I checked around and cannot figure out how to make the chatbox so that registered members can see the pics that are in the shouts. Right now all they see is a X box, the mods and admin can see the pic though.
everytime I activate this my site starts throwing database errors like crazy. not solid db errors like it shuts off but throughout the day ill get about 100+
I have also tried limiting to a usergroup of about 15 people and it still does it.
anyone else having this problem or experienced and could offer tips?

How many shouts are you displaying in the chatbox ?
What is your refresh rate ?
Are you using a shared/free host ?

Do not use the fix that is intended for previous versions !!! This will mess up all your forums !!
You got the security token with all files updated and all templates reverted ?
The rules in the chatbox (little "R" button).
i tried that fix ..did nothing to my forums so i took out the fix and still nothing template was a fresh template with nothing done to it...therefore nothing to revert
am running vb 3.7.2
with vbadvanced and some other mods that (dont have template edits)
I think he meant to tell you to click the button with the little question mark (?) rather then the one Rules button (R). That's where the explanations are.
