sounds to me like you didn't click on the "overwrite" option before uploading.

Hi,

I did the overwriting option. But it seems that when i switch back to Dutch (from English) it's all in french again.

Do i need to overwrite the dutch lang version?


Edit:

Also, if its activated, where can i find the link chatbox?

Dear users,

As you might have seen, I have recently been rather inactive on the internet. I have had some tough personnal issues that lead me to reconsider my "after works" activities, and as you might know, vBulletin is one of them.

This reflexion led me the decision of stopping the development of vBulletin products. I know this might sound rough but somehow life is made of choices and I made mine: love is more important than vBulletin.

Chatbox will keep intact all copyright and notices and licences intacked and be upgraded to support vB4.0 by my current partner AWJunkies.
Please be patient in this transitional time.

You can contact AWJunkies for any further information on forumcoding.

Wishing you the best in your vBulletin projects.

doesn't make sense at all to me. I had no issues doing what you've stated by uploading the english file from how it was described through the screenshots..are you sure you uploaded it in the right place? (in the language portion of the admin cp, not the plug-in section)?

No the language file. I already could enable it etc, but it was partially in french. The column on the left side, for example.

I mean where can i actually find the chatbox, i want to chat and test it out. I can't find the link in my forum for it. How do i start chatting?
