should i be worried? what is causing this? my VPS has 1 gig of ram

does new version fix this if it was a bug?

Upgrade to the new version.

Dion, I would like to add this shoutbox in one of my vBadvanced CMPS modules so I can have it in my portal page... can you tell me the steps to do this?

Thanks

Install it as normal, and insert the template.txt code into your VBA CMPS portal template.

I like it.

Doesn't really work here...

You use mysql_fetch_assoc($sql) instead of $db->fetch_array($sql) methods, so on some configurations all your queryreaders are fubar. Looks like using MySQLi does the trick.

I found:
line 21 in shoutshow.php
line 8, 9, 18 in shoutinsert.php
line 34, 75 in shoutarchive.php
....

I hope changing all the methods will make it work.

Yes I will be changing that for the next version. I've also used mysql_result in a couple of places, that will be changed as well.

How do i change the color of the default shouts? (shouts that dont have a color selected), it defaults to black and its hard to read black and a dark background.

I want the shoutbox to be used by staff members only. Can I make it impossible for ordinary registered users to post in the shoutbox?
