Re: Using Chat-Box Commands
Wed Aug 03, 2016 7:15 pm
Chatbox: Mini-FAQ
Who are the members with the @ ? These are members who can use the ChatBox moderation commands.
Which are the rights of the Chatbox moderators ? the moderator members can clear the messages, kick and ban members from the CharBox. The Administrators can use these commands mentioned above, but they can also give and withdraw moderation status to a member.
What is the ChatBox's capacity ? The ChatBox can store up to about 195 messages maximum
I can't ban a member ? In most cases, it comes from the fact that the member to ban has moderation rights on the ChatBox. Remove them from this member then try again.
The ChatBox is invisible/ There is a white frame / I don't see the ChatBox ? This comes from a Javascript cache memory problem. Just a Ctrl+F5 and/or a cleanup of the cache memory should solve the problem
[url=LINK TO INSERT]Clear the cache memory and modifications not done[/url]
I don't see some infos in the ChatBox such as logins/logoffs, kicks and bans of members this problem comes from the fact that you are viewing your ChatBox's archives. To have access to these infos, you just have to click on the "Without archives" link which is next to "Refresh", "Auto-refresh", etc.
My parameters (bold, colors, etc.) aren't saved. These parameters are saved using Cookies, so make sure your browser accepts Cookies.
Are the Chatbox ads disabled when I pay to have the ads removed on my forum? Yes, disabling the ads via the points management will also disable the ads in your ChatBox.
Why am I disconnected after a refresh (F5) / Why aren't we automatically connected ?

A forum technician wrote:This process is necessary. Otherwise, a person who comes on the homepage without wanting to use the ChatBox will see his page being regularly refreshed for nothing... This makes the servers, your machine, etc. work for nothing.
Only the chatbox is refreshed, but this is using some database and then, sends requests, so this consumes server loading uselessly for some cases.
So, when you access the homepage (or portal), the chatbox stays (and will stay) logged off.

Thanks for that really detailed post but if you could make a super simplified version of this FAQ, I doubt people are going to read this entire thing. Personally for me, what I have learnt through using the chatbox is just one major thing. To retrieve or see past messages you need to click on "ARCHIVES" right next to the log out button. Because I know I was lost in that sense, so if you could re-post a simplified version of this, just 1 paragraph of the main things on how to navigate through the chatbox, it would be super cool!
Cheers bud.
Cheers bud.
