worked for me.

Thank you for the update! Love the ability to choose font size. :)

thats lovely thanks cyb xxx

Thanks for the update :)

Cyb,

I have installed several of your mods on our forums and am always impressed at the quality of the code.

This one is the latest and tbh, my guild already love you :)

Never stop coding vBulletin mods! In fact, get yourself a job working for Jelsoft! :)

P.

So, I have a query now ;)

I want it displayed on all pages, so I found:

"Show ChatBox on (comma separated THIS_SCRIPT locations) Blank to show on all pages (not recommended because of server load)"

I blanked it out which seems to make it appear in most places. However, it doesn't appear at the top of 'Search' pages (specifically 'New Posts') EDIT: If there are unread threads, it does appear. If there are NO unread threads, it doesn't

So then I tried disabling auto-templating, and adding it manually to the bottom of the 'navbar' template, which gave exactly the same results - displays fine on forum home / forum list / thread etc, but not on the search results screen.

Any ideas how I can get it to display on the New Posts page?

vBulletin 3.7.2 btw.

P.

EDIT 2: I think it's due to the fact it's using the STANDARD_ERROR template to display the "no posts found" message. It's definately still calling the parse_templates hook, so there must be something in the code it doesn't like.

EDIT 3: The standard_error() function basically doesn't pass the correct information :( There goes my limited vBulletin knowledge. sniff..

Nice addition to an already great mod.
Thanks

Is there any way I can get this to work with the norwegian letters ÆØÅ?

Great Mod!

Any idea, or has anyone came across a way to fix the color drop down in Safari? It only shows a color when you choose a color, but otherwise its all just blank. Weird haha

Thanks in advance :)

Great mod, installed on 3.7.0

Thanks.

PS: How can I put a background on the back of the chatbox? Any ideas?

Should I concern about the server load issue with this Mod ???

Also, another thought would be to perhaps notify in the Chat box that a new thread has been posted, with the title, forum and a link. Ability to restrict to certain forums, or only display them based on the permission of the logged in user. :)

P.

Another idea:

Often people browse away without the chat window open - how about a subtle 'pulsing' icon somewhere on the main board whenever people are chatting, so as to let people know? :)

haha oh alright :D

Thanks fo rthe upgrade. Nice features and well done again.

Hey, just need to check - once this is added it won't give birth to the security token error?

Has the line of code been added so that it works with the security token feature?

I'm getting this error msg. Anyone know why it's happening? thanks.

Quote:

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing or mismatched.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

installed & working excellent :) its much better then ShoutBox!!

Superb upgrade yet again mate, well done!

Wehn it says "pruned" does that actually mean deleted from everything?

Deleted physically from database. Messages can not be restored later.

Installed on vB 3.7.2 - works great! Thanks, Cyb! Keep up the good work.

Bump: i'd like to know how to get the non-chatbox full as a module also please.. All my attempts so far have made ugly messes, usually wrapped in vBadvanced inside a module :(

Also: LOVE the mod, working well on 3.7.2

Suggestion: Any way that CHANNELS could be added for future? so different sections of the board could have their own chats? I think that would kick this mod into the super-league..

Did this and like it. However, I notice it widens the forumhome quite a bit. Is there a way to allow the chatbox to be more narrow for those who want it? Thanks.

EDIT: figured it out. I saw the percentage of 75% and made it less. Worked just fine. Thanks.

I don't see any submit button. It'd also be nice to be able to edit the phrase 'Ask your questions in the forums. The ChatBox is for small talk.' and $vbphrase[message]. I can't use the chatbox on my ipod without the submit button, so i think that's the most important.

There IS a submit button, and I'm always wondering how some people can be forum admins if they don't even know how to edit phrases.

Cyb, the bug that makes the time displays H:i instead of the actual time is forcing me to use another chat mod, too bad.. really like this one!

Is there anything you could try to do? Maybe change the code, feth the time in another way? Ask someone else that's also into coding..

Anyone know how to change the code to make the text editor be on top like this guy did...

Cyb, great hack! While on subject a related question - whenever someone posts a message in Chatbox I've a floating popbox that [will] notify other users that "someone is Cybing in Chatbox", am using a simple "$show['typing']=true" switch but cannot figure out the best place in the code to set and clear it.

The display template part of it is not my creation, it's another modified hack from here but will post "how to" after I get this thing popping properly,

Thx Wabbit!

What guy is "this"? Again, version 2.0!

SnapOff, what Titan did is very similar with the editor on the bottom, reverse the "textarea name="ccb_entermessage"" HTML and you should have it.

I like it too! Thx Titan (what version you running now?) for sharing . . .

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...4&d=1208289470

Any help would be appreciated.

Ok for those who asked for this layout for the chatbox:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2008/07/45.jpg

You can get it here: just copy/paste everything in the style cyb_chatbox

http://rafb.net/p/VBTPQZ81.html

I tested it in safari, firefox 3, and opera 9.5. Not tested in IE6/7 so if someone will please test there, thanks.

I also fixed a bug with the refreshing of the chatbox, not it will reset the refresh timeout after every submit so that you do not get lots of refreshes when submitting alot of messages.

And a bug where the character count is not reset successfully after each message submission.

And lastly I added a loading indicator..

is there anyway to put the text editor below the chatbox and not in the left side like it is right now?

btw installed and its works great ;)

installed -- is there VBa module for this .. so it can be on the portal page ?

Back up one page, post 268? Mind you this is postbit for ver 2.0 and not the newer 2.1, haven't had time to look at newer postbit but assume the adjustment is similar. "Compare the two and the solution should present itself!

Titan's postbit does work on 2.1 version but added features, like the px adjustment and char counter, are missing . . .

Nice work Cyb! wabbit

I had installed a rival chatbox for quite a while, until an exploit was discovered about it and vBulletin emailed me. The chatbox was wildly popular with my members, although I was hesitant to look for a replacement because I discovered it decimated new thread posts. In its absense though, I noticed a sharp decline in activity in general so I sought out a replacement and found this one. It's great. It's totally streamlined. It fits my forum layout perfectly. It works perfectly. I'm happy that my community goaded me into replacing the chatbox because this is great.
