BVShoutbox 1.0

Features:

• Displays vBCodes and other post code allowances. (Depending on what the use is allowed in their signatures [for now])
• Admins can edit or 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.

I plan to have added the following by the time vB 3.0.0 is released:

• Uses phrases for the Admin CP and shoutbox.
• Users can edit and delete their own shouts.
• User and usergroup permissions for the shoutbox. (canview, canshout etc)
• Seperate options for vBCodes in the shoutbox, instead of the same ones as for signatures.
• More options in the Admin CP. (mass delete, mass edit etc)

This has been tested on vB3 Gamma and RC 1

A demo can be seen here:

Replace your shoutbox.php file with the one attached to fix the problem.

I've updated the zip file so there shouldn't be any problems with the users online in the future.

Is there a way to remove the Bottom scroll ?

where's the bottom scroll?

For the two people that are having problems, what vB version are you using?

It wasn't updating the location for me with that new file. But I have redone it and it should work this time.

Would like to remove the bottom Scroll bar and the close Shoutbox works until you go back to the page.

All is good just some odd things we would love to know how to clean up

yes i to notice the collapse buttom dose not work after going to other pages and coming back to that page, so i took it out but would like it back

For the bottom scroll, try changing the table width in the shoutbox_main template to 98%.

I'm still working on the location thing...
I know it's the shoutbox IFrame, so I might have to take that out and change it so it's part of the forum homepage.

Tried the change to 98% still bars..

same here

@ Lord Les if you go to the shoutbox_iframe
and find

PHP Code:

 src="shoutbox.php?$session[sessionurl]do=main" scrolling="auto" 


and turn scrolling to no insted of auto, it turns the bars off
looks better but i would like the one bar on the side as well

[thuffner]

Yeah the 98% thing fits all the text on the frame perfectly, but does not get rid of the scrollbar...

Great hack.

[monstergamer]

i had the answer along

in shoutbox_iframe

find

PHP Code:

 <frame name="shoutview" id="chat" src="shoutbox.php?$session[sessionurl]do=main" scrolling="auto" marginwidth="5" marginheight="5" noresize="noresize" frameborder="0"> 


and replace with

PHP Code:

 <frame name="shoutview" id="chat" src="shoutbox.php?$session[sessionurl]do=main" scrolling="yes" marginwidth="5" marginheight="5" noresize="noresize" frameborder="0"> 


worked for me
now the only thing i see needing fixed is the Unknown Location thing
