Sorry for the late-ish reply...
I don't see a "minimum posts limitation" setting.
I have "shouts to display" set to 75, and "minimum time between shouts" set to 3.

One of the people who can't see the box has a completely up to date gaming computer, so that makes it stranger that he can't see it.

I had Shoutbox version 5.4.8, and some members could not see the shoutbox - these members are scattered all over including the U.S.
So about 2 weeks ago I updated to version 6.0.8. Now more people cannot see the box, including those that already couldn't see it.

Assuming most people have updated browsers, is there a known reason why not everyone can see the box?

Thank you!

Your reply?

The upgrade doesn't work. I uploaded new files, 777'd the aop folder and imported the new XML and the shoutbox is stuck on "Loading...". It doesnt load my saved font colors etc either.

http://forum.dotxen.com for demo.

I am having the same problem after installing the latest version. Please help

Could you explain this better? This is something i would pay for.

Just so you understand. i want to run VSA Chatbox on 1 skin and i want to run Vbshout on another skin.

Giving the users the option to choose either skin and use either chatbox

Here's the canned reply for putting the SB in a custom location:

To put vBShout in a custom location, do the following:


Step 1: AdminCP -> DBTech - vBShout-> Instance Management -> [Edit].

Step 2: Change the Auto-Display Shoutbox setting to Disabled.

Step 3: Write down the the Varname setting. For the default shoutbox, it's instance1. The rest of this guide will assume you replace instance1 with the actual Varname if it is different.

Step 4: Enter the Style Manager and add either {vb:raw show.vbshout_instance1} (vB4) or {$show[vbshout_instance1]} (vB3) to the templates you wish the shoutbox to appear in.


Follow these steps as described and you will have total control over the position of the Shoutbox.
Please note that some locations may not work as intended on vBulletin 3.8, and also note that it is not designed to go in the Forum Blocks side-bar (vBulletin 4).


Now instead of editing ALL skins, edit only the skin you want THIS shoutbox to appear in.

Ah, sorry that's a Pro-only option, my bad :(

Then I have no idea.

Are there any common denominators between the users who report they can't see it? Using a particular skin, all members of the same usergroup(s), etc?

Great!!! Worked perfect.. now how would i go about removing the VSA Chatbox from that particular skin.. Its now showing both chatbox on top of each other..

DragonByte Tech 10-18-2012 01:02 PM

That, unfortunately, I have no idea about as I've never used that mod :(

Hello,

which stylevar use DBTech for font-size? I have a really smal font-size on my them and i want to make them bigger but dont know how.

Maybe you can tell me the font-size, which vBShout use?

Makaveli007 10-26-2012 12:26 PM

Is there a way to have all the files served as part of this mod to only be served to members that are logged in?

The reason I ask is because my site usually has a number of guests online, and guests cannot view the shoutbox. Even though the shoutbox is completely disabled for guests, a number of files still load for guests including:

dbtech_vbshout.css
dbtech_vbshout_colours.css
dbtech_vbshout_editor.css
jquery.tmpl.min.js
vbshout.js?v=610

They are not very big files, but they are still 3 additional CSS and 2 additional Java files that each person must load, on every page.

im getting a db error when i try to install it any suggestions

It's not using a stylevar, just the normal forum's font size.

It's 11px. Changing the size per-user is a Pro-only feature :)

Permissions for viewing the Shoutbox is not available by the time the files have to be added to the page, I believe.

Additionally, each person do not have to load them on every page, as the browser's cache will have cached the files thus making the effective time to load them zero :)

I am not DBT but I can help you since I am here.

You can do this by putting the below code in one of your common templates such as header or footer. If you have more than one shoutbox, change the number at the end to match your instance. A good place for it would be at the very bottom of the header template, or very top of the footer template.

{vb:raw show.vbshout_instance1}

Menno11 11-02-2012 02:53 PM

Thx voor your anser.
But it will not work..

I put this on the top of the footer.
and in the header..

any idey what i do wrong ?

Menno

Mr von 11-04-2012 12:06 AM

@Makaveli007
That's not quite right.

@Menno11
So it is correct.

Editing Instance: Shoutbox
Display Settings auf nicht aktiv setzen

navbar template editing
"Varname" for example {vb:raw show.vbshout_instance1} seen in
Editing Instance: Shoutbox

search:
Code:

<div id="breadcrumb" class="breadcrumb">
        <ul class="floatcontainer">
                <li class="navbithome"><a href="index.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" accesskey="1"><img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/navbit-home.png" alt="{vb:rawphrase home}" /></a></li>
                {vb:raw navbits.breadcrumb}
                {vb:raw navbits.lastelement}
        </ul>
        <hr />
</div>

<div class="welcomearea">
    <div class="welcome_right">
        <div class="welcome_padding">

  <div class="welcome_image">
  <iframe width="375" height="210" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/sWMhADqlPYg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
  </div>

insert below
Code:

{vb:raw show.vbshout_instance1}
Now it will be seen everywhere. :)

Menno11 11-04-2012 08:26 AM

Thx Mr Von.

It's work fine.
Thx men.

My theme is a darker theme and for some reason I went from an older version of DBTech VBShout to the new 6.0. the old vbshout default font color and time color went with the theme, but when I upgraded to the 6.0 it's black (Does not work at all with my website (Dark theme)), I can't seem to find out how to edit this. I'm running the Lite version, any help?
(I have to install a new Chat Box while I await a response but would prefer to use this one!)

The default font colour has always been black, but until a colour is chosen by the user it will use the forum default.

To be more precise, if users don't select a different colour, but saves for instance Bold, Black will be recorded as their default font colour too.

You can edit the available colours in the dbtech_vbshout_editor_toolbar_colors template :)

Alright. Well I went on the official DBTech website and download the Version before the latest and tried installing that. Almost everything was fixed. The newest version does not blend with my theme and makes everything a color that cannot be seen. The Time format color is black, and the default color is black (When I go to the version below the latest, the default color matches my forum perfectly like before.) I did figure out how to edit the Time format colors by doing what you said, but the only way to change the default color was to add html color tags around the message inside of the template or whatever. This did work, however doing this essentially disables the ability to change your font color.

Bottom line something in the newest version isn't blending with my theme, all the version before that blend fine.

Use the manual deployment instructions in the mod to put it in the Navbar template.

Please do not post the same post multiple times or "bump" your post. It's generally considered to be rude. Thanks :)

Also, see the previous quote in this post and use that to control the position of the SB.

How do you remove the active users shoutbox?

shout area is greyed out. I can type a shout, hit enter and it looks ok, but you can't view it.

Any ideas?

http://uangames.net/i/images/capture.png

The input area works off of two StyleVars:
input_background and control_focus_background. The first is before the user selected the input area, and the 2nd is while the user is typing.

The actual shouts' background area works off of the postbit_background StyleVar.


Fillip

itzkr0me 11-27-2012 04:41 PM

^ Thanks for the reply. However, the background shouldn't matter unless my text was the same color... problem is, no text is showing there. It's not a matter of them being the same color. Nothing is showing up. I've even uninstalled and reinstalled it.

I love this shoutbox. I'm using something else at the moment, but I really miss the features of your box.
