I emailed you the package. I don't know why MicroCart is not sending the link to you, but owell.

Slight error. For some reason, some vBadvanced features do not work when your mod is enabled. In the Online users area of vBa, it shows how many members are online, but not the names of the members.

And also the "edit post" and "reply" buttons are the default buttons on custom styles when they are not supposed to be.

When I disable your mod, everything works again.

Thoughts?

Using the pro version, we are experiencing this, too. The names do not show just "Array".

Also, smilies are not showing in our chat window.

Alright so everything installed ok, but when I attempt to connect I get this:



Also, the PJIRC options I show arn't close to the thumbnail you show:



Is the thumbnail you show for the paid version then?

Or could all these problems be associated with my board running vB 4.1.2?

It's the paid screenshot, my mistake.

The reason it is not working is because you did not set up your settings. If everything is blank, what server will it connect to?

For the host put irc.mibbit.com
For Channel use #YourDomainName
Leave Nickname and Alt Nickname blank if you want to use your members nicknames.

I'm still working on the new update for the premium version, but once all is settled, most premium features will be on the free version.

I'm working on two products here.


As for the VBA, I use the VBulletin CMS, so I can not help out there. If someone will pm me their server information I can isolate the issue and fix it.

Oh trust me, I've had all the information filled out. I deleted it all for that screenshot as I didn't want to advertise my site and/or IRC server/channel.

I'm not a developer that pitches a fit about PM support. Feel free to PM me your server information so that I can get a better look.

Getting the same error as Shootsteel up there. Did you find a resolution to this yet?
