[AJAX] vBShout v2.0

[high]Staff Edit/Update[/high]

I have released an updated version of this hack (version 2.0.1), this version fixes some security issues with this hack. All version prior to this one allow users to insert html in their shouts, this can cause problems with them using html that breaks the site layout or malicious javascript. Download the new zip file (vBshout_fixed.zip) and upload the new vbshout.php file to patch/upgrade. If you want to manual instructions they are in the zip file, in the file bugfixes.txt

Second Staff update

I've uploaded a new version of this hack, dubbed '2.0.2'. This one should fix the html injection issues without breaking special characters. To upgrade, download the new zip file and upload the new vbshout.php file.

Please note that this only fixes the html injection issues. I do not use this hack on my own forum (although I've tested this on a client's board) so I will not be fixing the server load issues. I suggest you do not install this hack if you can't deal with the extra server load, as it's rather intensive.

Well, been a while since I've been to vb.org and released anything, thought i'd break the trend and whip up something quick while I have a little spare time.

Ok see your Pm..

No, when someone is actually viewing the homepage, because the shoutbox is on the homepage when you click a users profile on the action it says they're viewing the shoutbox instead of the homepage, I really don't know how to fix this! lol

[rogersnm]

yes, so when they are typing in the shoutbox. Just edit the WOL plguin.

Yes I am having the same problem. How do I fix this bug or at least is there a way to get rid of it or disable this function?

[charlub]

but they're not typing in the shoutbox, it's just because it's on the homepage it says they're viewing shoutbox instead of homepage, they are not even touching the shoutbox.
