-Step 2
--Import product-gcbos in your acp (admin control pannel).

-Step 3
--Populate the user group permissions in the acp under Usergroups->Usergroup Manager->{your_group}->GCBOS

-Step 4
--Open the acp once again for GCBOS to display you need to add two template hooks first open headinclude and scroll to the bottom.
--Add "{vb:raw template_hook.headinclude}" (without the quotes to the end of the template save the template. Next open FORUMHOME
--and search for "<!-- /main -->" (without the quotes and add "{vb:raw template_hook.gcbos_display}" above (without the quotes)
--gcbos can be displayed on any page with this hook in ("{vb:raw template_hook.gcbos_display}").

The product no longer displays like that, that information is outdated, hence the new information and because i thought i would be nice and release a update for christmas i didnt have time to do a proper readme.

Can some one having the issues with commands try this product file, if i get a reports of this working i will update the main product later, the reasons commands died was to do with the fix's i made for PHP 5.3

hello and thank you very much its working now

To those who have the Loading... error, try uninstalling the vB4 Supercharged plugin. I think it's conflicting with this plugin.

guys, i had the same loading error, it was because of the Members who have Visited mod. i disabled it, then shoutbox loaded.... just a heads up

[MyChemicalSelf]

Install:
-Upload the contents of the upload folder to your webserver
-Import product-gcbos.xml in your admincp
-Set usergroup permissions under Usergroups->Usergroup Manager->{your_group}->GCBOS in the acp
-Insert <!-- {SHOUTBOX} --> into the template you want it to display GCBOS in (EG FORUMHOME, FORUMDISPLAY). In FORUMHOME i would suggest placing GCBOS above "<!-- / main ->" or at the bottom of the navbar template to display GCBOS globally.

Im not sure how this could conflict with other products the way the template is rendered now it literally using a str_replace on the <!-- {SHOUTBOX} --> and </head> tags to prevent this happening

Yeah to my knowledge these errors are fixed i shall test them some time tomorrow or later today

[Charlie98902]

Okay it is showing on my end but no text enters the box when I type something and hit submit. I can type something and hit submit but it just doesn't show anything from there? Am I missing something here?
