You may edit messages by double clicking on them (If you have permission to do so), delete messages by clicking on the '#' in front of your messages, send a user a private message by single clicking their name, or speed up/slow down the speed messages are typed at by pressing the 'up' or 'down' arrow keys on your keyboard.

For some reason this mod seems to knock out the ability to switch editor within articles in the CMS. I disabled this mod and everything worked perfectly again.

Thought I would give you the heads up.

how can I change charset codding from ISO-1 in ISO-2

[SynTaX404]

1. fix the table spewage
2. get rid of the one by one shout loading thing you have going on
3. fix the shoutbox shout loading order or give an option to reverse the order (we are used to infernoshout!!)
4. instead of the delete message command thing make it pop up above the shoutbox like inferno (mods are clumsy)
5. tabbed pm like mgc and inferno

most of the things i have suggested are from inferno considering it was the best shoutbox and the developer disappeared 2 years ago.

I've had two users report that they somehow muted themselves? I don't even have mute enabled, and never told anyone how to use the mute feature. Any suggestions how to fix?

[valendono]

uninstalled.. lot of commands not work.. only /prune is working, even I don't know why is /me not working.

[ninjashoes]

Any chance you will add an option to turn off smilies in the shoutbox good sir?

Did you enable the commands in the usergroup permissions?
