Possible bugs:
- when you attempt ajax edit, (IE) shows page error (object required) but everything still works fine.
- when /team is enabled but "use two channels" is disabled, object errors appear (IE)
- when in team channel, /me shows message in main channel.

Ideas:
- when you are in the team channel, maybe a button that shows there's activity in main channel?
- per channel (normal/team) choose if to allow img, bbcode etc
- show archive chronologically (from oldest to newest chatline), same with download txt function.
- add option to add more channels like (team) (main, spam, offtopic, trivia bot)?

A feature request:
At my forum the team channel is used to spam and I use a trivia bot on it. I would like to request a feature that disables the chatlines in the team channel from being logged or counted to the top5 for example. Is that possible?

1 :
I am sorry but this might not be a problem on the chatbox side, I have tested it with ie6 and ie7 an never experienced such problem.

Which browser version do you have ?

Do you have any clues to help me tell you where it should come from ?

2 :
No this is not a bug and this will never be like that as in my opinion the most used channel is the general one so user shall stay in it and they only go in the team one to put a shout or to view new shouts after having seen the new shouts available icon.

3:
Any informations on that ? I don't experience that :(

4:
Only one command can work in a shout at a time, when you shout in the team channel, the chat is registered in the database with /team added to it to specifies that it's a team message.

5:
In the top 5, users that don't have access to this channel won't see the same top 5 as others.
Anyway, yes I could add an option so that team message shall not be taken into account, I add it to the todo list.

1) I found out, when AJAX editing a chatline and hit enter the error appears. When you edit and don't hit enter, there's no error (IE7).
2) I'm using your chatbox for two purposes, main/spam channel. I figured it would be a nice addition :). There are over 30 users actively chatting, so I renamed the team channel to spam channel.
3) Seems related to #1. I'm sorry for this.
4) Ok.
5) That would be wonderfull.

Btw. I also suggested some ideas, if you could comment I'd appreciate it vbDev. I love your product more and more each minute that passes :D.

I hope that we can define the number of messages in the full pagemode separately. Not just the same as it in the nomal mode.

1: as I told in the previous message I won't do that
2: I could add an option to set the order
3: for me, channels aren't exactly channels, they are more interpreted as commands which can be shown either in the main channel only or either in separate channels. But however, I could think in next versions (not for the next immediate one) of a possibility to add personnal commands which could be recognized as channels :)

5) That would be wonderfull.

1: I have tried that on my forum with IE7 and there were no error, could you give me the url of your forum so that I could learn more ?
2: Yes but as I told I won't, it would add sql queries and sql queries and I don't want my chatbox to become a sql query box :D
3: Same as for 1, your url could be useful too me :)

I hope that we can define the number of messages in the full pagemode separately. Not just the same as it in the nomal mode.

Yes I could do that to, will put it in the todo list when I get back from my bank :)

Im having quite a few problems with this...

The first is that when i press the archive link at the top i get the following error message...
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_top_10() in /home/hhgsnet/public_html/mgc_chatbox.php on line 520

Also the WOL feature doesnt work and the /announce feature also doesnt work when i try to do both of them nothing happens

I think you didn't update all files coz get_top_10 is the oldest name of one my function and is no more in it the new version.

IMO this is the reason for those problems :)

It looked like from the screenshot that it's possible to have a transcript of each chat, correct? (I saw the Archives link).

Also, is there a way to suppress the date and timestamp from appearing on every line send?

Thanks!

For the transcript, you mean save in file format on your computer (if yes, yes it's possible) ?

Yes you can disable both time and date through the options.

For those who are experiencing javascript problems with double channel mode not activated, could you try the following fix :

1 : Open clientscript/mgc_chatbox.js.
2 : Find in the aff_canal function if(can_team)
3 : Replace it by if(can_team && chatbox_mode)

Considering my timetable and the 1.4 version development, I consider as stable and ready for release.

I'll update english translation tomorrow (as I always work on the french version) and then will launch translations in other languages.

So user that proposed for translation be ready ;)

This will certainly lead to a release at the start of the week.

Chatbox working perfectly, apart from one strange problem.

I have a user who cannot see it. She is a Registered User and the usergroup does have permission. Everyone else in the same usergroup can view the chatbox.

I gave her the url for the full page chatbox and she can view that, but she still can't view the normal chatbox on any of the forum pages.

I installed the mod "Admin can login as user". When I login as this member... it is true... the chatbox is not visible.

I'm stumped... any ideas?

Hum the fact that she can view the chabox but not the full page one is very strange.

Does she have the options in the user cp ? (if no then it's a known bug that might have messed up with that and this'll be corrected in the new version :))

I have to test it but as I don't have ibproarcade install I'll do that once I have time.

Actually not but maybe you could achived that by using the display chatbox when having problems on some styles.

This could help you add the $chatbox_forumhome just where you want it to be shown in the what's going on.

It's the other way around. She has no chatbox at the top of forum home, but she can view the full page version by typing in the url. I can reproduce her problem by logging into her account.

I'm not sure what options you are talking about in the user cp? No one has any chatbox options in the user cp as far as I can see.

I was thinking about telling her to create a new account where it should work (as no one else has a problem), and then using the merge user function to move all her old posts over to her new account. But that would be a last resort :D

Oh, no, smilie is ok, the problem is that the first line where the date and username are, is not aligned with the chat's messages.

Checked alt classes, but they don't have padding or margin asigned. :eek:
In the end I found one template has a "top" alignement, that's why i was having this problem... haven't checked the latest version... :p

This is going to seem like a dumb question but I'm very new to this stuff. In the instructions it says: In the additional CSS, add : /** DEBUT MGC CHATBOX **/
.mgc_cb_date {
color : #555555;
}

.mgc_cb_me {
color : #FF0000;
}
/** FIN MGC CHATBOX **/


What additional CSS am I looking for?

Then if noone is having the option in the usercp, it means that you certainly have not done the modification in the modifyoptions template which is necessary. If you don't do it, then if the user changes his option he will not see the chatbox anymore (as the option to show the chatbox will not be present and so supposed to be equal to 0 by php).

Due to an actual bug in my code, even if you modify now the modifyoptions template, your user won't be able to revert state of the show chatbox option (which will be corrected in the upcoming very soon 1.4).

Anyway this can be corrected by modyfing the mgc_cb_params field of the user table in the database and ensuring that the 1 in bold case in the following value is equal to 1 in the value of your user field:


a:7:{s:13:"mgc_cb_police";s:1:"0";s:13:"mgc_cb_taille";i:0;s:14:"mgc_cb_couleur";b:0;s:8:"mgc_cb_b";i:0;s:8:"mgc_cb_u";i:0;s:8:"mgc_cb_i";i:0;s:11:"mgc_cb_show";i:1;}

If you go in the style manager in your admincp, select the Main CSS option in the dropdown list of your style.

Then go to the bottom of the page, you'll see a field named Additionnal CSS definitions, this is where you have to put that bit of code :)

Actually no there are no way to fix this in the way it is.

They can however choose default colors, fonts and else through their user cp if you have allowed them and if you have modified the modify_options template as requested in the installation instructions (becareful you could have problems if not modified).

Does that fits to you ?

Heya! Very nice release! I love this box!

One problem atm, we had this problem before but I have no idea how the other shoutbox maker had resolved it, but the shoutbox does not work on IE7, it gives the error:
Could not complete the operation due to error: c00ce56e

Our site is in UTF-8, and I remember it having to do something with it before.

Firefox handles it perfect.

I also would like to ask if and how it is possible to also display seconds next to hours:minutes at the chat messages.
Thank you kindly!

Hi, thanks for the hack, but I'm wondering if I could get your help. I updated to the latest version tonight, and now for some reason my quick reply does not work. I get this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v45/hoekone/error2.jpg

It still posts, but it looks like it doesn't.

I'm also getting lots of emails about this error:

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.7:

Referrer : http://domain.com/index.phpI've tried disabling the hack, all hooks, going back to 1.3, and even re-uploading all vbulletin php files, but it didn't help.

Please help me solve this problem. I'm quite sure it was caused by this update as I have not made any other changes to my site in recent times.


Oh, BTW... my javascript seems to be broken in threads for some reason. I cannot rep people or edit posts without a page reload.

The column 'touserid' is new to version 1.4. Did you import the new 1.4 product? and make sure you select 'overwrite' when importing.

Yes, I did import the new product with the overwrite option set to yes. I did it twice just to make sure.

edit: Actually, all of those error emails that I got were all within a few minutes. I guess that must have been during the time after I uploaded the files but before I imported the new product. Still, my quick reply is broken for some reason.

Heya! Very nice release! I love this box!

One problem atm, we had this problem before but I have no idea how the other shoutbox maker had resolved it, but the shoutbox does not work on IE7, it gives the error:
Could not complete the operation due to error: c00ce56e

Our site is in UTF-8, and I remember it having to do something with it before.

Firefox handles it perfect.

I also would like to ask if and how it is possible to also display seconds next to hours:minutes at the chat messages.
Thank you kindly!

Hum it works perfectly for me on IE7.

Regarding utf8, have you tried using the accent problem solution to resolve it ? (by changing the $chatbox_utf8 var to 1 in the functions_mgc_cb.php file)

Try UNINSTALLING Quick Reply and REINSTALLING. if that doesnt manage then im quite not sure, and his product has indeed damaged your forum. But don't hold him liable, its not his fault, he can not forsee every bug in this product

Pottsy
07-25-2007, 05:43 AM
I assume you mean "disable" and then "enable" quick reply in vbulletin options? When I refer to Quick Reply I mean the standard vbulletin quick reply, not a mod I can uninstall.

The only trace of MGC I have left is in the language file - I'm not sure how to reinstall a fresh copy of the original language. When I install it, it just overwrites existing entries and leaves the additional MGC entries behind.

I'm not holding vbdev liable, just looking for his help to fix my forum, because he is most likely to know what happened in the 1.4 upgrade that cause my forum (and other people's too) to break.

VBDev

All your problems come from the language error.

Um... I overwrited the original vBulletin language file... is it still on my server somewhere?

As a matter of fact, as vbulletin language file is default, you should try to overwrite the english one by the master which is in the install folder.

However I am not 100% sure of that so you might ask jelsoft team first to be sure. This would be a precaution.

It could have messed up all ajax functionnalities I think.

I think this a problem of encoding type I put in my language file.

You are correct though. The solution is to create a new language. No need to update from the /install file, as it is already populated. Make this new language selectable, and the default, and all is fixed...

There are no blinking on the PM channel.

As I already told you for the PM channel, you can't just send the message without entering again the pm command as you might pm anyone you want.

To answer a private shout, even in the pm channel, you have to enter the command again before your text, this is why I have added the pen to easier command entering.

@VBDev; Thanks for your insight. I have resolved it by setting the correct charset in the Language Manager of vBulletin, this field was empty, it's now filled with utf-8, and the error is gone.

Another question:
I have the shoutbox on all pages and when I go to my who's online page, I can see that everyone is inside the "MGC Chatbox" instead of the page they are really on, what they are doing etc etc (default who's online functionality)... This has always been a problem at every chat/shoutbox I came passed.
EWT Chatbox has resolved this by messing with the session management etc, I don't know the details though. Is it possible to have an option in the future that can enable such functionality?

Could you ckeck in your database if you have the touserid field in the mgc_chatbox field ?

I was speaking of chatbox version, the product and files are the one from the 1.4 that's right ?

For that feature, my anwser will be no sorry, this would complicate the chatbox too much and it would become a chat which is what I don't want !

I have the shoutbox on all pages and when I go to my who's online page, I can see that everyone is inside the "MGC Chatbox" instead of the page they are really on, what they are doing etc etc (default who's online functionality)... This has always been a problem at every chat/shoutbox I came passed.
EWT Chatbox has resolved this by messing with the session management etc, I don't know the details though. Is it possible to have an option in the future that can enable such functionality?

ok :)

As a matter of fact, chatbox ajax calls makes the session table to be updated this is the reason why user are shown as being in chatbox.

I unfortunately don't know a lot about vbulletin session so I can't promise you anything on that part :)

What problem do you have in full page view ?
None now! I messed up with my file uploads and missed one.
Full page view working fine again.

So the only issue I have left is that Quick Reply situation.
I've read through all the posts this morning, and saw that there seems to be a temporary solution via a new language.

Can someone walk me through the steps?
Otherwise, I'll wait for your fix tonight VBDev.

The language file revisions also caused the polls to display extremely long graphs (far beyond screen width - massive scrolling), as percentages were displayed in thousands. I created the new language and this seems to have fixed everything that I was aware to be in error. I chose to name this new language "English" in lieu of "English (US)". Note that you do not have to upload any files. You simply go to Language Manager, click the Add New Language Button, type a new name and save. You then need to edit the new language and set Is Default Language to "Yes", and subsequently edit the original language file to set Allow User Selection to "No".

However, while making this fix I noticed that there were three default fields in the new language which were pre-filled on the new language yet blank on the original "English (US)" language settings. Could this be a simple fix of entering these values back into the original language settings? See these below:
HTML Character Set = ISO-8859-1
Number Formatting = .
Thousands Separator = ,
I changed these settings to match in the original "English (US)" language file and it seems to have fixed my poll problem even when I set the original to default. I assume the missing period from the number formatting was translating 50% to 5000%. Try this out prior to creating a new language and see if it addresses all havoc and woe.

I would like to voice my support of VBDev. This is a great mod and the attention to detail and support has been outstanding. I have full confidence in VBDev to resolve the conflict and continue the great work!

Make sure your original language file is still on your server in the install folder (see here (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1076769&postcount=2)).

Then go to Language Manager, and add a new language. Press save and it will fill it up with all the standard phrases. In "Settings" for this new language, make it selectable and make it the default.

All will be fixed, except that the chatbox will be in French!

I am sorry but I don't want to. I am french and I prefer coding in french.

I understand that you would prefer me to code in english as it's your language.

Anyway I don't understand why you say it would be safer ? Okay problems won't be on the english language but they would be on the french one and other languages. I could of course understand that you would prefer that :D

I could of course code in english, that's not a problem for me, at work I do everything in english as I'm in a big company. But at home coding in french is relaxing my mind ;)

vbDev,

That's better! :) :)

All works here, with one tiny exception for me.... (and it's our old favourite)...

If a user is posting using the page /mgc_chatbox.php?do=view_chatbox then they appear in your WOL. If they are posting in a chatbox that's inserted into a forum page, then they do not appear in your WOL.

It's not a problem for me, I simply disable the WOL button, so no users know about the potential feature. But if you could get this to work, then it would round off a very nice and well supported hack.

The update has fixed my quick reply problem, but now I have a new one.

No no no ! I told you the command can be used in the two ways : /pm and /mp.

However, I didn't change the javascript that automatically adds the command with the username as files are the smae for both languages :)

I'm not able to use this version of the mod, same issues as with 1.3.

I've obviously done something wrong, but I'm not sure what?

I think this was because you had modified templates of the chatbox before or you had not uploaded again the new js files.

I would say it's the second one as this variable is defined in the js file (the one from the error).

When trying to /mp I get a "command Syntax Error".

Are you sure of the syntax you've used ? the command syntax is the following :

/mp "username" your_text

Quotes are mandatory for this command :) (to avoid problems with username containing spaces).


This is not the same as for /ban and /ignore but as there is no parameter after the username for those command, there is no problems with username having spaces.

I set all permissions but it says:
you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Go to uninstall because just wate a time and that's it.

Are you sure that you set all permissions ?

I mean especially the number of posts to see the chatbox which is always forgotten by users.

Well, i have language issues too... somehow i lost my decimal point and the polls were showing 1000 instead of 100 O.o

Maybe it's a good idea to release beta scripts to test before calling it a safe to install mod.

In the end, we all appretiate the great effort! :D

With the new corrected 1.4 version ?? I have checked and I think not !

In the corrected language file there is now the following lines :


<decimalsep><![CDATA[.]]></decimalsep>
<thousandsep><![CDATA[,]]></thousandsep>


And I have tested it, the decimal separator is still there and it's the point.

Try downloading again the v1.4 and reimport the language file.

Anyway the previous versions were stable so there is no reason why it should be considered beta ;)

And once it's a total release, it can't become a beta at each version here he he

Hum, yes I think I have to change the url in my ajax calls as they are not full urls.

If you have time maybe you can try modifying the url calls in the mgc_chatbox.js file by adding manually the urls before the php files name.

I am going to try that but not haven't had the time yet so if you have some this could help ;)

Just 'idle'. Not the full message.

Nothing happens when refresh is clicked. The 'reload' circle appears, but the 'idle' message remains.

The chatbox archive IS logging the messages though.

Are your chatbox templates modified ? or are they the original ones ?

Have you uploaded the new js files ?

If first answer is no and second is yes, let's try out somtgh.

Open the mgc_chatbox.php file and search for :
echo "idle";

Replace it by:
echo $loading . "idle";

Then tell me if the msg in the chatbox is 0idle or 1idle. You must tell me that for the page load not if you click the refresh button of the chatbox.

Anyway, if only idle is shwon, this must be because the js files have not been updated IMO.

hmm i luv it but one thing the font color u have to adjust it eery shout.
How do i fix this?

If you have done the modification in the modifyoptions template (which is highly mandatory !) and selected the options your users can select then they'll be able to choose their own default color.

Did you pay careful attention to the number of posts to see the chatbox option ? This is usually the reason for that kind of problem ;)

Otherwise, show me a screenshot of your permissions settings if you're sure of them :)

I dont know where to find this option " number of posts to see the chatbox "i guess this wud the problem.
I did edit the modifyoptions template and other templates as well which u mantioned on readme.
modifyoptions template

$mgc_cb_ucp
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="thead">
<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('uopt_misc')"><img id="collapseimg_uopt_misc" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_uopt_misc].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>

With the new corrected 1.4 version ?? I have checked and I think not !

In the corrected language file there is now the following lines :


<decimalsep><![CDATA[.]]></decimalsep>
<thousandsep><![CDATA[,]]></thousandsep>


And I have tested it, the decimal separator is still there and it's the point.

Try downloading again the v1.4 and reimport the language file.

Anyway the previous versions were stable so there is no reason why it should be considered beta ;)

And once it's a total release, it can't become a beta at each version here he heOh, no, that was the first release, thaks for the support! :)

oh Yes I have ,also I Uninstall and Reinstall de Product.. reupload and etc... I don't know what going on , but I return to the last prodcut (1.4 before today) , and all is working fine...

Also , my advice for all, I don't like the fact to edit navbar template, I'm very busy to make all this changes , and YES I 'm Lazy, So , I recomend use a CUSTOM NAVBAR PLUGIN , adding the specify url: mgc_chatbox.php?$session[sessionurl]do=view_archive and mgc_chatbox.php?$session[sessionurl]do=view_chatbox

.. or ...

add ARCHIVE button to the "mgc_chatbox_editor" template

I' dont really search for de conditional variable so I only add a simple image link, and I added after the Full Mode Button link

<a href="mgc_chatbox.php?$session[sessionurl]do=view_archive" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/mgc_chatbox/mgc_cb_arch.gif" alt="" name="mgc_cb_aide" border="0" class="inlineimg" id="mgc_cb_aide" title="Archive" /></a>

The navbar shall not be changed anymore by user as there are links now in the chatbox ;)

Your button is a nice idea thus it's not very useful when in full mode.

Anyway, I could use it for the archive link when in expanded mode !

This is the first time I've ever voted for an MOTM so this is my way of saying thanks for a great product and even better support!

The only comment I'd like to make (and please don't slag me if it's already been mentioned as I did not find it in the 30+ pages I've already been through) is it would be nice if a user could turn on/off the random smilies option.

The only reason I suggest it is due to the different sizes of smilies and animated smilies out there. Adding a random component just ensures the undesirable smilies are also now in full rotation in the chatbox which messes with chat box overall aesthetic IMHO.

Quoting someones previous shout would also be a great feature because a lot of people in chat means that many different conversations are happening so it's easy for messages to get crossed.

Neither of these are complaints at all, merely suggestions for you to consider or discard, either way, it is still a great product!

I got this error:

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'mgccustomusergroupperms' in 'field list'

You haven't upload the bitfield product :)

AdminCP option only.



I can mock something up in photoshop and post it if you like.

Yes plz :)
