Question-answer

How can I install a tag board?
After you have activated the module you must get the code (press "Get the code" ). Then insert it into any module – forum, main page and so on. Insert the code into page code (Design customization).

***
How can I change color in text lines?
You can customize chat appearance here:
Control panel » Main » Tag Board » Module design customization. You can also customize appearance by means of CSS template.

***
How can I remove tag board messages?
Messages can be removed in Messages Management window (examine the buttons under the tag board).

***
How can I make a refreshing interval less than 30 sec?
Find the following line in HTML code:
<option value="0">--<option value="30">30sec<option value="60">1min<option value="120">2min<option value="300">5min<option value="900">15min</select>
Refreshing interval in seconds is in bold type.

***
How can I make the tag board visible not for all?
Use conditional operators not in tag board template, but in the template where you inserted its calling code:
<?if($GROUP_ID$=2 || $GROUP_ID$=3 || $GROUP_ID$=4)?>calling code<?endif?>
Read help on conditional operators.

***
Can I create different chat rooms for different users?
No. Our tag board is a mini chat, it is not fully-featured.

***
Is there a message archive like in cbox?
No. We came to the conclusion that this feature is hardly ever used.

***
How can I set default size of the displayed text?
css .commCommentTd {font-size:14pt;} or in the template of messages appearance:<font size=14pt>$MESSAGE$</font>

***
How can I remove the field for a name input in order not to enter own name each time
Find the following in the original code and edit it as shown in red:
<input type="text" maxlength="60" name="uname" size="8" class="mchat" id="mchatNmF" value="" onfocus="ffoc(this,0)" onblur="fblur(this,0)" title="$STR_NAME$" style="display:none;width:47%;margin:0;padding:1px;border:1px solid black;height:20px">
When adding a message, a nickname of the user who adds it will be inserted automatically.

***
I want a tag board to open in a new small window. How can I do this?
Insert the following into the page code:

Quote
<a href="javascript://" onclick="window.open('http://Site_address/mchat','mchat','scrollbars=1,top=30,left=100,resizable=1,width=300,height=300');return false;"><b>Tag Board</b></a>

***
Is it possible to display number of people online in tag board?
No. There is only the statistics who’s on site.

***
Can I have two deferent tag boards on one site but not on one page?
No. But you can register a shoutbox on other sites and insert the code to your page. It won't look like uCoz shotbox, but you'll get what you needed.

***
How can I change font color in the tag board?
See original code, search classes names and then adjust them in the style sheet.

***
How can I make the following: when I click on a nickname it appears in the message line?
JavaScript + message appearance template for the tag board.

***
Sometimes messages are displayed as signs. Change of encoding doesn’t help. What should I do?
If your user uses a browser that cannot transfer in UTF, then you get what you get. Change the browser.

***
Do the Tag Box can have sound so that a user can be alerted by incoming new messages?
No.

Go to Control Panel - Inactive modules - Install Tag board - Press "Get the code" - go to Customize Design section and insert this code where you want to see the chat.

uCoz provides Tag Board which is similar to chat box. You can install this module via CP.
If you have own HTML code & you wish to add it in the new page, create new page via
Page Editor, than place your chat box's code there & add page to site menu. (in case it didn't)
