BVShoutbox FULLL

Features:

• Displays vBCodes and other post code allowances.
• Admins can edit & delete shouts from the Admin CP.
• Built-in /me code.
• Archive page and IFrame on forumhome for shouting and reading.
• Archive page has multiple pages.
• Stats on archive page.
• Uses phrases for the Admin CP and shoutbox.
• Users can edit and delete their own shouts.
• Usergroup & Administrator permissions.
• Find shouts by specific users (in the admin cp)
• Seperate options for vBCodes allowances and what to display

If there's any features anyone wants added, I'll try and add them. I think I added everything people asked for in the previous version, apart from the upgrader, which will be added to the ZIP file when i've setup another test forum and added the previous version to it

There shouldn't be any problems, because I've tested the installer three times.
And I haven't had any problems with the actual shoutbox, or shout manager.

I'll attach some screenshots of all the custom scripts, if anyone asks for screenshots of the add ons for the permissions and stuff ill take them, dunno why anyone would want them tho...

This has only been tested on vB 3.0.0 GOLD

Is there a quick easy way to change the background colour of the shoutbox where the shouts appear, and where refresh/archive is linked? I've tried fiddling with the some of the code, but no joy as of yet..

I only ask because it seems to let in the background of the skin I'm using, as it transparent, and the background is quite dark, so can't see the text..

Any help would be appreciated

TTG, You have been the saving grace of this entire hack.

I like many others have sat here for HOURS (seems like a day and a half) trying to get this hack to work. I was beginning to think VB.org should start a thread called, Hacks to Avoid.

Suggestions before you install this hack or any hack.
BACK UP YOUR DATABASE.

'cause there's always the option to drop a the whole thing and put its replacement on there.

This particular hack has caused me SOOOO many hours of drama its ridiculous. But somehow, miraculously I got it to work. (i read 13 pages of this thread last night and the other 12 this morning), something caught my eye, and now it works.

after so many previous problems with it though, i still have my trusty backup on standby.

ready to use it need be.

Thanks again TTG

Awww shucks .. ya'll have me blushin' just been lucky with the dozen installations I've made for folks !?

If anyone has this installed on 3.0.X and is thinking of upgrading to 3.0.8 .. the templates will need reinstalling and as the install file doesn't provide the option of simply reinstalling templates, I've attached 'em for ya.

If you have problems readin' them, use wordpad.

Hi, just wanted to let everyone know, that if you read what TTG says in his posts, you will be fine.

I have 3.0.8 and i have installed it fine.

i wont lie, i had my problems, spent my time looking throgh here thinking what is the damn problem, thinking i should just uninstall this piece of crap, but i kept trying, and in the end, it paid off, because its now fully working

you can view it here http://www.gamerzneeds.net/forums - 3.0.8 WORKS

Ok, I just got 3.0.8. Do I just install this then do what TTG said HERE? Is there anything else I need to do. Sorry, but I didn't feel like going through all 25 pages...

Also, this is my first vB, can someone tell me how to roll back my database just in case something does go wrong?

If you run the installer and follow the instructions during the install .. all should be fine.

[AllenSam]

Alright, but don't I have to do the steps that you added, or did someone update the installer?

Those steps are in the installer ... problem is, folks were assuming they were done by the installer and you need to manually make the file edits.
