Its not an 'error' as such its a warning in PHP5.3 they depreciated referencing and i haven't got round to recoding GCBOS's commands and core to work without them. For now all that can be done is enabling referencing in php.ini or doing it with ini_set (some hosts disallow this).

Thank your for an explanation.

However when I view my php.ini through admin cp, it's just an output of that file, no changes can be made.

Directive Local Value Master Value
allow_call_time_pass_reference Off Off

Where do I go to change this?

I'm not sure I understand the need for this reference, as I'm only using PHP Version 5.2.6.

[digibyte]

Is it possible to add a menu block "Chat" or "Chatbox" besides the existing menu blocks "Home", "Forum", "Blogs", "What's New?". This block should link to a full-page chatbox version. There can be an option in the admin panel to enable/disable this menu block.

[movslow]

Well after chatting w/my hosting provider, they will not make changes to the php.ini file.

So I assume that leaves us S.O.L.

[movslow]

I went ahead and removed the & in front of output in the class_gcbos file.

Seems to be working so far...so we shall see.
