Hey everyone!


I am a total noob when it comes to site admin. I have had my site for a couple of years now, but it was on Simple Machines. I had Brandon switch it over to Vbulletin for me, and he did an awesome job. I am now looking at a new host, the one that I have is not doing well with the switch. It takes forever to load, and it's a very small site!

But, anyway, I digress. I am starting to have lots of questions. I am thankful that this site is patient with newbies, because I really don't know much about this. I want to learn though.

My first two questions.

1. I have the chatbox at the top of my forum. I can see it. Most of my members can see it. But, I have a few who are complaining that it isn't there for them, and that they cannot see it. I have looked all through the chatbox options, and user options, and can't find any reason why they aren't seeing it? Does anybody know what would be causing this?

2. I cannot find the log out button on the site, on the new skin. Can someone tell me where I would go to readd it?

(sorry, I'll try not to be so wordy next time) Thank you in advance for your answers.

Special Little Smiles

Re: Hey everyone!


You never have to applogize for being "to wordy"

1. Check the usergroup settings, are these few users in the same usergroup ?

2. uuh, I don't see one on that style.. it has to be there somewhere.

Hey Brandon

They are all in the same usergroup, and some can see it, and those can't. I am confused!

Re: Hey everyone!


Yeah, this is a weird issue.


If people see "something" see if they can take a snapshot of it and post a picture of it on the forums, and also say what browser they're using, that might have something to do with it also.

Re: Hey everyone!


Okay, here's the deal. One of my members told me that she had the chat. She went in, and made a couple of changes in her profile, and it disapppeared. So, I went into mine. I made one change, nothing that should have affected it. I clicked save, came back into the forum, and the chat is no longer showing for me. Just a normal forum, no chat. I went back and reversed the change, cleared cookies, everything, and it didn't bring it back. The chat box is still gone.

I am so frustrated right now.

Re: Hey everyone!


Can anyone help me with this? My members are having a cow! This is their usual chat night in the chat box.
