...or perhaps you could move to a host with a better server solution?

Hey there.

I have a problem with my chatbox all of a sudden. Everyone else can submit shouts, but I cannot (the admin). When I click the "Message..." or "Search..." boxes, the text does not autoclear and I cannot enter in any text.

Any idea what is going wrong?

Thanks!

Videx · #**2534** 09-01-2012, 11:40 AM

Hm. I saw a member enter "Message..." the other day and I thought it was a joke. May have been the same problem. But they didn't say anything and I haven't seen it myself. Have you tried it in different browsers?

GameOverViper · #**2535** 09-01-2012, 12:05 PM

Are there images for this chatbox? I have the "remove text formatting" and "smilies" buttons missing an image.

Same thing in every browser.

I am the only usergroup with this problem...(Admin usergroup).

So you have no trouble posting as your regular member alter-ego?

Howabout a link and a test admin login then? I mean, I've never seen this issue before with this mod so there's only so much we can do from arm's reach.

Prince Edward has posted a fix for this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...72#post1977372

The issue does stand on the Archive page still. I am looking into fixing that as we speak. If I find the solution I will post it up.

Ross L · #**2540** 09-06-2012, 05:41 PM

To fix the archive box, find on line 569 of the vsa_chatbox template:-

Code:

<div class="blockhead" style="height:16px;padding-{vb:stylevar right}:{vb:math {vb:stylevar padding}/2-1};font-weight:bold">

Replace with:

Code:

<div class="blockhead" style="padding-{vb:stylevar right}:{vb:math {vb:stylevar padding}/2-1};font-weight:bold;height: 15px;">

There's a big flaw and that is that users can edit the javascript imposed character limit (by altering the source code of the page through your browser). I've just brought a site to its knees by entering 100 lines of 50000 words in chat. The only thing preventing more damage is the webserver timing out.
