ok so special characters are working in whatever is typed. but people who have special characters ihn their names it doesnt show.

example:
#16:59 B�cky> says Bécky

[TalkDisneyChann]

When someone posts a message, it shows up as..

(username) message (username)

Why is that?

Just installed this, and I'm getting:
$gperm = convert_bits_to_array($vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['gcbos_permissions'], $vbulletin->bf_ugp_gcbos_permissions); //User has permission to view the shoutbox if ($gperm['can_view']) { global $style; global $vbulletin; //THe embed code is on the page and this doesnt contain the "switchmode" editor from vbcms (may require editing for custom skins) if (preg_match('//', $output) && !preg_match('/vB_Editor_002_cmd_switchmode/', $output)) { //Header information to embed $vbcsspath = 'css.php?styleid=' . $vbulletin->userinfo['styleid'] . '&langid=' . LANGUAGEID . '&d=' . $style['dateline'] . '&sheet='; $gcbos_head = '' . PHP_EOL . ''; //Do we need to include the forumbits.css file? Append it to the header if (!preg_match('/forumbits.css/', $output)) $gcbos_head = '' . PHP_EOL . $gcbos_head; //Replace the ending head tag with the new information (this allows us to easily deploy on custom pages). $output = str_replace('', $gcbos_head, $output); //Replace the embed code with the shoutbox (works globally anywhere on the page) :D $output = str_replace('', vB_Template::create('GCBOS')->render(), $output); } }
at the top of the forums.

This plugin completely shut down the host server >_>, with tons of SQL errors.

[gameplayforum]

What do you mean by "-Set usergroup permissions" and should I add only {SHOUTBOX} or <!-- {SHOUTBOX} --> ? But the <!-- --> is so the browser won't read the code right? I can't understabnd what you mean by -set usergroup permissions, what should I change? and when I add the {SHOUTBOX} it only appears like that, nothing more.

[C0D3D]

Any chance to see some font/color changing functions, smileys and all that in this?

[bluebare]

Is there anyway to change the title on this box from 'GSCOS' to 'SHOUTBOX' so that most of my users know what it is?

[DAMINK]

Can this be limited to one specific forum?

[Redneck-Melly]

How do you turn off GCBOS in the "Who's online" so it shows where members are not that they are always in GCBOS?

[DonnieJ]

Sorry if this is a repeated question, I tried to see if this was already answered but there are a lot of posts:

Is there a way to turn off PM notification for this plugin? We have had it installed for awhile, but our previous site mod is no longer around and I cant find the option anywhere to turn this off.

Thanks in advance.

Someone knows how i can see gcbos also in subforum and not only at forumhome?

I have installed this on 4.1.3 and it seems to work really well.

*i take that back.. it actually went quite haywire.. the chat box started scrolling mysql errors.

Unfortunately doesn't work :(

[iRoush]

anybody know how to get this mod to work with Android Phones? GCBOS seems to only be having issues with the Android phones and nothing else. We had a code to make it work on our previous version of GCBOS but have since lost it. Thanks.

Is this mod working fine? Im seeing a lot of posts talking about the mod not working the way intended. Is that true?

[Ziki]

Hi,

Great mod! I wanted to invert the message order (put input field on top and messages will appear below), but I only managed to reverse the display order of the messages. However when I post a new message, it gets appended below and because my lack of javascript knowledge, I do not know how to change that :)

How would I do that?

Thanks!

[nima6]

just installed it. Works like a charm in V4

[januszmk6]

Is possible to change a way of showing messages? I would like to shoutbox show messages without any displays effects.
thanks in advance

[doc fluty]

I installed it and it works great!

But how to I get it to show up like you have in the demo - [Today 2:24pm]

mine shows up #16:02 and then the user name....

thanks for the plug in and support!

[AddwireCom]

Ok im 15 pages deep in this mess. I really have high hopes for this mod. I'm getting Now Loading... you can visit my website at clanhqk.com and it's on the right widget. Any help would be appreciated to making sure this works..

also I didnt see any instructions about editing the header_include in the instructions. I seen people talk about it a few times. but I really want to know if there are any clear set of instructions on how to get this to work?

[flyrib]

Hello, I´ve used this fantastic chatbox the past years, but now when I´ve updated the vb4 from version 4 to 4.20, the chatbox disappeared ! Please help anybody!

[nima6]

How can i put the chat box below the forum's main area?

[MyChemicalSelf]

I have some free time coming up in the next few weeks I'll try get this working again in vB4.2 :) sorry for not being around work caught up with me.

[Betoworld]

does it work with v4.2.2?

[Raz0r.]

I've loved this GCBOS ever since I saw it on a forum I modded a few years back, and I've always used this on my vB4 forums.
does it work with v4.2.2?

Both yes and no. Yes, if you edit it. No, if you just install it as is.

If you install it now, it WILL give you the error "Call-time-pass-by-reference has been removed from line 125 in public_html/root_folder/includes/class_gcbos.php"

However there's an easy quickfix for this.
Go into line 125 in class_gcbos.php. It'll say
$done = call_user_func($command['function'], $this, $command, $params, $message, &$output);//Fix for PHP5.3+
All you need to do is find "&$output" and remove "&" from it. Then it'll look like this;

$done = call_user_func($command['function'], $this, $command, $params, $message, $output);//Fix for PHP5.3+
Which works fine on my forum.
Hope this helps!

---Edit---

Now you might encounter "Function split() is deprecated in gcbos.php on line 109"

Another quickfix is available for this. Go into gcbos.php on that line, and replace "split" with "explode".
/help doesn't work, but everything else should work fine. (Note, I haven't tried all the commands yet, but I assume that they work as /me, /prune and /notice works)
