Yes I have activated it. I am still unsure what is happening. As for the syntax I am a new installation and used v1.5.

Thanks

I installed it and seems work properly. I am waiting for new option, users can easy select colours of wording. Members do not like writing words between codes.
VBDev, hurry up for V2.0 :))
Thanks a lot.

Anyone experiencing the same problem ?

They already can select colours or wording from their usercp in the current version of the chatbox you know.

Just installed it, works great. Now, how can I put specific smilies in there? Also, no big deal, but it does not show who is using the chatbox. When I click the "who's on line", it says just me, when others are posting in it.

öhm.. postbit and postnit legacy, i rebuild that templates.

And now, the chatbox wil not be displayed.

How i get that one back on my forumhome?

Hey VBDev, I've got an interesting situation for you.

On my forum I seem to be having a few members are not able to see the Shoutbox, I checked the usergroup permissions and so forth but they not seeing the Shoutbox still.

I did uninstall and reinstall again but it seems to work for a period of time before the Shoutbox goes missing again for the 'normal users', not anyone with modship or Adminship permissions.

I'm using [vB 3.6.x] MGC Chatbox v1.5.zip

Any suggestions?

Any way to disable the chatbox dropdown in the navbar?

No with the current state of work you can't select specific smilies.

It is a planned feature but not for the really next version perhaps the one after.

Rebuilding the postbit legacy has removed chatbox from forumhome ?

Are you sure that you didn't do anything else ? Perhaps you have deactivated the display chatbox on forumhome option ?

This is a very well known situation and I am sorry but it do comes from a miss in your following of the install procedure he he.

I think you haven't done the modification to the modifyoptions template which you should have done to avoid that problem to appear.

To correct that, do the modification stated in the install procedure and then tell your user to go in their usercp > options and set the show chatbox option back to yes.

As the modification is not present on your forum, the option is not displayed and thus equivalent to hide chatbox if a user change its options.

Yes, by removing the navbar template edits you did during the chatbox install. :)

ive had major problems installing this on vb 3.7.0 beta 3 is it ment to work on this version if not will there be another release of this. i know of another website running at 3.7.0 using this chatbox but i cant seem to figure it out. if it can be done i would be very grate full if you could install it to my vb.

Many Thanks,
Reece.

vB DEV thanks, i found it. It was deaktivate in my Preferences..

Hi, it works on vb3.7.

I am sorry but I haven't the time to install it for you.

Have you carefully followed the instlal instsructions ? Especially the usergroup permissions that are always an error source ?

When you say that it doesn't work, what do you exaxctly encounter ?

well its happened a few times that ive tried installing ive followed everything step by step i just dont have a clue why it dont work :S erm well i can get everything on the fourm but i dunno what i do wrong but it aint just me 2 others have tried i do all the modifications to the template as stated but it doesnt wanma show up ive set the user permissions to allow them to see it but it doesnt appear.

thanks.

edit: can anyone install it for me plz

Thanks for that mate, I'll wait and see your new version of 2.0 that would be released soon. Hopefully it wouldn't have as much glitches but I am really looking forward to it :)

Any ideas vbDEV?

Duh!
I made those edits with TMS, which explains why I couldn't find them in the navbar template, hence my asking here.

Sorry for the dumb question and thank you for your help.

He He no problem dude.

About the stats, where have you put the $cb_stats code ?

Is chatbox meant to be shown on forumhome on your forum ?

About the pm command which syntax have you used ?

Send me your msn address by pm and I'll see what I can do.

This is great, thank you so much.

uninstalled because the serverload on my server went skyhigh after installation.

Now my usergroup permissions are ++++ed though, it doesn't remove the MGC permission boxes.. What to do now?

Need help: Everytime I want to update the usergroups I get this error now :
The plugin has been installed successfully

And why the ++++ does this Thread always doublepost my postings ?
if i delete one posting, the other is also deleted ??????????

Sorry but this problem is urgently ... I cant work on the usergroups anymore ....

You haven't followed the install instructions correctly.

You were supposed to remove all chatbox files before uninstalling.

To correct that, two solutions:

1. Install chatbox product again and then remove files (especially the one in the xml directory) then remove products again
2. Rebuild bitfields manually after having removed the files

Have you also uploaded the mgccustombitfields product ?

Hi VBDev,I had before the opportunity to tell you how good this shout is but since 2 days ago the shout it is loading and nobody can type anything,I have allready disabled automatic refreshment but it is the same,what could be the problem???????

Hell no :D ... works now ...

Did you do anything on your forum just before it stops working ?

Hello VBDev,

i still have an idea for the version 2.0.

What do you think about an option (for the archive) that you can mark a few shouts and then delete this marked shouts?

cu
entertain

It seems that other Admin had disable the ajax functions without telling me,Grrrrrrrrrrrrr

But I only realise now that Pm function gives me an error of "Command syntax error", do you know why because I never had used that function,regards.

In vBulletin 3.7 not show option in user control panel :(

*clicked installed* works perfect and easy install. thank you!

Installed, work perfectly.

memorize the type of font y color by nick? it possible?

thank you

This is an interesting feature however, I don't have the time to add it for the 2.0 version.

I barely have the time to work on it so I prefer keeping my eyes on the current features I have decided.

Please keep your request in mind and ask it again once the new version will be released :)

Which syntax did you type to use it ?

Have you applied again the modifications to the modifyoptions template coz you might have overwrited them while upgrading to the new version.

This is already the case in the usercp a user can choose its own color / size / font for the shouts.

Friendly thanks

Great chat, great software

Best regards:up::up:

Can I get some help, I ahve no clue where ot find / edit the FORUMHOME, im getting so stressed I can't follow teh last steps of teh installation can anyone further explain / help.

Admin CP > Styles & Templates > Search in Templates > Search for Text: forumhome > Click on FORUMHOME then hit edit/customise. :)

How can I enable autmatic cleaning of shouts? Please, help! I can't find it:)

I love this chatbox! Clicked "installed" & wish it was listed for MOTM.

I too would love a Private Chatbox capability, or at least private for several forums. For now, I'm just using the Team feature, where mods & admins can vent privately.

I've been reading this very long thread all day trying to find out how to display the chatbox on just certain forums, done about 15 thread searches, View Sources etc. and still can't figure it out. Brain freeze!

So can you spell it out for me, perhaps with an example of what needs to go on the Other Pages List?

Thanks so much & keep up the great work!

cant figure out how to unban and see a list of banned people. how do i do this?

You have to first set the option : MGC Chatbox : General Options > Numbers of days of the shouts to remove to your wanted value.

And then you'll just have to check in the cron manager if the chatbox task is set active and this should do it :)

What do you mean exactly by private ? If you want regular users not to see it, then you can just set the usergroups options ofr the other groups to no.

It's not possible actually to show the chatbox only on certains forums but this is a functionnality I am willing to add.

Use the help button in the chatbox to see the command syntaxes :)

Just installed this on my forum
Problem is in Usergroups and the Chatbox section of admincp it is all in French. How can I change this.

Oh

Everything is in frnech even n forum shoutbox yet I installed the lanugage file?
