I Received an E-mail from "Cl?ment aka vBDev" regarding New Features on this Great Mod; I'd like to Quote my Last Request for the Message Editor to be More Flexible as it was Before the Latest Updates. ;)

VBDev, could you Please in your Next Update Offer the following 2 Choices :confused::

1. To be able to Use the Message Text Field Editor as BBCode or as WYSIWYG. :)

2. To be able to Use the Color, Bold, Italic, and Underline, Options to be Applied to a Selected Text or to All the ShoutBox Text of the Editor Text Field. :)

Both of them to have the 2 mentioned Choices, so that we Admins can Choose the Ones Our Users would like Better. ;)

I Hope You Can Offer Us this 2 Choices in Your Next Update, VBDev. ;)

My Best Regards.

:)

I have a couple questions, and let me apologize if it has already been asked somewhere in the last 340 pages...

First, can this be made to only be accessed by certain usergroups, AND only read by other usergroups?

Also, I am on a shared server, decent amt. of bandwidth, but shared just the same. Will this cause me problems?

Thanks!

Alfa the feature to put the input field below the shouts is already there in Chats Formatting : Editor position
Specifies the input field and chatbox buttons position.

As far as banning users from chat box you can also do that easily, just click on drop down next to users name and ban them for a short while, you can also probably set your chatbox idle timeout better so that people are idle in chatbox sooner allowing those who are truly writing and chatting to get in more often.

You can tell people about the new channel or actually assign different user groups to default to a certain chat channel.

You can do exactly that in admincp usergrp permissions.

Thanks.

----------------------
I am totally lost. Can do you do a sketch in pain or kinda like that ?

Feature request: I would like to see an alternative avatar layout where only the last person who chatted could have a full avatar showing. Nobody else's avatar would show. I used to have a program that did this, but I like yours better overall. That feature would be nice since as you chat the avatar of the last person changes and you can see the detail from their avatar in full size without taking up screen space showing everyone's avatar at that size.

The format then would go like this:

Column 1:
First rows: Enter Chat Here - Buttons - Icons
Last rows: Last Person Chatted Avatar (Full Size Avatar shows)

Column 2+:
As it is now, Date, Time, Chat, etc.

Well about the editor on left (or could be right as well), I have added in the next version a new possible editor layout with a textarea on the right or left instead of top/bottom editor as simple input.

However, not sure of the utility of the avatar like that on the left, but I'd be interested in knowing the other users thoughts on the subject.

Can anyone address this issue or give a solution. Trust me I have followed the instructions to the Letter and still no chatbox showing, its like the var code is not registered on a necessary page or file which allows us to use the var code, and just putting the page names in the admin cp does no good either.

Thank you,

PS: If you have a channel stop showing the chats or shouts go into the archive and delete any chat or shout with special characters. The chatbox will start working again.

You have to open the php files corresponding to these pages and then you should add the THIS_SCRIPT values to the box of defined pages. Please copy a screenshot of your configuration settings.

  2. Access from the chat box on forum pages was hard for a lot of members, while chat access from the main chat page /mgc_cb_evo.php?do=view_chatbox did not give access problems(until 80 chatters where in). Members often where unable to view shouts in the main channel, when accessing on a forum page.
Does this make sense to you? Any idea what happened?
I would like to open the chat box up again for my members, if it can take a few hundred concurrent chatters.

That's interesting, never been able to run the chatbox with such amount of users.
So here are a few questions:
  • Was it slow because lots of chats were made in the mean time ?
  • Were you getting any errors in the javascript console of firefox ?
  • Please install the firebug extension and activate it when on your
    When active, click the little bug on the right corner of firefox, then activate everything in the Console tab. See how much time the chats retrieval takes (ajax call to mgc_cb_evo_ajax.php, i would be interested to know and also to know if anyhow that fails.
  • If you can, try to tell other of your users to do so, getting the most feedback as possible would be awesome to find solutions or issues.

  1. Already an option
  2. You can ban, what did you mean by infract ?
  3. Like private discussion between two members ?

  1. Well when wysiswyg is active or not, the bbcode still can be used
  2. I am not very up to that, chats are simple, you don't write huge texts, so is this really needed, I am not sure. What do you think other users ?

Thats a very great Chatbox, i love "her" :-) i think she is female, only womans are so beautiful xD

hi the /TEAM command doesn't work properly.

I'm Admin and when I use that command, the Members can also see my /TEAM shouts and not just Admin usergroup.

Just tested and it worked. Depends how you set the command, have you correctly set the usergroup permissions ?

Would you say this is less server intensive than Cyb Chatbox or Inferno Shoutbox?
