You may edit messages by double clicking on them (If you have permission to do so), delete messages by clicking on the '#' in front of your messages, send a user a private message by single clicking their name, or speed up/slow down the speed messages are typed at by pressing the 'up' or 'down' arrow keys on your keyboard.

Can some one having the issues with commands try this product file, if i get a reports of this working i will update the main product later, the reasons commands died was to do with the fix's i made for PHP 5.3

have to go back up the product again ... the problem is solved do it?

That one just requires importing the product, it should fix commands however that's a beta and i havent tested it due to my lack of access to a webserver and the fact im halfasleep.

I changed:

<span class="forumtitle" style="padding-left:8px">{vb:rawphrase GCBOS}</span>

To:

<span class="forumtitle" style="padding-left:8px">{vb:rawphrase ChatBox}</span>

i suggest you download the very first version of the GCBOS which is GCBOS_0.6.4.zip

Because the latest readme tells you f-all on how to install i had to use the README file of the v0.6.4 and works great:

-Step 1
--Upload the contents of the upload folder to the root directory of your forum.

-Step 2
--Import product-gcbos in your acp (admin control pannel).

-Step 3
--Populate the user group permissions in the acp under Usergroups->Usergroup Manager->{your_group}->GCBOS

-Step 4
--Open the acp once again for GCBOS to display you need to add two template hooks first open headinclude and scroll to the bottom.
--Add "{vb:raw template_hook.headinclude}" (without the quotes to the end of the template save the template. Next open FORUMHOME
--and search for "<!-- /main -->" (without the quotes and add "{vb:raw template_hook.gcbos_display}" above (without the quotes)
--gcbos can be displayed on any page with this hook in ("{vb:raw template_hook.gcbos_display}").

Step 5
--Enjoy

I'd like to use this, but I want to make sure the errors are sorted out before I install.
