Still no luck...is it required to have 3 copies of the custom image?

each image is in 3 parts, if you look at the others you will see what i mean,
upload your image to /yourforum/images/misc/mgc_cb_evo/channels/


If the team channel works then its prob your not uploading them to correct folder

Bug: I Just Noticed that when I Try to Apply a Bold or an Italic or an Underline, and also when I try to Apply a Color, it Applies it to All the Chat Message, even if I'm selecting the Words I'd like to Apply it to.

How can I Correct this?

(this is happening on all Explorers, IE, FireFox and Chrome).

I also noticed that the ChatBox Input Text Field is Working with WYSIWYG; is there a way to Change it to the Simple/Stardard BBCode Mode?

I Appreciate Your Guide and Help, Specially to Solve the Bug.

My Best Regards.

When Trying to Edit a Second Message, the First Post (with Edit Box Still Activated), Activates, and No Matter What I Write on the Second Box, if I Click Outside or I Type Enter, the 2 Boxes Still Activated; when I Change to Chat History I can see that the Second Post takes the same Message than the First One.

Also, When I Click on the Refresh Button while with the Edit Boxes, No Refresh Takes Place and the Boxes are Still There.

I'm running the ChatBox on vB 373, and I also Noticed (previous to Update to New Version), that this Bug comes from the Last Version, (I haven't Edited Messages and I usually do it on the History so that's why I haven't reported this Bug Before).

I Checked on FireFox, on Internet Explorer and on Chrome, and the same Error Happens on All of them.

I Hope You Can Reproduce this Bug and Correct it on your Next Update.

My Best Regards and Thanks Again For the Update. :up:



Edit 1: I Remembered that I Had the "Automatic refresh activation" Option Set to "No" and the "Refresh rate in seconds" set to Zero "0"; I set the first Option to "Yes" and the Second One to a Number of Seconds (30), and then the Edits Worked Fine.

I Think that's Still a Bug There because the Message Edits Should Update No Matter if the Automatic Refresh Activation is set to "No" and/or the "Refresh rate in seconds" is set to Zero "0" (Deactivated), because is an Edit, and the Refresh Button is Present (I'm Supossed to Refresh the ChatVox With It).

My Best Regards.



Edit 2 (Partial Solution): If I Set the "Automatic refresh activation" Option Set to "No" and the "Refresh rate in seconds" to a Number Different than Zero "0" for Admin Usergroup, I noticed that Edits Can be Done Well and the ChatBox is Refreshed after Each Post Edit. :up:

But Still is Important that You Check Why if "Refresh rate in seconds" is set to Zero "0" the ChatBox Doesn't Refresh After an Edit and the Errors I mentioned Before my First Edit to this Post, are Happening.

Again, My Best Regards.

So If I summarize your bug :
  1. You have refresh rate to 0 but automatic refresh to off
  2. You edit 1 chat
  3. You edit a 2nd chat while first still being as input
  4. You then have the You get 2 boxes and none updates
Am I correct ?
  1. You

That's not a bug, that's how it's meant to work now.
