Has the issue with the chats not being aligned in FF 3.0.6 been fixed? Just wondering because I just installed 2.2.1 and my chats are aligned just fine in FF 3.0.6 I'm using vb 3.7.3 so maybe only > 3.8.0 is affected or something???


Also I notice that two tables are missing from the new 2.2.1 version

Have these tables been removed from the coding altogether or are they for an option that I just don't have enabled yet?

Other than that everything looks good Thanks VBDev :up:

Seems to work, when the latest shouts will be displayed at the top of the chatbox.
Otherwise not..

Oh ok I suppose that's why mine is working fine then. Thanks for that input! :up:

Thank you, I was able to make the changes but then I ran into another problem. Is there anyway to actually edit the chatbox template itself? I noticed where ever i insert the $chatbox_forumhome code, it automatically makes a space after even if there is no <br/> in the template I paste it into. Also, I wanted to add it into a table but it removes the table class for all the other items in that table. So I would want to remove table class close in the chatbox template itself.

So basically, where can I find the full code for what this equalls to = $chatbox_forumhome ?

table class

Hello VBDev,

Thank you for looking into this issue. The ChatBox appears to work fine but I would estimate only in about 60% of cases. So here it goes:
- Tested in IE, FF and Safari on Windows and OSX platforms. It seems that it is not related to browsers. I use FF most but in my opinion, the ChatBox should be made to work best in IE. Over 70% of worldwide internet users are using IE.

- I open the forum home in ten pages and in about six of these pages, the ChatBox content will appear fine. In the rest of them (about 40%) the ChatBox would stay at "Loading..." state.

- In some cases when the ChatBox appears correct, when you type something in the ChatBox, the chat would not be displayed.

- I have also noticed that if one browser display I would post a chat, in some cases, on the other pages, that chat would not appear, like it does not refreshes automatically. If I do a browser refresh, it will either display the chat, or it will stay on "Loading...".

- As I wrote before, it seems that it is not stable. From the many tests I've done, it appears that in about 60% cases it will work, and 40% not.
Since I have few skins installed, I have tried this multiple times under different skins.
In one point, I've disabled most of the plugins, leaving the ChatBox to see if there is some kind of conflict with any of the plugins. Unfortunately, it was the same (random display of "Loading").

- Again, when I used to have VB 3.7.3 with ChatBox v.1, everything was working just fine, I was very happy about it. Before upgrading to 3.8.1, I have removed completely the ChatBox and its files and then I've started fresh with v.2.2 and then 2.2.1 and have this problem of "Loading..." being displayed randomly.

- Would be this issue because of the new VB version or due to the new version in ChatBox? I have no clue what to do next and honestly, I would return to version 1, if I would be sure that it will work fine under 3.8.1. Would that be feasible?
You have all the site info, so you are welcome to pop-in anytime. Thank you very much :)

I have nothing to say some days, perhaps my Users ar very :down: :mad:

cu Deta

a personal mod that add some function to my forum related to my portal of videogames :)

I want to type in bold and with FF9900 as color always on the chatbox but the color isn't avaiable as custom parameter.
Any idea how to do this?

hey

i got a problem @ installing the box! im not able to import the product :(! can sumone help me to solve this problem pls?

Hi,

I noticed that on the product page there is a link to the CMPS module. But when you got there, on the module page, it is stated to work only with version 1. Will that module be updated? If not, I see no point to be linked to it.

VBDEV, I just updated and wanted to approve a thread that was put in to moderation. When I attempted to do so, I got this error:

Any idea?

1. Is there any simple way to replace the Yahoo CSS so that you can read the error messages?

2. I am having a hard time understanding how to slap or use other "/" enabled keys. can you please provide a text example?

3. Is there an easy way to replace the "Boing" sound with something a little less irritating?

4. I love this mod... it is by far one of the best I have seen. Thanks a million, I will donate soon.

DD,

#3 is easy. put the sound you want in place of the boing, and simple rename it to the default sound. ;)

#2, Make sure you enabled the commands. It's like the 1st or 2nd option for MGC in the admin cp

#1, Use Firefox and open the error console.

I have enabled... trying to slap.....

so it would be

/slap Joesmith

or how?

Thanks for the note!

If you don't see that in the help icon it's not enabled. It should also be available in the drop down list next to each name. And if not, again, it's not enabled, or you didn't set permissions for usergroup. ;)

I have two problems. In my chat box, were you type in what you want to say. It's all in a different language. I can't figure out how to change that. Any ideas? And when I slap someone it says The user you are trying to slap doesn't exist

EDIT: I GOT THE SLAP TO WORK BUT AFTER I PUT THE COMMAND IN IT SHOWS EVERYTHING IN A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE

Read the install file again. You didn't change the default language, or you didn't change the default prompt. Default prompt is in french. YOU have to change it to whatever you want if you enable it. It's in the MGC settings.....one of those categories........ near bottom.

Same with slap. Search this thread for "translation" or "french" and it should show a post from VBDev and from me with the answers. I'm not searching 260 threads. ;)

ok i see what your talking about can you translate these

Displayed when user is limited in number of posts per day
<b>Vous ne pouvez pas envoyer de message car vous avez atteint la limite de chats en 24H de votre groupe d'utilisateurs</b>

/slap command : content of the message
{1} gifle avec violence {2}

Hence my "search for".... I don't speak french. Search forthat gifle.... it shows a thread where vbdev translates all that.

na he only translates 3 of the 6 things but i figured it out myself thanks anyways

Ok, I noticed 2 problems im having so far with the chat.

1. When I post a chat, it goes at the bottom of all the chats eventhough I said it to show newest first. I have to reload the entire page for it to show on top as it should.

2. When clicking the send button or just pressing enter with empty chatbox, it gives some error pop-up message, (Doesnt say anything, just a white pop-up).(Anyway to make it say something or remove it completely)

EDIT:

Ok problem 1 seems to be solved when I removed a sticky post(which didn't really sticky anyway)

Another problem I noticed that it sometimes just shows the refresh animation icon and doesnt refresh to anything.

I changed a setting a while back to hide the chatbox, only now that I want to use it again I cannot seem to edit it back. This effects all of the styles I have (including default), and I have tried a reinstall. Any ideas? (What settings could be disabling the chatbox? I've looked at usergroup permissions, plugin hooks, mgc settings, the suggested template / plugin hook edits, etc...)

Hum, that's odd. I'll give it a look then. I am adding this to the bug list.

Well there is no reason why the down arrow wouldn't show or would dissapear magically.

Are you sure they haven't been any other change to your forum since then ?

Does it appear but keep loading or is it just not shown at all ?

So chats doesn't get aligned in other browser than firefox when the order of the shouts is set to be newest at the top ?

Not sure as I don't the code behind my eyes but I think the <br /> is in the plugins.

What do you mean in the last part of the post ?

Well as I am not a PC user I make my best to make it works with IE but it's not handy to use a virtualizer to run windows on the Mac.

Not sure what you meant by that ?

Well that's strange.

When so were you having issues reported in javascript console ?

Do you have zlib installed on your server ?

Because it seems that the 3.8.1 has some bad issues with zlib (we experienced it on forumcoding).

This issues were making the whole ajax functionnalities not working (like quick reply leading to a full post and page refresh instead of only loading of the new chat).

The chatbox is affected by this issue and I thus have to look into it.

I think it might be related to vB version yep.

I will be investigating on it for the next release (release planned for middle of march).

Oh ok. I think the issue is with mootols, which is stranged as yahoo is quite independent. I will look into that.

You can do that by editing the color array in the functions_mgc_cb_evo.php file :)

Have you try uploading it to your server and then doing a server load of the product instead of local one ?

Well I don't know, it's up to stangger5, he's the one that do the link and develop the mode.

You should ask him.

When approving a thread ??

You should encounter that issue with the counters update of the chatbox but I don't think so for the moderation.

You have to redefine yahoo's css parameters. Do you want me to give a link to you on which parameters to redefine ?

This bug was present in versions earlier than 2.2.1.

Hello,

I am wondering if you can help me, I have installed this mod and I am trying to intergrate it into the ibproarcade.

I have followed the instruction in the readme and added in the arcade template but nothing shows at all.

I am using VB 3.8.0, just cant figure out why its doing nothing at all.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks for the help!

But I just tried a clean install (Deleted files / edits, product, then reinstalled) and the issue seems to persist (doesn't show). (2.2.1. was used)

Any ideas?

There seems to be an error when trying to import from Dream Chat. It always stops at the same chat 12000~ish and gives the following sql error:

No, it doesn't appear at all. I've set usergroups for it aswell and still nothing.

Yeah I've set them. It was working before the update just not anymore'

Exact the same problem here

MGC Chatbox Evo version ist 2.2.1, vBulletin version is 3.8.1
Which cache do i have to refresh after install?

No mine works just fine. I have tried using the "Chats display order" set as Newest First and Oldest First and they both work fine. I tested in IE, FF 3.0.6, and Safari... I'm running vb 3.8.1

Also I notice that two tables are missing from the new 2.2.1 version
isthreadwarning

Have these tables been removed from the coding altogether or are they for an option that I just don't have enabled yet? Can I just go ahead and remove these tables from my db?

I think i have the same problem as d0nbiz and OblivionMage:
I am trying to use the ChatBox 2.2.1 on a 3.8.1 vbulletin with default style and the chatbox simply doesnt show anywhere..

It's showing everywhere except in the arcade ?

You have configured both options and change the arcade file ?

Does it appear or does it only just not load chats ?

Can you check in Firefox error console and tell me if anything's wrong.

Before update to vB3.8 ? or chatbox update ?

You can't have token errors with vBulletin version 3.8.1 unless you have chatbox templates not reverted.

Is it the case ?

Yes they have been removed and the install script should have removed them.

If your chatbox doesn't display it might be a style issue or usergroup permissions not set.

I don't see any other reason.

Well yeah my fault, here is a fix for all the imports :

Cool, thanks. Will this all be updated in the next mod update release? BTW, any plans for the next update with some error fixes?

Sorry VBDev, I "approved" once another moderated thread, and got the database error again:

when i try to view any user chat i get this

how can i fix this?
thank you..

Yes sure this will be updated.

Well I am currently updating one of my other non-free mod currently and next is the chatbox update.

I think I'll be releasing a new chatbox version in one or two weeks.

Sorry for this delay but you know I am doing vBulletin during my free time so it takes a bit more time than if I was developping during the whole day.

Yeah, I have added this to the bug list already.

To fix this, open mgc_cb_evo.php file.
