I think you uploaded the files in the wrong dir, or imported shit wrong. Reinstall the chat from the admincp. Or can't you login to that? If not, use the tools.php in the Vbulletin zip and reset ur shit.

It's a usergroup setting from the looks of it. I hope you have a backup ;)

picamajstori 04-06-2009 02:10 PM

Can`t access the adminCP. I had one other shoutbox installed before and it worked fine.
About the vbulletin zip. What will it do and how do i use it? I have an active forum with over 500 members and havent done a backup in months.

I seriously think you didn't follow the install, upgrade right. You might have to edit the sql table.

Did you check it with phpmyadmin?

picamajstori 04-06-2009 03:26 PM

I`ve only done these 3 things.

Quote:

# Upload the content of the Files folder in your forum root.
# Upload the content of the Images in each of your forum styles directories.
# Log into the admin control panel of your forum and import the product located in the Product folder.
Maybe I uploaded it to wrong location? For example the content of file folder has admincp folder and a mgc_cb_evo.php file. So I copied the mgc_cp_evo.php to my admincp folder. I didnt just drag the Files folder to the root.

For the images, same thing. It contains the folder misc and I copied the contents of that folder to my images folder.

What could I have done wrong? I dont know how to edit the sql table nor how to check it with phpmyadmin.

Please help!

Open the chat zip. Extract it. Find every file on the server that's in the zip, delete them. Reupload the chat. You can fix most of it in ftp. If it's hosted somewhere, plesk or cpanel should have phpmyadmin.

Ranger187 04-06-2009 05:35 PM

If you still can't get it to work, I might be able to help you look at it later. I've been up for 2 days straight and I just got done working. So nappy time! ;)

picamajstori 04-06-2009 05:52 PM

Thanx for your help! I only got it to show the forum but once I try to log in I get the error again.
Maybe it`s due to a reason I had another shoutbox working while trying to install a new one? :confused:

VBDev 04-06-2009 10:50 PM

Nope should work.

You error is missing some part, please copy it enteriely

<font color="Red">* Chatbox updated to 2.3.2</font>

lille L 04-07-2009 07:08 AM

I still cant make this work :(
I run 3.8.1 and the chatbox is just loading... I have to go to the archive to see the new messages.. the chat window is empty..

TimberFloorAu 04-07-2009 08:26 AM

OK.

Not been happy with the new 3.8 version since we installed it ( no offence VBdev )

So uninstalled.

Then installed our older version. [vB3.6.x-vB3.7.x]MGC_Chatbox_Evo_0.4.0]

This then threw up lots of mysql erros, after reloading language file. And then doing permissions in Usergroups.

Now we cannot even revert to this version.

Is all hope lost ??

Any suggestions please

Markos 04-07-2009 09:34 AM

ive installed the new update seems fine thanks VBDev

RedDevil 04-07-2009 09:51 AM

Have you ensured javascript files were uploaded correctly ?

How is your javascript loading set in chatbox options (local or YUI server) ?

Do you see any error in the error console on Firefox ?

Well I don't handle vBA as stangger5 mod is supposed to work so haven't had a look. You should ask him.

I've 2 styles. One is normal & the another one is tab version. In the tabbed style if I choose ChatBox below forums then it won't display. Then I did edit the Chatbox display on forumhome plugin. Replaced
Code:

          $find = '$forumhome_markread_script';
          $brb = ' <br />';
          $bra = ' ';

With
Code:

          $find = '<!-- what\'s going on box -->';
          $brb = ' ';
          $bra = ' <br />';

Having one problem though! There is extra space on the top of the chatbox. Any help? Check the attachment!

VBDev 04-07-2009 12:12 PM

Perhaps that extra space comes from your forumhome template ?

Icy 04-07-2009 12:43 PM

Yah and unfortunately that one comes with the default vBulletin template! I've just noticed vBulletin.com has the same extra space :p

HTML Code:

<!-- /main -->

<br />
$ad_location[ad_forumhome_afterforums]
<br />

<!-- what's going on box -->

I have put the uptodate translation of the chatbox in german, you have used it ?

In that case, have you tried with english langauge ? Perhaps the issue is on that side.

Yes, the german language is the problem! No errors with the english language.

Apologies.

I thought I had deleted my post.

That last quote, was the beginning of a post containing huge array of database errors. Which crashed the forum. We got it fixed, please disregard that last message.

Please can you confirm, the last good working version of the chat prior to vb3.8 version.

So that we may download and start over.

I am having major refresh issues with the 2.3.2 version. Most of the time the refresh stops working after a minute or two, or doesn't work at all. (It IS enabled!)

I upgraded from 2.2.0 (I also made sure to run the upgrade script as well.)

I've also switched back and forth between running the YUI direct from yahoo and from the server, but still having the chat get stuck on the "Loading..." screen or stuck on the chat screen without refreshing.

yotsume 04-07-2009 08:22 PM

Is there a way to get the chatbox to display on the vbBlogs homepage and members blogs?

princeedward 04-07-2009 08:37 PM

hi....really can't make this chatbox to my site vB3.6.8. also the language can't upload it...due to wrong version....can anyone help me on this please...

:(

yotsume 04-07-2009 08:45 PM

Doesn't the directions say to check the ignore language version when you import the language xml... HINT HINT I think you missed something in the directions.

kronnos 04-07-2009 09:24 PM

Hey,

Just installed the new version on 3.8.2 and so far everything is fine except the few questions I have.

1- Everytime I get an error or other message from the chatbox, I can't see it untill I highlight it.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

And here is after highlight...
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

So how do i change the text color so its black or something.

2- I wanted a custom location to put the chat on the forumhome so I did the following change:

From:
Code:

          $find = '$forumhome_markread_script';
          $brb = ' <br />';
          $bra = ' ';

TO:
Code:

          $find = '<!-- End top category table setup -->';
I deleted $brb = ' <br />'; AND $bra = ' '; because I figured the "$brb = ' <br />';" is what gave me the extra space above the chatbox and "$bra = ' ';" removed the 5% spacer I had on my fluid template and made it full screen. I don't know why or what it was supposed to do in the first place. So is it ok that i removed those 2 lines?

Also, is it ok i changed the plugin instead of just pasting the custom code in any location i wanted to? Does this mean it will add an extra query to the database since this new location its looking for is not cached?

3- In the top row of the chatbox, it shows the chatbox name centered. How can I make it so its aligned to the left?

4- The page loads really quick, as usual, but when it reaches the place with the chatbox location, it kinda stops to think for a few seconds. i also noticed this on Forumcoding site as well. Is this normal, will there be a way to reduce that load time, Or is that just the way it is?


BTW, I own the BF version, if that makes any difference in the changes i would need to make for above changes.

Thanks

jalmz 04-08-2009 12:06 AM

im having problem with the arcade. the mgc chat box is gone.

Prettyeyes4you 04-08-2009 12:48 AM

We have been v2.3.0 with vb 3.8.1 and everything is working fairly well. We have added some stuff mentioned here as causing problems like an arcade but so far so good.

One thing we found early on was having chat open in multiple pages was a drag on our resources. Perhaps those having problems might look to that as a source of their troubles

Members like the command functions, specially the me and slap,

My admins like the announcement commands

Would it also be possible to add a "you" command? kinda miss that one

Thanks

Well I don't remember coz there is no real vB3.8 version you know. Chatbox is compatible with both versions from vB3.6 to vB3.8.

What's wrong for you with the last releases ?

I think you might try something like 2.0.0 or kinda like.

I think you can as chatbox can be displayed in any vBulletin page, you just have to configure the location options in the chatbox settings.

:(

As stated in the readme you have to select "Ignore language version" when importing the language file.

"really can't make this chatbox to my site" <= how can I help you if you don't give any details ?

Edit the mgc_cb_evo template. But becareful, don't forget to revert the template at each upgrade or you'll have "hey it's not working issues" ;)

I think it's due to javascript loading, I have to work on that in next releases coz it's bearly annoying I must admit.
