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
Templates:
Zachery Woods
- misc: Matthew Gordon
- Originally by TWTCommish, redone by Zachery for 1.04

djohn, do what Link told me to do... you have the same problem as I do...

Link, My PHP version is 4.3.8....... i renamed the file you told me to rename and it's working....... for the most part.... the last two pages of installation shows this:

Second to last page:

Code:

Yes, the files are there :P

Since this is an upgrade for me.... i guess this didn't hurt me much since i'm guessing the last two pages are just what to change in templates and the "Installation Completed" page.... I'm looking at the shoutbox and it's working

Edit: Oh, and I forgot to mention that I knew what needed to be done to change templates/files and stuff by looking at the readme.html.... (there wasn't much change of from the older version, of course)... so don't worry about that

Thanks for the help, Link

Don't see why the hell it doesn't work for some people. I'll look into the directory functions on the HIS I guess.

It's impossible to tell you what is wrong unless you also tell me what MySQL error follows.

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.3:

SELECT s.*, u.username AS absusername

WHERE (deleted='0' OR deleted IS NULL)
