On a side note when I as an admin type /team TESTTESTTEST it shows no where but if I look at the team archives then i can see the message.

Seriously any help would be appreciated.

How do you set usergroups for a channel ? Once you have created a channel, you have to change them in the command attached to the channel.

Oh ok sorry I must have not well understood your question

Or does the channel work without javascript as well? I tested it and it just showed a "loading..." message but I forgot to check if I could post stuff on it. Maybe there should be a fallback with iframe that refreshes every x seconds instead of ajax. Ofcourse that won't be able to use the new functionality you are hopefully going to incorporate (json ) but I think only a small part of the usrs will have javascript disabled. Maybe you should also do a check to see if ajax is enabled (and put that value in a cookie so as not to check on every page) and if not use the iframe fallback.

Btw, this message:

"Error : you can't send a private chat to this user as he doesn't have the necessary permissions to use this feature.
"

should be "he/she", not just "he"

This is perhaps the case for other phrases, I will correct it but it won't be a top priority task !

If you activate the warning system yes.

That way, users also won't make any mistakes by inadvertedly forgetting to type /pm first or mistyping it and thus releasing sensitive information on the public channel.

I am not very fan of the tabs.

Btw it would need full recoding of the template and I don't have time for it. Remember I do it for free during my free time

I don't understand this point.
