I ran into the Ionloader issue as well. I need hosting to install it I guess. Went back to 3.0 and now it says theres a security token missing?

I have put this on my test site before i put it on our live site but i am getting......

Quote:
Site error: the file /home/csaleagu/public_html/testvb/mgc_cb_evo/plugins/init_startup.php requires the ionCube PHP Loader ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so to be installed by the website operator. If you are the website operator please use the ionCube Loader Wizard to assist with installation.
So i asked my server host about ionCube here's there reply....

The ionCube loader is already enabled in the server. Please verify it from the snippet below:

Quote:
+++++++++++
[root@starscream public_html]# php -i|grep ionCube
with the ionCube PHP Loader v4.0.9, Copyright (c) 2002-2011, by ionCube Ltd., and
ionCube Loader
[root@starscream public_html]#
+++++++++++
So i am not sure what to do ?

Haha! You sound like me.

I used to go there like multiple times a day and then when I added up how much I spent there a month, realized I could buy a second vehicle with the amount spent.

I now goto Sheetz for their Chai Tea ($1.82) compared to Five Bucks (My new nickname for Starbucks) $4.92...

My friends still are in disbelief that I disowned Five Bucks.

Is this a FRESH install of the new version 3.2.1 or did you upgrade/update it from a previous version?

I would uninstall the product via the readme files instructions and then reinstall it.

Thank you
I have noted the bug, I'll look into it as soon as I can along with other reported bugs

If you plan on translating the chatbox in greek, you should look @ my site, I am looking for translators in other languages, they get a compensation.

More details on it.
