So I assume that it checks the posts that the users do after the installation of the mod
If so I believe that is not correct. I have members that have more than one post but maybe they will not post for some days.
Can you please check it out??
Becareful there are two usergroup permissions one for the number of posts and one for the number of posts per day !
This is perhaps the number of posts per day that you have set no ?

Can someone make me a summary of what is working and what is not on the current version plz so that I can fix what need to be fixed. Too much posts to read ...
I am also having troubles with the channels showing text instead of the .gif for team and pm. I noticed for the General channel that the image called for in the coding is not the same as the image name. I am having troubles getting the Gen channel to show anything. Could this be one of the issues or has it always been this way?
In the coding it calls for <img id="mgc_cb_evo_channel_$channel[chanid]_on"
But in my channel image directory, it is called mgc_cb_gen_channel_sel.gif.
Is the evo and gen confusing the program?
I may be way off base, learning the coding stuff.
Another thing that I have noticed is that images folder for vB has the small i, and with the folder in the download package has the large I (Images).
I've noticed that you are sending the entire contents of the chat table with each ajax request. I think it would be better if you only sent some sort of javascript array (json) with the new entries, and an empty response if no new messages were sent.
It will save on javascript processing (possibly javascript memory leakage as well) and on bandwidth considering this auto refreshes every x seconds.
