My Version is 3.0.0!

I made an update to version 3.2.0 and back again.
That was a bug in 3.0.0, there is nothing I could do. This is corrected in 3.2.1 and above.

That's not a template that a phrase. Yep look if you find anything unusual.

I am a Mac user that might be why I don't see that issue.

I'll look at this when starting fixing 3.2.2 bugs.

It works for me. Do you get this issue when chatbox is included on a forum page or in own page ?

It's not a bug, it's meant to work like this (at least since 3.2.1).

It's why you have a close button.
