Hi there,

After uninstalling the chatbox I got a major issue - I cannot modify usergroups anymore. Every time I get the following error:

The way I removed MGC Chatbox Evo is by deleting the product from Vbulletin and also deleting the following files from the forum folder:
- mgc_cb_evo_ajax.php
- mgc_cb_evo.php
- and the entire mgc_cb_evo folder

Could you please assist me with this error?

Thank you,

Kirill

Hi guys,

I think I have sorted it out - there were some files in admincp and includes that I had to delete. Also I dropped the MGC columns from the database.

Cheers,
Kirill

Hey,

The images seem to be broken. I put the .DB_Store thing in the misc/ folder and put the respective MGC folder containing all of the images in the misc/ folder as well and the images for the chat still seem to be broken. What am I doing wrong?

[vinkenier]

How to fix the loading problem?
I have the pro version working for a few years now...

[the one]

Ok i have had this chatbox installed for over a year and did not realise you could use these commands below i thought it was just for the pro version.How do i get these commands to work.For example this command /slap you can now use this ,but when i go to use it in the chat box for example it does this /slap uid 1 whats supposed to happen

Many commands available with usergroup/user permissions to access them:
/me: well known IRC command
/del: remove shouts (different possibilities of removal)
/ignore: ignore shouts from another user
/ban: ban user from chatbox
/pm: send a private chat to another user
/announcement: modify the announcement on top of the chatbox
: allow user to slap another user
/team: chats sending between specified usergroups
/l33t: I33t-ify a message

Many thanks

Malc

One question.

There are chat choose = ignore users.

But if you ignore someone, you NEVER EVER see him chats.

What if someone wants to cancel that ignore choose?
There are no cancel buttons.
