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.

Shoutbox credits

PHP Code:
Matthew Gordon

I had the original error some of the above had,I've redownloaded the new zip but now it will not install,the problem I have is the uninstall is not working so I cannot install the new version

It states theres no record of it being installed so it cannot be uninstalled,yet I still have shoutbox options in admincp and all the templates are there.....nightmare!

Warning: halt(./includes/functions_log_error.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/wiiija/public_html/wij/phobia/forum/includes/db_mysql.php on line 389

What was the MySQL error under the PHP error you posted?

Wij · #51 08-31-2004, 11:07 AM

Hi,

Invalid SQL: ALTER TABLE language ADD `phrasegroup_shoutbox` MEDIUMTEXT NOT NULL
mysql error: Duplicate column name 'phrasegroup_shoutbox'

I've jsut been taking a look at the usergroup settings and theres a table with 10 options yes/no but no text in this area whatsoever.I'm starting to think I may have made a glaring mistake now(tho I'm pretty sure I havent its fairly straightforward)so any help is appreciated.
