Yes, one of the least fun parts about installing mods is slogging through all the pages. But it's necessary. For one, many mods simply don't work, and you won't know unless you read all the pages (posts telling you it doesn't work quickly get buried by noobs asking why it doesn't work!).

Anyway, check your settings in AdminCP. You didn't mention that above, so it could be something simple like you have it turned off.

Oh how I wish it was a simple thing like I had it turned off! Tis not. I'm not retarded, just new to the whole thing. I'll figure it out :D

Great Mod....installed it last night and loving it so far :)
I have some suggestions...to add to the chatbox :D

1. Easy access to EDIT, DELETE and other moderating commands.
2. A PM option will be great
3. Notification on new messages and new threads
4. Also a minimum number of characters needed to send a message

I dont know if these have been mentioned before. There is a whopping 55 pages O.o to go through :D
Hope to see the above implemented

One problem, can anyone help? Everything works fine except when a member first logs in it will keep saying loading and never actually load the chat. If you click to another area in the forum all is well but if you try to enter something into chat while it is stuck loading, it says this..

shows up as

19 colors listed, 20 show up in the box and at completely random order. The default color isn't even specified in the list.

This really doesn't make any sense. Where am I going wrong?

Also, is there a way to have the smilies listed in order and not randomly when clicking the smily button?

OK folks, this is not for the faint of heart and I know there must be a much easier way to do this, but until something better comes along....

BEFORE YOU BEGIN.

You'll need a wav file and access to your database.

STEP 1: UPDATE USER TABLE
Add new column of type "INT"
Name Column = "countvsachats"

STEP 2: MODIFY PLUGINS - (VSa - ChatBox - MN)

Find the following function "ccbmessages"
Add above: $vbulletin->db->show_errors();

Block Disabled: (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

STEP 3: Scroll down and find .... if ($vsacb_box_totalmessages>0)
Add above (notice here I am loading a chat.wav from images\misc - you'll need to upload a wav and change accordingly):

Block Disabled: (Update License Status)

I have yet to try with FireFox but the idea is simple. Have a coulm in the user tabe keep track of the current amount of chats. When the chatbox refreshes, run a quick query to count the number of chats. If the chats in the query are larger than the entry in the user table - update the user table to match and fire off a sound.

I hope that there will be a good response to this and Valter might provide a similar solution?

Cheers for this! we were missing the BOING! and now it is back :) the whole process is not as daunting as it may seem at first :)

Believe it or not, a very important part of installing any mod is taking the time to read through the entire thread for information. Yes, I know this becomes painful for popular mods, especially when people keep padding the thread with the same questions.

I'm sure this has been asked a lot and most of us would enjoy, can you add more command functions?
Examples:
/notice
/prune
/ban
and more things along those lines. It would be really nice for this chatbox and would make it perfect.

AND WHAT IS THIS CODE BELOW?

Block Disabled: (Update License Status)

STEP 3: SCROLL DOWN AND FIND .... if ($vsacb_box_totalmessages>0)

ADD ABOVE: >>> (notice here I am loading a chat.wav from images\misc - you'll need to upload a wav and change accordingly):

Just shooting some noobs on xbox and then i will make an addon to that post buddy ;)

Ok the easiest way to do this is to go to the plugin we need to edit in this case
“VSa - ChatBox – MN”
How? Admincp>>> Plugin and products>>>>Plugin manager Scroll down and find the VSa-Chatbox-MN plugin and next to that click edit.

Select everything in the php code box and copy it to a text editor of your choice ( I use notepad++ )

Once there you can use the find function and look for

Block Disabled: (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

And add on the line above it (copy and paste)

Block Disabled: (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Then use the search function again to find

Block Disabled: (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

And on the line above that add (copy and paste) the next bit of code

Block Disabled: (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Once you have done that you can copy the whole lot back from your text editor into the plugin phpcode box replacing the original code and click save.

You then need to find a good wav file. you can TRY HERE and upload it to your images/misc folder ( make sure and name it "chat.wav )

Hope this helps
