It didnt work for me straight after. I had to log out and the Ctrl+F5

Have a look over the last few pages. You will see the quick fix. Manual edit or the files you can download.

This might be a dumb question but I installed the mod and everything looks good including the admin panel but how do I get into chat? I don't see anything.

[Ranger187]

Did you enable it, and also enable it in usergroups? Also RTF. Meaning read the docs that come with it God knows I hate doing it, but it helps.

[dklassen]

Yep is was enabled but I thought as admin I could automatically see it without changing my permissions.

BTW, can you control the width. I have a fixed width forum and it's blowing out the right side.

Thanks.

[Ranger187]

You have to edit the template....

[dklassen]

Can you tell me what I need to edit in what template? Sorry, I'm not a coder.

[Ranger187]

Me either brotha.... But I do know the coder/designer of this plugin would know... Try PM'n him he's pretty good about responding.
