how to change date to 'today', 'yesterday'

stopped working again

I'm not sure how to show the chat box in a sub forum. Help please.

Hello, how do you keep this on every page so that forum users can browse the forum and keep the chat box at the top of every page?

sum smiles show like this https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2010/07/16.jpg how can i fix that

I changed the Groups able to moderate ChatBox to 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and I changed the others to 0 also tried leaving them blank.
I've uninstalled the ChatBox and reinstalled it.
Still not able to make any post on it.
Does this ChatBox work with vBulletin Version 4.0.5?
forum

Thanks,
Roger

has anyone managed to put this chatbox in a seperate forum or sub forum alone and no where else.

e.g. i want to put this chat box in forum (id 17) only, therefor only accessed by certain members with permission

if so what do i need to do. what do i need to enter in the THIS_SCRIPT box and do i need to change any templates.

:) idiots guide please

I've installed it and it's great, but I want to know how can I add more BBCode tags so users can post pictures in their messages while chatting. Do I have to edit any templates?

Regards

This mod worked very well. However, can you help me how to show active users below the Chat Box on the FORUMHOME?

Anyone willing to help get this as a widget? I uploaded a screenshot on how far I have gotten. Please let me know and I will share what I have so far.

Issues I have
Header
Color Picker
Smilies
Chats not showing
Text size chooser

How can I change default text color from black to something else??

Thanks

Hi guys im trying to add this chat system to a section on my forum only is this poss?
Also a easy fool proof way to do it would be great.
Thanks

Doesn't work well with dark styles without css work. uninstalled..

must be 20 people including myself been asking the same question in this thraed with zero answers.

please post here if you find out how to do it

EDIT: Figured this out and unlike most i wont keep it to myself :)

I have been wanting to add this chatbox to a vip forum and no where else in the forum. The forum id for VIp on our forum is 17. so for the folowing example replace 17 with the correct forum id on your forum.

heres the idiots guide i have been requesting

1) Open the FORUMDISPLAY Template
2) add the following code

<vb:if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'forumdisplay' AND $forumid == 17">
{vb:raw vsachatbox}
</vb:if>

save


3) Go to vsa chatbox settings in admincp and enter the following settings

Show ChatBox on pages (comma separated THIS_SCRIPT locations) = $forumid == 17

Show ChatBox in templates (comma separated template names) = FORUMDISPLY

Position on page (Disable if you add ChatBox manually in templates) = Below navbar

enable cb = yes

save

some may say the above is wrong but there the settings i have and it works for me..

I'm getting this error:
Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.
If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error. www.Belizeans.com/forums

So I took the script out of FORUMDISPLAY and it seems to be working.

This mod worked very well. However, can you help me how to show active users below the Chat Box on the FORUMHOME?

Does anyone have this script working well on a dark forum? If so please contact me or reply. I think the script works well but this issue is important and it seems to be skipped over every time anyone asks.

So please, please, please--If anyone has this working with a dark style let me know. If not at some point I will fix this myself and post here but I would really rather not have to spend the time..

:) Thanks everyone,

Rich

I have it working on 4.0.5 clean install first time.

I also have it working with a very dark style and it looks superb!

I don't know, there are other guys here having the same issue. I had to remove it because the text was not coming out white and could not be read...

when typing does the default text come out white or do you have to change it for each post?? Not that you said that I have to check and make sure I am even posting in the right thread. I have tried every one of these...

I guess it could be my css...not sure

The text was by default black in the chatbox , but if users change it to a colour, the chatbox remembers that colour next time they log in. Probably easiest solution.

oh--The best solution is too have the default text changed.. Many users will go in and type first and then get ticked off because they have to change that so in reality your script isn't working correctly... Having the default text dark and the background dark is not the ideal set up...

I don't know, I haven't even looked at the xml yet and I was hoping not too but I don't believe anyone wants to offer support with this issue..

Paulvev, I am surprised you are getting e-mails left and right from members complaining about there text not showing..

The chatbox at my forum looks superb. I'm 99.9% sure the problem with the "dark styles" is a problem with the style itself, not the mod.

Is your default text white or is it having to be changed? The chat looks great, my only issue is the text being dark. I want the default text to be light is all..

So, is your default text white or are your members having to change it?

Does anyone help me how to show active users below the Chat Box on the FORUMHOME?

Default is white (for that specific style). However, if I change to a light style that I also have on that forum, the text changes to black. The only things I really changed after I installed it was removing the ability to change text colors (and general access permissions), which is why I believe the problem lies with the styles themselves, not the mod.

Does anyone know how I could include this chat script on the What's New results page?

Hi,

How do I do?

On one of my dark styles the text is to dark to read. Any way to change text color?

Sorry if this has been asked already. Is there a way to get this to work in a pop up window??

It gets real weird if you post a very (VERY) large photo inside the IMG tags.

The photo is shown, even if it is 3000 pixels wide.

Can this be modified somehow?

I'm not greatly experienced with this product but I'm pretty sure it was not meant to place images in. It's a shout box.

It is at my forums. It's a photography forum...

And the IMG tag works fine, only thing is it gets real weird for *large* photo's, so I'd like to restrict photo's to, say, 400x400 pixels when putting [img] tags in the chatbox.

But I have disabled the IMG tag in Chat admin settings for now.

My users are realy enjoying the chat / shoutbox a lot!

It would be very nice if it were possible to have 'channels', so that one would be able to have 'chat-channels' for certain usergroups, that others cannot see.

But it is very very nice as it is already, a big thank you for the author!

Please steer me in the right direction to being able to change the background color/image.... where would I find this in the code?

How do I put the chatbox on the forum sidebar?
