Have you imported the product before running this script ? Coz it seems not as the tables are not here.



User that reported such problem hadn't updated files correctly. Check that they are correctly uploaded especially if you are using filezilla.
yes im using filezilla, mind telling me how to upload correctly? thanks

I tried looking but couldn't find anything. Is there a reason that I wouldn't be able to see the .gif images that I have uploaded to the images/misc/mgc_cb_evo_channels directory?

Ok On the right hand side of chat, there is the +/- to expand collapse chat.

If in Admincp, we have chat as Newest First, in chats display ( i think it is )

Then when we collapse chat it totally collapses, as it should.

If we select Oldest First, which is our users preferred choice (Chats display order)

Then when you select minimize ( ie collapse chat ) the chat collapses and then pops back out to about 1/2 its original height.

Even tho no one is chatting.

Here again visual explanation for another problem with your chat (VB ver. 3.8.1, Chat ver. 2.3.0)


1. I just type and read messages, and this was happened!?!?




2. If I reply, this problem persist!




3. Others replys also have some problem (you can see that I must scroll down slidebar to see a full message)




4. This time I just click on any other custom channel, and then return to General channel, and this problem NOW is corrected!




BUT, sometimes this procedure not helps Sometimes, I need to refresh page, sometimes I must close browser,...... I still cannot find reason for this problem..... I just type and read messages.... and sometimes this problem shows.....

I think you have your vBulletin for testing, and maybee you can set input field bottom and older first, and test your chat for a long time.... Maybee, try to test it from time to time couple hours (do not close browser)..... Maybee you'll see this problem?!

I just want to tell you that your chat version 1.5 don't have this problem with this settings!!!!

Members that do not have permission to see the archives, can see the link to the archives. This seems to be a bug.
