This is a GREAT shout addition , I've one question - how do I stop unregistered or banned e.t.c people from seeing previous Shouts ? .... I've placed these groups in the banned section but unregistered people can still see shouts

Cheers for any help ; :squareeyed:

I hope I don't have to uninstall this hack...

NM I fixed it myself... the who's online feature was set to refresh every 30 seconds. I turned the refresh off completely... and it's working fine now.

yayy me

Is there a flood protection? People on my board are flooding the shoutbox like crazy.

How can I make this work in a side panel similiar to vbadvanced style shouting when it's on the right side? I tried the vbadvanced hack on the forumhome and it didn't work.

How would I format it to be in a skyscraper type format on the forum home?

Is it possible to give a beep sound or some kind of a notification sound when another user have posted in the shoutbox?

i have a lot of users on my forum that use the shout,i recon a beep sound for each shout would drive you crazy after a short time :cross-eyed:

I just fixed an error I was getting that some others were getting too...

If you get this error: Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /vbshout.php on line 288

then do the following (it worked for me anyway)

Find in vbshout.php:

Code:

if ($vbulletin->options['shout_messages_order'])



                {

                        $Output = array_reverse($Output);

                }

Below, add:

Code:

if (isBanned($vbulletin->userinfo) && $vbulletin->options['shout_banned_perms'] > 0)



        {

echo '<b>Sorry, you are currently banned from the shoutbox</b>';

exit(); }

I am under no circumstances saying this code modification will work in your forum environment, nor saying it is the magical fix.

well, that is what my users have suggested.

then what if it is a user option that he can set true or false in his UserCP or as a checkbox next to the shoutbox.

I don't exactly know if it is posted allready, but I fixed the little bug that prevented users to edit or delete their own shouts.

In vbshout.php find:

Code:

if ($Shout['sid'] != $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] && !can_moderate())

and replace it by

Code:

if ($Shout['s_by'] != $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] && !can_moderate())

This line is found twice in the code. Once for editing and once for deleting a shout.

I also checked it on Internet Explorer for Mac OSX. Per usual (with that ancient browser) it wouldn't even load and knocked the page out to kingdom come. That browser is awful with everything.

All does look and works great with this hack and Firefox :up: (my main of course)

How hard would it be to start the shoutbox minimized for safari users? I'm thinking pretty hard...

You may also want to add

),

to the action templates if you use it

I want the shoutbox on both the forum and on a seperate page. After searching long and hard, this (quoted) is the only post I see that offers a solution.

I'm only marginally technical, so can someone please verify that this will work for my needs, or how I can use it for my needs.

AWESOME WOKR ZT !
is it compatible with vBA Gallery and Photopost vBGallery?

Hi I installed this great mod. I have a question. Is there a way to set which smilie category to show? I have nearly 600 smilies and some of the smilies I don't want in the shout box.

I wouldn't mind if only the generic smilies will show

I made a autoprune function for vBshout.
Just download the attached file and put in the /includes/cron directory.
Then make a new scheduled task (see attached jpg).
I run it every night at 3 o clock but offcourse your free to run it more often than that.

What is does: It will delete all shouts that are older than 24 hours.
This way you will allways have an archive that's holds no shouts that are older than two days.
You can alter the deletion time in the php by altering the "(TIMENOW - (60 * 60 * 24)" statement.

Enjoy :)

[edit]Replaced the php with the right one [/edit]

Well done m8, this i will use :)

Thank you

bashy and firstrebel, thanks but please download the file again.
It seemes i've uploaded the wrong php file.
This one is OK, the other one pruned a bit too much.

Sorry if i've messed up your shoutbox....

I am using the CMPS module to output this script to my site.

Can anyone tell me how I can reformat the buildTime output so it doesn't have "Today at" as a value? I would like X:XX AM/PM, nothing fancy.

Thanks!

You can comment out this line:

Code:

$Time = vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'], $time, $vbulletin->options['yestoday']);

But I don't know what that does when you bridge midnight....

Does anyone have any probs with regards to this frezzing, (sort of) and not posting the shout?
I sometimes have to refresh and or close the browser and open a new 1?
I only have it for my staff so only about 5 use it??

Any ideas please?

hmm I cannot find that
where exactly is that...

In vbshout.php. Comment out that line.

Also, I changed my time format:

$Time .= vbdate("g:i A", $time, $vbulletin->options['yestoday']);

instead of banning certain usergroups, is there a way to ban users who are NOT part of certain usergroups?

all of the users on our forum are a 'registered user'. Then as they progress we vote them into a 'members' section with adition rooms they can access, but to do this we make the member functionality a secondary usergroup (ie they are still a primary 'registered user')

What I want is to only allow our 'members' to ahve acces to the shout box. Would this be possible?

I'm thinking it would be easy to chnage the logic in the code, but i thought I'd ask here first before I dig into it.

thanks

Great Mod btw!

Disabling auto refresh and adding a 'refresh' button

Go to style manager, and edit (or customize) the template forumhome_vbshout

Find text:

HTML Code:

<input type="submit" value="Shout" class="button" />

And add immediately BELOW it:

HTML Code:

<input type='button' class='button' value='Refresh' onclick='requestShouts()' />

The code must go above the 'if condition' code.
This line occurs twice - add the new button to both.

THEN

Find the text:

Code:

setTimeout('requestShouts()', 10000)

And comment it out by enclosing it with /* and */ like so:

Code:

/* setTimeout('requestShouts()', 10000) */

You can also delete the line entirely.

The shoutbox will now only refresh if you a) Submit a shout, or b) hit the 'refresh' button.

does anyone know, how i can change the title of the box 'ShoutBox' to something else?

@ Murty: You can edit that in the template Forumhome templates -> forumhome_vbshout (search for "Shoutbox" in the template).

Aftermath, there isn't :)
Check the plugincode of the vbshout plugin at the forumhome_complete hook.
Scroll all the way down, and you'll see how ZT positions the shoutbox.
He substitutes a text in the forumhome template by that text plus $shoutbox.
This way, no template alterations are necessary.

You can edit the banning options for the shoutbox.
Just select "Can not view shoutbox" and you'll have no problem no more ;)

Yes I played with it alittle. The only way i can ban someone from it is if i set it to can not view shotbox. The other features still let the user post. thanks for the help.
