PERFECT!!! TYTY This is a great hack and been ok, but had 2 problems.

First was getting blank/white pages when reading pm's. I uninstalled it all, and re-installed it. Now it seems to work ok with pms, but when i go to read a pm, I get this

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /includes/functions.php(1219) : eval()'d code on line 5


ONLY when I red a pm. This message is at the very top of the forum page, and it happens on all skins. I am on vb vers 3.6.5

[jessej]

now i locked out of the admincp all together. argh!! this is a lot of probs. how can i get back into the admincp? just getting a white screen and a message at top says;

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /includes/functions.php(1219) : eval()'d code on line 5

---------------
UPDATE:
went into the server, found the plugin table, modified it, and now back in. damn thats NOT fun at all. along the way i hosed a few other hacks (in the test forum only), but got em back now.

But,
still the hack for the shoutbox is ok, its the hack to install it on all pages thats hosing my stuff. and not when i do it manually, only when i import the xml file. ..

[blindman4556]

on one of my skins, when your in internet explorer. and you type something in, it says error on page on that little bar on bottom of window. then it will open up a new window (/forums/vbshout.php?) any suggestions

the site is http://www.likenota.com/forums/ and its the default skin that does it, none of the rest

[blindman4556]

my ass

[GekkoPixie]

This doesn't work on 3.6.8.

[kellyandmark04]

just installed the XML file and overwrote my previous version and it works great except for one prob

im running vb 3.6.7

it shows on all pages everything works correctly but when i open a private message i see this at the top of the screen

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /includes/functions.php(1243) : eval()'d code on line 5

can anyone help me resolve this issue thanks

[skepticality]

Damn,

Well the box is on all my pages, but it only sits there 'loading' and never comes up at all!

Anyone have a fix for that issue?

[FreshFroot]

best way to get rid of errors is to use the new shoutbox.. though it has less features I know it works on all and any pages you want it too...

[mitomcua]

FreshFroot,
Which version are you using that has the feature on all pages?

[imports]

how come mine just say loading....and it's not working
