BTW, when checking the Scheduled Task Log Viewer it displays allright the actions (Old messages of MGC Chatbox removed), but old shouts are still there.

Maybe, but it's not really a problem, rather than annoying. I won't give it further thinking, until any of my users notice it.

Have you tested on a local test forum with the same parameters for the scheduled tasks ?

Thanks

This requires some modification coding, unless you have those skills I can't be of any help for the moment, I'm sorry.

Basically you'd need to add a field in the mgc_chatbox sql table to log ip, and modify the request that insert a shout in the database (in the mgc_chatbox.php file).
