Good news dear users, the chatbox has been fully ported to vB4 and greatly tested by some gently users. I just released the BF version on forumcoding and will be posting it here on monday
This new release is only a port with some bug corrections, few new functionalities and a new notification (new registration, only included in the BF version). I also wanted to tell you that the BF version price has been lowered to 15$ which seems a more fair price to me.
I know not strictly the correct place for this question but I have the vb4 bf version and I used the original vb3.8x version and is it my imagination or bad memory that when a user typed something it would show up on other peoples screen immediately who was in the chatbox?
At the moment it will only show when the auto refresh happens?! It was not always this way was it?!
Also something has not been translated in the settings:
Activation des notifications de nouvelles inscriptions
Activer l'envoi automatique d'un message dans la chatbox lorsqu'un utilisateur s'inscrit sur le forum (après validation si le forum nécéssite une vérification des emails)

Support for BF version is normally on forumcoding you should have post there.

Well the refresh of the online users has a time defined in options, perhaps you didn't set it ?

There is a separate language file for this addon. Haven't you imported it ?
