Hmm, the chat import from MGCChatbox 1.5 doesn't work - I've a table prefix and there is no error about, only the successfully message, but no chat item were imported from the prefix_mgc_chatbox table.
There is no such table in the MGCChatbox. The table that stores all the chats is called "mgc_chatbox" there is no "prefix_mgc_chatbox".
Hi- I wonder how the limit on chats per 24hrs is counted... if it is 1:32 now.... Is it updated per min? (1:32 pm today to 1:31pm yesterday) per hour? (1pm today to 12:59pm yesterday) per day? (12pm -11:59am daily) Just so I can get a better idea of when a person is over how long of not chatting it takes to update.
Also, when I turned it on today- I had to turn it up to almost 4000 I know he posts a lot, but I don't think that much
Thanks!

edited: just used the find all posts by user and I count about 105 in the past 24hrs... not 4000 *shrug* but there are 3525 by the same person in the current history. and I just had to up his from 3500 so I guess it's going by that count. Which goes back to Dec 18th.
When the kind users that used to do the translation will update them. I don't manage them so ask directly the corresponding users

No no the number of posts in the last 24hours to allow user to see the chatbox is a dynamic count I just checked the code and no issue in it.
