Reverting a style doesn't break anything. Sounds to me like you already had issues.

If you want, later today I can take a look. PM me a login / password to the forum with admin access and the ftp account login / password so I can reupload/edit the chat files if needed.

I'd do it now but my daughter and I have plans.

Sorry, I have been a bit busy lately and haven't been able to do anything relating to the chatbox.

Yes but I don't understand why it works on your other forum with the default and normal style.

There must be differences between your test forum and your real forum.

2) that problem (Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.), happen using a specific skin, but only with that one, not with default skin, and not with other skin that i have on my forum
using that skin I see the chatbox , but if i type something inside chatbox and then press enter... that message appear
I repeat that i used this "faulty" skin before with version 1.0.0 and it worked, without any problem.
this "security-token" problem is appeared when i just upgraded to 1.1.0 (and i never used security token javascript, not when installed previous 1.0.0. and not when upgraded to 1.1.0)
The chats sending javascript code is ok, the security token is in the called url.

Are you sure it does come from the chatbox ?

With the setting you suggest, i get TOTAL random order, for smiles INSIDE chatbox and for all smilies window too!
I only obtained to have 18 smilies -inside- chatbox with same order of post editor, setting that options to NO/NO (but clicking on "...more" i get the all smilies windows with smilies in random-like order)

I understand that is strange, i can give you a forum admin pw access if you want check (for skin problem too)
I add it to the "bug list" and will have a look.

the command in some way "work", because if i type a username that don't exist, i get the message:
L'utilisateur que vous souhaitez gifler n'existe pas

instead if i type a username existing (inside chatbox) i get no error message... but NOTHING happen.
I asked to users that i "slapped" if they has receveid a message or something, but nothing.
Hum very strange. And if you try using the menu item ?

Yes... thats normaly, if i revert the Templates, because the CSS is then not correct

The Problem exist, that in Forumhome the Text not dislpayed, but in the Achive i can see the Text.

And since the Update, the Chatbox don't displayed in the online.php. I try that....

Thanx for this wonderful chatbox - I have a question please. How do I make the chatbox appear 1st, directly beneath the navbar on forumhome as seen in the screenshot below? I have tried setting the execution order of the Chatbox display on forumhome plugin to 1 - doesn't seem to work though.

Thanx in advance for help

Jacquii.
