"Save the collapsed stae of the BBCODE and smilies lines" does not seem to work. BBcode line and smilies line expands on every page load, if you use ie7. It is working correctly in ff3.
The default setting of that option (=no) is working correctly on both browsers.
Can anyone confirm this bug?
Hum really ? I haven't tested it in ie7 I must admit as I don't own a PC but a Mac as I already said in this thread.
Anyone else experiencing the issue ?

I get /me and then whenever users hit enter they get "votre_message" after their username.
Is there a way to get around that with whenever the user types /me it would just popup their username only?
It's because you have activated the autocompletion in the chatbox, it's helping users out to see what is the correct syntax of the command.
By the way I think you haven't installed the english language

If you're upgrading from an older version (prior to 1.0.0), yes there have been many changes and you can't import them.
I think I should work on a save/restore feature in the chatbox someday.

It's normal if you are upgrading for a version prior to 1.0.0, you have to uninstall. It's stated in the readme file instructions.
I seem to have lost the chat in my arcade but I' not sure when. I checked the placement of the variable in the ARCADE page, the presence in the other pages option of the chat config and finally, the function page but it's still not appearing...
Anyone got any additional information for what might be missing?
Would the fact that I need to preface the link to member.php with $vboptions[bburl]/ in the chatbit_menu for it to link correctly from CMPS mean anything is wrong in my settings?
I've checked and do have both mgc_cb_evo and mgc_cb_evo_var in Portal Output Global Variables.

Have you uninstalled the chatbox since then ? Coz perhaps the settings is not set anymore ?
