Project Description

This is the latest version of Inferno vBShout LITE, the free version of our Inferno vBShout Pro product (see above link). Those who were running 1.0.1 Lite will find a lot of useful upgrades and additions, including aesthetic changes and many bug fixes and most importantly a huge decrease in server load and bandwidth consumption.

Additional Features

Auto-Idle
The auto-idle system will drastically lower server load on sites with many users on at the same time. It allows you to automatically set the user to "idle" in the shoutbox, meaning the shoutbox will load shouts once, then idle the user until the click the unidle button or make a shout. Afterwards they will idle as normal (as set in the ACP).

Shoutbox Advanced Optimised Protocol
The Shoutbox AOP is a brand new feature that when turned on will dramatically cut server resources/bandwidth used by the shoutbox. Instead of the shoutbox refreshing every X seconds to check if there is new data, it will know when there is new data and only refresh then, meaning when there is no activity in the shoutbox, no resources will be consumed, or bandwidth.

Shoutbox Low Level Logging
The shoutbox low level logging system will provide you with a log of shout edits, deletes, bans, unbans, notices and remove notice commands. This will help you keep track of commands being used in the shoutbox. This can be turned off.

Private Message System
When clicking a username in the shoutbox, it will now open a new "tab" (This is a shoutbox tab, not a browser tab). In this tab you will be able to privately chat to the member where only they and you will see the messages. This helps split private chats and the main chat, and you can have as many private chats open as you like!



vBSEO Issues?
If you're encountering issues with vBSEO this is most likely due to the option within vBSEO to "clean html", you do not need to turn this option off, but you will need to change the plugin for vBShout. Go to the Plugin Manager within your ACP, and find the plugin: "Inferno Shoutbox: Deploy Shoutbox". Edit this plugin, and where you see the option "Execution Order", set this to 1 and save, you should no longer encounter issues.


Note
I'll update screenshots soon! 5am here right now...

Enjoy!

Can anyone coment on server resources.

I previously had VBShout 2 installed on my site but was asked to remove it by my host as it hogged too many server resources (both database version and flat file version).

Would really like to add it again but don't want my host to boot me off the server.

Any advice, greatly appreciated

The IPB shoutbox displays an "I'm Back" button for idle users.. that would be a nice addition here.

Just an update for those wondering, the next release will patch up issues encountered:

Bugs Currently fixed for the next release:
XHTML 1.0 Transitional
User member profile links leading to null entries
Active shoutbox users fixed (invalid amount shown, duplicate entries shown)
URLs will be linked automatically, if you allow the option to use [url] bbcode within the shoutbox.
Enabled option to switch to an alternate shoutbox layout, curved elements will be removed at the cost for functionality. Only use this if you're having issues with your styles and the shoutbox display.
Drop thread linkage on reply/thread creation notices if link bbcode is enabled.
Use alternate methods to link to threads in reply/thread notices to visit thread without opening a new window.
Make thread links in thread/reply notices go to the last post within the thread.
An off switch for any thread/reply notices.
Thread titles with special characters messed up in thread/reply notces.
Special characters in different charsets.
Shoutbox notice now made slightly higher than other shouts to fit in better.
Fixed shoutbox deployment plugin (didn't follow path directives).
JS error when user was banned and system attempted to fetch new shouts.

Bugs pending for the next release:
vBSEO compatability (Pending on information to debug)

Page Deployment Issues
Obviously people with vBSEO and a custom portal system are having issues right now, I know the person with the portal system said changing the "THIS_SCRIPT" constant to something other than 'index' would cause issues, however all frontend scripts are meant to have unique names for the THIS_SCRIPT constant, so I'm afraid that's bad implementation on the portals end. That said, Im not sure how this messes up your portal page, it would load the shoutbox for deployment, but without the template edit for your portal, the shoutbox wouldn't actually show, so perhaps you could eloborate on that for me?

As for vBSEO, currently looking into this still, if anyone can contact me via PM or Yahoo messeger (
Code:
scot1ace@yahoo.com
) that can offer ACP/FTP access please do so this can get fixed up

When's PRO coming?
Sooner than you think

I'll reply once the Lite version has been updated with the bug fixes, thanks for everyones feedback on errors and general likeness
