Any thing on this?

Yes this has been corrected in the next version (release this weekend normally).

Forgot to put it in the bugs list ;)

Thank you :)

thanx agin i hope i see more a pdate soon ...

I am sorry, but I can not find directions simple enough for me to implement the Chatbox with a global variable. Can someone explain what files I modify and what code I place in order to have it appear at the top of the footer of every page, or at least at the top of the vbAdvanced footer? I am sure this must be simple, but it is escaping me.

how can i replace the text that says MGC Chatbox [Archives]

right above the chat box?

Also i like the idea of the inilne smileys how can i increase the # of inline smileys displayed

I am using version 1.2 by the way.

As I told, the global thing might not work with vbadvanced due to path problemes (this is why I told that I'll be releasing a vbadvanced addon for that purpose).

To show it on particular pages, here is what you should do :

1. Open the php file of the page where you want to show the chatbox
2. Search for the THIS_SCRIPT define line and note the value which is assigned to THIS_SCRIPT
3. Put it in the admincp in the box made for that purpose for the chatbox show on all pages thing
4. Activate the option show on defined pages in a global var
5. The open the templates of the page you want it to be shown and then put $mgc_chatbox wherever you want it to be on the page.

I know this process is maybe hard but this is the price for placing the chatbox wherever you want ;)

Both can be changed through options in the acp. :)

Has anyone tried using the global var thing with ibproarcade ?

I ask to know if this solved everyone's problem about that.

I tried it wit ibproarcade but it jus shows up as 'loading'

Thank you for the step by step instructions. It worked on the first try. It also works with vbAdvanced, which is great in that I now have a full width ChatBox in lieu of being limited to the center column width, which is how I had my other ShoutBox mod set up. I have my forums in the root directory of my site. Perhaps that is why it works with VBA for me. I have made the full switch to MGC ChatBox now. Thanks again!
