As usual, many thanks for a wonderful release!

A tiny request ! Would it be possible to customize in the ACP the size of the font displayed? It's a wee bit too large for me.

Interestingly enough, the font size used to notify the messages is larger than the one used to display "No one is chatting" at the bottom of the chat...

Regards,

Henry

Odd behaviour happening now with standard text input area. If you write something long in it that forced the text box area to expand in width (or quote something with a reply that's pretty long). After you submit the shout the text area stays expanded and only reduces back to normal smaller width after you click in it.

Also, if you enable user new user moderation (set a post count) for all new users to be moderated on posts before moved out Newly Registered group - and you pull new topics to shoutbox. The hidden moderated posts still get pulled in shoutbox

This could be added but there won't be any features until 2.0.0 is released in the CDB, otherwise there will never be a release. Maybe someone wants to write an addon extension for that? :) I do remember though that someone asked the same thing and I posted instructions on how to adjust the CSS. Check a few pages back.

I can reproduce this issue when clicking on the submit button. It works fine when using enter to send the message. I will investigate.

I edited my post and added this extra also.

Also, if you enable new user "moderation" (set a post count) for all new users to be moderated on posts before moved out Newly Registered group - and you pull new topics in shoutbox. The hidden moderated posts still get pulled in shoutbox.

Just had a user join my forum who posted a message stuck in moderation queuing and he he posted another two afterwards still stuck in moderation because I'd now moderated the first one yet. And he posted he could see his messages posted in shoutbox, no idea if other members could have seen it also?

He isn't supposed to see his own unapproved posts. Only users with post approval permission in the respective forum should see those posts: https://github.com/kasimi/mChat/blob/ma ... 1138-L1141 Another issue to investigate.

It works just fine, they lied and was a troll playing games. I tested it myself now creating a new account and making a post that needed moderating and you can't see it in shoutbox, neither can other members also. What they saw was "login" displayed in shoutbox for them that was turned on.

it works perfectly fine, no problem with it.

Yes,I was the one who mentioned it! ;)

I hope that this feature will soon be added, preferably in the UCP. After all, some users may wish for a LARGER font, other may wish for a SMALLER font... There are so many things that can already be customized in the UCP (date format, capitalized first letter of every message, etc.) that I genuinely believe that the font size should also be one of those things).

Henry

If you want to make the font-size smaller and use the proSilver theme. It is controlled in the mchat.css file.

Change:

Code: Select all

.mchat-text {
	clear: both;
	overflow: hidden;
	padding: 2px 5px;
	font-size: 1.2em;
}
Change to this:
.mchat-text {
clear: both;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 2px 5px;
font-size: 1.1em;
}

Idea: add new option similar to Display user logins but to Display only the 1st user login. So after registration and when doing the very 1st login to the board it will receive appear a message welcoming the user.

Best regards

Oops. ;)

There's an add-on extension available now that allows users to adjust the font size. See my signature.
