I installed the Lite version. The shouts are not loaded, it keep saying Loading on FF and sometimes on chrome. On click of the usertag or active user tab it shows up. I was checking the webdeveloper tool. it keep saying :
[12:53:48.197] [12:53:48] shouts AOP file returned new shouts:
1370714018
1370711649

however nothing shows up..

same thing happened to me until I CHMOD the /dbtech/vbshout/app folder to 773 as it said in the Readme.txt file. then I got the welcome message stating it was correctly installed.

Thanks.. that resolved the Loading issue.. howwver i see the chat loaded a little show.. when i type something and click on shout .. it take a while to populate into the chat window

under ACP>DBTech vbshout>instance management then click on "edit" in right column and then you'll be able to edit the delay time along with other settings.

I think I answered my own question's when editing ""instance management" menu. But still trying to get it to display on every page as instructed on this edit menu. under "Display Settings" Do I have to 'Disable' and then add:
{vb:raw show.vbshout_instance1}
to the navbar template @ beginning or end?
Haven't been able to display on all except forumhome.....

That is correct :)

For the record, here's the canned response regarding display:



To put vBShout in a custom location, do the following:


Step 1: AdminCP -> DBTech - vBShout-> Instance Management -> [Edit].

Step 2: Change the Auto-Display Shoutbox setting to Disabled.

Step 3: Write down the the Varname setting. For the default shoutbox, it's instance1. The rest of this guide will assume you replace instance1 with the actual Varname if it is different.

Step 4: Enter the Style Manager and add either {vb:raw show.vbshout_instance1} (vB4) or {$show[vbshout_instance1]} (vB3) to the templates you wish the shoutbox to appear in.


Follow these steps as described and you will have total control over the position of the Shoutbox.
Please note that some locations may not work as intended on vBulletin 3.8, and also note that it is not designed to go in the Forum Blocks side-bar (vBulletin 4).

The images for the shoutbox (smilies, bold, italic, etc.) aren't appearing for me, but when I right-click where the images should be and choose to open image in new tab, the address appears to be correct but the images still do not appear.

Any fix?

How do I upgrade to the latets version? Thanks

Drag and drop the contents of the upload folder to your forums folder.

Same way as you installed it in the first place; drag and drop the contents of the upload folder to your forums folder and re-import the XML file with Overwrite on :)

These instructions are explained in the readme.txt file :)

The images are uploaded to public_html/forum/dbtech/vbshout/images/editor but they don't appear on the site

I've just uploaded the images elsewhere. They appear now.
