Upgraded and now when I go to submit a message I get this error:

Ok, reverted template and it seems to work.

I may dump all these box chats and go with arrowchat once it is released.

$65.00 for something that is not as good as free, I don't think so. That is the pre-sale price without any kind of demo. Since this is the second time you have metioned this in this thread I assume that you must have some kind of connection to the people who made it or I should say are making it.

Getting the following error when trying to add an article in the CMS:

Code:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare vsacb_userexcluded() (previously declared in /home/XXXXX/public_html/packages/vbcms/controller/content.php(84) : eval()'d code:64) in /home/XXXXX/public_html/packages/vbcms/controller/content.php(84) : eval()'d code on line 64

Hello,

the color dropdown is not working also after the update into Safari browser:
So you can choose the colors and if you click one you also see it but the dropdown is complete white. It would be nice if that can be changed (see also screenshot).

Think what you may, but you'd be wrong in that assumption. As you can tell from my post, I have dabbled with just about every chatbox you can think of - to include...
FlashChat, ASPChat (yes ASP - you'd be surprised what you can do with cookies), 123Chat, ProChatRooms, Off-Site Chats, CYBChat, Inferno, MCG Chat (which I paid for and mentioned it is in the process of being updated), as well as GCBOS (which I gave props too as well) and many many others... I hope this chat does work out great, it is the best "normal" chatbox released yet (for 4.0) - albeit with a few kinks. However my users demand an alert sound (which seems minor to some developers and is rarely found in these types of chat engines - minus MCG Chat) and I look for a chat I can easily integrate across the entire site without a lot of template problems - like the arcade, gameroom, photopost addons and other content (which is why I mention other addons such as arrowchat) - So yes, I mention it because had not someone mentioned it in a similar post here - I would not have known it existed....

balkanboy · #**198** 02-09-2010, 02:30 AM

mmm if i was too pay i most certainly will purchase arrowchat....which btw looks promising so tempted to purchase a chat system like Facebook which should be accessible on any page.... mmmmmmm
