thats you're style thats maken it do that i had the same prob b4r i changed my style

Veer 11-09-2008 01:18 PM

Hello, VBDev

I'm using Chatbox Version 1.1.0 on vB 3.7.4

I was editing a usergroup in the Admin CP. I hit the "Save" button and got the "successful" message, but when I look in the Usergroup Manager vB has created a new usergroup under "Custom Usergroups" with the settings I changed instead of modifying the usergroup as I would like.

To troubleshoot I contact vB support, they suggested me to remove any of the listed .xml files in the includes/xml directory, so I deleted bitfield_mgc_cb_evo.xml and cpnav_mgc_cb_evo.xml and problem gone, I tried to re upload these xml files but the problem came again.

I hope you will try to fix this issue asap!

Thanks.

Markos 11-09-2008 04:04 PM

BucWiLd 11-09-2008 04:17 PM

im on 3.7.3 not upgrading till the new blog goes gold. igure it must be a hack issue. i disabled the donate bar and moved the lates photos to below the forum and now its on top. Any way to set it so when users choose a color they stay that way instead of having to pick it on every chat attempt. Also when posting a chat it sometimes shows twice, only to the senders not the reciebing party. they only see one submission

BucWiLd 11-10-2008 02:17 AM

Im having trouble with IE users getting some chat box erors and getting booted is how they describe it. I also get the dbl chat thingy. but im most concerned about the ie users getting errors only

Thanx for this wonderful chatbox - I have a question please. How do I make the chatbox appear 1st, directly beneath the navbar on forumhome as seen in the screenshot below? I have tried setting the execution order of the Chatbox display on forumhome plugin to 1 - doesn't seem to work though.

Thanx in advance for help ;)

You can try to use the little help in the readme for style issues. This should do the trick.

For the color picking, they can set it in their usercp.

I don't think it comes from the chatbox . Noone ever experienced that and the xml files are totally handled by vB.

gpc10347 11-10-2008 02:04 PM

Unless already addressed, I have a minor feature request or perhaps, this is something that isn't as good of idea as I think: Let me know.

The [more] button for smileys currently displays the entire onslaught of smileys that I have and unfortunately, it appears to overload some folks browsers. Of course I can remove some but I have a mod that affects misc.php that prevents the issue when posting in the threads...

Would it be possible to have mgc_chat reference /misc.php?do=getsmilies&editorid=&select_category=A nimated or similar in it's [more] smileys function?

Thanks for a great mod no matter what

BucWiLd 11-10-2008 05:02 PM

VB DEV, they get a message chat processing and when they click ok i guess it is. it freezes and closes there browser. it has happened to me on ff like twice

Medtech 11-11-2008 01:03 AM

Done some reading here, can't find my answer, How do i change the chats from appearing horizontal to vertical like most other chatboxes? I searched through the admincp for it, didn't find the option to change it. thanks

You can do this yourself already with a simple workaround. Just create a new smiley group "Chatbox Smilies" or something else.
Once done, add the smilies there you want to use - this Group then get's an internal ID in the Database.
Open your Database - the "smilies" table - it's in a form of:

smilieid | title | smilietext | smiliepath | imagecategoryid | ...

While "imagecategoryid" is important here. Note the number and then open:

mgc_cb_evo.php

Search for:

Quote:

/* All smilies window */
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == "showsmilies")
{
if ((!can_view_mgc_cb_evo() && !can_use_mgc_cb_evo()) || !$vbulletin->options
['mgc_cb_evo_smileys'])
{
print_no_permission();
}

/* Retrieving smilies */
$getsmilies = $vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "smilie ORDER BY displayorder ASC");
And modify the "$getsmilies" to:

$getsmilies = $vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "smilie WHERE imagecategoryid=1 ORDER BY displayorder ASC");

Replace "imagecategoryid=1" with the right "imagecategoryid=... the number you're using" :)

Please note:

This just changes the "Popup" - it doesn't change the smilies displayed directly in the Chatbox. This is configured somewhere else :)

I noticed using the /del all command deletes all chats from all channels. Can this be separated?

You have to use the /del chan command (check syntax) within the chatbox.

Skyrider 11-11-2008 02:25 PM

Thanks VBDev :). Though, where can I find this issue in the bug list? I can't find it.

nasko 11-12-2008 11:11 AM

I'm looking for a private moderators only chat add-on, but one which is like a chat room. Whenever a moderator writes something it should pop out to every other moderator, that is online and vice versa. It is needed for better collaboration between moderators so everyone agrees with a certain course of action being chosen. It would be advantageous to have the option to sign in the chat, to show that they are available as moderators. Maybe something like the one in facebook, but for more than 2 persons. I believe permissions will be based on usergroups, so having the same one for regular users will be good too.

I looked through the available ones, but the choice is big and I'm probably not even getting the full list with the search term "chat"

vBulletin® Version 3.7.2

Will this chat work for me?
Thank you.

No this chat is not a direct messaging system with popups like the one your seeking for.

I don't even now of a chat addon that allows that by the way.

Thank you. Can you suggest something as close to my needs as possible then? I guess I'll have to forget about the popups. I looked through 7-8 chat addons here and I'm not exactly sure which one to pick. What is the easiest way to demo them, without the need to install them on forum I need them for. I need something simple so it doesn't add much load to the server. It will be used by maximum of 10 moderators and if regular users are let to use it too - then I predict around 50-100 people online in it as well.

Thank you

Is it possible to display the channel name at the top for each channel so user knows at a glance which channel they are in as it gets confusing

vB Pager is all I can think of that is even remotely similar to what your asking. I currently use it on my 3.7.3 forum with no issues whatsoever :up:

That's an interesting suggestion.

I add it to the feature requests list.

Ranger187 11-13-2008 02:31 PM

Hey VB... I think the readme should be updated for that loading issue. I have an idea of what can be put there if they have the loading issue ontop of what's already there. Unless that YUI will elimanate this?

vb 3.8.1 and chatbox version 1.1.0


Very strange mine is also appearing horizontal for some reason and it was appearing vertical...I am at a loss as to what happened.

Anybody have any ideas????

Ranger187 11-13-2008 04:47 PM

That's templates. Chats are always up/down, not left/right hence "vertical". If you want it to a side, you would have to modify the templates.

dyna88 11-13-2008 05:08 PM

I want it vertical....

The strange thing is, is that all I did was edit the .vbmenu_control font color on a new style and when I went to look at the color I noticed the chats were going horizontal instead of vertical. I checked the default style and it is the same way....I am at a lose here.

I uninstalled and re-installed the chat product for the hell of it and that had no effect....any ideas.


I submitted a screen shot...

Ranger187 11-13-2008 05:16 PM

My opinion: Horizontal is gay, and hard to read. That will only cause major confusion.

I think you mean vertical "up/down" which is the standard. Your screen shot shows horizontal.

Revert the changes you made outside any files that were included with the chat, then reinstall.

Yeah I miss typed, I edited my post...thanks

I made no changes to any of the chat files....

Ranger187 11-13-2008 05:33 PM

Nah bro, I said revert the changes you made outside of the chat. Meaning to the VBulletin files themself that were not part of the files in the zip. You edited some CSS style or something. Revert the templates. See if the default template (this is why it's good to never touch that one or delete it. ;) ) shows it working fine. If it does, then it's the templates.

dyna88 11-13-2008 05:45 PM

I never touch the default style, that is the first thing I checked and it is doing the same thing....I included a screen shot of the default style

All I changed was the .vbmenu_control of a new style which I did put back but shouldn't matter anyway. The only templates I edited in the style were the header and footer and that was yesterday but that shouldn't cause this anyway...

Thanks for ideas...keep them coming...:up:

Edit:
I have an update...I have been using Firefox so I tried it in IE and have found that with IE the chats do not display at all..the second screen shot is IE.

What you changed was not part of the chat. It was a template. Revert. ;)

I realize it was not part of chat...I changed some CSS not a template. If I try to revert the default style templates (which doesn't work either) it says "nothing to do"

Ranger187 11-13-2008 08:07 PM

Whatever changes YOU made, you have to undo. The results of it doing what it's doing are because of you. Undo those changes. ;)

dyna88 11-13-2008 10:16 PM

I did but that still shouldn't effect my default template....I guess I will probably just have to use a different chat box because this one has me stumped...LOL

Ranger187 11-13-2008 10:58 PM

It's not the chatbox, it's the files YOU changed.

dyna88 11-13-2008 11:06 PM

But I didn't change any files today all I did was change the font color for .vbmenu_control in a style other then default. I made absolutely no changes to the default style yet it is effected also.

The only modified php file is class core and that was done a few days ago.

Ranger187 11-13-2008 11:41 PM

You keep stating you changed stuff elsewhere. ;)

If that's the case, uninstall the chat, remove the files, reinstall and it will work. If it doesn't....it'sbecause you changed something else.

Stupid question regarding other channels. How do I get the image to show?

I have tried everything I know with the following statement:

Name of the channel image
Don't put the file extension nor the sel/nosel/new suffix.
The images must be uploaded in the images/misc/mgc_cb_evo/channels folder.


And can not seem to get the image to show.

Thoughts?

Thanks for your help.
