While I couldn't get this to work in the format that you provided in Post #1, I did manage to get the shoutbox to function at the top of every Forumdisplay page (with the exception of the dropdown font shortcuts, which most people can overlook if they know how to manually set font sizes and fonts.)
Here is how I did it, for those members who might be having similar problems.
This is simply an easy and super quick copy and paste fix.
This has been tested to work on vb3.7.0 BETA 3 and it works.
Customize/Edit your style's Forumdisplay Template.
Find $navbar and add below that:
Code:
<form action="vbshout.php?{$session['sessionurl']}" method="post" name="vbshoutform" onsubmit="return postShout(this)">
<input type='hidden' name='do' value='shout' />
<input type='hidden' name='color' />
<input type='hidden' name='fontFamily' />
<input type='hidden' name='fontWeight' />
<input type='hidden' name='textDecoration' />
<input type='hidden' name='fontStyle' />
<div id='shout_emo' style='display:none'>
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="tcat" align="center">
Emoticons
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class='alt2' width='100%' height='100%' align='center' valign='top'>
$Smilie_Build
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />
</div>
