@All
for adding new Template (new or old Style) user get wrong catbg class title. Now here a fix until next Version of this mod is released.

in Sources/ChatIRC.pl and Sources/ChatIRCOnline.pl

search
Code:

my $title_class = $usehead eq 'default' ? 'tabtitle' : 'catbg'; 

replace
Code:

my $title_class = $usehead =~ /21$/ ? 'catbg' : 'tabtitle'; 

If you add new Template with old YaBB 2.1 Style, add 21 after your template folder- / filename.

Example:
cgi-bin/yabb2/Templates/templatename21/templatename21.html

public_html/yabbfiles/Templates/Forum/templatename21/
public_html/yabbfiles/Templates/Forum/templatename21.css

That not YaBB Problem, only external Server.   Use other Server from the list or other if you know one, I will be added if no listed.  

add ChatIRC_V1_2_yabb231.mod for YaBB 2.3.1 Forum Software
and remove compatible mod and change in modfile a Step for AdvancedTabs.pl, so all compatible now with other mods.

sorry, No Problems on my 3 different Server with 2.3 and 2.3.1

Nothing is new.   And nothing changed.

Thanks for this Mod. Installed in a fresh 2.3.1 without Problems!

I have uploaded the chat to 2 forums one is working OK mine is not?

All I get is a screen the same as the forum with the following text in a box


An Error Has Occurred!

Error:
