We ran into a little issue updating to the newest version today.

1) PMs still don't work for many (I use firefox works for me, some others that use firefox it doesn't work)

2) My programmer said you would know what this meant:

plugin: mgc_cb_evo/plugins/fetch_userinfo_query.php
add <?php


** Edit ** Now my PMs aren't working again

Regarding PMs, please ask your users to empty their cache. I ran a test and it works.

Regarding 2, yeah <? works but <?php is indeed better, this is I think the only place where I didn't do it...

Can anyone assist with a work around for broken chatbox size in Chrome/IE/Safari? Chatbox displays correctly in FF but in the other three browsers the chatbox over spans forum borders by a looooooong way.
VB Ver 3.8.7
MGC Ver. 3.2.3 clean install after removing ver 3

TIA

3.2.3 works for me with Vb 4.1.11 but notifications still not showing. Though it really better than 3.0.0 so much.

Thanks for the nice mode.

What's the point of sending such a post ? That doesn't help fixing possible issues...

By not showing do you mean that the block isn't there ?

Can you please check wether the block of the chatbox is here or not in the forum & moderator menu > Blocks manager ?
