To uninstall, you need to

Delete the following files
shoutbox.php = forum root directory
shout.php = admincp directory
shout_install.php = admincp directory

Execute these three MySQL commands

ALTER TABLE language drop phrasegroup_shoutbox
ALTER TABLE language drop phrasegroup_shoutmanager
ALTER TABLE usergroup drop shoutboxpermissions

Remove the "shout" table" in your database.

Remove everything in your database referring to the word "shoutbox". (They are pretty much in the "phrase, phrasetype & template" tables.

Remove all the shoutbox templates and phrases. Youc an do this in the database with the above step or do them one at a time in the vb ACP.

Modify you FORUMHOME template and remove the shoutbox code. It is easily identifiable. It begins right after the line that says "$navbar" and ends when you see the <!--/shoutbox code.

Don't forget to revert your php files to the last backup (you did make a backup prior to installing this hack, didn't you?)

Sorry I cannot be more specific but I have mine removed finally and it is working. I just do not remember the exact lines of code to remove.

One last thing. Backup your database before removing the shoutbox entries. If you make a mistake, you will not regret this step.

How would I make it so the shoutbox is automatically collapsed?

any news on the upgrade from the old shoutbox :o

what to do if i didn't ? i only did a backup of the database... :disappointed:

Sorry all,

This hack stopped about 30% of my visitors getting to my site due to an MSHTML.dll error in IE. I got rid of it any my site works fine now.

Can anyone tell me why this is happening whe they press the "refresh" text on the shout box?
