I hope VBDev doesn't get mad at me for this...haha.. But Send him a PM with your suggestion. FULLY DETAIL YOUR REQUEST AND WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR! He hasn't been here in a few weeks so he might not see this. I have him on Google+ and his forum so I talk to him now and then...

The next version he's having a few issues with some code so it's slow progress...

Do we have anyone out there (coders) familiar with the auto complete in 4.1.x?

I'll keep ya guys posted and try to offer some more support..
Just can't for a few days. Just had dual knee surgery and my couch is looking more comfortable than my chair..

What is, "Ne Pas Afficher"? I selected the English language!! This is my first mod to install on vB. Can anyone tell me what I did wrong. This text is located under Display position on the forum.

So far I can't get it to be viewable. :erm:

Sounds like the Mod_Security issue.

My users nor I (Admin user) can't change their font/color in the chatbox ? I can't find the setting to switch it on or off, and the only color in use is the default one set in the usergroup settings? Anything i'm missing ?

I've tried it with inputting the color or font directly using bbcode, and that works.
