Dion Dev Shoutbox v2.1 (AJAX)

[DionDev]

DEMO URL:

http://www.diondev.com/vb

-------------------------

NEW FEATURES:

- simplicity was kept in mind
- new archive layout that uses a table with name, message, time, and ip & delete for admins/supermods
- shoutbox files are all in one folder
- new option to change the width and height of the shoutbox iframe
- new option to allow supermods to delete shouts
- new collapsable shoutbox template that flows better with forums
- ip addresses are now stored along with shouts
- B, I, U, and color buttons for shouts that are remembered for each shout until the member navigates away from the page
- javascript bug fixes that caused messages with "&" and other symbols to cut off
- name colors based on group open and close tags
- new option to automatically parse urls
- removed guest shouting all together (after being disgusted with some of the things written in the shoutbox on my site, i will never re-add this feature so don't bother asking)
- new hide shoutbox from guests option
- uses a little cache system so it only redraws shouts if a new shout has been made (saves bandwidth)
- and some more features I may have forgot to mention

You can see the old feature lists in the old shoutbox vb.org threads:
Dion Dev Shoutbox v2.0
vBulletin 3.x Shoutbox 1.0

-------------------------

UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS:

1. uninstall the old shoutbox product from your admin cp

if you want the shoutbox to show at the top of your forum index, go to the FORUMHOME template and find:

"<!-- / guest welcome message -->

</if>"

and copy and paste the contents of "template.txt" after that.

6. go to vbulletin options -> select "dion dev shoutbox v2.1 options" at the very bottom of the list

-------------------------

Where's the .xml file?

[DionDev]

My bad. Please re-download the zip file, I've added the XML file to it.

nice! Thanks for the redirect!

[saviola8x]

Not bad.

[Reycer]

what about the smilie box we talked about....lol I like the new update. ESPECIALLY the Ip address thing.

Thanks for this.

~Michael

[Reycer]

I can't get it to work right. Take a look

[saadessa]

thank you
realy it is greate job

[Reycer]

Nevermind, I got it working. Thanks for this one. Can't wait to see a smilie link somewhere.

[Reycer]

ok Dion, it works and then stops working. Here's whats going on. It will sometimes post the messages I just typed and other times I am having to "Refresh" my browser to get it to work.

[Reycer]

ok, when trying to post a smilie code, I am getting a broken image picture. When I right click and go down to properties, I see that this is where the box is trying to pull the smilie from. http://lacledeforum.com/forums/http://lacledeforum.com/forums/images/smilies/69.gif

For some reason, it's repeating my home address.

Also does this in the image tag.


OK, scratch that, I fixed it, in shoutshow.php I had to remove ../ from line 32. Otherwise it did what I stated above.

[vuive360]

Hi Dion Dev,i have a question .
I dont want smod can delete shout, but i want the other group can do like that, so how do i fix this thing ! thanks a lot

[Reycer]

hmmm. I also need to adjust the font size. How do I do that?

[DionDev]

The smilies are automatically parsed. So if someone types :) it gets turned into the smilie.

To change the font size you'll have to edit the "shoutshow.php" file, look for <font>'s that use the "smallfont" class and remove them.

Now currently only admins and SMOD's can delete shouts. You can disable SMOD's ability in the admin CP.

[Ross L]

In comparison to the Inferno Pro Shoutbox, how much does this affect the server load? Is it any better?

Also is it possible to make normal mods able to delete shouts?

Cheers.

[nNJ]

Is this safe to instrall if you have another chatbox installed?

I want to throw a conditional around your chatbox to only show up in certain forums that only mods, s.mod, and admins have access to, but I need to know if its safe to install this if inferno shout lite is installed

I would assume it is safe as the coding uses different phrases/variables blah blah lol however you know what they say about assuming but nice idea, I did that once for admins on a forum so they could chat rather quickly.

S-MAN

[nNJ]

exactly my intended use.

I was worried that they would use the same phrases, or they would cause a conflict in the database.

I'll backup and test, and let you all know.

I don't know. I have never used Inferno Shoutbox or any other for that matter. All this shoutbox does is perform a mysql query every 2 seconds (or however long you set it to in the javascript file). Honestly, this is nothing. People use way more queries than this just browsing forums. If you're worried about server load then please edit "2000" to a higher number, such as "5000" for 5 seconds.

Also, the shouts are only redrawn if a new shout is made while you're viewing the shoutbox, therefore this version significantly reduces bandwith consumption.

Yes it should be fine. All the plugin variables are prefixed with "ddsb_".

Update on version 2.2:

The changes for 2.2 will be minor. They will involve the BBcode buttons and perhaps a smilies dropdown list of some kind. I also might add the ability to give power to people in groups that you specify.

[silvermerc]

Looks rather nice!

does new version fix this if it was a bug?

[DionDev]

Upgrade to the new version.

[Sdahe]

Dion, I would like to add this shoutbox in one of my vBadvanced CMPS modules so I can have it in my portal page... can you tell me the steps to do this?

Thanks

Install it as normal, and insert the template.txt code into your VBA CMPS portal template.

[PaleRiders]

I like it.

[Cyberkef]

Doesn't really work here...

You use mysql_fetch_assoc($sql) instead of $db->fetch_array($sql) methods, so on some configurations all your queryreaders are fubar. Looks like using MySQLi does the trick.

I found:
line 21 in shoutshow.php
line 8, 9, 18 in shoutinsert.php
line 34, 75 in shoutarchive.php
....

I hope changing all the methods will make it work.

Yes I will be changing that for the next version. I've also used mysql_result in a couple of places, that will be changed as well.

How do i change the color of the default shouts? (shouts that dont have a color selected), it defaults to black and its hard to read black and a dark background.

[Hall of Famer]

I want the shoutbox to be used by staff members only. Can I make it impossible for ordinary registered users to post in the shoutbox?

[kyrenator]

the 2.1 edition is awesome!!!
congratulations!

[kyrenator]

Buy there is a prob! It does not show the emoticons! :(
I have the Parse smilies to yes but it shows a space instead of the smiley!

P.S. When i write in greek it shows something like this "%u03B5λληνικα"!!

Any suggestions?

[m0rgulvale]

Helloo..
Many problems :(

No css style at my box.
No greek inside.(multilang)I use utf8 for my site
No emoticons

Nice options and layout.

[|Jordan|]

In the next version can you make the background of each shout alternate between alt1 and alt2 css?

It does.

[rmxs]

Yes because i remove it...
I fount that after you edit 2-3 files and remove some ../ from pathes and correct the path to css then works..
Byt normally must work without user edits :)

have you fixed the errors with emoticons and greek?

hi dion,

this is what was suggested on the site u mentioned:

max_connections=500
wait_timeout = 30
query_cache_limit=2M
query_cache_size=24M


my my.cnf file listed below does not have any of the above variables set




[mysqld]
set-variable=max_allowed_packet=36M
skip-bdb
skip-innodb
skip-networking
bind-address=127.0.0.1


please let me know what u think is the best move

thanks
-ave

[chrisbeau]

i replaced:
<if condition="!$show[guest] || $vboptions[ddsb_guest_show]">

with

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(5,6))">

So I could keep it just for S Mods and admin and it works BUT is there anyway of stopping anyone else from actually viewing it, as its still viewable by all via the direct link mysitename.com\shoutbox.php

I tried setting file permissions to 740 (public cant read, write or excute) but that throws up an error message.

Use PHP's die function, and create a conditional statement at the top of shoutbox.php.

I'm not really sure. I am not exactly a server expert. I think it would be best to contact your hosting provider, or post a message on WHT.

I think I am running your VB Shout 2.0, I am going to upgrade to your 2.1.

Where do you get more smiley options for the shoutbox?

My current version no one can use quotes, " " Can this be fixed?

also, when posting some links in, they get truncated, can you address this?

Thanks!

Done and works a treat :up:

I'm still having the same problem. Every once in a great while. It quits loading the messages, and you have to hit refresh in your browser for it to show up. It does this with all browsers.

I'm guessing you have more than 1 window open on the site?

Also - I don't know about arabic characters. I don't speak it and have never worked with it before in any of my scripts...so I would have to look into it.

nope just one. And it's doing it again right now.

Hate to say it (because I like the features on this one better), but I may revert back to the old one, it never did this.

[BlackLava]

I was having such result when trying to setup the refresh to 500ms instead of the classic 2000ms... With 2000ms I haven't got such freeze (when having only one window opened).
Don't know if that could help...

[silentdub]

Is there a version that will show the forum smiley's so that a user can select a smiley to put in the shoutbox?

It works if you put the code in manually, but then you need to remember each one.

Great App!

[Slewey]

Installed! Works perfectly here, exactly what we were looking for!

But some members (incl. 2 other Moderators) don't see the date & time, but see the date like the format string; d-m-y H:i
Any idea what's going wrong?

[silentdub]

The smilies are automatically parsed. So if someone types :) it gets turned into the smilie.

To change the font size you'll have to edit the "shoutshow.php" file, look for <font>'s that use the "smallfont" class and remove them.

Now currently only admins and SMOD's can delete shouts. You can disable SMOD's ability in the admin CP.

Yes, that does work, but instead of having to type out the smiley, is there a way to add a little button that you can click the smiley you want?

An old version of a regular shoutbox had that and my users miss it.

this looks like an awesome shoutbox.

I am 1 day old on vbulletin administartor/site owner.

I am by no means computer savvy, so I must ask for help.

I do not understand what # 4 and #5 of the following mean?

Can you please help? Thank you

4. upload the entire "shoutbox" folder (DO NOT RENAME IT) to your main vbulletin directory
5. copy and paste the entire contents of "template.txt" into the template you want the shoutbox to show up in

if you want the shoutbox to show at the top of your forum index, go to the FORUMHOME template and find:

"<!-- / guest welcome message -->
<br />
</if>"

and copy and paste the contents of "template.txt" after that.

4. There's a folder in the zip file named that, simply upload to your server via FTP or a File Manager and like it says, do not rename that folder :D ... BTW this is the same folder on your server where your forums are at, you'll see index.php and the folders tha house all your graphics and other files for vBulletin.

5. There's a file in the zip called Template.txt all you do is copy the code in it and paste into the template you want this to show in so for example if you want this to show on JUST your main forum page go to... Admincp --> Styles & Templates --> Style Manager and select your style, now scroll down and look for the template named FORUMHOME then do this:

if you want the shoutbox to show at the top of your forum index, go to the FORUMHOME template and find:

"<!-- / guest welcome message -->
<br />
</if>"

and copy and paste the contents of "template.txt" after that.

NOW no matter what template you out this in copy it before you start and save it somewhere on your desktop, if anything goes wrong go back to that template and paste the original back over the entire code and save and you'll be back to normal and then can come bug us some more :D (J/K about the bugging part)

[DynaMow]

Superman thank you, I will give it a try.

I renamed that vbulletin "upload" file to "forums"

which is in my "public_html" directory.

Do I put it in the "forums" folder or in the "public_html" directory along with the "forums" folder?

Thank you

hey when I go to style manager and select my style. I do not see a box for FORUMHOME there.

There are 3 boxes with code at the top: header, headinclude, footer


then 1 at the bottom named, Additional CSS Definitions

Just like the error said, you're missing the file in forum/shoutbox/shoutdiv.php

upload that file to that location and you should be good. Might be a good idea to make sure all the other files have been uploaded to the proper location as well

[DynaMow]

Sir you absolutly rock. I got it and it is working.

Thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dont go far though, I will be lurking, looking for new cool stuff, which will create more questions from me.

THANK YOU!!!

[Reycer]

ok, just found out that the Shoutbox will not work on the newest upgrades for the IPHONE. Any reasons why not?

NOTE: I phone uses Safari web browser.

[DynaMow]

I have 17 members and all can use the shoutbox but 1.

I have checked everything I know. What could the problem be?

Thank you.

[FeatheredFriend]

I have installed this. Just curious as to if there is a way to make it show up on every page? Thanks!

[DionDev]

I'm going to be releasing a new version soon that should fix some of the problems a couple people have been having.

[macc]

First of all, thank you very much for providing this neat shoutbox! :)
I discovered an issue within Safari4 on MacOSX - the colors in the dropdown-box are not shown, just white spaces.

[drsli]

The same with Cybernetec´s chatbox. This seems to be a browser-related issue with Safari.

[ti07shadow]

nice shoutbox but I prefer vbshout due to the ajax refresh

I had it on my CMPS homepage for a while. Just create a new "Template Module" and here's the code:

First of all, thank you very much for providing this neat shoutbox! :)
I discovered an issue within Safari4 on MacOSX - the colors in the dropdown-box are not shown, just white spaces.

be glad that your Safari users can even use it, my Safari users can't.

[sunnylikbeckham]

damn i did not saw latest version does not have feture to enable it for guests

any way to do it??

or have to downgrade again???

[daveaite]

Shotboxes always consume large server loads.

[IngoT]

Hello, i use vBulletin 3.6.11
Works your Shoutbox 2.1 also under this version, or only under 3.8 ?

Thanks!

[Dark_Wizard]

Shoutbox not working correctly with WOL? Getting unknown location -> /shoutbox/shoutshow.php

[Big-Pete]

ok, when trying to post a smilie code, I am getting a broken image picture. For some reason, it's repeating my home address.
Also does this in the image tag.

OK, scratch that, I fixed it, in shoutshow.php I had to remove ../ from line 32. Otherwise it did what I stated above.

Mine done exactly the same, thanks for the help with this!!

@DionDev, great mod, thanks!

[mysql101]

for some reason the styles don't work right.

I had to add this to the output for them to appear:

echo str_replace ("\"", "", $style);

Otherwise the output would look:

@import url(../"clientscript/vbulletin_css/style-b2d267a2-00005.css");

instead of:

@import url(../clientscript/vbulletin_css/style-b2d267a2-00005.css);

[mysql101]

Not sure I mentioned this in the previous version, but at the bottom of the output, I included a userlist. I just upgraded to the newest ver of dev shoutbox and no longer have this feature:

if ($user_id) {
$t = time () - 300;
$q = "select u.username, u.userid, h.ts from user u, shoutbox_hash h where h.userid = u.userid and h.ts > $t
group by u.userid
order by u.username";
$res = $db->query ($q);
$i = 0;
$users = array ();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc ($res)) {
$i++;
$age = time () - 30;
if ($row['ts'] > $age) {
$b1 = "";
$b2 = "";
} else {
$b1 = "<s>";
$b2 = "</s>";
}
$users[] = $b1."<a target='_user' $highlight
href='/member.php?u=".$row['userid']."'>".$row['username']."</a>".$b2;
}
if ($i) {
echo "<p><b>".count ($users)." users in chat</b>:<br>".implode (", ", $users)."<br>";
}
}

[mysql101]

something I dislike is the cache table stores by IP address. If you're like me and have multiple computers online, the cache checking will assume I have seen text if one of my other computers loads first. Thus I end up missing posts all the time unless I hit reload on my browser.

It would be nice to make the key on userId+ip, that way it keeps track of unique users uniquely.

edit:

I put in bbsessionhash cookie value into the shoutbox_cache query so that everything looks like ip='$ip,$cookie', and that gives me a unique enough cache check so that multiple logged in users can auto reload as content comes in.

[mysql101]

one more thing - the old ver wouldn't allow & character. The new one doesn't allow +

:)

I finally gave up on this buggy shoutbox and replaced with Cyb - Chatbox (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=201283). If you're tired of lack of support and updates, i suggest you switch too (Cyb has all the features of this and more).

I'm sorry for the lack of support, but like I said, I have a new version coming out soon that will address many issues, include a smilies box, and more.

If you don't like this shoutbox then DON'T INSTALL IT. If you REALLY need support, send me a PM, I won't bite. Coming here and bashing coders who volunteer their time writing free mods for people is pathetic and immature.

People like you just piss me off. You have no consideration for the hours I spent working on this. If you don't like my coding or the way I try my best to support my scripts (while working a full time job of 60+ hours a week) then maybe next time you can keep it to yourself. Did you feel proud of yourself for posting this? Or is it just your instinct to try and demotivate other volunteer coders?

I like the look. I installed the newest version, but I get

The requested URL /VB/shoutbox/shoutdiv.php was not found on this server.

I am a fairly new vB user, so this may be an obvious issue, but I cannot find a reference to this error.

Make sure that you put the shoutbox folder in your MAIN vbulletin directory, that should fix it.

[DionDev]

Post removed because coder is sensitive to criticism.

What you said wasn't even criticism. You said "this shoutbox is a buggy and has no updates, go use this other shoutbox".

Do me a favor and just don't visit my threads anymore. I'd rather have appreciative people using my free mods and styles.

[struff]

I installed this about an hour ago. Nice and easy (under 10 minutes and it was up and running).

I have a couple of (non-urgent) questions: would there be a way in the future to have multiple chat rooms? How about a way to move the archives into regular forums? Just a couple of thoughts - no big deal to me if they can't be done.

What would I have to do if I wanted the box to also appear in individual forums as well as on the main page? Can I just edit a template and add the stuff in the txt file?

No rush on replying to these.

Thanks.

Multiple chat rooms probably won't be added. Archiving the shoutbox messages to a forum is a very good idea though. I think I may implement that in the next version.

In order to put the shoutbox in individual forums you would need to put a conditional statement in your FORUM DISPLAY template.

I'm not exactly sure what the statement would be, something like "<if condition="$forumid == 6">". That probably won't work, but if you ask around here you may get the correct conditional statement for this (sorry I'm not sure of it).

Hi DionDev!

Congratulation for this Mod! Really cool!

I have a small bug report for you: on Safari 4 (OSX) no colours are displayed in the choosing list... everything ok with firefox 3.5.1 (OSX too).

And a small suggestion:
it could be nice receive a small sound feedback at new users' shouts.. this option should be activable/deactivable by the user.

Thanks for your work!

Bye! ^^

Yes I am aware that the color picker is not functioning properly for a couple of browsers. The color picker is improved in the next version.

[ChopBam]

I just installed this chatbox on my forum and it seems to work like a charm!
Many thanks for your hard work.

One question right now: is there a quick way to apply usergroup markup to the usernames in the chatbox? Right now the only part of the markup that seems to be working is that my name, as an admin, is italicized. It should also be green, and bold. But I noticed that everybody's name is bold. Just wondering if there's an easy way to customize the names. I took a quick look in the template but didn't see it.

I even went into shoutinsert.php and changed $user_name = $vbulletin->userinfo['username']; to $user_name = $vbulletin->userinfo['musername'];
This only partially worked, as my name was green but didn't light up when I hovered the cursor over it.

In the shoutbox CSS it defines font sizes and whatnot - your best bet is to modify the shoutbox CSS.

[ChopBam]

Where is the shoutbox CSS?
I looked in the PHP files, the template, the style options, and even the shoubox options.

[DionDev]

Take a look at the shoutshow.php file. You can apply your own CSS there.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I tried installing this and it didn't work for me. The shout box is inserted where I put it in the templalate, but nothing is entered when I type something and click "shout it". All I get in the main body of the shoutbox is the text "Powered by Dion Dev Shoutbox v2.1" (or something very similar, I've deleted it now). This is a hyperlink to this thread.

We do not allow guests to view our forum, would that be the problem?

Thanks for your help.

I tried installing this and it didn't work for me. The shout box is inserted where I put it in the templalate, but nothing is entered when I type something and click "shout it". All I get in the main body of the shoutbox is the text "Powered by Dion Dev Shoutbox v2.1" (or something very similar, I've deleted it now). This is a hyperlink to this thread.

We do not allow guests to view our forum, would that be the problem?

Thanks for your help.

re-install the shoutbox and follow the instructions carefully, i bet one of the files became corrupt.

Hello DionDev,

Thank you very much for your prompt reply and for your suggestion. Unfortunately I still can't get it to work... I uninstalled the program and deleted the files, and re-installed it again, didn't work. I uninstalled the program/deleted files again, downloaded a fresh copy of the zip file, followed the installation instructions to a tee.. and still got exactly the same problem. I've attached a screen shot of what appears on my forum index page. It all looks great, but when I type a shout in the shotbox and click "shout it".... the text "vanishes"... but nothing appears in the shoutbox. I know this isn't much information for you to go on to work out what the problem is, but hopefully the screen shot will help. Nothing appears in the table where the shouts should appear.. could it be a database issue?

I'd really appreciate it if you could help as this mod is exactly what I've been looking for and looks great.

Thank you

BEB

This very well might be a rookie question. But I am following the "Fresh Installation" and I am not sure what you mean by step 5. Thanks. Where do I find the templates in my server. How do I do that step.

Thanks

In your vbulletin admin panel, you can edit the templates of your style. This is where you will find the FORUMHOME template, etc. where you copy and paste the contents of the text file to.

[gr8whtd0pe]

It works on my main forums, but not with the CMPS. I can't seem to figure out why. It displays it, all that, but when you click shout! it does nothing.

[DionDev]

email me with your URL and an example gr8

[DeanLag]

Is this server intensive? Cause I've been using Cyb - Chatbox and apparently, it caused me some server issues - so I'm looking for something else

[ErrorLog]

Turkish character dont work.

[gr8whtd0pe]

HA! Fixed it myself. Made another instance of shoutinsert.js and changed

var url = 'shoutbox/shoutinsert.php';
to
var url = 'forums/shoutbox/shoutinsert.php';

then just called up the new one named shoutinsertcmps.js and bingo!

[silentdub]

I had to re-install the shoutbox and now it is white background with black text.

I had it Black background with white text.

Where can I change this?

[snappy1313]

Can I get some help with this? I installed it and it's on the forum pages exactly where I want it BUT inside the shoutbox is a 404 page not found link from my host? What did I do wrong? :(

[silentdub]

Uninstalled.

[nhdriver4]

Patiently awaiting a new version for this. Seems that mysqli users are borked since you are using your own database calls. Until then, Uninstalled.

[FTG STRYKER FG]

Installed in less than 3 minutes. Thx, great mod.

I used vbShout but didn't like it because there is no option to not let guests view it and no option to allow admin/moderators delete shouts.

Only think I would change would be adding the ability for emoticons so people don't have to try and remember the keyboard verisons.

[FTG STRYKER FG]

Does anyone know where I can make these changes? And how? I basically want the shoutbox to look like the rest of my theme:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/11/62.jpg

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/11/63.jpg

2nd image is just so you can see an entire box and its borders.

So basically I want to get the box/fame of the shoutbox to look like the rest of my site/theme. Not just grey and no borders.

Also want to change the gry color that surrounds the "text box" to the maroon color to match the site.

Any suggestions/ideas?

look through the css of your template and find the image location and once you do that edit the xml of vbadanced and pop it in the title image of the headder files and that should do it.

[gearspro]

Ok thanks muchly for the chatbox :P, Having a little problem, which is sometimes the chatbox doesnt refresh to show new posts and you have to refresh the page in order to show the new posts. How can i fix this please?

[LiftedBronco]

Same. Kind of,

I have it installed everything is up and running. But when I try to type a shout it doesn't show....hmm. I'm still working on it though. We will see.

I fixed the 404 thing. So it looks like a BLANK shoutbox. I'm still working on it

-edit-

The problem I'm running into is when I try to type in and I try to " shout " The page just refreshes instead of it "shouting"

[gearspro]

No one will help :(

[maor20094]

unlucky.
it no sapporting hebrew...

[kevsfastz]

I have it installed on my forum, but I am not able to see anything that is "shouted" any ideas?

Kev D

[Been Told]

Is there an option to empty the shoutbox? Deleting the shouts one by one is rather bothersome...

[Been Told]

I have it installed on my forum, but I am not able to see anything that is "shouted" any ideas?

Kev D

Follow the instructions and don't forget about "template.txt"

[jkcerda]

the answer is a few pages back,,,you get that when you have more than one tab open.

Dion, thanks for your work,,cant wait to see the Smilie drop down & would love for the users to be able to edit their shouts :up:

[Empire Gaming]

Does anyone know how to get this to show on all pages "and" work on the vBadvanced home page at the same time? It works great on every page except my main CMPS page.

[gr8whtd0pe]

When I get home Ill post up the files if I can.

[Drago13]

Dion, any idea when you will be able to update your chat system to the new vB4.. Your Shout box is one of the best. Thanks...

[gr8whtd0pe]

Okay so this should work. Open shoutinsert.js and change
var url = 'shoutbox/shoutinsert.php';
to
var url = 'forums/shoutbox/shoutinsert.php';

Save it as something like shoutinsertcmps.js and upload it with the rest of the shoutbox files.

Now go and create a new template under your style manager. Name it: adv_portal_shoutbox , paste this in:
<!-- Dion Dev Shoutbox v2.1 -->

[B@Zzz...]

We use the shoutbox for a few months now, without any problems :up:

But I tried to install vBadvanced and now the smiley's doesn't work anymore :(
If I look at the properties of the "red-cross"symbol I see that the URL is http://www.*****.nl/forum/http://www.*****.nl/forum//images/smilies/icon_razz.gif

But the URL must be: www.*****.nl/forum//images/smilies/icon_razz.gif

Anyone an idea what the problem can be? Because we miss "our" smiley's :D

Thank you!

[B@Zzz...]

Now I manualy changed the URL's of the smiley's in the database and now it's working again. The url was http://www.***.nl/forum//images/smileys/**.gif and I changed it in images/smileys/**.gif (what a job to do with 180 smiley's )
Now the shoutbox is working again, but vBadvanced CMPS is still uninstalled...
When I install it again, I will have the same problem...
Is there a solution to fix this problem?

[B@Zzz...]

Isn't there anyone who can help me to solve my problem?

[socalmike]

Help :) I am getting a Page Not Found showing up in my Shout box.

See: http://www.chasingthechuckwagon.com/forum/index.php

What am I missing?

- Ok. It would help if I copied the correct folder into my Vbul directory. Working now and looking good!

Thanks,

Mike, GameGavel.com

The answer is already given on the first page of this thread... :rolleyes: Problem is solved now! :)
@DionDev, thanks for you PM!

[Fonzi]

for some reason the styles don't work right.

I had to add this to the output for them to appear:

echo str_replace ("\"", "", $style);

Otherwise the output would look:

@import url(../"clientscript/vbulletin_css/style-b2d267a2-00005.css");

instead of:

@import url(../clientscript/vbulletin_css/style-b2d267a2-00005.css);

I have the same issue, exactly where did you add echo str_replace ("\"", "", $style); ?

Thanks

Tnx!

love this shoutbox!
but now i want to move on with vb 4.1 and i ask myself if this shoutbox works with 4.1, and would be even more awesome, if it would work as a widget!

anyone can help me?

[VIP Hawaii]

I liked your shoutbox a lot until I realised that it does not use VBulletin's permissions system, so I uninstalled it. Then I started getting these errors. I have removed the entire /shoutbox directory and reverted the template edits yet I keep getting the database errors! :

If you try clicking on the links to the two "scripts" above, you will see that they do not even exist on our server anymore ... yet the errors persist.

Please help! :(:erm:

Apparently, these guys are out of business.

I tried to link to their URL and it is no longer registered. I deinstalled it and I still see part of the shoutbox still visible - like a shell of itself.

Pretty disappointing.

I don't know what to do now.

Never mind. I figured it out. Deleted the code added to Forum Home. All is well now. :)
