Yes I think it should.

By creating channels through the channel management system :)

Channels are linked to a single command.

So permissions for a channel = permissions for a command.

But what kind of message ?

I'll ;)

a customized msg...
its very similar to irc thing... i think it would be a popular feature if u add it.
thats 2 feature request by the way

Great Improvements!! :up:

One Question, Perhaps a Bug: I've Activated the Options "Activate the full page mode chatbox", and "Full page mode chatbox in a new windows", but NO Dropdown Menu Option appears in the Menu Bar of the Forums!! :confused: :(

(In previous Versions appeared with Two Options, one to See the Chatbox in Full Page, and the Other to See the Messages History)!! :confused: :(

Do I need to Manually Introduce the Code in the "Navbar" Template?? (Could you Please Provide us the Code??)

I checked the Plugins, and in none of them Appears the Code "mgc_cb_evo.php?do=view_chatbox", so that this Code would be Introduced in Certain Place of the "Navbar", so I guess that some Manual Template Edit is necessary!! :confused: :(

I checked the Previous Version of this Mod, ans I found that You Specified the Following Template Edit, but a similar Code don't Appear in the Manual, so would be Nice that You Include it in the Zip File:

I Appreciate Your Help!! :rolleyes:

My Best Regards!! ;)

:)

Yes but I still haven't understood your request :D

Indeed I removed it coz actually there is no more navbar link.

But you can still add one if you want, I'll try to add it if I have time in the next release readme :)

well
for example when im afk from the forum i want the script to leave a auto msg from me every 1 hour on the shoutbox. example.

maidos> theres a big news going on please click here,this msg has been generated by auto msg

hope u get my point

and for fun like on irc if ppl make special commands like

/soup

a msg will come from me and answer that command

Auto message is not that easy but feasible but the soup thing, what does it answer ? I don't understand the /soup command.

I am not a mirc user.

well soup was just an example. what i wish for is everyone to get their own customized commands for the shoutbox. when they enter that commands on the sshoutbox an auto msg should appear ..

Still don't get you, you are not very precise, you speak from one thing and then another ...

Can you please make a clear and detailled description plz !

I'll try to Create my Own Version of it meanwhile, but is 100% necessary because that's the way the Users Access the Full Page Mode, and also the way to Justify the Option of "Full page mode chatbox in a new windows" that is the "target="_blank"" with an If Conditional pointed to that Option of your Mod!! :rolleyes:

Could you Please Provide me the name of the Var Options for the Following Vars, for me to Create it and I'll share it here, please:

-1- "Full page mode chatbox in a new windows"

-2- "Activate the full page mode chatbox"

-3- The Equivalent of EVO for $vboptions[mgc_chatbox]

-4- The Equivalent of EVO for $chatbox_permission

Those are the Ones I need to Create the Conditionals of the Navbar Links similar to the ones You Used in your Previous Version of the Mod (I Copy/Pasted that Code in my Last Message)!! ;)

Please help me with those Variable Names, VBDev, and I'll have the Code in Very Short Time. I know it'll be Useful for many Users of your Mod!! ;)

My Best Regards!! ;)

:)

-1- "Full page mode chatbox in a new windows"

mgc_cb_evo_fullmode_link_topopup

-2- "Activate the full page mode chatbox"

mgc_cb_evo_fullmode_active

-3- The Equivalent of EVO for $vboptions[mgc_chatbox]

mgc_cb_evo_title

-4- The Equivalent of EVO for $chatbox_permission

No equivalent, sorry.

I think that this Last One correspond to the Checking of the Usergroup Permissions to See/Use the Chatbox, there should be a Variable for that!! :rolleyes: :confused:

I need that Variable to Condition the Display or Not Display of the Options in the Navbar.

-1- Could you Please Provide me the name of the Variable that Checks the Permissions of the Usergroups to See the Chatbox, Please VBDev!! ;)

Are You Sure about This One?? Remember that is the One inside $vboptions[]

The One I need is the One that Indicates that the ChatBox Mod is Activated in the Forums (the one I selects with the Yes/No Option).

-2- Could you Please Also Provide me the name of the Variable that Checks is the ChatBox is Activated, Please VBDev!! ;)

I'll also Use that other Variable to Condition the Display or Not Display of the Options in the Navbar.

My Best Regards!! ;)

:)

Well, Clément... the 1st message bug is gone, but still the message from "Message to display in the input field on page load" isn't showing up at all...

Any clues?

this is very well done. easy to use and looks awesome!!!

Guided by some Variables I Found in the Plugins and in the Templates I'd like to Share this First Aproach for what Could be the Navbar Links, so that You can Use it and also Help me Complemment it:

Step 1

In template "Navbar".

Search for:

Below Add:

Step 2

In the Same Template "Navbar".

Search For:

Below Add:

That's it.

The Second Step is the Popup Menu, and the First Step is the Position of the Popuop Menu in the Navbar.

:confused: I'd Appreciate VBDev if you can Tell me the Name of the usergroup Variable that Tells me if that Usergroup Can SEE the Chatbox, to Add it as a Second Option to the Conditionals: :confused:

I've tried with $bbuserinfo[mgc_cb_evo_show], but I think is wrong because when I disable the Options for a Usergroup nothing Happens, or Perhaps I'm Using the Variable Wrong?? Please Tell me to make it work!! :confused: :(

My Best Regards!! ;)

:)

This is based on usergroup permissions so I think you haven't set that usergroup permission :)

You can find the permissions names in the can_see_mgc_cb_evo function located in the includes/functions_mgc_cb_evo.php file :)

tnx 4 update!!

i would like to request a new optional feature;
Display current server time, with option if it should take the user's location into account and display local time, or truelly the server's timezone time.

I would have use for such feature, and due to the ajax refresh, the time is updated everytime the ajax refreshes, so pretty up2date ;)

Tnx for consideration

So If I do well understand, you would like the possibility to show servertime or user local time that's right ?

A single option that would toggle between both modes.

Man you are on fire! Love the sticky feature! It's awesome.

I'm working on those docs, should be ready very soon :)

Thank you for the update Dev. I see in the "Chats sending and formatting" options where you added the smiley retrieval by admin cp's order option that i requested. I'm not sure if it is pointing to a different directory than my smilies or if it just plain isnt properly working but for some reason it does not appear to be properly placing my smiley selection.

I also have the smiley categories mod installed on my forums, i'm not sure if this is causing some sort of conflict. Below is a link to the smiley categories mod.

And:

Entrez votre chat >>

Please please use english as standard, people from norway, greek, italia, russia, netherlands and so on keep reporting your french language as bug and by the way, your french language is not UTF-8 ..

Je compris francais, parce que j'ai apris francais a l'ecole, but 99 % of the forumusers doesnt understand french and thats why I get bugreports about your chatbox en masses .. :-/

there is a problem with the ajax refresh of the shouts when the dropdown menu is selected during a refresh.

When someone selects the drop down menu (and the shouts are refreshing, the user must refresh the entire page before they can select the drop down menu again) (tested with the chatbox refresh rate at 3 seconds)

No work around to this so far.

Must be re-written. (no matter what time you have the refresh period set to, anytime during the refresh period, the drop down menu will cease to function until the entire page is refreshed)
VbDev pm and i will give you the link to the site, and you can evaluate for your self)

Also the delete command does not work within the shouts archive, the usergroup that is designated with the permission must select the checkbox and delete the shout that way, it would be advised that the option from the drop down menu be removed when in the shouts archive.

i have turned off automatic refresh has been disabled until this can be fixed

also the userprompt is in french, and i aint going changing more phrases.

About your problems, do you have a link to your forum please with a test account so that I can see that ?

About the Entrez votre chat >>, I don't see the problem with it as its an option.

The problem is not a question of standard, I have decided to develop the mod in french language by default as it's my mother tongue.

The problem is that many users don't "think" when they install a mod. They don't go through all options or else. And you know a good admin should to ensure good configuration of his forum.

I don't understand your point with utf-8 ? Coz english language is not utf-8 either in vBulletin.

About the options, this is due to a missing feature in the archive js file I didn't thought at that ooops sorry :)

Should have tested dropdown in archives...

About the refresh thing, this is something I didn't encountered as my refresh rate was higher than that but I'll look at that.

Thanks for your bug reports this help me making it the most complete as possible.

See my last post + changelog.

Since 0.2.0, prompt message text is an option :)

My bad! Now it's okay!

But i'm receiving this DB error by email:

Another issue, when a user doesn't have all required profile fields filled (for example, when a required field is created after his registration) the chatbox just shows empty, with no messages anda no options, and no indication of what is wrong. The user only knows that he have a problem with required fields when he tries to read a post/thread or do another action in forum. After that, when he fills the required fields, the chatbox shows correctly.
But i can't reproduce it. I've logged in as a regular user and tried to stick a message, but nothing happened, not even a db error..

Have you installed the updated product ? It seems not as the sticky field shall have been created upon upgrade.

I think it's because the message the user see when going into posts or thread is trying to appear in the chatbox but that can't be displayed as it's not a chat :D

Do you really think it has an interest to be handled coz I think it would add sql queries ?

the problem with the refresh is, that you have the onmousereturn="" Event, this would generally get refreshed just as much as the document it is based on, i am going to change them to onclick, that away at least when the refresh occurs, i can always use the onclick event instead.

in the
mgc_cb_evo_chatbit_menu template
<tr>
<td class="vbmenu_option" onclick="return hilite_chat_menu_item(this);" onclick="return unhilite_chat_menu_item(this);"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$user[userid]" rel="nofollow"><phrase 1="$user[raw_username]">$vbphrase[mgc_cb_evo_view_member_profile]</phrase></a></td>
</tr>

The event's must be changed to onclick, with this, it prevents the drop down menu from stop functioning when the refresh period happens during the viewing of the drop down menu.

Yeah, i've installed all following the instructions within the zip file. Uninstalled all commands, installed and overwrite the product, language, installed the command manager and installed all commands.

Perhaps the errors occurred during the new product installation. I'll keep an eye on the database to see if the error occurs again.


In my opinion it's a good feature to add, maybe put as an option on admincp to turn it on or off... :)

You have to onclick events, this won't work ;).

Yes I should change that certainly, I already did change it for it work on Safari.

Yes that's certainly the time between file upload and product import ;)

About the feature, I'll see what I can do.

I noticed this now.

Have you any idea when you can resolve this?

another problem, the chat box is pixel dependent, the CSS should be made with a percentage value and not px value.

This makes accessibility a major problem for lower resolutions.

You have to put a condition in then onclickevent. with more code than that.

Perhaps making a small javascript function to make it clean.

For the height of the chatbox ?

No, the width.

people on wide screen enabled monitors 1024x768

and when i set my own resolution to that display, the chatbox does not remend its self to the screen resolution.

what is the CSS id/class for the chatbox, maybe additional CSS to take control of this

the problem is with the allowance of letting people to change the size of the text input field,

you should amend the total percentage of the chatbox block if this is increased or decreased, that is if you are using percentages.

Yeah, right!
But i'm still having problems with stick messages, an ordinary user cannot stick a shout even with the option available in the side menu... it shows like the message was fixed but nothing happens.

Thanks. :up:

Sorry..... but, what i shell do, that the Chatbox displayed in "online.php"?

Im searching, but found nothing :(

And ... nice work again ;)

i ban a user in the chat box, but they can still use the shout box

yet the person banned gets a pm saying they are banned

and the ban /show shows that person as been banned!

yest another bug?

/ban on Admiral

when i try it this way i get the error

Error! The command entered is not valid syntax

another bug, when you decide to create a channel, and enter the image name ( your directions DO not tell people to enter any directory names, just the image name!) when you do this, the image does not appear just the ALT="private message" on the broken img scr="" parameter in the a href tag.

and i noticed that when you send a private message to a user it comes up on the rugular chat as FROM username (but does not be seen by regular members, maybe this is due to a channel not been created)

I would advise you VBdev to re-apply this modification as BETA, as it has a long way to go.

And no negativity on your side, it would have been more professional if you were to de-bug this script within a private beta testing area, rather than publicly.

i have problems to install this =(

i have Vb 3.7 b5 and php 5 = error =(
