Bug Shoutbox PM's not working in DragonByte Tech: vBShout (Pro) 5.4.4

[Sicilian]

Last week we upgraded to vb4.1.4 and latest DragonByte Tech: vBShout (Pro) 5.4.4. I've just found that PM's are no longer working in the shoutbox. I've enbabled them in instance settings and applied the relevant permissions. If you click on a username in the shoubox you get taken to the users profile insteat of getting a pm option.

1. Please check to see that the global PM switch is turned on in the settings above the permissions screen.


2. Please download the latest version,5.4.4 PL2 I have not seen any other reports of this, I know it does work on here and my test and live site correctly.

(Pro) Enable PMs is set to yes. Permission all set corectly, using 5.4.4 PL2. Just re-uploaded and re-imported xml.

The lack of dropdown does not mean PMs are not functioning.

The dropdown has its own setting and permission (referred to as Context Menu) because of the amount of HTML it generates (and associated bandwidth / server load)

Thanks Fillip H., enabled context menu and working now, but the menu disappears a bit too fast and its hard to click the pm link.

It will disappear when the shoutbox refreshes, which should be every 3-5 seconds
