well seems like many of us have problems, this is a reall nice chat box i just get loading......vbulletin 3.6.9. dont know if its a problem im also using cyb chatbox one for vip acces and one for regular members.......inferno worked fine.........
Well if you are using vB3.6.9 and are encountering errors then it must be because of a step you forgot during install.
Have you done the security token tip stated in the readme ?
There are no compatibility problems with cyb chatbox. While doing the import scripts for the 2.0.2 version in december I even add all the stated chatbox system my import script handles installed and no problem

When I say that works on forum, I meen - posts with our specials charachters working without any problems (like on this forum ) We CAN write ?Đ?ČĆ and everything is showing up like here Forum works with FULL enable AJAX functions (on General Settings is selected Enable All AJAX Features).
When I try to send some tekst with any of special characters, tekst disapear and nothings show up on chatbox. Whe I try to send anything else (with or without special characters) I got this error:
Error : A chat is already being processed, please wait.
Only REFRESH fix chat and I can again to send messages (without special characters).... Any idea where is a problem?
Thanks again.....
Could you try something for me please. Select the english language as your language in your user profile and then try to makes shouts with those special characters. Any changes ?
I cannot get this to show up either! I have installed this correctly AND I followed all the instructions. Also the fix in the text file for custom teplates in the plugins $search does not exist at all in the plugin edit specified! whats the deal?
EDIT ALSO everytime I set the admin permissions after I save it creates a new admin group? Are you sure this is compatible with 3.8?

Sure... I already use English, but now I try with other language, and I have a same problem!!! I install brand new and clean vBulletin and try it there without any other plugins.... Same problem
On Chrome browser, when I try to enter text with our special characters, I have this alert:
Alert:
Ajax error: an error has occured in an ajax request of the chatbox, please report your admin
And if I try to send another message, I got error
Error : A chat is already being processed, please wait.
