Hi guys,

I am not away, I was on holiday.

Though I must admit that lately I have lacked a bit of time for the chatbox but I am not gone.

I am going to contact silvermerc for more information.

Regards,
Clément

[DesignMVD]

upgrade vb5 please

[VBDev]

It's not that easy you know.

They changed the whole code when developping vB5 so I'd have to recode everything...

[Barbecue_Eater]

Any progress on the silvermerc case?

[VBDev]

Hello,

I haven't add any answer from him, guess he perhaps is on holidays.

Any hints on how to get this chatbox working properly with https?

Solved by activating this option in MGC Chatbox Evo : Advanced options:

Load DoJo javascript files from your server If you deactivate this option, javascript files will be retrieved from Google servers.

When you use the mobile version of Vbulletin 4.2.2, this thing STILL generates loads of errors AFTER you log in under your username you get:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in ..../mgc_cb_evo/classes/class_display.php on line 0
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in ..../mgc_cb_evo/classes/class_display.php on line 0

Does anyone know what that is and how to fix it?

Thank you very much!!!

Using this chat ( lite version) for a long time now, and it's working perfect.
Only thing I can't get to work is to show who's in the chatbox in a CMPS module on the hompage. Does anyone now how to fix that?
