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.

Good question.

How do we uninstall the hack? Even if we delete it we still have the shout manager/etc in admincp.

Nevermind, I got it working...

jokerz · #**866** 10-25-2005, 09:12 AM

I unistalled this and didn't like because iframe is the only problem that the shoutbox message doesn't show, no word text button, no category title of shoutbox name.

Enable debug mode. In you AdminCP, goto vBoptions, Shoutbox Settings and click the delete link.

Turn off Debug mode.
