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"

Nope. They use some other then normal way to get the navbar.

I don't know what's going on. It still isn't working for me. I uninstalled the product 3 times. And then reinstalled and followed these steps. I have uploaded all the forum files 2 times.

After I make the coding changes, the Shoutbox does not appear at all on any pages. I am running 3.6.4 and a skin based on 3.6.2

It doesn't work with some custom styles...that's the reason I don't use it.

I used some of this code, and other part I messed with somehow got it to work.
