How can i reduce the maximum Characters of a Shout?
Any Ideas? :confused:

NTLDR

11-01-2002 08:23 PM

Find:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($type == 'shout' && $comment_submit && trim($message) != '' && $bbuserinfo[userid] > 0) {

Add after:

PHP Code:


		
			
$message = substr($message,0,CHARS);

Change CHARS to the maximum number of characters they can use, any extra are just removed. Not the best way IMO, but the quickest and easiest

Alternativly you could do something similar to just reduce the text shown on forumhome.

If you change the name of the file you will have to change any references to the file name in the templates, also.

Sure. I changed the MetaRefresh in the File itself, and the Form in the postshout template.
But at first, this has no effect, and it is for the first call of the site unneccesary.

This is an outstanding hack (the best since FireFly's "Quick Reply Box")! Thank you VERY much, TWTCommish, your work is greatly appreciated! :)

Here's an idea - wouldn't it be great if the actual shouts (in the left column), were loaded into an <iframe>, where they could then be refreshed at a frequent interval? This would allow you to see new shouts without loosing a message you might be typing...

Hey all

Just a quick question - is it possible to limit the number of characters per shout?

Some of my users have been posting shouts that are more like mini-novels, and its throwing my entire front page out of whack!

A quick improvement to the shoutbox_postshout template:

This allows you to limit the characters posted by checking the form onsubmit. Javascript taken from here because I'm lazy. Replace the shotubox_postshout template with:

Code:

<script Language="JavaScript">

<!-- 

function Length_TextField_Validator()

{

if ((vbform.message.value.length < 3) || (vbform.message.value.length > 500))

{

mesg = "You have entered " + vbform.message.value.length + " character"

if (vbform.message.value.length != 1) {

mesg = mesg + "s"

}

mesg = mesg + ".\nValid entries are between 3 and 500 characters.\n"

alert(mesg);

vbform.message.focus();

return (false);

}

return (true);

}

-->

</script>



<table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="0"  width="100%">

  <form action="/edge/shoutbox.php" method="post" name="vbform" onsubmit="return Length_TextField_Validator()">

  <input type="hidden" name="type" value="shout">

  

  <tr>

    <td bgcolor="#006633" width="100%"><normalfont color="#FFCC00"><b>Send A Message</b></normalfont></td>

  </tr>

</table>



<table cellpadding="8" cellspacing="0" border="0"  width="100%">

  <tr bgcolor="#DFDFDF">

    <td width="100%"><normalfont><b>Message:</b></normalfont> &nbsp; <smallfont><b>[ 

<a href="$bburl/misc.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=showsmilies" class="small" target="_blank">Smilies</a> - 

<a href="$bburl/misc.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=bbcode" class="small" target="_blank">vB Code</a> ]</b></smallfont>

    <br/><textarea name="message" rows="10" cols="60" class="bginput" wrap></textarea>

    <br/>$smiliebits</td>

  </tr>



  <tr bgcolor="#DFDFDF">

    <td width="100%"><input type="submit" name="comment_submit" value="Shout Now!" class="bginput" accesskey="s"></td>

  </tr>

  

  </form>

</table>

This is working great on my site, but I was wondering if it would be possible to add a "Who is chatting" I want to use this as a chat for my site.

Thanks!

Hey this is an awesome hack :smoke: Thanks for your hard work on this one my members love it.

I have one ???, is there a way that I can make the shoutbox invisible or disable it for a specified user group? Our 'trolls' like to use it to post garbage.

thanks for your help :)

Will it be hard to include a ´Who´s chatting´ function?

My users would love to have one...they love the shoutbox...

Is there any way to give my moderators the ability to delete "shouts"?

Alchemyst

Is there a way to allow mods to do the "Mass Prune" option from the Moderator's Control Panel?

Here's what i made from it:

http://www.housequake.com/

I am very happy with it, but the only problem i have is how to break up long links, because it will mess up my forumhome page. Any thoughts on that problem?

PS: the option (Number of characters before wrapping) in the Control Panel doesn't work with links...

Is there any way to disable the [IMG] code? Members are abusing the Shoutbox by shouting extremely large pictures. Very annoying.

Another Great Hack TWTCommish! I am still trying to figure out how to put a preview box on my home page, but I am sure I will get it eventually.

I am using the myvbindex.php home page provided here at VB.org.

The bottom of my index.php file looks like this. I am trying to get multiple shouts to appear, no luck. Someone help me out here.

PHP Code:


		
			
$shoutz = $DB_site->query('SELECT u.username, s.userid, s.shout_text, s.timestamp FROM user u, shoutbox s WHERE u.userid = s.userid ORDER BY s.timestamp DESC LIMIT 10');

while ($shout10top = mysql_fetch_array($shoutz)):

    ++$shout10topnbsp;

    $shout[timestamp]  = vbdate('n-j-y, g:i:s a', $shout10top[timestamp]);

    $shout[shout_text] = bbcodeparse($shout10top[shout_text]);

    $shouts .= "<smallfont><b>Posted by <a href=\"member.php?s=$sesion[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$shout10top[userid]\" class=\"small\">$shout10top[username]</a><br> Posted @ $shout[timestamp]</b></smallfont><br/><smallfont>$shout[shout_text]</smallfont><br><br>";

endwhile;



eval("\$the_shoutbox .= \"".gettemplate("forumhome_shoutbox")."\";");

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate('forumhome')."\");");

Replace the contents of the "forumhome_shoutbox" with:

PHP Code:


		
			
<tr id="cat">

    <td bgcolor="#1D6AA0" colspan="6"><a href="$bburl/shoutbox.php?s=$session[sessionhash]" title="The Shoutbox"><normalfont color="#EEEEFF"><b>The Shoutbox - Latest Shout</normalfont></b></a></td>

  </tr>

  

  <tr>

    <td bgcolor="#13486D" colspan="6">$shouts</td>

  </tr>

As in Bald Bouncer's original post?
