Got a similar problem here as with the vB 3.5 shoutbox: colours. The button/text colours need looking at, though... I'm sure it looks OK on a lot of boards. Other than that it's looking pretty neat. If that gets fixed I may well install.
not sure what the problem is... the chatbox should use the same style the member is currently using
i used vbadvanced and made it a module, that is all. no editing the plugin itself required. somebody explain to me how to take out the TIME though and just not have that shown at all.

in chatbox_lite.php, change this
Code:
$time = vbdate($vbulletin->options['timeformat'], $shout['dateline']);
// if shout wasn't made today, show day
if (vbdate('jny', $shout['dateline']) != vbdate('jny')) {
$time = vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'], $shout['dateline'], true) . ' ' . $time;
}
echo '['.$time.'] <em>'.$shout['username'].$del.'</em>: '.$parsed.'<br />'

Would it be possible to let us know what you had to do to make it into a vbadvanced module? :nervous:
thank you dream... thanks alot for getting at me about this.
but there's no way to have the avatars displayed instead of the name right? i know i'm asking for quite alot, but alot of people have been looking for this. i'm getting pms just for requesting it like:
did you find anything yet?
booth... sure why not... the next time i run into my admin cp, i'll certainly hook that up. now please just take my link out of your post.

not sure where the avatars info is stored in the database, that might require more queries, and slow it down alot depending on your forum traffic, or it may be already there in the $vbulletin variable or something. ill check it out when i get some time.

usergroup permissions is already implemented, you edit chatbox_lite.php and add in "$cantshout = array(x,x,x,x)" where x are the usergroups that cant use the chatbox.
with template conditionals you can show the chatbox only to a couple usergroups. people can still read it if they know the chatbox address though.
about implementing ajax in this hack, I dont see a point to it other than getting rid of the iframe border in Internet Explorer... and the page blinking doesnt bother me, I kinda like to see that the chatbox is refreshing.
