I'm having trouble getting the code in this thread to work: support.proboards.com/thread/511330/close-editor-warning

I went looking for something like that some time ago when I accidentally closed the tab I was typing in but ever since then I have not been able to get it to work. I even tried it with my forum theme set to the default proboards theme and it didn't work. This was with Chrome 47. I also just tried IE 11 but it didn't work with that browser either as well as Firefox 42 which I tried a few days ago.

   Hi planettv

   That code was created by Brian he may be able to help you get it working on your forum as im unable to replicate it either.

   Brian should be back with us in a couple of days

If you use Chrome there's a nifty extension that works well.
chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/jscript-tricks/odialddippdmebbfbflcneemfdglimod?hl=en

Once you add the extension you'll see a white scroll in the upper right. Click that and add this as the script source.
Placing the asterisk in the applied to box will require a response for any page you close on your forum. There's a logout confirmation plugin but this one allows you to require a logout confirmation on 1 or as many sites as you wish.

function PopIt() { return "Are you sure you want to leave?"; }
function UnPopIt() { /* nothing to return */ }

$(document).ready(function() {
window.onbeforeunload = PopIt;
$("a").click(function(){ window.onbeforeunload = UnPopIt; });
});

Thanks for the suggestion. I will keep it in mind as a last resort.
