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.

I am not getting GCBOS to show up after the 4.0.1 upgrade I have triple checked the template and it is correct. As an alternate method did I understand correctly you used the Advertising to insert the chat box?

I looked though this thread a bit and didn't see any examples. How did you accomplish this? Please

[dondavis]
