Chat for vb 4.2.5 / PhP 7.1

[mdawg]

Which one actually works?

Which works the best?

[snakes1100]

vbshout by dragon byte, works on 7.3 as well.

[mdawg]

How do you get vb 4.2.5 to work on 7.3? I have it locked at 7.1

Okay I'll give vbshout a try. I use vbshout on my vb5 forums, although they offer zero support these days, still, it works.

although they offer zero support these days

...Priority support is handled at the Developers Website.

Dragon Byte does not upgrade any of their vbulletin apps, so whatever support they might provide is not of much benefit.

For vb4 at least since vb4 is no longer changing, this might be okay, but for vb5 their shout box is stuck working fully only with prior versions.

MGC Chatbox Evo works with PHP 7.4.7 so far.

After installing, do this fix:

I installed DragonByte vb4 shout box to my vb4 forum and it is working as expected.

However, the vb5 version of shoutbox just stopped working, apparently with vb 5.6.2

I tested vb version 4.25 and PHP version 7.4.28.
It works flawlessly.
