If someone makes a long 3 line chat, the screen will only drop down to show the first line and you have to scroll to see the remaining 2 lines.

Having it set to bring in the new chats from the top down works fantastic but from the bottom up is when this issue is showing up.

Again if no on else is experiencing this, it has to be something on my end. I just have no clue as to what it may be? Now to be honest, I didn't notice this until a I was running the 1.2 version for a couple of days. I didn't install any new mods in that time and last night I deleted the chatbox entirely, reuploaded all the files, reverted the templates and reuploaded the products. No difference was seen.

Hi,

This mod is simply awesome and I have installed the chatbox on one site with administrators having permission right now. However, I cannot figure out how to change the width of the box. The width is fixed and needs to be a percentage because the box overflows to the right in some resolutions. The admincp options show options for height.

Maybe I am missing something?

Thank you for your help !

Wait wait, If I do understand, I don't manage the scrollbar at all when sending chats so this is a normal functionning !

I didn't understand your problem before, but now I see what ya mean. In fact this is an issue I plan to look at in the next version (it's in the todo list ;))

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

The width of the chatbox is still a percentage. The problem with smaller resolution might come from the fact that bbcode line tooks a lots of place.

What was the resolution in which you experienced that ? Coz I have 1680x1050 on this computer so I won't experience that ;)

Could you make a screen with all parts of the chatbox expanded plz ?

Thank you for the very fast reply !

Attached is a screenshot. Simply change the size of the browser window and you'll see that the chatbox overflows the rest of the site. The site main table width in StyleVars is 85%.

Update: It is indeed the width size of the field input box. I changed this to 35 and now this matches the 728 width of the banner ad.

Just installed and I have to say, a few hitches aside, this is pretty awesome.

The only suggestion I'd make is that it would be nice to see who's in the chat room if the chat room is configured to be open in it's own page as well.

I'm using the chatroom in it's own window /forums/mgc_chatbox.php?do=view_chatbox#top to help keep the forums from looking wayyyy too cluttered and scroll heavy. Is there a way to broadcast who's online from this other page?

Also, adding who's in chat to the actual chat window would prolly not be a bad idea.

Lastly, I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed this but if you click a smiley when in chat, you browser window returns to the top for whatever reason. This makes it necessary to keep the smiley bar above the chat window otherwise the window repositioning becomes tiresome.

These are small issues so I wouldn't voice them as complaints, just observations by a new user.

Yup, I know. I'll try to make the buttons smaller in the next version so that you could have larger input fields :)

This is already in the todo list ;)

You mean the whole who's online of the forum ? If so, my answer for that one would be no coz this would add to much code and it's not a necessary option in my opinion.

Yup also in the todo list, this is an issue I'll look at :)

I cannot wait until v1.3 is released! This shoutbox looks amazing.

Well done !!!

Installed and works like a dream.

Voted for MOTM

**edit** The Team Channel doesn't seem to work. I can see it abd write to it, but it is not displayed in the chat window, although you can see it in the archives. Any ideas anyone??

Hello everyone, just installed this mod, it's really nice and powerful... but i'm having some troubles with my style... it seems a class is affecting the chat box, maybe someone has had the same problem.

I'd appretiate some advice. :p *attached image*

BTW, in the default style everything looks fine, the message is aligned with the post time.

What do you mean exactly ? You can see the team icon channel ? And when you click on it you can chat but chats are not shown ??

You mean the problem of the smiley being far from the username ?

Do you have particular css options in your alt1 and alt2 classes ?
