I am running php 7 with vb 5.2.1 but even before when I was on php 5.4 it was the same. vbshout works but this "200 parsererror" always appears upon first loading the shoutbox, and then goes away after a little while.

I just did a completely fresh new install of vb 5.2.1 on a different website, different host running php 5.4 and it is the same with shoutbox on that site. ]

In both cases, I am installing the shoutbox that is coming off this thread right here.

The files on vB.org have not been updated to reflect the changes made in recent vB5 version to the AdminCP paths. This will be corrected in the near future.

Not sure what is going on but when using the shoutbox I get this error at the top every now and again.

Error: 200 parsererror

Also whenever I click on a button for shoutbox in the admin such as "Add New Chatroom" it brings me to a page where it shows the normal forum and the message "Invalid Page URL. If this is an error and the page should exist, please contact the system administrator and tell them how you got this message."

Not sure what is going on. On a side note all the buttons in the normal vbulletin admin work fine.

This:

Invalid Page URL. If this is an error and the page should exist, please contact the system administrator and tell them how you got this message.

is making it impossible to change any of the admincp settings.

This product does us no good if it is visible to unregistered guests.

I'll update the files here @ vB.org within the week in order to eliminate this confusion.

Tested and working fine for me on 5.2.1 here, but as others have mentioned your admincp settings are completely out of whack ... we cannot save any of the settings in this mod as we keep getting hit with the "invalid page url" msg that @ProSportsForums posted above

Will look for your update to the admincp ... thx anyway for this really nice mod @DragonByte Tech

Okay here are my findings, when I uploaded the version of shoutbox here from this vbulletin.org thread and ran it on my vb5 forum, it worked (more or less) except for the parsererror200 at the beginning.

Then when I upgraded the server to PhP 7, the shoutbox did not work at all - any entry of a "shout" would result in no post, nothing.


Then I went here, to:
http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/store...hout-vb5-beta/
and downloaded the "demo" version which after download, it is noted as the same version as what I got from this thread 6.1.0a8 [lite] but is according to DB tech an updated version even though version number have not been changed, which apparently it IS updated, because this version seems to work on my vb 5.2.1 PhP 7 running forum.

However, be aware that after first uploading the files, CH mod'ing to 777 and uploading the XML file, your forum may upon first load look scarily whacked, then on second refresh of browser you will get a not found server error, and then finally, the forum will load properly and vbshout will work.

I put out a hotfix that should resolve ACP issues.

Still not fixed. Will not save settings. Invalid URL error.

I'm unable to replicate this issue. Have you renamed your AdminCP? If so, change it back to the default and see if this works for you.
