All posts/threads that are set to "moderation" is being displayed in the chat box. All moderated posts shouldn't be displayed by any of the normal members in my opinion ^^_. I've double checked it, it also shows for public users:



While the thread is "waiting to be accepted".
Yes I still have to improve it I know... The notification also remains when the thread is deleted.

But I agree with you, it could be easier.
May be with a button on the chatbox???
Yeah I was thinking of adding a button.

Including the permissions within each usergroup? admin control panel > User groups > user group manager > edit user group (each one) > MGC Chatbox Evo : Custom permissions (at the bottom....) You need to enable it there for each one, even admin.

Follow the instructions for the language pack.. I think the only things not translated are those fields that you can enter in the admin CP... Fields like: /ban command : Content of the sent PM

Well that is what I am talking about. I don't read French or whatever it may be so I have no clue as to what those settings are...

If you do this part:
Quote:
# Go in the Download/Upload item of the Language manager menu and then:

1. Select the English language file from the Lang folder.
2. Select the forum language to overwrite.
3. Set the Ignore language version option to YES.
4. Launch the upload.
The settings are in English. You just need to change the actual content of a few fields... These are pretty much only in the Command options section of the MGC Chatbox Evo settings though. If you don't see

for the MGC Chatbox Evo in the admin control panel... You need to do the language pack install again/correctly.

I don't know what could cause it to only partially import like that.. but I'm glad you got it. I understood none of it had changed to English and that's why I was saying to follow the language instructions.
