I also have 3.6.8 and it's working great! I've had no complaints about it what so ever

What does the "MP" (as an alternative to "PM") actually stand for? Sorry if this was already asked.

Also, as an idea, if not already mentioned, perhaps you could make a message appear whenever you get a PM in the chatbox. For example, if you're viewing a different channel, a message could show up, much like if someone had posted something, that says something along the lines of "[date/time] ________ sent you a message. Check your PM channel to view it". I'm only suggesting this because you can't really notice if someone sends you a message unless you're checking the channel every-so-often.

I didn't face any major problem.
And some minors are corrected, solved simply.

Anyway, I'd love to see it implemented.

This would be a bit too hard for the server I think IMO.

This is a very constructive remark ... Among more than 500 people you're are the only one who's nervously sending such post ...

Before saying that it doesn't work at all maybe you should think of the fact that you might have installed it wrongly ...

MP is the french translation of PM : Message priv? <=> Private Message

Yes this is planned check out the todo list :)

What refresh rate have you put for the chatbox ?

Have you activated team message warning system and inactive mode ?



No spanish phrases are up to date (unless I forgot to put the uptodate version :D).

Regarding the color, there is not change between two dates, it's the same color for all the date in the chatbox.

Did you put the css thing in the right place ?



To do so, you have to follow the howto at the end of the readme file (about style issue).

This is not really a style issue but as both modifications are using replacements to appear after the navbar, the first called will be the first under the navbar. And as you can't manage the order of the plugin calls you have no way of choosing which one will be the first.

So the only thing to is following the little howto to put it under the navbar in your forumhome template :)

Thanks that worked now one more question I have the full chat window button enabled on my chat but when you roll over the button https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/ "Ouvrir la chatbox en pleine page" where can i edit that so it says it in English?

Thank You,
REDTAZ

Hi VBDev,

I'm experiencing a problem and wanted to give you some feedback so you can perhaps fix this in the next version.

I wanted the Chatbox to appear on every page of my forum so on the option Display on defined pages above the navbar I selected YES.

This worked, and placed the Chatbox on the pages were it was not appearing before (for example, on the "New Posts" page).

HOWEVER, on these new pages (such as "New Posts"), the Chatbox appears farther below than in the default pages. In fact, on the new pages, the space between the Chatbox and the NavBar doubled from 16 pixels to 32 pixels.

In the index page, threads, and posts it had 16 pixels of spacing, and on every other page it has 32 pixels of spacing. So when browsing the forum, the Chatbox jumps from one position to the other depending on what page you are on, instead of always staying in the same position.

To give you a better idea of what I'm talking about, I took screenshots so you can see the Chatbox on the index page (with the default 16 pixels of spacing) and on the "New Posts" page (with 32 pixels of spacing). I also took a screenshot of my Chatbox settings so you know what they are:

Thank you very much for your time, other than that the Chatbox is working great so far!

Cheers,
Andres

I think it a phrase I forgot to put in the english xml language file or an hardcoded one :(

Have a look in the mgc_chatbox_editor template and check if it's a phrase or an hardcoded text.

If it's a phrase you will be able to modify it by editing the phrase in your language manager otherwise directly in the template if it's hardcoded.

Hum Yes really strange.

Perhaps those page have a defined height or particular margin which leads to that difference. But they are mainly generic so I don't see why it would act like that.

By the way such bug might be a hassle to debug :eek:

I think it's because you made modifications to the mgc_chatbox template in the previous version and you haven't reverted it for the new version installation.

Revert the template and you'll see everything will be fine :)
