What do you mean by delays ? The chatbox loading process is the following :
  1. The page loads with the chatbox displayed
  2. Chats are retrieved

I've uninstalled my shoutbox (removed all files and uninstalled product) but now I have installed it the new version and everything works fine except for the inactive mode. When it gets inactive after 10 minutes, you normally have to click on the green arrows to get the text back. However, when I click on the green arrows, I get to see the following:



Isn't really correct is it? Looks pretty darn ugly hehe. When I press F5, it gets back to normal. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance guys!
Hmmm, your screenshot is strangely small, I can't see it maximized.

But I think I know what happens and this is another issue due to the new things that were added in the chatbox. The chats are displayed under the inactive message that's right ?

I'm sure if VBdev could add that as a seperate tick box, bot not sure you would want to remove that from a manage function and isolate it. I wonder if that can be adjusted in the VB settings themself for the usergroups. I think it might be. But again, that starts falling outside the chat schema.
I can do that, I add it to the todo list.

You end up loading js scripts multiple times sometimes 4 times or more and becomes counter productive. Again looking into issue now will let you know what I come up with. Have to load this software on test site to really test.
That's not exactly right ! vB uses only limited parts of yui (only the basis). This is the reason why I decided to use jQuery.

If I was doing it with YUI plugins this would be the same, there would be the same problems, I would be forced to add yui plugins and if other developpers were loading the same script then this would also be counter productive. So I think I will stuck with jQuery.

However, I would be really interested in knowhing what exactly happens with Prototype, can you give me more information on what is going wrong ? (error logs, etc...). Any clues would be appreciable.

Simply open the Style Manager in your AdminCP, click on "edit templates" and revert all templates belonging to the MGC Chatbox.
It seems like the uninstall routine of the MGC Chatbox does not work as expected and is incomplete. It doesn't remove all old templates if you click on "uninstall".

But I found another more serious bug. If you enable the "ban" command in the latest version and enter the command "/ban show", the only thing you can see in the popup is a mysql error message:

Why does the plugin expect a column called "mgc_cb_evo_banned" in the user-table if it didn't create it in installation process? So it seems that not only the uninstallation routine is buggy but also the installation.
Did you uninstall the chatbox prior to installing the new version ? Coz if not then you made it wrong and this could be the reason of your error.
