Hi,

It looks as if I will have uninstll this hack! Are the steps bitg mentions all the steps you have to take to uninstall? I am very wary about going into my database deleting items, if I delete everything else will it matter that these are still in the database? I plan to install a different shoutbox, am I going to get a problem by leaving the previous shout table there?

Thanks

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.
