vBShout on all pages!

vBShout on all pages!

Works for vBShout version 2.0

This hack will make vBShout show on all pages of your side. BUT, will only alow the shoutbox to be placed under the navbar.

1) Install vBShout (Download here)

2) Edit plugin "vBShout [Template Alteration]" and make the following changes:

a) Change the Hook Location to "global_start"

b) Find and delete:

PHP Code:

function isBanned($user)
{
    return (isBanned_Check($user['userid'], 'shout_banned_users') || isBanned_Check($user['usergroupid'], 'shout_banned_usergroups'));    
}

function isBanned_Check($bash, $against)
{
    global $vbulletin;
    return in_array($bash, iif($vbulletin->options[$against], explode(',', $vbulletin->options[$against]), array()));
} 


c) Find:

PHP Code:

$vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME'] = str_replace($Position, $Position . ' $Shoutbox', $vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME']); 


and replace with:

PHP Code:

$Position = '<!-- / nav buttons bar -->';
$vbulletin->templatecache['navbar'] = str_replace($Position, $Position . '<br /> $Shoutbox', $vbulletin->templatecache['navbar']); 


3) Edit plugin "vBShout [Template Cache]" and make the following change:

Find:

PHP Code:

if (THIS_SCRIPT == "index") 


Replace with:

PHP Code:

if (VB_AREA == "Forum") 


There is the same info in the zip.


Done. Make sure you clicked "install"

Works nicely... www.limmac.org

I just want to change it's formatting though. I use a left side nav menu on all pages and I want the width of the shoutbox to be what it was before the hack, same width as the forum, rather then same width as the navbar. Also, I have some custom built pages using vBAdvanced, and it doesn't show on those 3 pages for some reason?

Anyone has any clue how to circumvate the whole who's online stuff? I got a shoutbox on all my pages and I just don't want the who's online to show anything, except what the user is watching (which thread/forum/page etc...)

I just totally don't want it to show "watching shoutbox", or change the text into something else... no, just purely the original way vbulletin works

Anybody any idea how I could make that work?

There where only solutions stating how to change the name of what is shown online, and there is only shown that you should not put it on all pages cause if you do, you will always have that who's online problem, so that's not really a solution. Or do you know otherwise, cause if im wrong and ur right, I would like to know and i'll try and read those 100's and posts again

You have to make sure the line that gets replaced is in the nav bar template.
