vb.org Archive - Chat Modifications

I looked and looked and looked AND looked...

How the heck does this get on the top of all pages? I've tried all different options, changing the global_start, just about anything I can think of.

Is there a solution buried here that I missed?

In options "Display and position" its the top 2 options. Select in that dropdown menu "above the forums". And you should be seeing them at the top of all pages.

Possible bug?

Searching for * (asterisk) gives x 30

The * (asterisk) has a 'purpose' in the programming language php.

Try this:

how would I go about creating a custom command for this version? I used to use <1.0 which had built in custom commands, not sure how I'd add it here.

Yep there was in that earlier version but as almost no users used it I removed it to simplify the install process.

What you can do is have a look at the code and tell me locations you could be interested to have hooks and I could consider adding them ?

any possiblity to show specific channels only for specific languages?

No the chatbox doesn't allow that but that's pretty interesting, I am adding this to the request list.

Do you see chatbox options in your usercp options ?

I have two styles installed, one white and one black. At the beginning, a user's font in the chatroom looks white if you have the black style and black if you have the white style, just like it should be. Now, if the user goes to his control panel and changes the color and then changes back to "use default color", it becomes black - or whatever color is set as default in that user's usergroup permissions. This means that users with the black style can't see what he's writing. I've currently set the default color to green, so that it's visible in both styles, but I'd like to get it to work like it should - white on black, black on white.
Also, is there a way to exclude specific colors from the users selection? So that I can exclude black and white (or any color that isn't viewable in both styles)?
Thanks in advance, great piece of software.

Hum, I'll mark this as a bug it's odd, I'll have a look.

I'll also add an option to specify the colors allowed in the chatbox.

Hello,
I have the same problem I had with the previous version for vb3.x then resolved with a patch.
Chat if I write a word with the accent, the chat does not write the message, but remains on standby

What can be?

What was that patch ?

Yes but that shouldn't fire an error ;) I should have string processing to avoid that.
Adding this to bug list.

Some of my members discovered an exploit of this mod which allows anyone to find and access all channels, regardless of the permission settings. This is because all the buttons do is:

javascript:display_channel(1);

There are no additional permissions checks and anyone can access our staff chat. All private communication in such channels are in the open.

So all a user has to do is type 'javascript:void(display_channel(1));' in the browser and replace the number 1 by another number, and they are in another channel.

I am still on 2.4.2 though. Has this been fixed in the latest version?

I have encountered a strange problem - I have set the number of days to keep chats in archive to 3 days but after one day all chats get deleted. I reinstalled the Chatbox EVO (but it didn't helped), and my vbulletin is newest version 4.0.4 patch 1

I have a dark theme and I'm getting the following bug.

When the user select a color from his usercp and then changes back to default the chats takes black as default color and thus could be bearly unreadable in dark styles.

Any tips or fixes for this? I attempted to reupload the files to reinstall, but that did nothing.

I'm using vb 3.8.5

Installed and Admin CP is fine, just a quick question, how do i get this to show on my forum. For some reason the chatbox is not showing.

Im guessing thats its gonna be an easy fix, but I just cant figure it out.

Thanks for your help.

When you say that you enter this in your browser, how do you do it ?

That could be fixed by putting an ajax call to check channel switch permissions. I'll mark this as a bug once you tell me exactly how to reproduce it.
