Sorry about that i know u do this in ur free time and i apriciated thank you for your time,Now what is this about a Pass u mention???? the sound is located in the mgc_cb_evo/clientscript and i do have it enable.
I am talking of the correction to apply in the js file to correct the file path to access the sound.
He he Well you should have to edit the Display management plugin and remove the additionnal br.
I just removed all the <br /> tags in the display management plugin and somehow it didn't have any effect. I must be doing something wrong . Do you want me to provide a seperate admin login for my site to make it a little easier for you to help?
This is the only thing that's stopping me using this shoutbox right now . Thanks for the help.
sorry to highjack your thread but need a chat mod makers input
an external java based chat , that also has camara and voice
I think that would be the next big thing in here , you used to be able to use skype on VB but they changed the way skype works and I dont think thats possible anymore
EVO can you look into this and tell me whats the story on the cam in chat deal?
you can see a pic here of a widget i made for my board that uses this java script to do this
:erm:
I cannot get the PM tabs working. When I turn it on, it shows the Chatbox tab, but no PM tabs pop up when you send/receive PMs.
"If you activate this option, your users will be able to have the private chats in tabs by clicking on a username.
For each private chat, a new tab is created on user request"
Clicking on the username in the chatbox links to the user's profile page and the down arrow next to the username in the chatbox has nothing about PMing.

Hi,
To get the tab, you have to refresh the page first, then click once on a username.
Those tabs only appear when u click once on a username, not when u just /pm them.
