Installed, works fine for me. Nice addon.

Small thing, you can't edit texts that have been posted with the /me command. Don't know if this has been said before, but wanted to tell you anyway.

Hi, I have install it, but when I go to under Usergroups->Usergroup Manager->Administrator or other group there isn't a GCBOS option... Why?

- I'd like the ability to switch to 12 hour format for the timestamp
- I'd like to be able to allow the users to choose their own font color to use and have it be remembered (so they aren't choosing it every single time they send something to the shoutbox)
- I'd like to see a smilies box or popup menu or something.

If you could get the commands fixed so they work and those 3 things this would definitely be a Mod of the Month. I mean the PM system notifying you in the shoutbox is just awesome.

Agreed on all this stuff btw. Hope this will be added.

Uninstalled. Found Inferno Shoutbox works for 4.0 so I switched to that. This mod has a lot of potential but needs more work and/or support. Coupled with the fact that this add-on is not compatible with the only add-on available for resizing images AND iTrader ... had to uninstall.

[stevectaylor]

Uninstalled then reinstalled when I upgraded my SQL now wont display at all.

It doesen't show the shoutbox for me, instead I can see the <!-- {SHOUTBOX} --> code in source code. Any solution?

I solved with this:

$message = utf8_decode(trim($_POST['message']));

When I try to accept all users in new user moderation i have such error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare gcbos_command_help() (previously declared in /var/www/vhosts/wayofwar.org/httpdocs/includes/class_gcbos.php(47) : eval()'d code:33) in /var/www/vhosts/wayofwar.org/httpdocs/includes/class_gcbos.php(47) : eval()'d code on line 50
