Hello,

How do you launch the Shout detached from the Nav Bar?

Thanks,

Detached shoutbox is a Pro-only feature, if you are running Pro then please post in our Pro support forums :)


Fillip

How do I set it up so it only appears in a particular forum?

In the FORUMDISPLAY template, wrap the Shoutbox code in :)


Fillip

Hey mate, thanks for your assistance.

I'm a big noob at this sort of thing; What can I search for to bring up the shoutbox code? I tried searching for "Shout", "box" etc and it didn't bring up anything.

How do you remove the popup sound everytime you refresh the page, it's annoying.

I have enabled "Unregistered / Not Logged in users" under settings.

It still prevents them from shouting? Why..

How can this be fixed?

Turn off sounds via the Instance Management screen, or click the speaker icon in the shoutbox toolbar (the latter is for your user and for that tab only) :)

This is intended behaviour. Guest shouting is not supported at this time, the usergroup is included because it's a part of vB's usergroup list.

Sorry :(


Fillip

Thank you for the quick reply, one last question which is the most important. Some members are not able to see the box area where you are suppose to write to send out the messages. In fact most of them cannot but I can and some other members can aswell, what am I missing?

could be permissions or a mod has banned them from the chat box. Check there profile to see if they are banned from it

The user profile permissions do not have any option to edit the shout settings. In the adminCP options I also don't see how it can distinguish the setting between user and/or usergroups.

Any additional information would be helpful, thank you.

Quoting my post for further assistance. :)

Ok I got it working thank you. Last question, what settings should I look for to have the shoutbox display in every page of the forum? thanks

Sorry, I don't understand your question.

Also add the code to "SHOWTHREAD" :)


Fillip

Not seeing the option to disable PMing. Is this removed from the Lite version?

Yeah, that is a Pro-only feature and has been since (I believe) version 5 when we switched to an "instance" setup rather than "one & only one shoutbox" :)

How do I align the copyright to the right? Just to go with my footer...

nbadimensions.net/forums/

In the footer template, add the right alignment around

Need some help...I must be doing something wrong. I installed v6.2.0 and shoutbox is stuck on loading. Looked for a solution...couldn't find one so I downgraded it to the last working version I had, 6.0.8....still stuck on loading. I have a couple other DBTech mods installed. Any ideas?

Attempting to visit http://officialytr.byethost3.com/for...shout.js?v=620 produces a 403 Forbidden error and visiting it in the browser redirects to a website that looks very un-trustworthy.

Have you had a server intrusion? Is "SecureSignupOffer" something you recognise?


Fillip

thats strange. That site is a redirect for when a page doesn't exist....But I know I uploaded all the files, I'll have to check them again
Now i'm starting to think my freaking host is the problem.....meh...thats what I get for being a cheap punk. I'll be looking into migrating to host gator in a few weeks and I'll see if I get a different result. That file does exist on the server...It's in my ftp...I have no idea why I can't access it through the browser.

vBShout v6.2.1

"Invisibility" Toggle

• Click the activity status icon to toggle invisibility
• Uses the status icon from your vBulletin skin
• Hides the user from all activity displays in the entire instance
• Great for surprising friends with shouts out of the blue!

Fillip

Is there a way to only add the shoutbox to ONE section of my forum? I'm quite sure this has been asked but it's just not feasible for me to read all 159 pages of this thread. :(

is there a way to disable all the static shout notication on lite
i like to disable the "usernameX has reached X posts"

Change your "Post Marker Interval" to 0 and it should turn it off.

thank italynstylion i set it to like 10000 so i believe it lesser the notice alot

This is posted in the description.....this is exactly what I want to learn how to do. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

You're welcome!

What do you mean, one section? Do you mean one specific forum?

If so, follow the on-screen instructions for manually deploying your Shoutbox instance and wrap the code in when editing the FORUMDISPLAY template.



Fillip

thans

Fillip,

Yes, I mean I don't want the shoutbox showing on the forum INDEX but rather in a particular area/section of the forum (like the off topic section).

I'm not sure what you mean regarding the "on screen instructions" though. Where are those located?

Ooooo, I figured it out! Marking this one as INSTALLED!

Thanks Fillip!

Love this mod. Recently installed it in place of an older mod, and the chatbox is really the backbone of my forums. Good work! We're looking at upgrading to pro here shortly, but I have a question.

Myself and my members have been noticing the popping sound is occurring rather randomly. (It just went off twice while typing this.) Nothing is happening in the box; no notifications, PMs, invites, or shouts. Lots of members leave it running in the background while doing other things, but they often come back to check and find nothing has changed. I've tested it in both Chrome and Firefox.

Installation went as expected, no errors popped up. Went through the sound checklist here on the forums. Sound was selected, turned on, Quicktime installed, <audio is in the page source.

Any idea what could be causing it? It's not a major issue, but would like to work out why it's popping so often. :D

hi!

i installed the lite version, but how can i place the editor under the shouts?

If you are talking about where you type the shouts, the ability to move the location is in the pro version.

:( its not good :(

What's not good? You can get a license from their website and then have the ability to move it, with alot more options than that too.

i like this chat but for free, and a license isnt free...

True, but that is the only way to move the input area unfortunately.

i know. Thank you very much your help!
