Can anyone tell me how to remove copyright notice? Thanks. And yes I have paid for premium version so I am entitled to remove copyright notice.
THANK YOU I WORKED OUT HOW TO DO IT MYSELF.
I really wish this chatbox had the option to view IP's of guests for admins, and able to ban the specific IP temp.
I thought I implemented the possibility to view guests IP. Haven't I ? (It's permission based)

Well you should have asked on forumcoding You just have to replace the files with the one of the BF archive that you have certainly downloaded in your download center on forumcoding and then import the BF product
About the PM in chat, what makes you think it doesn't work ?
Have you check that you are using the right syntax ?
If I enter the syntax, it works perfect! I cant rely on all my members doing it that way. Is there a way to fix the button? Or possible to reupload a new file? Thanks
Is there any way to have auto notifications in the chat box when someone gets a high score in the arcade (ibproarcade), becomes a new champion, or creates a tournament?
Though, curious. Possible you can give Guests Avatars? They are using text "avatar" now
I have fixed that in the next release, guests get the default avatar now

Thanks so much.
There is no private chatting is there?
Channels are based on permissions, have you set them correctly ?
You have to replace the swf file and refresh your browser cache
Well not in specific tabs as inferno shoutbox did but it's a planned feature
