That's because you have modified it.

I'm only able to solve problems with original XML.

Cheers Valter, I've only changed the name of the chatbox to Banterbox. But it's ok I've got it to install.

Thanks for the reply,
Dave

It's not recommended to change any phrases in the XML.
Always do it in Phrase Manager.

You can configure it as a shoutbox instead of a chatbox - i.e., log people out fairly quickly and change the title so they don't expect to hang out there.

Your only other choice is to use a hosted chatbox like http://www.addonchat.com/.

I have had this installed for sometime now and the members love it but I recently ran into a small problem. I was requested ad space on my forum in which I sold the space below the navbar which is prime space due to the chatbox being their but when I added the banner through the admin control panel it conflicts with the chatbox. Anytime someone clicks on the chatbox to enter a comment, it redirects them to the location of the banner.
