For some reason, the chat page is a blank screen on some systems and it works on others. Any ideas what might be wrong with the systems that get the white screen?
Thanks

The install doesn't add templates to skins that are not child skins from the default skin. I hope I'm making sense.LOL No members have liked this post.

Time
Since I didn't see any code to insert the time when each message was sent, I went ahead and coded it myself.
After:
I inserted:
I can now use $time in the chat_row and chat_row_special_recieved (sic) templates. $time takes into consideration the current chatter's timezoneoffset setting and the server's timezone setting so that each person should see their own local time when the messages were posted. Hope that helps! No members have liked this post.

Alternating Row Background Colors
I now have alternating backgrounds for each message.
Somewhere near the top of chat_iframe, I inserted:
Then, in chat_row, I replaced:
with
I also inserted into the end of chat_row:
Of course you can change #F5F5F5 to whatever color you wish. Hope that helps! No members have liked this post.

I added vbchat to my board, it worked except the smileys, they didn't show in the chat window. I have some other hacks installed but anyway, Resis Is Futile, one of my support members and good scripter had a look at it and tweaked it to make it work. Since it can help some others, I take the freedom to copy his changes here.
" To make the smilies work I just changed to things. I removed the code in the smilie-bar generating section to make them appear in random order, and added a smilie-parser for the display of messages. I changed these two parts:
to
and
to
Once again thanks Resis and I hope this can help others that have the same problem No members have liked this post.

concealing vBChat
I want to use the chat only for my moderators. So I don't want vBChat to display in the navbar or at the bottom where it displays: Users Currently Inside vBChat
How can I hide these from other usergroups? No members have liked this post.
