BVShoutbox FULLL

Features:

• Displays vBCodes and other post code allowances.
• Admins can edit & 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.
• Uses phrases for the Admin CP and shoutbox.
• Users can edit and delete their own shouts.
• Usergroup & Administrator permissions.
• Find shouts by specific users (in the admin cp)
• Seperate options for vBCodes allowances and what to display

If there's any features anyone wants added, I'll try and add them. I think I added everything people asked for in the previous version, apart from the upgrader, which will be added to the ZIP file when i've setup another test forum and added the previous version to it

There shouldn't be any problems, because I've tested the installer three times.
And I haven't had any problems with the actual shoutbox, or shout manager.

I'll attach some screenshots of all the custom scripts, if anyone asks for screenshots of the add ons for the permissions and stuff ill take them, dunno why anyone would want them tho...

This has only been tested on vB 3.0.0 GOLD

To uninstall, you need to

Delete the following files
shoutbox.php = forum root directory
shout.php = admincp directory
shout_install.php = admincp directory

Execute these three MySQL commands

ALTER TABLE language drop phrasegroup_shoutbox
ALTER TABLE language drop phrasegroup_shoutmanager
ALTER TABLE usergroup drop shoutboxpermissions

Remove the "shout" table" in your database.

Remove everything in your database referring to the word "shoutbox". (They are pretty much in the "phrase, phrasetype & template" tables.

Remove all the shoutbox templates and phrases. Youc an do this in the database with the above step or do them one at a time in the vb ACP.

Modify you FORUMHOME template and remove the shoutbox code. It is easily identifiable. It begins right after the line that says "$navbar" and ends when you see the <!--/shoutbox code.

Don't forget to revert your php files to the last backup (you did make a backup prior to installing this hack, didn't you?)

Sorry I cannot be more specific but I have mine removed finally and it is working. I just do not remember the exact lines of code to remove.

One last thing. Backup your database before removing the shoutbox entries. If you make a mistake, you will not regret this step.

How would I make it so the shoutbox is automatically collapsed?
