MARK AS INSTALLED to get support and updates.

Looks good, will try.
thanks

Thank you...

Great very Nice :x

/me clicks Install

looks good, i like the new style. I will give it a try.

Very nice !! Thanks

I wanna use only chat box full or in a whole new template but the problem is its creating problems in Internet Explorer and going to Smilies :s
\\
infact not IE its just sometimes it goes to Smilies :s

Colour issue. Posting in color works fine until next chat message. Then color tags are displayed.

I like it and i'll install it. BUT, i've got a suggestion... could you make it more like a regular chat/shoutbox?
I mean, set the BBCode, smilies and text field above or below the messages, to give them more space, instead of taking almost half of their display...
Don't get me wrong, it's awesome, but it would be even better like that.

Wow, cyb is taking over! You've impressed me
5 Star rating

+1 i agree...

and if your taking suggestions it would be really awesome if we had more smile control. all shoutboxes really seem to lack that. maybee make it so it used its own smile folder instead of your forum smiles. or a option in admin cp like "path to smiles" so admins could choose if they wanted to use board smiles or create a extra folder for just shoutbox smiles. some of mine are rather big and look ok in forums but terrible in the shoutbox.

how this rate to other shoutboxes as far as server load? better, same, no idea? database? flatfile?

Tagging for future use. :)

Thank you

The problem is that if enable the guest to viewing chatbox, it don't show the new messages like vbshout if not refresh the forum homepage

EDIT: please make visible if you have, your PayPal address for donating, I am not rich but $5 not is a problem :)

You have good options and good ideas in this, I think this has good potential. nice work.

It seems good.
But can I show it in vBa CMPS?
Can you also change the message listing?(newest at the bottom)

Thus begins the long line of request for additional features, edits, etcetera....
Interesting share but I shall pass ;)

JAcquii.

[high]* projectego clicks install :)[/high]

Your MOD make me to belive ...
Installed ^^

nice. installed :)
btw how i can prune SB ?

Doesn't work with cmps.

look very nice

thank you soo much
this working

http://www.azadiyar.com/Forum/index.php

what are the advantages over the original shoutbox? Just curious, Cyb always puts out great mods....thank you for this!

Edit - can you add support for /me actions?

this better than inferno....u can't block certain user groups from posting.

I want my time to change and not be military time.

Works Perfect

The advantages are a lot, one is the cookie problem that the latest vbshout version have that don't show messages in the shoutbox after logout and for Guests, this have the data and hour, this in one click remove all message by the user you select, this ban and unban a user by simple click, this have a autoprune without installing prune script and set it from Cron Tasks, this have a complete box to show only window chat, this have a location set from script directive in the option, this show how many users are active in the chatbox in the real time, this have and have...

I Love anyway always Cybernetec and Paul M scripts!

got it 2 :(

And why you aren't happy?

Thanks for the explanation and kind words Massiello. :)

How can we set the refresh option? It seems to refresh every 10 seconds. The "Seconds to show new messages stats" didn't seem to have anything to do with it.

Great Mod Cyb, I love your works.

I do have a problem though:

I do not see the admin options when I am logged in (Super Admin, and the only admin). I am completely unable to admin this mod when active.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled, to no avail. None of the admin options are available to me.

It would appear that the "can_moderate()" isn't recognizing me (Super Admin) or any other Super Moderator

This doesn't auto refresh? I want to add it to my threads also..so when people go into certain topics..they still can see the shout box. Where would I put it at?

I see now..i want to add it on my forum display area..where would I add it?

thanx,this is more better than I have using now.

what are the commands for admins and staff for this mod?

mrbdy, if u go into your vboptions and go down to whatever this one is called. u will see an option that say something about where it will show (default is index) make it blank and it will show on all pages.....

and i was wondering how i would go about editing it so links actually show and are clickable, cause it seems to add a space in the link and making it non clickable

i have a problem with this. when i post , the post doesn't appear unless i refresh page. but after i refreshed the paged i'm not logged in anymore:(
