I found what's causing the bug, when this mod is enabled https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=245240 the box will not float.

We will make a note of that so others can avoid having that problem, as that mod must have some style issue in it to explain the odd behaviour being observed.

I have a problem, the number of online friends sometimes look like this:
1Friend Online
instead of
1 Friend Online

any fix for it?

We will take a look at that and get that fixed, looks like we just missed a space when we setup all the phrases.

installed on 4.1.0 PL2 and does not show on FF or IE, disabled hooks then re enable, still no dice. re upped files and re installed xml's and still does not show up. Fixed usergroups so Admins can use it. suggestions please? thanks

When you disabled hooks did you disabled all the hooks but the chat ones? As that is the only way to see if another mod is stepping on the chat. As there hasn't been a change I can think of in vbulletin that would have created that issue.

When my connection timesout i'm getting Error: please reload error, i think that this box should keep reloading it self till it catches the connection again, what you think? :)

Please release a vb3 version as well.

so admin user group excluded in free version?

You have to turn the setting on for each usergroup in the usergroup editor.
