I am getting an error whenever I try and post in the chat. I installed per the "Read Me" instructions and whenever I type in the chatbox it gives me a "security token error message.".

The only deviation from the install instructions that I made was the images folder. It says to load that into each of my "forum style folders" but I didnt have any forum style folders. So I loaded the Images folder contents to the forum root folder.


Any help would be appreciated. I am running VBulletin 4.2 and please be kind. Im a total noob at this stuff and am literally just figuring things out as I go. The simplest terms and instructions work best for me

Your default images folder is /images , not root.. The error you are getting is either a file or mod_security error.

Ok, I understand what you are saying to an extent. So should I put the contents of the images folder into my "Images" directory?

Read the readme, you obviously just deleted files without following the uninstall info.

1. ALWAYS backup your site before you make any changes. <----------- I can't stress this enough for n00bs or people not familiar with it. AND for experts.

2. Reinstall the product. That should fix the issue.

I bet you didn't copy the files over correctly to the right dir.

Hi,

I just installed this in Version 4.2, and was wondering the following:

1. Added a link to the chat on my Navbar. Can i have that link open/popup in a new window without the sites header/footer info?

2. Has anyone made any additional channel images for Moderators only, etc.?
