it aint been fixed....quote marks still give that problem?!?!?

and the "&" sign is causing that...so its still the same

Thanks Brad!

uninstalled this, and re installed the original version 2.0...that works fine

I was doing the upgrade and got this message when trying to uninstall the first version.

Database error in vBulletin 3.5.2:

Invalid SQL:
drop table `shout`;

MySQL Error : Access denied for user: '***@localhost' to database '****_vbulletin'
Error Number : 1044
Date : Monday, April 24th 2006 @ 02:33:41 AM

I placed stars where my site name was for security.

Should I just try importing the new file without uninstalling the old one (maybe it will just overwrite it)? Not sure if this can mess it up so I'll wait.

Cheers

Could it be that the settings are not working well ?
Yesterday i disabled the Smiley function, in the new Version i was able to disable IMG-Tag and enable Smileys, but i could not enabnle the smileys back.
Even the setting, disable Smiley Box is not working, its still there if i disable.

Could somebody confirm, or should i reinstall vbshout ?

You need to ask your host to give you the proper permissions to drop tables on that mySQL account.

At any rate you do not need to uninstall the product file, just upload the new vbshout.php file and you're patched.

Thanx Brad :banana:

I upload the vbshout.php as suggested.

Now when I use the & I get &amp or when I try and use " I get "

???

Make sure you have the latest vbshout.php file, sounds like you still have the old one.

That was the file I just downloaded labeled as vbshout fixed v3.

Now I'm running the 2.0 version. Would I also need to import the xml file in that zip?

Same here.

is there a way to make this into a popup page instead of on the forum home, i want users to be able to access it from anywhere, which would be cool. it would prevent from using the shout on all pages hack, cuz that just KILLS server load sometimes.

Same here as well.

ditto... I don't see what differences in the new zip file? I can't see a reference to "v2.0.2" anywhere... is this in the new .php file or the install/upgrade txt instructions?

Worked for me, I can now type a ""

i'm still having issues with the ""'s even after the upgrade :(

Works great, but has a nasty habit of loading in the middle of the shoutbox....as opposed to the latest shout....quite annoying.

Seems to latch onto images too.

Yep same here even after the upgrade the quotes still don't display properly .. same for > and <

I have to edit vbshout.php and set striphtml = false

Also is there a way to turn off the quote and code vbcodes??

Sorry Brad, but I used the php file in the zip you have up there^.

< is STILL rendering &lt;
> = &gt;
" = &quot

nothing has changed

not me

hey guys i need to make it so my moderators cant edit the shoutbox, how do i do this???

Id like it so only my Smods and myself can, however it seems my mods have the same priverlages

If you are one of the people having issues with the last fix I posted, try using the attached file instead. Let me know if this one works or not.

yup, that fixed it, thank you!

Able to add "'s now Brad. Thank you

worked. thanks!

It is working now! Thank Brad!

It is server intensive because it is refreshing too often (in every 10 second!). This rate can be changed to a lower value, let's say in every 2 or 5 minutes.

To change the rate, find in forumhome_vbshout template:

and replace with

Note:

1/ 120000 milisecond = 2 minutes :D

2/ For those who put the shout box in front page with Advanced CMS hack, find and replace the adv_portal_vbshout template (or whichever the name you use).

Brad, if the refresh rate can be controlled in the vBshout options, it would be great!

8)

Thanks Brad, you're last option did the trick :)

How can I uninstall this if I get an error while trying to? I go to Product Manager and uninstall and get this error, can someone tell me how to remove this so I can get it fixed????

uninstalled just because of the huge server load...................

would this work with vb3.5.4? sorry if this question was already asked. I searh but did not find the answer.:alien:

Anyone have a suggestion for how to fix this? Its pretty annoying.

I'm giving this a try at 40 sec.

Yes, Im running it on 3.5.4

was that directed as a solution with my mod permissions?

Its a 5 minute edit to the vbshout.xml file, then reinport it.

I've done it to my install.

If I can get permission from ZT I will post it here.

where i can set, which staff is allowd to delete shouts ?

"AJAX Edit/Delete (staff can edit/delete all shouts)"

Is it for all Staff ?

I had also an old Shoutbox ( don't know, which one)

There i was able to set different settings for the bbcode and IMG things.
Possible to add them also, because for the htaccess Problem, i have to disable the smileys, and my users r using that often.

pls see Image ..

th@nks

i have been asking the same question for days......

Thanks for the shoutbox, my members love it.

Wondering if you could help with 1 little thing, how can i make a gap, between the bottom of my forums and the shoutbox... like in this picture...

http://www.splforum.com/vbshout.jpg

You can see the shoutbox on the splforum.com, if you dont know what i mean, between all the forums there is a small white gap, except the shoutbox, it is right on the mark forums read part.

Thanks in advance for any help. :laugh:

Thanks for the shoutbox!

as far as I know there is no setting for which staff member can delete all messages. Any staff member can, with /prune

all of your shoutbox options are set by going to vBulletin options --->>> vbShout Options
