BVShoutbox 1.0 · **Released**: 01-02-2004

Features:

Displays vBCodes and other post code allowances. (Depending on what the use is allowed in their signatures [for now])
Admins can edit or delete shouts from the Admin CP.
Built-in /me code.
Archive page and IFrame on forumhome for shouting and reading.
Archive page has multiple pages.
Stats on archive page.

I plan to have added the following by the time vB 3.0.0 is released:

Uses phrases for the Admin CP and shoutbox.
Users can edit and delete their own shouts.
User and usergroup permissions for the shoutbox. (canview, canshout etc)
Seperate options for vBCodes in the shoutbox, instead of the same ones as for signatures.
More options in the Admin CP. (mass delete, mass edit etc)

This has been tested on vB3 Gamma and RC 1

A demo can be seen here:

My members are telling me that Opera crashes when posting in the shoutbox. Any ideas or similar problems?

The board that i'm going to install this hack on is running vb2 rc4. When i tried to execute the install file it told me it was not intended for the version i'm running. I did not proceed. My question is i see others have installed this hack on vb3. Should i continue and if so what should i look for as far as problems etc.

thanks

Can somebody PLEASE tell me how to stop the body's back ground image from being placed inside the shoutbox?!?!? Ive looked at the templates 100 times, but couldnt see anything. In vb2 I knew the variable for the body, but with VB3 im lost!! Just got done making a style, and the backgroound just ruins it.

there is a security issue with this shoutbox. People can post shouts logged in or not.
One of the admins on my site, Sauron, found this:

HTML Code:

<html><title>Shoutbox Flaw</title>
<!-- This little flaw allows anyone to post information to the shoutbox -->
<!-- from anywhere on the Web, whether they are registered users or not -->
<!-- [Sauron] -->
<body>
<!-- The markup is copied directly from vBulletin -->
<p>Enter what you want to send to the shoutbox:</p>
<form action="http://www.yoursite.com/forum/shoutbox.php" method="post" name="vbform">
<input type="hidden" name="do" value="doaddnew" />
<table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
<tr><td width="70%" align="left">
<input type="text" name="message" value="" class="bginput" style="width:80%;" />
<input type="submit" value="Shout" class="button" />
</td>
</form>
</body></html>

put that in an html page and you can shout. make sure you change the url on it.

small problem... this no longer exists in vb3.0.3:

Quote:

"Find this:
// ####################################

// ***
if (can_administer('canadminthreads'))
{
$printhr = true;
construct_nav_option($vbphrase['subscription_manager'], 'subscriptions.php?do=modify', '|');
construct_nav_option($vbphrase['add_new_subscription'], 'subscriptions.php?do=add');
construct_nav_group($vbphrase['subscriptions'], '<hr />');
}

// ####################################"

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
