ok this didn't happen when I first installed the SB, but for the past few days, the box clicks and jumps when it refreshes. Sometimes if you're typing something in the message line for the SB, it disappears and you have to start over.

any ideas why and what to do???

@ Ohio: I noticed when I put the full url in the templates it started doing that. If you've modified the url's to vbshout.php in the templates, you might want to change them to an internal reference. i.e. /forum/vbshout.php vs http://www.myforum.com/forum/vbshout.php. Hope that helps.

@thepimp

can u show me the code please?

say what?

I haven't edited any urls. I just followed the instructions that came with it. The shoutbox is on my forum at http://exquisitelyerotic.net/forums
Like I said it didn't do this when I installed it a week ago, only the past day or two

2 questions:

1) what are the templates changes? I guess only forumhome right?
2) does this hack use lot of bandwidth?

I have a question about this:

I would like this ban check to also check secondary groups. Is that possible? How would the code need to be changed?

Thanks
:nervous:

Is it possible someone could make a add-on to give rooms for certain usergroups? Like mods having their own room and you can switch between public and mod channel?

It's not a chat, it's a shoutbox, Replicators ;)

I would like to have the archive be pruned so that only shouts from the last 24 hours are saved. Running a cron every hour or so. Cause it's gonna be a huge table if the box is intensively used.
But it would be nice if the shoutstatisics are saved (total shouts, shouts per member etc)

I still can't figure out why the shoutbox is jumping everytime it refreshes. I thought it was supposed to refresh smoothly??

I agree, phpMyAdmin shows nearly 1000 in the past week. I suppose I could empty the table every week or so or manually delete entries over a few days old. But what a hassle.
