Thanks.... being computer illiterate most of the time, I'm not sure what a ShoutBox is or how to configure ChatBox that way ...

In any event, I put it under the Navbar in out off-topic forum, so it's only displayed when members go in there. We'll try it for a while and see how it goes.

Some members are already asking if there's any kind of optional user setting for an alert system that would tell them if new messages have been posted to the ChatBox?

Thanks again for your work...
