The remove text formatting image and the smilies image are not showing up for me, anyone know how to fix this? Im running 4.2

Hello,
first I want to thank you for this nice AddOn.

I changed the skin and all works nice, but I have a problem..

When I set in the setting "Logged-out by default" to NO, me and some other users are logged out by default and some other users aren't. When I set it to YES, me and some other users are logged in by default and some other users aren't. Can someone help me?

BTW: My Chatbox: http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/5bggqv8v/Unbenannt.png

Is there anyway not to change that? I mean just change the input text window and not the background input.

Or just tell me how I can deactivate/disable Login. I don't need this feature.

help, how to fix this post align

Love this add-on! Just installed it. Very happy.

I want to ask my question again: how can I disable the login?

The author does offer occasional support, but yours is more of a mod to a mod question so you may not want to hold your breath.

You may have better luck figuring out what's causing the original problem. That could be a technical issue on the server, but if different clients respond differently it could also be a client issue. Try a different browser, clear cache, check security apps, etc.

I'm on a shared server so I'm configured as a shoutbox, logging people out fairly quickly before they load us down.

But I even can't find the problem, why some users are logged in by default and some not when I activate/deactivate the setting "logged out by default". I need a solution. My forum is still small and I minimized all server load and optimized my vbulletin. I don' t think the chatbox will kill my server.

This chatbox is really better as the MCG one, because it takes so much server load (that's at least what I'm thinking) The only point I want to change is the login system. Else I like this minimized chatbox. But the chatbox login is for me useless. If my server load is too high, i will rent a new, better server - this is no problem. Would be awesome if anyone has a solution.. at least for my problem.. :(

PS: Sorry for bad English, my English isn't really good.

€: My Coding skills aren't even "sooo bad" .. My Forum... I changed the template of the chatbox. And it doesn't even is just me, with the problem.. I think much users have this problem.

Just set it to some high value, like 1000 minutes?

I did.

Oh, lol.. I failed hard. THANK YOU!!!!!! ... I entered 99999 Minutes and I think it was too much... 1440 works fine.. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

You're welcome :-)

Is there a way to not publicly show a list of those who are banned from the Chat Box?

im missing images/editor/removeformat.png and images/editor/smilie.png. I looked in the vBulletin zip and they arent included in there either?

These are the images that you need to upload to your image> editor folder, just rename the smile png to "smilie".

The majority of my smilies are missing. Only about two smilies are showing up. Any suggestions?

does anybody know how much more server load you get when you enable it on all pages, a rough percentage? i see in the settings it says not recommended because of this potential issue, but what am i looking at? i'm not sure if this is relevant, but only a few of us are permitted to use it(admin,mods)

Load certainly depends on how many people are in it and refreshing it, not on how many pages it's on. Though you could make the argument that with it on more pages, people are in it against their will even if they're doing something else. In these days of tabbed browsing, what would be the point?

No, nobody has ever done any testing to see exactly how much load 1 person causes - probably because such a test would be almost impossible.

users are saying the chatbox link takes them to a smiley list...

why dont you just have a option for usergroups you want to make this available too?

that would b better IMO.

OK I have an issue. The smile box and remove text formatting are showing up blank. There should be something in them boxes. Confused now.

How to show this Chat Box on all the pages? means i want the chat box inside my threads and topics, CMS, Blog :) Thanks for the Mod, excellent :)

You dont want to do that. Its going to kill your server

can we have a feature like, ' Minimum posts needed per day to access chatbox'??

This will help in keeping the forum live and members would have access to chatbox too..

That's an interesting thought, although on slower forums "minimum posts in the last x days" would make more sense. I suppose one may as well add "maximum posts per last x days" at the same time.

Of course, I can imagine people would just add useless nonsense replies to get the minimum if they were really that talkative in the first place.

we're getting strange errors out of the blue. its been working fine for months but a few of our admin are having issues when they edit their responses in the Chatbox.

See if you can narrow it down to which specific mod is causing the problem. Try disabling all of them, or at least the ones you installed last, then enabling them one by one.

Just in case others not wanting anyone to see the list of banned users, here's how I hid it from certain usergroups.

Templates -> Valter -> vsa_chatbox_dropdown

Find: Around that wrap the conditional tag: where x,y,z are a list of the usergroups allowed to view the list of banned members. Anyone not on that list by default shouldn't be able to see it.

Great add-on , we and Users Love it !

Any Chance for the mobile style Version ?

usually the way i would approach this but since it only affects 2 of our admins, it could take a while. i had one of the guys who is having this problem to use different browsers, still no go. i've tried disabling the last two addons that were installed, did not help. and those addons were installed quite a while ago anyways, long before this issue.

lastly, i've uninstalled and re-installed the Chatbox, did not fix this.

How do I change the background color of the highlighted area in the picture attached without changing everything else on my site? I just want this bar a different color.

IS there anyway you guys could add a option to be able to make a member a Moderator of the chat only?

Suddenly my chatbox is acting screwy, posts are showing up out of order, I post and it might show up ahead of five posts that were there before I even started typing.

I have not added anything to my board in a while and this just started the other day.

You forgot to add all the details about your hosting. Obviously if you're on a shared server or any server with support, you first need to contact your host. Let us know what they said. If it's your own server, then at least assure us there have been no recent updates to like PHP, etc.

What would I ask the host ?

That doesn't answer my question at all. Are you saying it's a shared server? If so, you need to send them links to this mod and ask why it suddenly began misbehaving around a specific date.

It wasn't meant to give you any answers, it was a question.

Yes, it is a shared server.

No, there haven't been any changes made in months.

They saw no issues, and suggested asking you if you thought uninstalling and then reinstalling it might fix it.

You can try a reinstall; don't forget to 'allow overwrite'. But suddenly screwy dates sounds more like some sort of server error. However I would sure think you would have noticed it elsewhere by now such as people's posts getting the wrong times.

Thank you, I'll give it a try.

Didn't fix it.:(

Abandon all hope.
