I was helping someone install this and we get the same error as sabert00the gets. .

I'll be working on this hack today and throughout my spring break, sorry for the delay. I am not sure if I'll be able to get WYSIWYG to work again or not - it took me 5 beta releases to get it the first time, and I still don't know why it didn't work until then.

Glad to see you're back and didn't forget about this hack

[Elrum]

I did a clean install of the latest version via HTL on VB 3.0 Gold. There were no error messages and the shoutbox is displayed properly on my page, but there seem to be some phrases missing:

- Could not find phrase 'shoutbox_1000_blankshout'.
- Could not find phrase 'shoutbox_1000_dupeshout'.

In the control panel there's no headline for "Shoutbox" and option settings are displayed without a left column. (plz look at attached screenshot)

Any hints?

[Scrub]

Search for the phrase shoutbox_global_shoutbox and change it to shoutbox. If I remember correctly, this will fix your problem.

Hi. I was wondering if there was a way to set the default editor for the shout different than what people choose for threads. That way there isnt so many problems with it. Also, can the smilies show in a box like TWTCommish's version without selecting for the smilie box in the threads?

Important:
How about security?
Could a hacker run a script via the shoutbox?

There is a problem with hte non htl part in the phrases.sql file

There are duplicate inserts and it is screwing up the query when i t is ran.

That file needs to be fixed.

[BigJohnson]

For the people having some trouble with there INSERTING of queries for settings on NON HTL here is the mistake.

These lines should be like this

INSERT INTO setting (varname, grouptitle, value, defaultvalue, optioncode, displayorder, advanced, volatile) VALUES ('shoutbox_hierarchymode', 'shoutbox', '1', '1', '<span class=\"smallfont\" style=\"white-space:nowrap\"> <label for=\"hierarchy1\"><input type=\"radio\" name=\"setting[$settingid]\" id=\"hierarchy1\" value=\"1\" tabindex=\"1\"" . iif($setting[\'value\'] == 1, \' checked="checked"\') . " />#1</label><br /> <label for=\\"hierarchy2\\"><input type=\\"radio\\" name=\\"setting[$settingid]\\" id=\\"hierarchy2\\" value=\\"2\\" tabindex=\\"2\\"" . iif($setting[\'value\'] == 2, \' checked="checked"\') . " />#2</label><br /> </span>', '23', '0', '0');

INSERT INTO setting (varname, grouptitle, value, defaultvalue, optioncode, displayorder, advanced, volatile) VALUES ('shoutbox_shoutonforumhome', 'shoutbox', 'input', 'Input', '<span class=\"smallfont\" style=\"white-space:nowrap\"> <label for=\"sofh1\"><input type=\"radio\" name=\"setting[$settingid]\" id=\"sofh1\" value=\"none\" tabindex=\"1\"" . iif($setting[\'value\'] == none, \' checked="checked"\') . " />None</label><br /> <label for=\\"sofh2\\"><input type=\\"radio\\" name=\\"setting[$settingid]\\" id=\\"sofh2\\" value=\\"input\\" tabindex=\\"2\\"" . iif($setting[\'value\'] == input, \' checked="checked"\') . " />Input Box</label><br /> <label for=\\"sofh3\\"><input type=\\"radio\\" name=\\"setting[$settingid]\\" id=\\"sofh3\\" value=\\"textarea\\" tabindex=\\"3\\"" . iif($setting[\'value\'] == textarea, \' checked="checked"\') . " />Textarea</label><br /> </span>', '24', '0', '0');

I installed this Hack via HTL. So far it`s working but I also have the same error. There is nothing written @ the optionscreen if you try to set parameters in the admin cp.
I also translated the phrases but they still do not show up.

So I have the very same problem like ELRUM
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...&stc=1&thumb=1

Please help!

[Elrum]

@ Cyb0rg: I found a workaround, but this can't be a real solution. Run the sql queries manually from the non htl folder after htl install, ignore the errors.

Attention: There's a missing ' in shoutbox.sql.

Search for:
DELETE FROM phrase WHERE varname LIKE %shoutbox%';

Replace it with:
DELETE FROM phrase WHERE varname LIKE '%shoutbox%';

Can this shoutbox be displayed on a page other than the forumhome display? (IE, the main page of my site)? In other words, can it be called from a standard HTML page?

[Cyb0rg]

Thank you. I will try this.

[Cyb0rg]

Thanks Elrum, that worked. Now I can read the general options for the Shoutbox but I still have the same like before at the usergroup options.

I just see Yes/No there but no text on the usergroup shoutbox option.
Any hints ?

[filth]

ive downloaded and ran the latest version of the file but when i click on it the link looks like the following:-

http://promotingmusic.co.uk/subdomai.../shoutbox.php?

when the new page opens I get :-

Your usergroup(s) do not have permission to use the shoutbox

yet the account is an administrator and the usergroup has got permissions (checked myself) have I done something wrong ?
