is there any way of changing where it says

"shoutbox- last 10 shouts" could i change it to Spam box-last 10 shouts?

any one?

Try editing the 'shoutbox_forumhome_x_y_z' phrase.

I removed them from the DB and it installed ok, but the problem I have is the install readme does not load?

The page is blank so I dont know the edits it says "No readme files found"?

Anyone?

Uninstall your old shoutbox hack first, and UPGRADE before you get hacked into. (vB that is)

I uploaded the files and when I try to browse to hack_install.php I get the following error.

Warning: chdir(): No such file or directory (errno 2) in d:\Inetpub\Chocolate\install\his_fi les\hack_install_b3.php on line 30

Warning: main(./global.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in d:\Inetpub\Chocolate\install\his_fi les\hack_install_b3.php on line 31

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required './global.php' (include_path='.;c:\php4\pear') in d:\Inetpub\Chocolate\install\his_fi les\hack_install_b3.php on line 31

Any idea why this is happening?

You seem to have a space in the directoryname 'his_files'

Yours: Chocolate\install\his_fi les\ (see the gap between the fi les)

Correct: Chocolate\install\his_files\

Just a question, I installed it on all pages through putting it below the navbar template (or navbar2 template in my case) but the problem is that it doesn't have the name above it, and the button where normally states Shout Now!, says nothing at all now....

My site is www.icedaccounts.com

If anyone can help me with this problem I would be most pleased. Excuse me for taking up your time though :)

There is no space in the file I check it again... that space may be an error when I posted. Below is the message again

Warning: chdir(): No such file or directory (errno 2) in d:\Inetpub\Chocolate\install\his_files\hack_instal l_b3.php on line 30

You have renamed your admincp directory. To fix for the installation and all future installs of hacks that are distributed with the HIS installer do the following:

Go to your 'install/his_files' directory.
Rename 'hack_config_default.php' to 'hack_config.php'.
Open this file with an editor and change the value for $admincpdir to the location of your admincp directory.

Thank you very much...It works

this has to be the most confusing 42 pages in history...haha

so its installed, everything wend great, only...it doesnt show up on the index, the code is there in the template from what i can see. I notice there were quite a few users having this issue, but browsing through I did not see a reply with the solution...

Has anyone found the fix for Shoutbox refreshing, so the whole page does not refresh when you post a shout?

Hallo,

i installed the hack, but i can't see the shoutbox on my forum. What's wrong?

PS: Sorry for my broken english :)
My version is 3.0.06

Nice Greetings from Vienna,

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: print_cpan_header() in /forum/install/his_files/hack_install_b3.php on line 67

You must have edited your hack_install.php (there should never be a reason to do that), because on that line it read 'print_cp_header'.

any help?

When i edit the index.php with the changes it look horrible i dont know what the problem is. The whole style is after diting complete different, it looks really horrible it cant be right

I installed this last night on 3.0.7

Hi,

I've been using the shoutbox without problems for the last few months, but all of a sudden it has started to delete messages everyday. It deletes all messages and starts all over every day.
Haven't changed any files, settings or altered the database.

Any ideas?

Sorry, i have no time to read 42 pages.

I have installed successfull it on vb 3.0.7
Then, i want to ask, how to edit or delete someone 's shout ?

same here :tired:

works great!

error in Admin CP

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

I installed this hack and the actual shoutbox works great, only problem is in the admin CP under shoutbox settings. Most of the settings show up but I get these 2 Errors at the top:

(1) Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home3/check123/public_html/newforum/includes/adminfunctions_options.php(96) : eval()'d code on line 1
If you set this to option #1, then users can edit other users with the same hierarchy rank (default). If you set it to option #2, then users can not edit users with the same hierarchy rank.
Show an Input Box/Textarea on Forumhome?

(2) Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home3/check123/public_html/newforum/includes/adminfunctions_options.php(96) : eval()'d code on line 1

Any ideas on how to fix it?

Hello,
Has anyone tried installing a second shoutbox on the same site?
My users have requested a separate shoubox for the arcade page.
Before I start looking into the installation code, I wanted to know if anyone has tried this.

(Hopefully, this question has not been asked before. I did a search -honest!)

Any info most appreciated.
Thanks, AmpSul

With knowledge of that I'm repeting my self ...

Is there a possibility of a new version where you can have the shoutbox as a popup version ....????

It works!
Now i just have to modularize it for vBadvanced CMPS.

Thanks GeekyDesigns!

I have it running at my site (the shoutbox block) if you want it let me know.

I keep getting this... *See Attachment*

I am getting the same thing that playboy is. I am running 3.0.7

Bump! By The Way I too am running 3.0.7

This means that you already had it installed. You are trying to run the installer again and it tries to add a column that is already there.

Try removing the column first from the language table.

is there a way where you can mass delete shouts?

Is there any support for this hack anymore? I've posted at the Geeky Designs site with a problem similar to one people have posted here with, and I've seen no response to either.

Well, just to have all my bases covered, here's my problem:

I've got problems with the SQL when I try to change usergroup permissions. First, I received this message:
I saw people here had had similar problems, and tried the previously suggested SQL queries to uninstall, as a prelude to reinstalling. The queries were:
Then, when trying to uninstall the hack, I got this:
I'm still getting the error message when I try to change usergroups, and now my homepage is unaccessible; I'm just getting the generic database error message.

My site has been down because of this for over 24 hours now, and I don't know how to fix it. At this point, I'd be happy just getting the shoutbox uninstalled. Please, SOMEBODY help.
