However if the parameter contains spaces you must enclose it in quotes, such as:
/command "parameter 1" 'parameter2' param3.
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.

ok so special characters are working in whatever is typed. but people who have special characters ihn their names it doesnt show.

example:
#16:59 B�cky> says Bécky

[TalkDisneyChann]

When someone posts a message, it shows up as..

(username) message (username)

Why is that?

Just installed this, and I'm getting:

$gperm = convert_bits_to_array($vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['gcbos_permissions'], $vbulletin->bf_ugp_gcbos_permissions); //User has permission to view the shoutbox if ($gperm['can_view']) { global $style; global $vbulletin; //THe embed code is on the page and this doesnt contain the "switchmode" editor from vbcms (may require editing for custom skins) if (preg_match('//', $output) && !preg_match('/vB_Editor_002_cmd_switchmode/', $output)) { //Header information to embed $vbcsspath = 'css.php?styleid=' . $vbulletin->userinfo['styleid'] . '&langid=' . LANGUAGEID . '&d=' . $style['dateline'] . '&sheet='; $gcbos_head = '' . PHP_EOL . ''; //Do we need to include the forumbits.css file? Append it to the header if (!preg_match('/forumbits.css/', $output)) $gcbos_head = '' . PHP_EOL . $gcbos_head; //Replace the ending head tag with the new information (this allows us to easily deploy on custom pages). $output = str_replace('', $gcbos_head, $output); //Replace the embed code with the shoutbox (works globally anywhere on the page) $output = str_replace('', vB_Template::create('GCBOS')->render(), $output); } }

at the top of the forums.

This plugin completely shut down the host server >_>, with tons of SQL errors.

What do you mean by "-Set usergroup permissions" and should I add only {SHOUTBOX} or <!-- {SHOUTBOX} --> ? But the <!-- --> is so the browser won't read the code right? I can't understabnd what you mean by -set usergroup permissions, what should I change? and when I add the {SHOUTBOX} it only appears like that, nothing more.

Any chance to see some font/color changing functions, smileys and all that in this?

[bluebare]

Is there anyway to change the title on this box from 'GSCOS' to 'SHOUTBOX' so that most of my users know what it is?
