Hide or Remove Ajax Chatbox

[Anggun]

How do I remove the Ajax Chatbox or at least hide it? I don't see the need for it when there is also an Ajax Shoutbox.

Yep, easy little edit.

That was put on there to originally use as a separate chatroom, but have seen some folk, actually use that version in place of the shoutbox instead.

To remove the ajax chat, depending on what template you are using, open overall_header.html and do this:

Prosilver (or prosilver based style):

Code: Select all

<li class="icon-members"><a href="{U_CHAT}" title="{L_CHAT_EXPLAIN}">{L_CHAT}</a></li>

Subsilver (or subsilver based style):

Code: Select all

<a href="{U_CHAT}"><img src="{T_THEME_PATH}/images/icon_mini_members.gif" width="12" height="13" alt="Forum Chat" /> {L_CHAT}</a>&nbsp; &nbsp;

Remove the above line

from what i've read above there must be a chatbox and shoutbox on the forum.i can get chat by clicking the chat on the header but shoutbox doesnt appear when i click it at the bottom.I am using v1.0.4 on prosilver.It just shows a solid blue bar with shoutbox on it but does nothing.
