I have refreshed the browser cache. I just installed 2.02, and now, all I see is "loading" and when I try to post a message in chat, I get this following error:


"Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error."

Hi VBDev,

I have 3 issues:

1)
Suppose we have a thread title as
Code:
GS"Champion
It appears at Chatbox as
Code:
GS"Champion
I think there is a typing mistake of quote?

2)
I informed you via e-mail but may be you forgot within joyfull times of Christmas
Row heights of Opera and internet explorer are different.
Check 2 screens below.

3)
I have a membergroup that can see some specific forums.
When a new thread is posted or a reply is given, alert at the chatbox is visible to unregistered users. But once the user is logged on, everything is as supposed to be.

VBDev, thank you for the new version!!!

I have previously been running v1.1 and it was awesome. Took me some time to get past the "Loading" issues but I finally got it.

Of course now that I have installed the new version I get the infinite "Loading" issue once again. I have tried all the old "hacks" and tricks that I used to get it working on v1.1 but I still can't get it past "Loading" on the new version. I have kept my modded .htaccess file for the mod_security fix, I have added the var SECURITYTOKEN = 0 to my .js files, and deleted the customavatar.height_thumb etc etc strings from the PHP files. Nothing working yet.

I am running vb 3.6.6 just for reference. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!

When you told me that I checked and I didn't experienced that in Opera. Which version of Opera do you have ?
