Shoutbox Hack 1.04b · **Released**: 08-29-2004

11/09/04 - Version 1.04b. Just an installer upgrade, nothing more. Nothing to see here, move along.

10/22/04 - Version 1.04a released. This is not an upgrade from 1.04. If you already have 1.04 installed, don't worry about this. This release just updates the installer and fixes any errors in it. If you had problems installing it last time, this should work better. If you need support, posting it here may get it answered, though posting at the board at GeekyDesigns.com is prefered.

This is the same hack formerly released by Link14716.

08/30/04 4:19 PM EDT: Fixed a settings bug (I hope): see this post.

08/29/04: Shoutbox 1.04 is released, featuring a new installer system (using the Hack Installer System) and redone templates, as well as a few bug fixes. Enjoy.

Presenting: The Shoutbox Hack

Support posts made at GeekyDesigns.com have a higher priority than posts made in this thread, and is the prefered way of getting support.

There are way too many features to list, so I'll just let the screenshots do the talking.

Hi,

I just installed this on a fresh installation of 3.0.7 and it works perfectly. Ran through the installer with no problems. Just remember to make the edits to your php files once the installer is done.

Directions of what to edit in what file can be found on a link on the last page of the installer process.

All done and working with no issues!

Instaling this hack I got this DB error:

Line 405 in the db_mysql.php says:

But the file functions_log_error.php is in the includes folder.

Any ideas?

Are you using php 5? This hack wouldn't install on php 5.0.4. Those are the same errors I got. It does run on php 5 just won't install. I had to downgrade to php 4.3.10 to get it installed. Once installed I switched back to 5.0.4 and the hack works fine with vb 3.0.7.

The Realist · #**598** 04-12-2005, 05:21 PM

Running php 4.3.11 strange indeed?

Marco van Herwaarden · #**599** 04-12-2005, 06:35 PM

Remove the DEFAULT '0' from the auto increment column.

This is going to sound dull now!

In your install/hacks/Shoutbox_Hack/14/queries.php file:

And replace by:
