Hi.

I installed Ajax Chat 0.8.3 on my forum with vbulletin 3.8.4 and its running perfect but before I used Cyb Chatbox as shoutbox on my forumhome just below de navbar and I liked that a lot.

The readme file of ajax chat says

Shoutbox:
=========

AJAX Chat is also usable as shoutbox - this is a short guide on how to set it up:


1. Shoutbox stylesheet
----------------------

Add the following line to the stylesheet (CSS) of all pages displaying the shoutbox:

@import url("http://example.org/path/to/chat/css/shoutbox.css");

Replace http://example.org/path/to/chat/ with the URL to the chat.
Modify css/shoutbox.css to your liking.


2. Shoutbox function
--------------------

Add the following function to your PHP code:

<?php
function getShoutBoxContent() {
// URL to the chat directory:
if(!defined('AJAX_CHAT_URL')) {
define('AJAX_CHAT_URL', './chat/');
}

// Path to the chat directory:
if(!defined('AJAX_CHAT_PATH')) {
define('AJAX_CHAT_PATH', realpath(dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']).'/chat').'/');
}

// Validate the path to the chat:
if(@is_file(AJAX_CHAT_PATH.'lib/classes.php')) {

// Include Class libraries:
require_once(AJAX_CHAT_PATH.'lib/classes.php');

// Initialize the shoutbox:
$ajaxChat = new CustomAJAXChatShoutBox();

// Parse and return the shoutbox template content:
return $ajaxChat->getShoutBoxContent();
}

return null;
}
?>

Make sure AJAX_CHAT_URL and AJAX_CHAT_PATH point to the chat directory.


2. Shoutbox output
------------------

Display the shoutbox content using the shoutbox function:

<div style="width:200px;"><?php echo getShoutBoxContent(); ?></div>

But to be honest I have no clue which files to change with above instructions. So my question is: does anybody know in which files I should paste step one, the stylesheet, in which file and where I should put the function and where exactly to put the output string?

I've searched a lot in many forums but didn't find the solution untill now.

Thanks a lot for your help!!
