Is there any way to allow users to set or keep a default font and/or colour for the chatbox? they're complaining that they have to set the font and colour each time they submit a message.

Thanks

Can you try the following product update ?

I have not tested it but it should fix the bug.

Please once installed test that the chatbox display in forumhome, forumdisplay and showthread still works and doesn't fire any error. And also test the chatbox display on all pages.

If that fixes it I will release it officially.

With this product you still have the errors ??

You shouldn't have any of those errors anymore.

Have you select the chatbox to be displayed on all the pages ? If yes then I think you might have a customized chatbox template that you need to revert.

Greetings.

There is an "unclosed" Code in the german Version of mgc_cb_evo_cmd_del.xml.

Here is the fixed one.

installed thanks.


so its in my admincp and set to Yes to activate but not showing up on my forum. what am I doing wrong?


1/ Upload the files from the "Files" directory in your forum root
2/ Upload the content of the "Images" directory in each of your forum styles directories
3/ Import the MGC Chatbox Evo product
4/ Go in your admincp, in the Language manager > Download/Upload language file and then :
- Select the language file from the "Lang" directory
- Select the forum language to overwrite
- Set the ignore language verison to Yes
- Launch upload


I didnt see a launch upload anywhere?


also, do I need to install commands?
