Have you successfully placed the code in a forum (using FORUMDISPLAY template)? If yes, then you could wrap a conditional such as:

<if condition="$foruminfo[forumid] == X">

</if>

Where "x" is replace it with the forum ID. See if that helps.

Ahh...You're using the Ajax version. I haven't installed it so I wouldn't know. You may want to request it at that specific thread.

I've briefly played with Chatbox Lite (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=92537&highlight=chatbox), though it's not currently installed on my board. The script is very light and straightforward.

I forgot to add an <else /> there. I've tested this on IE and Firefox:

In FORUMDISPLAY template under $navbar:



<if condition="$foruminfo[forumid] == x">

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="thead" colspan="2">
<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_chatboxlite')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_chatboxlite" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_chatboxlite].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
<a href="#" onclick="return openChatboxLite()">$vbphrase[chatboxlite_chatbox]</a>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_chatboxlite" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_forumhome_chatboxlite]">
<tr>
<td class="alt1" width="100%" colspan="2"><div class="smallfont" align="center"><iframe src="chatbox_lite.php?nofocus=1" width="100%" style="border: 0px"></iframe></div></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

<else />
</if>



Where "x" is replace with ForumID.

The $navbar is a template call that's inside the FORUMDISPLAY template. Please give me the template and code bit you've implemented.

i've used the same code you wrote, but its located in the fourmhome template instead of the nav. i followed the instructions that were given in the install.

fourmhome template--->forumhome and thats were that above script you told me to put around is located.

Ahh...OK. Let's start over. There's a confusion between "navbar" (template) and "$navbar".

In Forum Display Templates --> FORUMDISPLAY template look for:

<body>
$header
$navbar

And under "$navbar" place the code I posted above. Change "x" to the ForumID you want the Chatbox displayed.
