OK I figured out how to keep all your old chats from previous version. I experimented with versions 0.5.0 and 1.0.0 and was able to successfully save all my old chats so that they were in the archive's and in the chatbox when upgrading to the new 1.1.0

***BACKUP YOUR DATABASE BEFORE ATTEMPTING THIS***

When upgrading from 1.0.0 to 1.1.0

DO NOT uninstall the old version first, instead simply copy and replace all the new files that are in the 1.1.0 zip file into your forum directory.
Then in the adminCP goto "Manage Products" then "Add/Import Product". Select the new 1.1.0 xml file, Set "Allow Overwrite" to "YES" and then click "Import".
That's IT! If you need to import your language then do so now. Also you may have to clear your browser cache before the chats will show up. But that's all I had to do when upgrading from 1.0.0 to 1.1.0

Then in the adminCP under the "Maintenance" tab click on "Excute SQL Query". Then your going to excute a manual query...
Code:
```
UPDATE mgc_cb_evo_chat SET coidentifier='0'
```

If your using a version BELOW 0.5.0 you could still try using the same steps that I listed for upgrading from 0.5.0 to 1.1.0 They may work I'm not sure like I said I only tested 0.5.0, and 1.0.0
