how do i increase the height for this?

Blapto · #34 06-05-2006, 02:27 PM

Change

Code:

<div id="vbshout" style="overflow:auto;height:46px;width:100%;">
Don't Wait For Me To Load... Get Playing!
</div>

to

Code:

<div id="vbshout" style="overflow:auto;height:100px;width:100%;">
Don't Wait For Me To Load... Get Playing!
</div>

In order to increase the height.

RFViet · #35 06-05-2006, 02:30 PM

I have vbshout on every page. I don't know whether this can make a difference !!

thx for that..

and thx for the mod, works great

Pete C · #37 06-23-2006, 09:14 PM

Excellent hack - many thanks. Works just fine, but as RFViet said above . . will it work with the vB Shout on all Pages hack?

I'd really like to install them both . . . or at least find a way to get the shoutbox on threadview & threaddisplay as well as forumhome.

Clicks *Install* for this one . . it's up and running

Any advice on the other would be appreciated.

Blown Beauty · #38 08-07-2006, 11:40 AM

Thanks for the great hack!

Question: The Shoutbox must be re-collapsed each page change/refresh, which can be very annoying. Is there a simple solution to this?

Side note: Once collapsed in the Arcade, it remains collapsed throughout the website - it's just not doing so in the arcade.

Thanks in advance!

TheBlackPoet · #39 08-08-2006, 04:46 AM

i appreciate the hard work... now my nosey members who want to play games + post/read poetry + chat can do it all........

installed with joy!!

midirtrider · #40 08-12-2006, 02:30 PM

didnt work for me.. I modded the templates and nothing???

StuntFactoryX · #41 08-14-2006, 10:04 PM

i know this hack wasnt intended for it... but what if i did the same thing in my cmps template... edit the vbshout php paths in the code.. anychance it will work? ive been searching for a vbshout that will go all the way across my navbar. and not a module.
