Solved [Help]Chatbox restrictions

Post by cHaSwWind04 September 10th 2012, 3:30 pm

I have installed the FM pop-up chatbox version which uses widget.
Now as my forum grows, so does multi-accounts.
My forum featured groups which accepts members automatically when they reach certain post numbers.
Now for my help. I want to RESTRICT a group from seeing that widget so that they are FORCED to post so that I could track their IPs.
But if you got some other ideas on how to restrict a user/group in the chatbox, I am gladly to try it.

All you can really do is just set the widget permissions for members,
there is no way to set group permissions for the widget.

What i would do is create a board for all new members to introduce their self.
And this will be the only forum/board new members will access to until the post and introduce their self's there. Once they do you can have them be placed in (members group) or other name that you want to call it automatically . This group will then have accesses/permissions to the rest of the forum/sections you wish.

So now, new members must post ,say hi,introduce their self's first to gain access to the rest of the forum.. Then in return you will be able to see their ip addresses since they had to post first.

That's about the only way i can think of doing if you want to be sure everyone post first to see ip?

The problem is that, they tend to stay in the chatbox rather than posting. That's why I want it them to post first before they stay there.
A forum is a forum. The chatbox is just an entertainment feature you know.

Anyhow, does anyone here have an html code for the FMchatbox so that I could put restrictions there.
