MGC Chatbox Evo

[morrow]

Ok... You never sent me my license file for the registered version. I went to upgrade and my site will be down until you send that to me. You sent the one for the vBa module but not for the core program. Please send it asap.

I can't even get to my admin CP because it's telling my my license is not there.

Thanks

[morrow]

Ok, no rush.. I just put the free version on until you get to it.

[Schoelle]

@morrow: As you are a license holder you should post this over at mgc's site in the support forum!

[VBDev]

Schedule is right morrow, ask for your licence in the appropriate thread and I'll send it to you, but tomorrow as I am off to bed

hi,
i installed this mod but in the chatbox it keeps saying loading..
any one know whats wrong and how to fix it?

[VBDev]

The first thing could be to check permissions on the mgc_cb_evo folder.

Verify that they are at least 755.

Clément

[Bulbucan]

Well my type-in box is very small like for 4 letters...

check website here - forum.worldofthegods.com

How to fix that?

[Schoelle]

Look in the Chatbox settings. There is an option to set the size of the input field.

hi first off thank you for your help but the folder is 755. anything else i should check?

[Skyborg]

Hi ... i dont get Messages inside a private tab.
I can open the private tab and send messages. But the Messages wont be displayed.

Under Options i can set the count of old Messages that should be displayed, but i doesnt work :(

Have anybody an idea?



second bug?
Notifications for new thread dont working.
i have activated it in mgc options and under usergroup options. But only the admins can see the notifications @same settings.

Hi Clement,

Smilies from the popup window does not work anymore?

My Version is 3.0.0!

I made an update to version 3.2.0 and back again.

[GhettoTech]

It's strange, did you modify the notification phrase ?

Not at all. We have not touched or changed the notification phrase.. but what template would that be in? Maybe I can take a look for a spare anchor tag.

[CrypticGTX]

Updated from 3.2.1 to 3.2.2 with no issues. Great fix on the "#26: Action dropdown menu cut off short" All the menu options now also work for me.

Thanks!

[Zabulus]

Many users are reporting in the new 3.2.2 that when someone posts a new thread or answers a thread, it no longer shows up in the chatbox.

This is new with the latest update.

Hi Clement,

Smilies from the popup window does not work anymore?

My Version is 3.0.0!

I made an update to version 3.2.0 and back again.

That was a bug in 3.0.0, there is nothing I could do. This is corrected in 3.2.1 and above.

Not at all. We have not touched or changed the notification phrase.. but what template would that be in? Maybe I can take a look for a spare anchor tag.

That's not a template that a phrase. Yep look if you find anything unusual.

I have this problems too.

PM tabs working on my users with MacOS, on windows and chrome dont working. notifications from 3.2.2 not working too. please fix it immediality

I am a Mac user that might be why I don't see that issue.

I'll look at this when starting fixing 3.2.2 bugs.

I'm having an issue with the @username tagging.. .When you click on the speech bubble it's redirecting to the forum. what should this be changed too?

It works for me. Do you get this issue when chatbox is included on a forum page or in own page ?

It's on it's own page with some other content around it.

It's not a bug, it's meant to work like this (at least since 3.2.1).

It's why you have a close button.

I am watching this thread because I thought to update my vsa chat box to this one.
I would like to post some thoughts.

I don't get why you have encrypted your php with ioncube. You probably might answer that you did it to protect your code.
The need to protect it assumes that everybody who is downloading your box is a potential crook. I do not know you and you don't know me. Anyway you assume I could be a crook!

So why are you publishing free software that is actually open code (php / CSS) and then encrypt it?
IMHO you don't get the spirit of open code. Either it's for free or encrypted. Really free software don't need to be encrypted.

We run php and Apache and one shall install encrypted software?
We have chosen these to have a most customizable server, so I can customize any php / templates I want and I need.
Not even vbulletin is encrypted! I can customize it where I want. And guess what if it would be encrypted?
You never would be able to write your MGC chat box for vbulletin!!
You gain benefit of non encrypted vbulletin, which isn't even for free, but you encrypt your code.

You should trust us, the admins that actually like your box and simply would customize it a bit. A real crook simply would de-ioncube your php's and use your code, so where is the point?

Under these circumstances I want that everybody is thinking about before installing your encrypted piece of code.
I do not support encrypted free software. If I should go for your box then I use the unencrypted version.
You offer to help us to get ioncube installed on our servers, I am good thanks.

Thanks for listening to my thoughts. :)

[VBDev]

Vaira,

I understand your thoughts and remarks, so let me react to them.

IMHO you don't get the spirit of open code. Either it's for free or encrypted. Really free software don't need to be encrypted.


I did this for two reason :

Protect the code, yes that is true you are right
But the main reason is the copyright notice in the chatbox


I know everyone might not try to get it off and that moving to ioncube encoding is not necessarly a good thing and that it is due to a minority.

Knowing the number of hours (if even it could be talked in terms of hours... I'd say more days) spent on this chatbox over the years I have felt a bit "pissed off" by the fact that people still try to remove the only requirement I ask in return of using my software.


Not even vbulletin is encrypted! I can customize it where I want. And guess what if it would be encrypted?

You are comparing a full software to an addition. vBulletin needs the modification to live on as modifications are the soul of it.

But yes you are right I benefit of it, but it's my choice.


You should trust us, the admins that actually like your box and simply would customize it a bit. A real crook simply would de-ioncube your php's and use your code, so where is the point?


I trust the admins but then tell me, if everyone is so trust-able as you suggest, why then in the past some have removed that link ?


I do not support encrypted free software. If I should go for your box then I use the unencrypted version.
Thanks for listening to my thoughts. :)

It's you choice and you have the right to think like that, "free-will" as we said :)

I might reconsider my position as per some feedbacks I have had, but for now I have decided to go this way, that might change in the coming weeks.

I didnt talk about you getting access to forums, but the past showed us that not every code is clean. We both know that a coder stays a human and exploits can easily happen. Just have a look at vBSEO and their latest exploit. Btw, vBGo doesnt allow encrypted files at all due to security reasons.

I trust your code in the aspect of your intention, that is not the point to me. Mistakes at coding can allow exploits, though.
I want to have clear text php in order to customize it / to have it visible.

You should contact a ton of other sites/suites/software running encryption. Along with Microsoft, Apple and all the others encrypting theirs. As long as the features are there, I see no issue.

[Alfa1]

For anyone who wonders why encryption is added to various paid addons: just google for vbulletin addons and see that ALL unencrypted paid addons are freely available. Its a huge problem to addon developers.
Consider that we can freely enjoy their work on vb.org while they get paid from the paid versions that they sell. Take that away and the developer has no food on the table and will not be able to release on vb.org

I find the move to encrypt very understandable, even though I hate ioncube and encrypted software.

I need to be able to modify the code. I have previously posted a version of the chatbox that fixed a security issue that I needed to have resolved pronto. There also was a addon conflict I had resolved. This cant be done with encrypted software.

One thing that I think people on vb.org forget now and then is that you are freely enjoying this software and should be grateful for this. I do not think anyone has a right to become angry at a coder who works so you can use the software for free.
it is this behavior that has caused more than a few coders to retract all their work from vb.org

[Nelson58]

I apologize in advance if this was asked before. I need a chat for my site that works ON THE NAVBAR and OPENS A NEW PAGE, and TELLS OTHERS THAT PEOPLE ARE IN CHAT.

Your chat seems to work on the same page, and that extends the page, which I don't want. Valter's VSA chat puts a link on the Navbar, but has no way to announce who is in chat.

Will your chat do what I need?

1- put a link on the Navbar (like Valter's VSA Chat)

2- open a new page rather than extending the existing page by embedding

3- let other users know that someone is in chat (or let them be paged or notified).

Thanks,

Nelson

[VBDev]

1- put a link on the Navbar (like Valter's VSA Chat)


Not automatically though, but now that you says it is stupid not :(
Adding this to the todo list.


2- open a new page rather than extending the existing page by embedding


mgc_cb_evo.php?do=view_chatbox shows the chatbox on its own page, though there is a small bug on that part in the current version that makes it quite unusable, this will be fixed by end of the month.


3- let other users know that someone is in chat (or let them be paged or notified).


You mean elsewhere than on the chatbox page ?

1. It would be great if you add a link to the Navbar that opens its own page like Vchat by Valter.

2. mgc_cb_evo.php?do=view_chatbox - where would I put this code? I am a newbie to PHP.

3. Let others know on the bottom of the userlist that others are in chat, how many, which chat channel, and allow a registered user to page someone to chat, and permit pages to be turned off if someone does not want to be bothered.

Hi m8,

Well that's not the case at all, it's the fact that staff can't even view the code to verify a number of things... quality, security, and countless other aspects. We are actually in the process of updating the Rules page to include:

13: You may not post any plugin, product, style, or other code that is encrypted in any way. All code must be visible source.

Now despite the fact it's not stated there currently, as far as I remember from when I first came here encrypted code has never been allowed at all, maybe it was a chat I had with ex-coordinator Marco at one point or in the forum itself when someone else posted a inquiry however it's officially not allowed.

With that said VBDev please be so kind as to update the modification to remove the IONCUBE encryption from all files and re-upload the mod. I do understand that might take a little time so I have no issues giving you until next Thursday to do so however after that day if not done I'll have to graveyard the modification until you have time to properly update it for release here. Thank you so much for your understanding and I sincerely hope you plan on updating it accordingly because I've always enjoyed this modification myself and know a few others who have as well ;).

I can see your point,but I can also see the need from the coders point of view.Your comment should not be posted in this thread as your just adding fuel to the fire.Maybe if vborg staff had got their heads together and come back with assitance to the coder rather than adding a rule based on hearsay, would have been more productive for both parties.

Personally I dont understand how you can add a rule for this mod,yet let the likes of unsupported modifications be posted free at will.For me thats the pot calling the kettle.Possibly you could have come back with, we will create a new section for encrypted mods and let users make their own choice,rather than coming back with in my eyes a pathetic reply.

If you are to support coders in the future than you need to get your acts together and look at reality not pass judgement based on old, outdated TOS.The world is moving forward but for me at present vborg is getting left behind.

So I have an issue here. I recently upgraded my vbulletin to version 4.1.10 and it destroyed my chatbox. The chatbox just says loading. I can enter chats and when I click enter, I can see them going into the database. But the chats never load. I look in my console and see that there are errors being thrown. Here are the errors:

<br /><strong>Warning</strong>: array_diff_key() [<a href='function.array-diff-key'>function.array-diff-key</a>]: Argument #2 is not an array in <strong>[path]/includes/class_datastore.php</strong> on line <strong>283</strong><br /><br /><strong>Warning</strong>: array_keys() [<a href='function.array-keys'>function.array-keys</a>]: The first argument should be an array in <strong>[path]/includes/class_datastore.php</strong> on line <strong>283</strong><br /><br /><strong>Warning</strong>: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in <strong>[path]/includes/class_datastore.php</strong> on line <strong>284</strong><br /><br /><strong>Warning</strong>: session_start() [<a href='function.session-start'>function.session-start</a>]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at [path]/includes/class_core.php:5588) in <strong>[path]/includes/facebook/facebook.php</strong> on line <strong>37</strong><br /><br /><strong>Warning</strong>: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [path]/includes/class_core.php:5588) in <strong>[path]/mgc_cb_evo_ajax.php</strong> on line <strong>326</strong>

Does anyone have a clue as to why this is happening all of the sudden? The chatbox is supposed to be compatible with 4.1.10, and I have no clue as to the issue and need to have this back up asap. Thanks for your help!!

Thanks for this its a great mod !

[VBDev]

So I have an issue here. I recently upgraded my vbulletin to version 4.1.10 and it destroyed my chatbox. The chatbox just says loading. I can enter chats and when I click enter, I can see them going into the database. But the chats never load. I look in my console and see that there are errors being thrown. Here are the errors:

<br /><strong>Warning</strong>: array_diff_key() [<a href='function.array-diff-key'>function.array-diff-key</a>]: Argument #2 is not an array in <strong>[path]/includes/class_datastore.php</strong> on line <strong>283</strong><br /><br /><strong>Warning</strong>: array_keys() [<a href='function.array-keys'>function.array-keys</a>]: The first argument should be an array in <strong>[path]/includes/class_datastore.php</strong> on line <strong>283</strong><br /><br /><strong>Warning</strong>: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in <strong>[path]/includes/class_datastore.php</strong> on line <strong>284</strong><br /><br /><strong>Warning</strong>: session_start() [<a href='function.session-start'>function.session-start</a>]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at [path]/includes/class_core.php:5588) in <strong>[path]/includes/facebook/facebook.php</strong> on line <strong>37</strong><br /><br /><strong>Warning</strong>: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [path]/includes/class_core.php:5588) in <strong>[path]/mgc_cb_evo_ajax.php</strong> on line <strong>326</strong>

Does anyone have a clue as to why this is happening all of the sudden? The chatbox is supposed to be compatible with 4.1.10, and I have no clue as to the issue and need to have this back up asap. Thanks for your help!!

Hum well this error is kinda strange... You are the first to report such problem.

Try enabling/disabling a command and do the same for a channel if any. That should rebuild chatbox datastore.

i need help i can't uninstall the chat box because i keep getting the following error

Site error: the file /home/content/68/8985268/html/mgc_cb_evo/plugins/init_startup.php requires the ionCube PHP Loader ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so to be installed by the website operator. If you are the website operator please use the ionCube Loader Wizard to assist with installation.

I tried to install ion but its not working, all i care is uninstall so i can get my site back.

EDIT: Never mind i fixed my self

[heartsglad]

- Did you check Usergroup Permissions and made sure "can view" is set ?
- Did you check the display settings for the chatbox and specidied "where" to display it ?

[matrixmark]

Hey,

Im sure I have seen the option but on looking I cant find it again lol...

Im trying to make it refresh a little more frequently (currently I think its set around 30sec) but I cant find the option anywhere!.

Any ideas as to where it is are greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

No problem ;)

I went to upgrade my chatbox through the product manager and while trying to upload the .xml file I received this error:
"Site error: the file /home1/xxxxxxx/public_html/forums/mgc_cb_evo/plugins/init_startup.php requires the ionCube PHP Loader ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so to be installed by the website operator. If you are the website operator please use the ionCube Loader Wizard to assist with installation."

I have ionCube Loader installed so I am confused. I tried searching for an hour and cannot find what the issue is. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Having a similar issue here.

In my case, it says: "cannot be decoded by this version of the ionCube Loader. If you are the administrator of this site then please install the latest version of the ionCube Loader."

According to /etc/php.d/ioncube-loader.ini the library being loaded is php_ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so (it's a plesk box) .. is that not what it needs?

I tried changing the ini to point to a ioncube_loader_lin_5.3.so version but then I got the error message as the quoted text: "requires the ionCube PHP Loader ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so to be installed by the website operator. If you are the website operator please use the ionCube Loader Wizard to assist with installation."

I think I fixed my problem:

I went to ioncube website and downloaded in a .zip file the proper one based on the OS my host is running. Opened it up, extracted the folder to desktop.
Logged into my host via ftp and they had a folder called ioncube. I opened that folder and there was no .2 or .3 files so I copied both 5.2 files from the folder on my desktop to my ioncube folder on my host and bam it worked.
I am still running into issues when typing into my chat with a stupid security ticket error that I haven't figured out yet though.

Great, 'cause I broke my site too, trying to upgrade to 3.2.2 from 3.0.0.
Managed to get it working again by re-uploading the 3.0.0 files.

(You should mention this issue in the README files!!!)

Otherwise GREAT software addon!!!!:)

Are you referring to having the security token problem after the upgrade?

[HP10T]

I downloaded the 3.0 version and re-uploaded the contents of the files folder to the forum root and overwrote the files and nothing else and it works just fine now so I am leaving it for the time being.

[Piggo]

Yes, exactly. The site was basically inaccessible.
Same issue as this person: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2297015&postcount=7773

I mainly posted here to let other persons know that if one tries to install this version over the old one, and the site becomes inaccessible with a "....requires the ionCube PHP Loader...." error, that by overwriting the uploaded 3.2.2 files with the old 3.0.0. files should bring the site back again.

I must also mention that I uploaded the 3.2.2. files without uninstalling the 3.0.0. product first.

I hardly ever read the instructions carefully, although this is the first product I installed that gave such a fatal error (even IF I did something wrong).

Right now, no.

Anyways upcoming release will not be encoded so you'll be able to use it.

[fuzzyz0r]

I need help after installing I had problems with IonCube, I tried to remove the php files, and fails.
I'm trying to access the admin panel but the screen is white with only the errors below:

Warning: include([path]/mgc_cb_evo/plugins/init_startup.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/includes/init.php(336) : eval()'d code on line 1

[VBDev]

The error is quite straightforward, you haven't uploaded the mgc_cb_evo folder in your forum root.

Check on your ftp.

[crazymook]

So I guess I should never assume something...

Installed but it turns out the host does not have ionCube...site no longer works. Cant access the admin cp to remove the product. Site simply is white w/ the error others have posted.

Is there anything I can do to bring the site back? Does simply removing the files on the ftp bring the site back?

Theres no concern of the host not being able to get ioncube on the server, but I dont particularly want to sit around and wait right now.

open ur config file (includes/config.php and add
define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

right after the <?php

that'll disable all plugins, now u can go in and disable it and uninstall it

when ur done, u can remove the line u added or add // in front of it to comment it out

//define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

[crazymook]

Thanks man! Worked like a charm.

[VBDev]

As requested by vb.org staff, encoding removed

No new features nor bug corrections, haven't had the time

[Asmod]

so we can install it now ? I personally have vb 4.1.10 - will it work? :D

[Asmod]

is not showing up after install

[Asmod]

I need to do something special for it to work ? I mean i uploaded the files then the plugin product.

Well perhaps reading the install instructions would help ;)

You have to set usergroup permissions.

Great chatbox!
one suggestion id like to make though is when doing a search, within the results can we have an option of finding say where a chat result is within the archive so we can view the whole conversation the search gave results for. Not sure if ive explained this right, but basically an option to "find this chat in archive" instead of having to search the date and time going through the pages of the archive which can be a pain.

Also updating from 3.0.0 to the latest version 3.2.2 will it be fine to do so?

How about a private chat like if only two members want to chat like private chat box feature?

Activate the PM Command (admincp)
Set the PM command permissions (admincp)
Set the PM in tabs option in the command options part (admincp > settings)

Pretty straightforward ;)

Yes pretty straight, believe me that's a wonderful feature.

Was there a new version out today? What did it fix? (The PM bug hopefully)

[FernandoFG]

Only way would be to "hack" the css, not sure if you are skilled in that area ?

Where?, How?

[VBDev]

Not really, just removing of ioncube encoding as requested by the vb.org staff...

Where?, How?

Hum if you ask it's meaning that you don't have the skills ;)

Well basically you'd have to inspect what is the id of the object you want to tweak by inspecting the DOM with a tool like firebug. Then adding css code to the templates.

[Skyrider]

Is the new thread/post notification fixed by any chance?

[VBDev]

As I said, only encoding removal, no new version yet

[Skyrider]

That's a shame. Our members are missing the feature for a while now :(.

[Kybyrian]

I can't get notifications to display for any usergroups except our admin usersgroups, which is odd. Removed myself from the admin usergroup and tried every usergroup -- only worked on the two we have reserved for webmaster and administrators. I have notifications enabled for each usergroup in question. I even tried enabling every single permission for MGC Chatbox Evo in the usergroup options, no dice for any of them.

[Schoelle]

@Kybyrian: was mentioned several times now on the last pages, it is a known bug and will be fixed in the next release!

[VBDev]

Thanks

There is an option for that, you have to allow unregistered to chat through usergroup options, then you have to set an option to ask guests to input a username.

how i unban the users in chatbox ?

Either through the /showban command than open a page to let you do this.
Or with the /unban command (see help inside the chatbox for more info on its syntax).

[Asmod]

Thanks for the support but it seems that i got some problems with it and database error, first it makes forums not showing the last post made by last one who posted in threads, is showing only the starter // and second it gives error when i try to validate post or threads in admincp ( error on mgc_evo line 1 ....etc) Uninstalled.

The bug for validation in admincp is a known bug I have to correct.

Example :

The bot is fairly simple, it triggers on strings or words (in that case word).
Hence there is no real work around.

I'll be implementing a smart bot but no right now.

It has the New Posts Private Messages FAQ Calendar Community Forum Actions Quick Links right below the smilies.

I tried reinstalling the shoutbox and I got this error - An error occurred while processing the bitfield files, the following information was returned: Bitfield Collision: credits_cantearn = allowvideos

This error now also shows up under AdminCP -> MGC Chatbox Evo -> Chats formatting -> Choice of the formatting options which can be selected in the user control panel

EDIT: Found out it was a conflict in my custom skin.

[Skyborg]

There was such an issue sometime ago but never found why and thought it was fixed.

Can you please report it useing project tools on my website plz ?

Yes, i?ll post it on your site.

@VBDev:
I can?t select your new Version unter Affected Version in your Project Tool.
Have postet it on 3.2.2.

[whitedd]

I can't get notifications to display for any usergroups except our admin usersgroups, which is odd. Removed myself from the admin usergroup and tried every usergroup -- only worked on the two we have reserved for webmaster and administrators. I have notifications enabled for each usergroup in question. I even tried enabling every single permission for MGC Chatbox Evo in the usergroup options, no dice for any of them.

not fixed with this version... :((

Anyone having the same problem ?

Try changing the Dojo Theme spcified in:
MGC Chatbox Evo : Advanced options -> DoJo Graphical Theme

i dont have this option ???? have anybody a idea ????

We ran into a little issue updating to the newest version today.

1) PMs still don't work for many (I use firefox works for me, some others that use firefox it doesn't work)

2) My programmer said you would know what this meant:

plugin: mgc_cb_evo/plugins/fetch_userinfo_query.php
add <?php


** Edit ** Now my PMs aren't working again :(

[VBDev]

Yes adminpanal ---mgcevo--/ adv. Option

Man it's the first option, re-check with opened eyes ;)

Regarding PMs, please ask your users to empty their cache. I ran a test and it works.

Regarding 2, yeah <? works but <?php is indeed better, this is I think the only place where I didn't do it...

Can anyone assist with a work around for broken chatbox size in Chrome/IE/Safari? Chatbox displays correctly in FF but in the other three browsers the chatbox over spans forum borders by a looooooong way.
VB Ver 3.8.7
MGC Ver. 3.2.3 clean install after removing ver 3

TIA

[whitedd]

...downgraded to 3.0.0 :(

[sweetpotato]

3.2.3 works for me with Vb 4.1.11 but notifications still not showing. Though it really better than 3.0.0 so much.

Thanks for the nice mode.

By not showing do you mean that the block isn't there ?

Can you please check wether the block of the chatbox is here or not in the forum & moderator menu > Blocks manager ?

Screenshots added. As can be seen, in Safari & Chrome the chat box stays in a collapsed mode and scrolls off screen by a long way.

[Lemminator]

Man it's the first option, re-check with opened eyes ;)

hi i have found it and test it with all 4 options ...but the problem is the same .. test it with firefox , opera and iexplorer.. what can i do somethink ??

greetz lemmi

[oldlock]

Does this mod call anything from a third party website ? I have this mod on a site that is https and users get security warnings. If I disable the chat mod the warnings cease. So I am guessing that it must have some kind of external non ssl link active ??

[Moncha]

This would be for my BF Version, When on the archive page, then using any of the options on the Navagation dropdown, they all lead to a 404 error..

NVM... Re-downloaded the package and made sure the files were current. Fixed

[Osiris183]

Looks great. I have two users testing this, both admins, with all options enabled in usergroup settings. When we type in chat, it does not update the box, so we can not see what the other wrote without hitting refresh.

Anyway to fix this?

[hyperviperx99]

Hey we're getting errors with the new download... I think there's a problem with the update. Check my site- http://www.fliprap.com - Now, I can't figure out what's wrong

[W!cKeD]

Im on vBulletin 4.1.11 and the Chatbox loads and loads.. but i dont know why, any hints?

[VBDev]

Yes. I mean Chatbox Block does not show though I still see it in the forum & moderator.

What have you set on the notification configuration page ?

Screenshots added. As can be seen, in Safari & Chrome the chat box stays in a collapsed mode and scrolls off screen by a long way.

Hu, I had tried it with vB3.8.7 and no problem.

The fact that it stays in collapse mode is strange, did you check whether you had modified chatbox templates ? (Unless you did a french install ?)

Do you get any javascript errors in the firefox console ?

hi i have found it and test it with all 4 options ...but the problem is the same .. test it with firefox , opera and iexplorer.. what can i do somethink ??

?! At first you stated that you didn't find the option to load dojo files from google servers but there is no 4 options for that ?

You lost me, what's your exact problem !?

No it doesn't. What were the security warnings stating ?

Perhaps are they coming from the ajax calls that uses forum url but I guess your forum url has https in it.

Refresh is a basic in the chatbox and works since many many version, there must be something wrong either in your configuration or on your server.

If you check in the firefox console do you see any error ?

Hey we're getting errors with the new download... I think there's a problem with the update. Check my site- http://www.fliprap.com - Now, I can't figure out what's wrong

The chatbox is not visible to non registered user so I can't check your site...

Im on vBulletin 4.1.11 and the Chatbox loads and loads.. but i dont know why, any hints?

Have you refreshed your browser cache once the install has been performed ?
Did you check that you had no modified templates ?
Any js errors ?

[alaska_av8r]

Just purchased the program with the cms integration, all is working well but I cannot seem to figure out how to get it to display as a forum block. I currently have it at the top of the forum but would rather it be in a block off to the side. Am I missing a setting?

I went to the forum blocks manager and set its display order, I selected edit and it is active but I noticed the content area is blank, so obviously I need to add some code??? Just don't know what to add.

[johkalhaups]

Is there a way to flip the shoutbox around?

Like having the text at the top and the text entry box, format stuff and smilies down at the bottom.

Kinda like making it look like an IM chat window.

[oldlock]

No it doesn't. What were the security warnings stating ?

Perhaps are they coming from the ajax calls that uses forum url but I guess your forum url has https in it.

IE9 warns users about mixed secure and insecure content. The warnings cease when the chatbox mod is disabled.

Yes, the forum url has the https in it so I'm puzzled. This warning did not present before the last two updates.

[alaska_av8r]

johk I saw what you are looking for in the settings.

Hi Cl?ment, I think I have narrowed down my chatbox format issue to the "/pm command: Activate the private chats in tabs" feature, if I enable it formatting goes off the rails as shown in the screencaps in my previous post. Not sure why but for now I will keep it disabled.

The blank chatbox "loading" issue appears to be related to channels, enabling a second or third channel results in the loading issue, with just the default channel it goes away. It should be noted though that with more than one channel a simple chatbox refresh will bring back the content.

[johkalhaups]

johk I saw what you are looking for in the settings.

Yea, I got the shouts flipped where the new ones are on the bottom but I cant seem to find the setting to flip the text input box and all that to the bottom.

I didnt even know if it was a setting or if Id have to do a template hack or something like that.



EDIT: Nevermind, I was totally overlooking the option. :rolleyes:

[alaska_av8r]

Okay I know this is probably a feature but I am unable to find it. I can see the Bot's name is in a different color than mine.

Is is possible to change the bot's name to a different color?

Is is possible to assign specific colors to the name's of people belonging to a specific usergroup, such as moderator? Is it also possible to change the color of their chat message?

thank you

Anyways CMS integration means what it means and doesn't relate to the forum block.

Having the chatbox as a forum block is not yet implemented.

You must have something that mess with chatbox code, some non closed template or kinda.

Is that a default vb style or modified ?

Hum, I didn't try to check with multiple channels on my vB3 install, I'll give it a try.

[VBDev]

Is is possible to change the bot's name to a different color?


You can change its name or the color of the chats but that all, unless you set the bot to a specific userid. In that case it takes the user name and the usergroup default username color of that user.


Is is possible to assign specific colors to the name's of people belonging to a specific usergroup, such as moderator? Is it also possible to change the color of their chat message?


Well that's a vb feature, as it's integrated I didn't make it specifically for the chatbox.

For the color, you can set a default color for each usergroup yes from the admincp usergroup permissions.

[alaska_av8r]

thanks!

[alaska_av8r]

vb.org is not the place to ask questions about the paid product.

didn't know that but now I do.

Try tundra I think it's a darker one.

I had the same thing Mike. It was all about setting up in ACP -> Usergroups -> Manage each usergrup has to be ALLOWED to view and post chats. Once set up, all those usergroups can see it.

Funny thing is, even administrators have to be setup to see and use it. I agree at least that should be automatically enabled for usergroup 6. (admins)

I still have the problem but if you get a warning message. For example, in quick succession to posting the message was supposed to come, this one can not read and so is dictated by you. Only thing I can now make even more?

many dear greet Lemminator

[VBDev]

This is what I have ?

Oh you are using the old 3.0.0 version...
This version has bug you should move to 3.2.3.

With that option set like that the clue of perhaps an issue coming from javascript is cancelled. Generally ssl error states which url is trying to be called, do you have the content of the report ?

Yesterday my website got suspended. When i asked why they said me that there was an attack to the host from my website from the url: /mgc_cb_evo_ajax.php. I thought that was what makes the chat being always connected so i downgrade it to the version 3.2.2 and no more problems. Is there any solution for this? Or its a bug with the reconnection of 3.2.3 and i should keep using 3.2.2?

I've installed it on vbulletin version 3.8.7 and currently testing it with internal stuff before buying the branding free version and releasing it for all users.

Currently I have the command/action-box issue, that was reported several times in January/February in this thread. So in Firefox and Internet Explorer all the action available pressing the down-arrow-button are not working. Any ideas, where this is coming from and how to get them running?

Well that one is certainly because your text is white all over the forum.

The only possibility would be to tweak the css code.
Edit CSS Templates > mgc_cb_evo.css

Add at the bottom :

div#mgc_cb_evo_dialog_content {
color: black;
}

I am sorry but I didn't understand everything.

What did your host meant by attack ? Did he mean many calls from your site to the file mgc_cb_evo_ajax.php ? What's your refresh rate ?

In 3.2.3, I have implemented a mechanism that checks if an ajax calls timeout to refresh the chats in that case I launch a retry that could come from there but I need more info from you.

What do you mean by "being always connected" ? What do you mean by reconnection ?

I have vbseo, "vB Tournaments and Ladders", "Cyb - Advanced Forum Statistics" or "AME - The Automatic Media Embeder" and some other small PlugIns running. What is strange:

Commands/Actions/links on the forumhome and in the fullscreen-mode are not working 100%, but on the archiv-page at least the link to the users profile and link to all messages from one user are working, modify message is partly working, the others not.

Would really like to get this mod running :)

[Skyrider]

First updated, then removed it and fully reinstalled the chatbox, and it still shows "Loading ..." for me.. And I updated to the latest version, what gives? :o. Would appreciate some help here. Tried using FireFox, doesn't display any chats while in the archive, the chats are being displayed. Loading the javascript from the server or google doesn't matter, same issue.

Ok then the sentence is good but not the translation as there used to be translation for the chatbox in english before. It's side stuff no problem though.

I've had to disable the mod due to the security warnings until a fix is available.

[VBDev]

What security warning ? Hey man this MGC Chatbox Evo not vBShout here...

You are misleading, my mod is not subject to any security warning atm...

[oldlock]

As I said before. I used the mod on a HTTPS site, IE9 presents security warnings about mixed content (see my original post). These warnings cease when the mod is disabled. It appears to be only IE9 that does this ..

[VBDev]

Oh sorry I messed up my mind ;)

Well unless you are able to find what url call lead to the error I can't help you man as I don't have ssl on my website.

Same here, test account to your forum by pm plz
While I'd love to share a test account, enabling your chatbox is currently causing a lot of problems forum wide. Posting replies takes ages (and when it's done, it posts a lot of duplicate posts) and editing posts also takes a long time. Unsure if the "loading..." is causing it though.

So I prefer I could give you a test account if I have direct contact with you (AIM, MSN, Skype, IRC, etc) as I don't wish to affect the forums with it's slowdowns.

[Pladimir]

The clock in the chatbox on the right side isnt synchron with the chat messages.
Messages are 10min to late...
And how do i set the color in usergroups for de chatbox?

[VBDev]

hello , where i can put date on the right?

You mean the date inside the chats ?

Can i put chat only in certain forum (example admin forum) and having an admin forum only?

Yes you can through display options.

I don't provide support through instant messaging sorry.

The clock in the chatbox on the right side isnt synchron with the chat messages.

And how do i set the color in usergroups for de chatbox?

The clock in the right side is client side, that means your computer clock.
While the chats time is based on server side, that means your server computer clock with the timezone adjustments.

Therefore there can be differences between your server and your computer you know...

[Skyrider]

Then no can do, sorry. The "loading..." issue affects the entire forums, thus I cannot just re-enable it and wait minutes to hours or a day for you to come online and help with the issue. I do appreciate it, but I prefer not to affect the users what so ever.

I solved the issue so far by using 3.2.0 of the plugin with the 3.2.3 files. Most of the chatbox works fine again.

[VBDev]

So you mean it comes from the 3.2.0 templates in that case ?

That's strange coz I didn't touch them much in the 3.2.1 and above versions.

Oh but btw I think you have my gtalk account id so you can contact me with it ;)

[hardiksadaria]

How can I disable this mod.
I am not able to access admin panel also

Please guide

[Crotan]

add define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

to the top of your config.php. Of course this will disable all mods, so you'll want to uninstall the chatbox then remove the line from config.php

This is a reported bug I have to look at.

It's pretty straightforward. You are missing files, have you uploaded files in your ftp ?

I have installed this and it seems to be working just fine however I have a question.

Is there any way to select a different background colour for the chat window? I have ticked the parameter to allow alternate background colour for each message but this simply gives a very light two tone grey effect. I would like to change the colour to something different.

[W!cKeD]

I think the Problem is in the Plugin : Usergroup default color and chanid retrieving
I deactivted this Plugin and chatbox loads fine


The constant loading goes away ?

Yes, "Loading" goes away and chatbox works fine ;)

If you want to tweak those two colours you can edit the mgc_cb_evo.css template.

Hum, that's strange I'll have to get a look wether why it does messed up with your setup.

I'm having an issue after installing. I'm receiving this message at the top of the page:

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in [path]/global.php(29) : eval()'d code on line 58

Not quite sure what to do to fix it.

[MrHyde]

Well in that case the dropdown menu shall work.
Please send me a test account per pm so that I can give it a look.


Have send it, please let me know, if you need more. Thanks!

Activate the PM Command (admincp)
Set the PM command permissions (admincp)
Set the PM in tabs option in the command options part (admincp > settings)

Pretty straightforward ;)

Yes pretty straight, believe me that's a wonderful feature.

Which kind of bug in this?

G!

Unfortunately this specific feature does not work for me. I just get kicked back to the user profile when clicing on the username. Veird.

Any tips would be apprechiated. (Much apprechiated, actually)

[fortforum]

Could you please upload the 3.0.0 package again? This update was not for us, and i would like the old cb back.

[gajinoz]

If you want to tweak those two colours you can edit the mgc_cb_evo.css template.



OK, great, but I'm not experienced at editing css files. Could you tell me exactly what part of the template I need to edit to change the colour? Could you give me an example of what bit of code I need to change please.

I can't get this feature to work on a 3.8.7 board either, clicking PM "User" does zero and worse, enabling the PM tab feature pretty much kills the chat box. Pity as it's a really cool feature.

Hum, with latest version ? The only array merge is for datastores and templates.

Do you have any channel or command active ? If not try to activatate a command (just for test).

Have send it, please let me know, if you need more. Thanks!

Haven't had the time to look at it.

Have you enabled pm command and set pm command permissions correctly ?

Search for alt1 and alt2 in that template.
You should find something like background-color : #color_value;

Yeah I know when you activate that feature in 3.8.7 you get the chatbox totally minimized, it has been reported to me and I have been able to reproduce it.

I have to check why.

.

Nope, nothing like that in that template.

[Kane@airrifle]

Just noticed that none of the commands, e.g. Ban or Delete all user chats etc work from the drop down menu.

So you have the same issue as me then, the commands are not working in Mozilla and Internet Explorer. Hope Clement will find a solution for this :)

Hey there, developer, nice to hear from you. This mod is great, but this is not working. I have set the commands. Still no juice.

Sorry to troubble you, but i could realy need the 3.0.0 files, if you have them handy.

Latest pro version and vb4.1.11 give far you high CPU usuage.

for istance only handful of users online this morning before fresh install of 3.2.3 cpu usuage only 5-10%, with this installed now getting approx 45% cpu usuage.

I've tried both 3.2.1 & 3.2.2, anyone got any ideas?

Last night with approx 110 members online but no one actually using the chatbox cpu usuage crept upto approx 75%.

Running dedicated quad core server with 4gb ram.

Really stuck with this now.

Hello I have a fix for this great chatbox mod. In cron task file mgc_cb_evo_ban.php the mod are unbanning all users without checking if the user is banned and if you use /ban on uname <nickname> the bantime is always 0 and the cron task will unban.

Edit mgc_cb_evo/cron/mgc_cb_evo_ban.php

Find this code:

// Lets unban users
$vbulletin->db->query_write("
UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user
SET mgc_cb_evo_banned='0',mgc_cb_evo_bantime='0'
WHERE mgc_cb_evo_bantime<'" . TIMENOW . "'
");

and replace it with:

// Lets unban users
$vbulletin->db->query_write("
UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user
SET mgc_cb_evo_banned='0',mgc_cb_evo_bantime='0'
WHERE mgc_cb_evo_banned = '1' AND mgc_cb_evo_bantime > '0' AND mgc_cb_evo_bantime < '" . TIMENOW . "'
");

Now if you use a permanent ban using /ban on uname <nick> it will be a permanent ban, otherwise it apply bantime > 0 and the user will be re-admited when the time expires.

Regards
