Shoutbox Hack 1.04b

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.

Hahaha...nice.

Also, these options in the AdminCP have no selection buttons for me...

Hierarchy Mode?
If you set this to option #1, then users <b>can</b> edit other users with the same hierarchy rank (default). If you set it to option #2, then users <b>can not</b> edit users with the same hierarchy rank.

Show an Input Box/Textarea on Forumhome?
With this option, you can show a textarea or an input box on forumhome allowing users to shout without going to into the shoutbox first.

Does this work with FireFox and Opera?

If you set this to option #1, then users <b>can</b> edit other users with the same hierarchy rank (default). If you set it to option #2, then users <b>can not</b> edit users with the same hierarchy rank.
Show an Input Box/Textarea on Forumhome?

Parse error: parse error in /www/htdocs/bbs/includes/adminfunctions_options.php(96) : eval()'d code on line 1

at the top of the page and then the two selections:

Hierarchy Mode?

Yeah, I also have those parse errors coming up.

(The actual box works in Firefox for me...)
