I like the screenshots and the concept of the hack.

I hope it works for RC1??

I am confused a little vb2, vb3 Beta, vb3 Gamma now vb3 RC1 ----big diffences between vb3 Beta and vb3 Gamma and RC1?? I think.

This has been tested and known to work on vB3 Gamma, however, without testing it on vB3 RC1, I cannot say that it will work with 100% certainty, although it should work perfectly.

I've installed this on my test site, which is RC1

It went quite smooth

I only had one hickup, if you want to call it that

In templates

edit FORUMHOME

Find
<if condition="$birthdays">

It should be
<if condition="$show['birthdays']">

But this is fairly obvious

Excellent work :banana:

I'll install it on my main site once I upgrade to RC1 tonight ;)

I knew I forgot something.

Zip updated, thanks. :)

Ohhh the update looks brilliant!!!

templates and php files I can do :)

mysql and phrase, I do not :(

I do not quite understand this quote? in the zip there is a file called "phrasesonly" and the contents look like sql - How do I insert the contents of this file please?

MySql: I can run query normaly, I have never had to do this :( where would I need to edit them please?

Some enlightenment would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hmm can you make it so ppl can reply on the forumhome page? and not have to go to the shoutbox.php to respond?? lil reply box on the forumhome page like on www.yaxay.com

Don't worry about phraseonly.sql, the 2 .sql files you need to worry about are shoutbox.sql and settings.sql. If you do not have table_prefixes, do not worry about editing any .sql files.

Run the .sql files in phpMyAdmin, go to the phrase manager, edit a phrase, and save without modifying. Go to vBulletin Options, edit the Shoutbox Settings to what you want and save (or save without modifying). Edit a usergroup, modify the shoutbox permissions to how you want them, and save (or save without modifying). That should do it.

It's a simple template edit to the FORUMHOME template. I don't have the HTML right now, but it's not that hard, just a simple form and textarea.

OK and thank you Link14716, I will try this later and see how I get on ;)

I understand a bit more now and I missed the usergroup part :( still a bit unsure about the pharse part. I have done like a Global add to the pharse, so this is something new to me, sorry for that.

I also would like please:

thanks

No problem, Glad to help

Found another problem as well for RC1

Edit these templates

SHOUTBOX, shoutbox_editshout

find

replace with

You should find 2 instances in each template

BTW, I really want that post in the forumhome box as well, Cant wait for that update :p
