Well that could be added yes, would you like a temporarly sound disabling or like if it was the option in the usercp ?
Hey vbDev.....the error when copying threads and moving posts still exists even after 2.2.1 upgrade.
Here is the error:
This is honestly very very strange I am not able to reproduce that at all.
You experience it for every thread you try to move with inlinemod ?

Any major code changes in the latest version that may cause this?
Well I found out the problem that causes that lag issues. This will be corrected in the next release.

Well you can select the default color for each usergroups chat in the usergroup permissions yes.
Function Display the chats time not working..... !
Let you choose to display or not the time column in the chatbox (it will still be displayed in the archives even if this option is set to NO)
I set this option to YES! Here is a Print Screen of problem - TIME not show in ARCHIVE page, and it's displayed in chat box! I use VB 3.8.1 and Chatbox 2.2.1.
Thanks for great hack....
It is meant to do so. I think it's stated in the options, archives are not affected by this option which seems logical as archives keep chats from long ago.

Also I stated before that registered users seen the chatbox opposite of the settings..This is false. Safari users see the chabox opposite.
Well you can edit the templates if you want but that's not very efficient.
I asked you if that IF thing was default vBulletin working or if you add extra plugins for that ?
About Safari issue, I have it (am on a Mac) and I really don't have that issue.
Perhaps it's because I am running the next release and I corrected many things.

I agree, and I think we not understand (read carefuly my message - maybee my english is not good.... ). In archive page, TIME IS NOT SHOWING! That's the problem I also think that time should display always. Screenshot is from Archive page!
