I've installed and configured the ChatBox and almost everything is working fine.... :up:

The one thing I need to change is the test color (white) on the drop-down menu
(Top left corner of the winder, to the right of the "ChatBox" and "Chatbox Full" text.

What I see is a row of white boxes...
- hovering the mouse pointer on menu items gives me a pale orange highlight, and small white text. Its almost impossible to ready it - even with my glases on!

Can you tell me the line numbers to edit?
- and / or show me the line + code I need to edit

This is a very cool Add-on, my users are going to love it when we release the upgraded site! (phpBB3 to vB4)

Thanks

Ben

I have cleared the dupilcate chatbox by disabling the chatbox and then deleting index and forumhome out of the settings and then renabling them one at a time! I hope this helps if anyone else has the same problem. The only problem I have is the image for the archive button not displaying!

It would be awesome if there was a "notification sound" when someone posts. Enabled by default and can be disabled with one click.

Try right clicking the image and see its actual URL. Compare the image you have in the folder on your server. 99% likely its a PNG/GIF issue. I had the same too. I edited the XML and changed the GIF to PNG and it worked.
