[AJAX] vBShout v2.0

[high]Staff Edit/Update[/high]

I have released an updated version of this hack (version 2.0.1), this version fixes some security issues with this hack. All version prior to this one allow users to insert html in their shouts, this can cause problems with them using html that breaks the site layout or malicious javascript. Download the new zip file (vBshout_fixed.zip) and upload the new vbshout.php file to patch/upgrade. If you want to manual instructions they are in the zip file, in the file bugfixes.txt

Second Staff update

I've uploaded a new version of this hack, dubbed '2.0.2'. This one should fix the html injection issues without breaking special characters. To upgrade, download the new zip file and upload the new vbshout.php file.

Please note that this only fixes the html injection issues. I do not use this hack on my own forum (although I've tested this on a client's board) so I will not be fixing the server load issues. I suggest you do not install this hack if you can't deal with the extra server load, as it's rather intensive.

[high]End staff edit[/high]

Well, been a while since I've been to vb.org and released anything, thought i'd break the trend and whip up something quick while I have a little spare time.

A shoutbox as you would assume, a very simple one to start off with, but does include AJAX Technology, which pushes the shoutbox 1 step closer to live, messages from other people will appear with no refreshing, and so will yours that you post

I hadnt tried that hack myself as its not something i want, but the code looks to be sound from what i can see - are you sure you did it exactly as it said ?

Step 1 is important
1) Change the hook location for 'vBShout [Template Alteration]' to: forumdisplay_complete


and in Step 2 basically you change the code to this :

 
$Used    = 0;
$UsedArr = array();
$smilies = $db->query_read("
		SELECT smilieid, smilietext, smiliepath, smilie.title,
		imagecategory.title AS category
		FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "smilie AS smilie
		LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "imagecategory AS imagecategory USING(imagecategoryid)
		ORDER BY imagecategory.displayorder, smilie.displayorder
	");
$Smilie_Build  = '';
$Total_Smilies = $db->num_rows($smilies);

if ($Total_Smilies > 0)
{
	while ($emo = $db->fetch_array($smilies))
	{
		if ($vbulletin->options['shout_smilies_show'] > 0)
		{ 
			$Smilie_Cache[] = $emo;
		}
		else
		{
			$Smilie_Build .= '<a href="#" onclick="return sb_Smilie(\''.$emo['smilietext'].'\')"><img src="'.$emo['smiliepath'].'" alt="'.$emo['title'].'" border="0" /></a> ';
		}
	}

	if ($vbulletin->options['shout_smilies_show'] > $Total_Smilies)
	{
		$vbulletin->options['shout_smilies_show'] = $Total_Smilies;
	}

	if ($vbulletin->options['shout_smilies_show'] > 0)
	{
		while ($Used < $vbulletin->options['shout_smilies_show'])
		{
			$GetEmo = $Total_Smilies;
			$GetEmo = rand(0, $GetEmo);

			if (!in_array($GetEmo, $UsedArr) && $Smilie_Cache[$GetEmo])
			{
				$Used++;
				$GetEmo = $Smilie_Cache[$GetEmo];
				$Smilie_Build .= '<a href="#" onclick="return sb_Smilie(\''.$GetEmo['smilietext'].'\')"><img src="'.$GetEmo['smiliepath'].'" alt="'.$GetEmo['title'].'" border="0" /></a> ';
			}
		}
	}
}
else
{
	$Smilie_Build = 'No Emoticons Available';
}

$Options_DropDown         = array(); // Items included will be parsed to create drop down menus
$DropDowns                = array(); // Completed constructed drop down menus

$Options_DropDown['font_selector']    = array('Default', 'Arial', 'Arial Black', 'Arial Narrow', 'Book Antiqua', 'Century Gothic', 'Comic Sans MS', 'Courier New', 'Fixedsys', 'Franklin Gothic Medium', 'Garamond', 'Georgia', 'Impact', 'Lucida Console', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Microsoft Sans Serif', 'Palatino Linotype', 'System', 'Tahoma', 'Times New Roman', 'Trebuchet MS', 'Verdana');

$hex   = array();
$hex[] = '0';
$hex[] = '3';
$hex[] = '6';
$hex[] = '9';
$hex[] = 'C';
$hex[] = 'F';

for ($a = 0; $a < 6; $a++)
{
	for ($b = 0; $b < 6; $b++)
	{
		for ($c = 0; $c < 6; $c++)
		{
			$Options_DropDown['color_selector'][] = '#' . $hex[$a].$hex[$a].$hex[$b].$hex[$b].$hex[$c].$hex[$c];
		}
	}
}

if (is_array($Options_DropDown))
{
	foreach ($Options_DropDown as $Menu => $Options)
	{
		$DropDowns[$Menu] = '';
		if (is_array($Options))
		{
			foreach ($Options as $Selection)

				{
					$Text = (($Menu == 'color_selector') ? 'Color' : 'Font Face') . ' [Default]';
				}
				else
				{
					$Text = $Selection;
				}

				$DropDowns[$Menu] .= '<option value="'.$Selection.'"'.$Extra.'>'.$Text.'</option>' . "\n";
			}
		}
	}
}

function isBanned($user)
{
	return (isBanned_Check($user['userid'], 'shout_banned_users') || isBanned_Check($user['usergroupid'], 'shout_banned_usergroups'));	
}

function isBanned_Check($bash, $against)
{
	global $vbulletin;
	return in_array($bash, iif($vbulletin->options[$against], explode(',', $vbulletin->options[$against]), array()));
}

if ($vbulletin->options['shout_banned_perms'] == 2 && isBanned($vbulletin->userinfo))
{
	$Shoutox = '';
}
else
{
	eval('$Shoutbox = "' . fetch_template('forumhome_vbshout') . '";');
}




if ($forumid ==1)
{
$vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMDISPLAY'] = str_replace('$navbar', '$navbar' . ' $Shoutbox', $vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMDISPLAY']);
}

I changed the forumid to 1 on my forums and it works well when i clicked on Main Forum - but it wont work if you dont change the hook location ... well done to lierduh for that edit !

This isnt my hack and im only helping a few people out if i can - to have both the parsed version and the wordwrap would take too much of my time to figure out as i would have to go through all the code , and since i dont need this for myself , i wont be doing that.

[danb00]

well the shoutbox wont display on my forums and i cant find perms in usergroup perms manager....

edit template forumhome_vbshout_archive_shout

find:

				<if condition="$bbuserinfo[userid] == $Shout[s_by] OR can_moderate()">
					<span style='float:right'>
						[<a href='#' onclick='return Shout.Edit({$Shout['sid']})'>Edit</a> | <a href='#' onclick='return Shout.Delete({$Shout['sid']})'>Delete</a>]
					</span>
				</if>

Replace with:

				<if condition="$bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 5 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 6">
					<span style='float:right'>
						[<a href='#' onclick='return Shout.Edit({$Shout['sid']})'>Edit</a> | <a href='#' onclick='return Shout.Delete({$Shout['sid']})'>Delete</a>]
					</span>
				</if>

thats for Super Mods and Admins to edit shouts
