I disable it, the typewrite effect.... the order of new shouts...sometime it no load...sometime yes... thanks but no thanks.

If you want to support is good otherwise seek another chat, is the second time I put the same message. Thanks

Nice feature, very easily installed.

Thanks for your work!! :up: :up:

This mod severely RAPES CPU usage / mysql Usage for me. Anyone else get this? I got around 70-100 users online and this thing is lagging like crazy!

Its worked fine for me on vb 4.1 buth i have disabled it en uninstalled.

Its shows the new treaths subjects from the forum directory for staff only.

Thnx for this chatbox that i have used.

Go the the Mod's Settings in Admin CP.
You can specify which forums NOT to display.

:)

BUG REPORT!!!!

After I enable this addon, I cant use the switch Editor Button when creating or editing Articles.

In the forum and comments it still works tho.

Disabling this Plugin, and I can use the button!

Now that's interesting. I had noticed the advanced editor not working but had sort of assumed it was another 401 bug.

How odd GCBOS doesnt touch anything like that...
Update: Tested on localhost works fine for me if the text editor is showing the raw tags just highlight them to worked for me.

Just one last thing to fix in RC5 (i hate javascript) and i shall release it if any one can help with it (show the notice container only on certain events please pm me).

Update:
Im currently working on a surprise feature, which might push back RC5 for a day or so. I have the html etc done its just the backend that needs doing now!

Anyway to get some type of "Time out" system in place? Or maybe as just an option I can turn on?

People sit in my shout box all night and they show up as on the forums for the entire time.. On vb3x I had a chat box that would time out after a set time and would blank out the box and advise the users they need to refresh the box (via a small button on the chat box) to continue to see chat's. That's about the only thing I miss from my old system. I love the live update of the chat in real time that's really nice ;)

Erm i may add it to 0.7 at some point.

Anyway im still messing with this mystery feature :P and ofc the js for it *sigh*

Hey,

I am a bit of a noob to VB, just migrating from PHPBB. Installed this shoutbox and I really like it so far.

My question might be trivial, though I did use the search function prior to posting... so please.. no flaming haha.

Just want to know if there is a way to set the default size of the shoutbox? Or even to have it default to minimized? I see you can modify that once it is loaded, but I would prefer it to be slightly smaller to start unless the user wants to make it bigger.

Thoughts?

EDIT: Ok, didn't realize it put in a GCBOS template entry. Sorry for the post haha!

I'm liking it...

Two things I've noticed:

- the inability for the 'Unregistered' user group to see text posted in the shoutbox (regardless of the permissions set on the group itself). So not sure if there is another permission somewhere overriding it when it goes to get the posted text...

- i'm using bbpixel (so not standard) and joomla - but if I log into an admin user with an expired password notice, that notice seems to draw inside the shoutbox before it is replaced with the shoutbox text..

I'm seeing a lot of this error in my php logs


just a quick FYI

Yeah i need to recode the command system to not use references but i have no motivation for it since my PHP 5.3.1 build fully supports it ;P

Anyway the amount of resources this thing takes up can be reduced MyChemicalSelf? It lags horribly with 60+ users online my forum, but love all the commands, but its just too slow and laggy and hogs up too much resources or something

What are your server specs?

The demo forum (www.otaku-studios.com) has users online and there is no lag.

Oh im trialing RC5 on the demo boards at the moment with the surprise removed fixed an annoying bug :) i shall release it in a minute or two if all is still working.

A major update "0.7.0 RC5" has been released this contains many fixes and new features.

The changelog doesn't show any updates since RC1, so I'm wondering what's new?

The changes are in the update email and should be on the second post i forgot to update the changelog file since this isnt a 'gold' release (0.7 final)

Today I upgraded to php 5.2.12 and the chat no longer appears in the chat box. I see the "Loading.." but after that I just get a blank screen I'm on RC5 also.

When I go back to 5.2.11 everything works like normal.


The text i typed into the box when I was on 5.2.12 shows up in the window on 5.2.11 so its accepting the input but just not displaying anything on php 5.2.12.


EDIT: Never mind its working (luz)

Pretty good server (Dedicated), and this site im running off of is the only site that utilizes any mySQL db, etc:

Generic 1024 MB
Generic 1024 MB
Dell Single socket 1067FSB - Quad Core Capable
Western Digital 250GB:SATA:7200RPM
Unknown Onboard
Intel 2.13 GHz 1066FSB - Kentsfield

Is there any way to disable topic reply notifications?

Does this update resolve the messages displaying slowly, which you mentioned in your changelog was resolved in RC1 but never showed up fixed in RC2?

I don't like the scrolling effect.

This has been FIXED with the latest version of RC5




NEW BUG FOUND.

Unregistered / Not Logged in users are unable to send messages, even when the permission has been set to YES under usergroups.

Sort of. In Options deselect "Alert on new topic". However, PM alerts will still be shown.

Hello !

When i give an infration to user, i see this error :

How can i fix it :( Please help me ?

The infraction error is supposed to have been fixed in RC5. Please verify that is the version you are using.

When i upgrade to GCBOS RC5, i can't type Vietnamese in chatbox :(

My encoding is utf-8, i change ISO-8859-1 to utf-8 but not effect.

Ya the new reply alert option is really spammy on the other hand I like to see when people post new topics. A switch to turn off the reply notification but keep the new topic notification wold be nice.

I wish it did. Everyone on my site seems to dislike how it displays like that.

Thanks for the update, but I really wish to see these 2 features:

1), Archive/Log system which can be set per usergroup.
2), Direct bottom chat (display latest chats instantly), so the scrolling effect won't show.

German Umlauts like äöü will not work with RC5.

Once i have a bug fixed (editing posts showing as a reply) i will consider working on an archive.

All shouts are displayed instantly as they are wrapped with instant tags, not the best solution but meh ill sort it properly eventually.


About umlauts etc yeah not sure why its propbably because of the charset im using woops ill sort it for the gold release (i force the chat to use utf8 ^.^)

Please update to RC5 it has been fixed in the private build for a while. (silly bug)

How odd with RC5 on the demo site we are on older hardware if i remember right and we do just fine currently i will look into adding an idle system

Would it be possible to make the chatbox "active" when your screen is seeing the chatbox? To prevent usage if the person is just browsing the page itself, not looking at the chat box.

I dont know if this is concerning but I used this plug in on my website and a few days later my host blocked my whole site because there is a leak in GCBOS.php file please help me or tell me how to fix it .

Instead of Cyrillic characters (UTF-8) in RC5 displayed characters from the Latin set. I had to return to the RC2. :(

This is why there has to be an idle timeout option. Once 20-30 people sit on the page and start using it as a chatroom, any shared server is in danger of being suspended.

Of course, I have no idea if that was your problem because you've given us zero details. I know there's nothing terribly wrong with this mod because the last few days during this huge blizzard my community has been hopping and I've been monitoring our shared server loads and they're fine with as many as 80 on (but not all sitting in the chatbox!).

Okay, thanks. It would be nice to have a seperate option, though. ;)

Thanks for everything so far! :)
