vB Shoutbox 1.0 · **Released**: 05-15-2002

Well, people wanted it, so here it is: a vB-integrated Shoutbox. It's a little different than the one they used to have on this site, however. The moderation functions are VERY basic...but they'll be improved for 2.0, most likely, if there's any interest.

A short breakdown:

It's a chatroom-esque page that everyone can use.
Shouts that day, shouts in last 24 hours, shouts by YOU, and total shouts, are all tracked.
Leaderboard (top shouters) is tracked.
Clickable smilies automatically added below the add shout box.
"delete" link shown on all shouts if you're an admin or a moderator (usergroupids 5, 6, and 7 by default).
bbCode parsing included.

Attached is an archive containing all the files you'll need for the basic installation, AND for the optional features. NOTE: the vBHacker compatible file included within does NOT constitute a full installation. You'll still need to upload the shoutbox.php file to your main forums directory.

Enjoy. Here's a live demo: http://www.movieforums.net/shoutbox.php

Hey TWTCommish, might I point your attention to THIS thread to get permission for NTLDR to incorporate your hack into the Vbindex one?

Working a treat on 2.2.7, thanks again Chris.

This hack looks awesome.
I installed the hack..Installation went fine, but when i go to the URL: www.yourfourms.com/forums/shoutbox.php
Under "The Shoutbox " it says "Sorry, no matching Shoutbox items found."

And when I try to "shout now", I get a 404/page cannot be found.

I know some others had this problem so I also tried to replace

PHP Code:


			
header("Location: $PHP_SELF?s=$sessionhash[sessionid]");

with:

PHP Code:


			
header("Location: shoutbox.php?s=$sessionhash[sessionid]");

But still no luck

Any ideas? Thanks.

The form is posting to shoutbox.php in your root folder rather than $bburl/shoutbox.php... There's a fix for this in this thread.

Vile · #**256** 09-04-2002, 09:16 PM

*EDIT

Fixed it

THanks.

I just modified this great Hack to work with the Smilie-Sort order, removed the last Hard-Coded Text and added a Settings-Group to the vBulletin Options where you can set the Number of Smilies, Shouts per Page and Leaders to be shown.
This are only some little modifications, but if you are interested i will post them.
I am working on some Scripts to work with Boxes into vBPortal. Did some of you did this before?

PHiXTiT · #**260** 09-10-2002, 06:05 AM

Sure would be nice.
Do post.
No objection to posting on my behalf!

Finaly decided to install this hack. Installation worked great. But I have a big problem. When I want to post a shout, or delete a shout it always wants to download shoubox.php. What do I have to do?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
