishna Berura writes its preferable to daven Mincha before one lights ner Chanukah on Erev Shabbos since it would be a תרתי דסתרי, meaning if one considers it to be night after the plag how can you go and daven mincha afterwards. However of one can not do so he may daven after lighting the menorah especially if it means davening with a minyan as oppose to davening before b'yechidos.
-The lights must be capable of burning until 30 minutes after nightfall they should be lit for an hour and forty five minutes. Therefore, one must be careful on erev Shabbos to use sufficient oil or long candles that can burn until this time.
-Children should also use long shabbos candles so their menorah will burn longer.
-A wife can light shabbos candles after her husband lit the menorah and does not have to wait for everyone else to finish lighting
-we insert על הניסים in Benching and shmona esrei If it is mistakenly omitted, it is not repeated
-According to the mishna Berura we do not give or receive chanuka gifts on shabbos unless its needed -for shabbos
-On Motzei shabbos there are various minhagim if one lights the menorah before or after havdalah, The minhag haolam is to make havdala first bnei Torah should wait until 72 minutes to light. The hadlaka in shul is done before havdalah.
