Ok, I just fixed it....

I put the code below in the config.php file which sorted it out

define('DISABLE_HOOKS', 1);

Does anyone know why I had this error?

Is their a way to remember the setting for each user? If no, will you be planning to add this function to the chatbox?
It's not implemented yet. But yes I'd be glad to.

Feature requests are to be made in my project tools page on my forum.

Have you reverted templates ?

Pretty straightforward, you are missing files...

First of all, thank you.

I installed a new theme, I want to be active in the chat box, only the old theme. But the chat box is active in both. How can I set to work only themes. thanks

"Site error: the file /forum/mgc_cb_evo/plugins/fetch_userinfo_query.php requires the ionCube PHP Loader ioncube_loader_fre_5.3.so to be installed by the website operator. If you are the website operator please use the ionCube Loader Wizard to assist with installation."

I deleted all the files and it showed a different file as each file was being deleted from my server.

I have no idea how to do anything with ioncube loader."

got it fixed. apparently yahoo does not allow ioncube or editing of the .ini file. note this that yahoo sucks as hosting. switched to hostgator and they seem to be pretty awesome. this chat mod is the best out right now. kudos to the creator!

Personally don't see how reverting templates has anything to do with it. I copied the real forums (themes, plugins, database) exactly the same to my local PC. It worked on my local PC, just not on the real forums.

It's like the server Apache or SQL version of the whole website/database is messing it up not being compatible with your chatbox.

Using: PHP Version 5.3.10-pl0-gentoo
