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.

Would not work for me. Are you sure this is 4.0?

In the GCBOS template:

PHP Code:

<a class="collapse" id="collapse_c_gcbos" href="forum.php#top"><img src="images/buttons/collapse_40b.png" alt="" title="Collapse this Category"></a> 


should be:

PHP Code:

<a class="collapse" id="collapse_c_gcbos" href="forum.php#top"><img src="images/buttons/collapse_40b.png" alt="" title="Collapse this Category" /></a>

*shrugs*, still awaiting a reply to fix my issue. I can't change the forum URL within the adminCP settings from http://forum.xxx.com to forum.xxxx.com so http & https can be used. It makes the chatbox to keep loading all the time.

Working a1 for me on 4.0

Hey we have just installed this on to our site, though i can see it we have members that can't..

I also get this

Also is there no tool box for changing font's and colours? or any ACP control...
Can we change the name to shoutbox or something rather than GCBOS?

[InsomniacP]

This isn't working......? I get all the reports of peoples private messages and extra code here, something isn't right?

The script was working fine, but today i found my email box with + 1450 database error messages, all the same, and i don't know if this script has nothing to do with it.
