I installed it at Beta 4 and was working fine but now i upgraded to 3.7.0 Beta 6 and now its giving me database error.
Some thing isnt working in vbshout.php
Thanks
There is no such file in my chatbox, are you sure you didn't say a mistake ?
About the database error please tell me or I won't be able to answer you.
this is prollly a dum question but I cant get the team image to show up in the edit a channel area
I'm stumped to what I put in Name of the channel image / Don't put the file extension nor the sel/nosel suffix. Must be a early mourning brain fart if some one could help me that would be great much appriciated
i am wondering when i install the chatbox is it gonna effect the website and get is slower? is it going to load more add to Cpu or constrains the server?

It will of course depends of the configuration you choose
If you set a refresh rate far too low, then you server will slow down, however if you use a normal refresh rate everything should run fine.
When I try to unzip the [vB3.6.x-vB3.7.x]MGC_Chatbox_Evo_0.3.0.zip (using Window's XP builtin unzip software) I get:
Password Needed for file 'mgc_cb_evo_cmd'. Clicked on Skip File and got a bunch more files that required a password to unzip.
Note: I had no problem unzipping MGC_Chatbox_Evo_0.2.1.zip.
Does anyone have a workaround or know what I'm doing wrong here?
Got a quick question. I've done the temp fix for the banning issue. People do get banned now but only after 10 minutes or so. What is up with that? They instantly get a PM saying that they are banned but they can moan about it for 10 more minutes before they can't use the shoutbox anymore.
I hope you know a fix for this problem coz it really messes my shoutbox up.
