What this hack does : Adds a box on top of your vB home page
where all members can chat/shout in an IRC like way, with all the
vB options added (smilies, vBcodes....)

I started this hack by modifying the shoutbox made by Doug
Tanner for phpnuke (i think).. And it went far far from his original
code. As far as i think he wouldn't recognize it .

I integrated it as far as i could with vB, and in the admin CP,
with every bit of it being possible to modify trough the admin
CP (prune, ban, censure...)...

SCREENSHOT

This hack has been tested and used by some people out
there in france .

1.2.4 changes :
Install problems with the mysql reserved words solved,
Uninstalling option added to the install script,
Possibility to automaticaly add the templates to the
templatesets you chose in the install script,
IE6 problem with divs solved,
timezoneoffset mod integrated,
text input limited to 255 characters.

1.2.3 changes :
security hole on the pruning of the admin part fixed.

1.2.2 changes :
templatesused var filled with all templates used by the
script in the shoutbox.php file and in the index.php file.
And chmod 777 made on the admin/shoutbox_config.php file
by the install script. Thanks to erwin

Name changed from shoutbox to chatbox, because some people
thought of this hack as related with TWT-commish's shoutbox...
no more excuses


Here is some sort of [high]FAQ[/high] from all the thread,
hope this helps, and prevents you from reading all that i just read :

[high]#----------------------------------------------------------#[/high]
Erwin : limit of smilies a person can post in the shoutbox.
This is to prevent smilie spamming : HERE
[high]#----------------------------------------------------------#[/high]
Erwin : Another tip for installers - instead of manually having to
ban users in the shoutbox, to automatically ban users who
you have already banned from the forums : HERE
[high]#----------------------------------------------------------#[/high]
For the shoutbox to be in a popup : HERE
[high]#----------------------------------------------------------#[/high]
To have 5 'shouts/chats' visible when the chatbox is reduced :
HERE
[high]#----------------------------------------------------------#[/high]
SpeedStreet : This simply creates a link for people to click on so
that they can easily view the 'Who's Online' page without
having to dig for it : HERE
[high]#----------------------------------------------------------#[/high]
ThoughtDiver: if you want the date format on the shout timestamps
to read Month/Day instead of Day/Month : HERE
[high]#----------------------------------------------------------#[/high]

Ok I really hate to bring this up again but I still haven't got an answer to my question:

Quote:
OK I can't create the field "replace" in the "shoutbox_swears" table. The MySQL Database tells me "replace is a reserved word that can't be used for database-, table-, or fieldnames."
If anybody could please help me!!

First, the hack works great and my members love it.

I have two final questions:

1. how can I make the shoutbox available to unregistered guests?

2. are the posts saved in the database, and if they are, where? Because I'd like to be able to clear them.

That's it.

Thanks again for all your help.

Thank you havefun (I like your nick btw).

One last question (I hope).

This doesn't work in NE. Clicking on shoutbox takes me to an index.html page.

Is there a way to fix that?

There is this little bug.

Members who log and first check the shoutbox find their "view new posts" turns up blank.

Any fixes for this?

Also, I never did get an answer to my question about making shoutbox available for guests to post. Is there a security issue involved?

Thanks.

This doesn't happen to me. View New Posts should not be affected since the chatbox code doesn't affect it at all.

As for guests posting, that's dangerous - anyone can just anonymous post swear words and abuse. Not a wise thing to enable.

Erwin. This is what happens. If people check the shoutbox first when they logon and then the "view new threads," there is nothing, but if they check the "vnt" first, then no problem. Also, if they leave the shoutbox open when they logout, no new posts appear when they log back on. WHen they close it, no problem. Clearly, this suggests there is a connection to the shoutbox. If you don't have the problem, then it would mean that I screwd up the code somewhere, but I wouldn't know how to find my error. I followed the instructions meticulously and have rechecked several times... so....
