Hey all,

 

I've found some time to have a look at forum improvements. I don't have so much experience with Vbulletin, so I'll be playing around a bit.

 

First addition is a simple chatbox for any question questions you might have. Or just for chit-chat!

Yeah, I need to get the "pro version" so it can be intergrated in the post rather than sit there as a postbit.

Still trying to add some features like the thanks button, sidebar (not sure if useful), improved SEO.

 

I want to add more styling options for forum posts (ie. tables). Anything else you guys want?

Also trying out a new mobile style for those who trying to read the forums on the move

 

I think it's best not to use the mobile style because it's harder to navigate, looks like crap, chatbox doesn't work and only shows loading and I don't think anyone has problems accessing the normal forums on mobile because it works well on a range of new and old devices

Hm, okay. The sidebar is a bit obnoxious on the mobile (with regular style) though. But then again, it's also not awesome on desktop :P

Yes it is. Now a dark theme will be great.

Any reason why it got removed because it was mainly just for the two reasons below and despite some crap posts it seemed to work really well

Should've posted here earlier!

 

We're having some issues with spammers and for some reason they were all attracted to the Chatbox archive. So now we're trying to find out if the Chatbox is the cause or the Chatbox is a metric.

 

I don't think the chatbox is attracting them specifically, so it's pretty likely it'll come back soon.

I've been wondering if my mobile device had a problem, but no chatbox on the rig as well. It has been very helpful in several ways for me. I've never noticed any spam, what do you mean?

 

GIVE US CHATBOX BACK......please

I never noticed spam to the point it was a problem but I did see a spam post or two by a bot which is something of great concern because if link to something malicious is posted the only choice would be to remove the chatbox unless individual posts can removed

 

Plus the chatbox gave me a good reason to check the forums like never before

Didn't go away. It happens whenever I hit Enter, even if it's the first message I've sent. Clicking "OK" seems to work fine but hitting Enter always throws the error.
