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.

4), Chat box no longer works!

Why is the HTTP at front needed? I wish for people to use both http and https.. hence I removed the http. Any help, please! Third time I'm asking, and no one replies to my question.

Still waiting for a reply regarding this.. Would be very helpful.

So... how much stress can this potentially put on the forums? Is this really resource heavy if a lot of folks are in chat?

[valendono]

command only /prune working well.. anything else ?

Psst it is privately only you and the target see the notice.

When I changed ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 my forum got completely messed up. Can someone help me via PM?

I am now frustrated with this mod, as I just spent 3 hours setting up my new vb 4 forum and I can't do nothing in my admin panel or anything.

God damn it.

I will pay someone a few bucks to successfully fix and install this for me. =/

Thanks,

When in the "who's online" area of the forum, it shows the users at "GCBOS". Is there a way to change this to say they are on the Chat Box instead of GCBOS?

I've noticed things getting a little slower at heavy load, but not bad at all...it seems to be fairly lightweight. There's no particular DB overhead either, as the shouts are not archived.

This mod needs an idle function or the shoutbox overloads with request the server on busy sites
