vb.org Archive - Chat Modifications

Nope, that's not it, the image files are there, etc. As I said later in the thread, the problem is the URL path is not being generated correctly and that's where the problem stems from.

Unless you are 3.8, it's a template issue on your side. I've only seen a few bugs otherwise with 3.8

Trek	01-12-2009 09:52 PM

I'm using 3.8. It's a template issue, in that the Replacement variable {IF} isn't being resolved before the path is passed to a urlencode function. Where this is happening, I don't know. So, while I think you're right in general, I also think this could be a problem for anyone using a custom template with a custom variable in the images path.

Not arguing that. I haven't had any issues in 3.8 on any of my sites but I expect more to pour in shortly with it going gold only a few days ago and people update.

I'm sure VBdev will have some fixes soon as he gets whatever info he needs. I suck at templates. ;)

Same problem here, cant fix the security token thing cuz there is no mgc_cb_evo.js

edit: I added that line to all three .js files and it works now. someone should update the readme

The security token for versions < 3.6.10 and < 3.7.0 RC4 goes in the very top of mgc_cb_evo.js which should be in your clientscript folder, if installed correctly at least.

Thanks!

Well sorry. About that , currently you are the only one who asked for a modification of the timeframe from 24 hours, to hours or minutes.
Unless there are other interested, I won't change that.

Yes I removed them as they in my opinion where of no use in the archives.

Is this intended functionality?

Either way, where can I change it?

I think you haven't uploaded the images of the chatbox in your style misc directory.

So the problem is actually that the variable $stylevar['imgdir_misc'] is getting URLencoded before vB does whatever replacements it needs to do. Or at least whatever string is including that variable for the image output is getting URLENCODED too soon. Again, I don't know where this is happening, but I'm trying to figure it out.

UPDATE
-------

Ok, I found the exact cause now, it's my custom theme. It has a custom variable called {IF} (Images Folder) which translates to "%7BIF%7D" when it's URLDECODED. So somewhere within this mod I'd guess that it needs to check/process the replacement variables when building the images folder variable ($stylevar['imgdir_misc']). I have no idea where that might be or how to do it though.

------------
Ok, I found what the problem is, just not a solution yet.

I searched this thread and found one other person with the problem, although no solution was posted.

The problem is, somewhere the text "%7BIF%7D" is getting inserted into the image URL paths. I've done some searches and cannot find this text anywhere.

Well how is this {IF} normally interpreted ? You have a plugin for that coming with the theme ?

Well it's in the footer, of the chatbox that doesn't seem much illogical. About the MGC Chatbox Evo, JFYI it's an option that you can edit ...

Trek	01-13-2009 05:25 AM

It's just a standard vB template replacement variable, {IF} should be replaced with "images/shadow". But it's not happening in those variables (the misc folder one) with your mod. How it's "normally" done, by vB I guess, it's native to vB, not 3'rd party.

Clicked UNINSTALLED due to copyright being is the most silliest place and looks a mess in that small font gone over to Cyb shoutbox.

Started out great as a free mod now the developer is getting to greedy asking for $20.00 to remove the copyright when everyone who uses VB knows what shoutbox it is.

He's on here probably 7 days a week supporting this. He doesn't have to do that. No other shoutbox/chatbox out there is as feature rich as this one.

It is worth either the copyright or the $20. I think it's a small price to pay for this to be honest. I think you're being greedy asking for something like this for nothing!

The footer of the page would have been much better placement though. Copyright info in the middle of a page looks out of place.

How do I go about changing the MGC Chatbox Evo title? I tried to find that the other day with no luck.

Man I really need to read more. I didn't see the branding free purchase link in this thread and I didn't see the title changing option in general options.

I must apologize for my previous negative posts.

Going to purchase the branding free version once I recoup from buying a template.

Well I for one understand what is to work my butt off for others for nothing, only to have a few cry about something trivial yet well deserved in such a disrespectful manor.

I will be paying the $20.00 and will KEEP the branding/copyright just to counteract such opinions and to keep MGC motivated in his efforts to provide a great piece of code for FREE!

Thank You MGC!

Hey VB, one of my users on the forums is unable to switch "Show the chatbox:" in his userCP to "yes", when he attempts to do so, it automatic switches back to no. Any idea what's going on? I checked his usergroup and chatbox settings, and they are fine. No one on his usergroup is having the issue.

Well I don't want to show off but just get through the options and you will see...

The number of options, features, and possibility of customization are way more important and you have the ability to create channels...

Just think at the number of hours passed on the mod and you perhaps would understand.

Anyway It's your opinion and I respect it of course ! Peace man :)

Was that English? ;) Use bane on a server? Flashchat uses more if you are not using the ajax version.

This uses ajax so you shouldn't notice any performance issues.

Well seems like the chatbox didn't install correcty (as per the error).

The iswarning field shall have been created in the mgc_cb_evo chat table upon chatbox install.

Are you sure it's up to the right version in product system ?
