I use this code.......
hmm. weird. Your code works for me - see picture. (of course without the graphics in the source code because the urls are different). But it works, the code is correct.

CMPS:
do you have a created html module?
have you created a new template and then insert your source code?
and the template (for example: adv_portal_vsa_chatbox) inserted into the module?
Module Wrapper Template set to use no? (see picture)

I could find an answer posted already so here's my question?

How would I move the chatbox from under the navbar to say the header, sidebar, vb cms, etc?

I couldn't find any .css for it in the style manager and can only find how to resize it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Installed, like it and removed it. It seems every chatbox is having scrolling issues. Using Chrome and if a chat box gets a scroller because of too many text, it won't scroll down to the latest message. Even when you already scrolled down entirely, a new message won't show up as you'll have to scroll down again..

Whitey, use the "{vb:raw vsachatbox}" code in any template to customize it's appearance in a different position. Make sure you disable the auto-insert first (the option where you set it above the footer, below the forums, etc)

Sorry if already explained but i just find a fix in languages (not easy with other mods)


To fix date / hour bug


Go into OPTIONS -> VSA Chatbox

Find fields.

Date format (blank to disable)
Time format

Replace content
d-m ----> %d-%m
H:i ----> %H:%M

OK how would I implement that code in somewhere like the global 1 header advert spot?

Valter,
Nice mod, I appreciate being able to use it. Curious as to what if any improvements you have in store.
I'd like to see avatars added to chat line and admin tools in the chat front end.

Cheers,
helwoe

Presumably you have your permissions set incorrectly AdminCP>Settings>Options>Vsa Chatbox>Permissions.
