[AJAX] vBShout v2.0 · **Released**: 07-27-2005

[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.

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

Awww! I see.. I used the one from vbhackers and have just read where the timestamp is no longer an option.. Bummer!

But, what would happen if I upgraded and used this one? Would it totally screw me up?

How so?

The one at vBHackers uses a flat file which does not pound the server load so hard. Other than that it's the same except with the timestamps which can be easily fixed by hard coding it into the shout templates.

I heard many bad rummers about it being hard on the 3.6.3 that many people switched back to the old version on it

I tried to install 2.1 over 2.0 and I keep getting this error when I try to upload the xml product.

Does it look familiar to anyone else? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! I'd like to just revert back to 2.0 until a later date since I have all of the hacks to integrate it throughout my site.

i think that you have to uninstall first v2.0 and then install v2.1
v2.1 has a new system and i believe this is the reason you got this.

Thank you for the reply!

After trying to install 2.1 over 2.0 it gave me this error and wouldn't install. So I uninstalled 2.0 and now I can't go backwards OR forwards without getting it.

The error says "MySQL Error : Table 'shout' already exists". Would somone know how I remove it?

are you sure that you uninstall it correctly?
if you uninstall, it is supposed to delete these tables
