I think I got your thing figured out. Give me a minute to confirm first.

Alright, I was thinking about a solution to your above problem aswell; atleast half of it.


First you need to create a custom navbar link.

To do this, log into your admin panel

Go to style Manager, and select edit in the dropdown menu next to the style you would like to edit, and hit go.

Then expand the navigation/breadcrumb template.

Edit the Navbar template.

Find the Navbar links, most templates mark the beggining of navbar links with some form of comment.

Place this in the order you want it to showup on the navbar (i.e. if you want it to show up before the QuickLinks link, place it above the code for quicklinks)

The url of your chatbox should be http://yourdomain/misc.php?do=cchatbox
(assuming this is the location of the forum, ie it isnt in a subdomain)


If you want to make the chatbox "not appear" anywhere on your forums, then place something that isnt recognized in this option (locted: admincp > vbulleti options> cyb - chatbox)

I placed quite a few things there in an attempt to make it display on a specific forum. When it didn't recognize it, it simply did not display the chatbox. I'm not sure if this is the most orthodox way, but it works.


I'm not sure if all of this is 100% accurate. Its the best help I can offer.

Good luck

If you set conditional to have the chatbox to display, you should be able to do it. I'm not sure the conditional to make it only display chatbox only on forumid=8

This is pretty much how I did to make it selectable by option:

<if condition="($vbulletin->userinfo['field9'] == 'Yes')">$cybchatbox <br /></if>

where field ID = is the ID of the custom userfield.

Hey!

What would be the easiest way to disable the color option so the menu doesn't appear?

can has request? Can you add a "active users" tab.

Cyb,

If I were to treat people as you do I'd be embarrassed with myself.

Try answering questions to your own damn scripts every now and again!!!

I wouldn't mind if I was new to this and didn't research my query in the forums but I have, and you haven't provided any kind of answer!

YOUR MODS HAVE MAJOR BUGS.... FIX THE LOADING ISSUE!!!!

He has every right not to support his modifications. If that IS the case, though, please change this:

To this:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2011/01/24.gifNot Supported

I know I've been waiting over 12 days now for an answer and haven't gotten any help. Would be nice to get some help if you're still supporting this. If not, please change the status. Thanks.

WOW, thanks for this wonderful product!

Feel free to uninstall it. Thank You :)

Cybernetec, I am hoping I can take a slightly different tack here!

I too am suffering from the bizarre "Loading..." issue and have been working on how to fathom it let alone fix it for a while now. It seems that my users with MSIE on either XP or Vista have been experiencing it. I can confirm it with MSIE and XP (my only Win test bed). FireFox works on Windows as members who have missed chat have found by installing it.

This points to it being an implementation of AJAX/Java/html in MSIE that has changed only just very recently>>?? A member sent me this note:
Could it be one of the MS updates recently delivered? Could it be an AJAX related problem to the Java update?

I cannot make any sense of the alert that MSIE states "Error on page." and an impossible to follow error code (see attachment).

Finally I want to point out also that the problem is not necessarily related to your hack - this is seemingly effecting Quick Reply and other AJAX features within MSIE but I also have yet to fully determine just how much is effected by it. The boards here and on vbulletin.com are not suffering when I use MSIE - so that leaves me pretty confounded.

My members are screaming for your chat module - it is very popular and I thank you for it; I hope this wider issue can be resolved and if there is any testing I can do to assist I would be happy to.

Finally I reported this in the advanced forum stats thread - same problem and rolling the version back didn;t help in my case.

Best Regards,
Will

Just what I expected...

Guys, I'm using MGC shoutbox now. Easy to install and looks exactly the same as this one. Has a lot more features though. Try it out.

i think its been said a few times about the issues with IE

and i have not found a solution if the dev has a solution maybe he should put it in a known bugs section on the mod's description.

I do like cyb chatbox but unfortantly due to not being supported gonna have to move to MGC. Hopfully he free's up some time and can sort out issues better and i can come back.

Thanks

Internet explorer cannot open the archive page for anyone. How do I fix this?

Check out this article for for IE "system error":

It's been 2 weeks since I first posted my problem. You have posted several times since my initial post without even acknowlegding my issue. If this continues I will have no choice but to find an alternative. I really enjoy your modifications and I have several others installed, but if you only drop in once in a blue moon and only skim through the user posts, you should consider classifying this as Unsupported. I understand you have a lot of other threads to consider and you have other obligations, but if you say you will support something, please follow through. Thanks.

Thanks for quick reply. I added to the top of misc.php page and it didn't make a difference when accessing the archive page for shoutbox. The misc.php works fine, it's just http://domain.com/forums/misc.php?do=ccarc don't work.

Not sure if this bug is posted yet or not: on my board where I have the chatbox, if someone posts a few smilies, the ajax doesn't refresh to the bottom of the box...

y2krazy,
I suppose it's PHP related problem, but not sure how it can be fixed.

CorneliusW,
You should check your php.ini for charset settings. It should be "utf-8", not UTF-8/utf8/UTF8.

Dude, is this hack ever gonna be updated?

Of course it will be.

Is there a way that I can limit the chat box to only certain groups?

still dont work with vbadvance :(

Installed this works brilliantly,

Is there a list of commands that admins can use on this shout box like the /me command?

"/me" is the only one.

Options to delete messages, ban/unban users, etc... are in CB Archive..

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...6&d=1231601299

When?

Any rough release date?

Cyb- thanks heaps for that outlink to the utf-8 issue - seems that MSIE is much more picky about the charset syntax and it was driving me mad; not sure why it didn't attract more attention.

I appreciate your linking to the solution - I was drawing a blank no matter how hard I googled.

how to disable the automatic refresh of the shoutbox once the page is loaded !

I have no time atm to add new features etc... only to fix major bugs if they are discovered...

what about vbadvanced?..

What do I have to delete to take this off my mobile phone template? I am not sure how to do it properly.

Hi

I got this error when I banned any user:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ')' in /public_html/misc.php(100) : eval()'d code(513) : eval()'d code on line 1

Any Suggestion?

How do you get it to show std time not military time . I have H:M and it shows 24 hour time, it also shows wrong date , is that server issue ?
Time on forum is correct

Sweet work, your the best. thanks.

i have a problem,whenever i have to ban a member in the chatbox this message came out:
What seems to be the problem?

Hey, Cyb!

I'd love to keep all the other bbcodes active, and just remove the color option menu ability for people as some colors are pretty nasty with light and dark style selections available.

Any pointers on this would be SINCERELY appreciated!

Best wishes.

Remove colors which are the same as backgrounds in styles?

Any tips on the "perfect" setting for this chat box on fairly high trafficked sties?

Is there a JAVA alternative or something otherwise?

Great mod, thanks.

What code do i add to put the chatbox on multiple pages. I remember it being something like $cchatbox, but i know that is not it exactly.

Up on the product description, under installation, it says $cybchatbox
scroll up and you'll see it there :)

This optional step creates a duplicate of the chatbox on the vba_cms screen, one which works, one which continually loads, is there a way to get only the $cybchatbox chatbox to appear on this page in the position we have specified in the adv_portal template?
