Permissions include: Silencing users, banning users, editing user shouts, Creating/Editing "Sticky Notices", Pruning shouts and much more. Resource Optimisation: vBShout implements an Advanced Optimisation Protocol to save your forum resources. Enabling this will further reduce the amount of resources consumed by the shoutbox. AOP was originally featured in Inferno vBShout, and DBTech vBShout takes it to the next level by ensuring that all your chats are always up-to-date without taking up needless amount of resources. Customisable New Post / Thread Notifications: Allows you to make the shoutbox post when a new thread is created, or a new post is made. You can make this happen with all threads (Which will take user permissions into account) or only threads/posts from certain forums. Shoutbox Tabs: New PM's or User Chat Rooms create Tabs. Tabs will highlight to let you know something new has happened, and you can even set them to make sounds to alert you. Active Users Shout-bit: Shows the users active in the tab/instance you are, with the option to view everyone who can enter/exit the room at will (and thus see any shouts posted) in a pop-up to save resources. Perfect for seeing what's going on and who's around at a glance. Context Menus: Many places now make use of context menus ? less having to remember /commands, one click access to the most useful and commonly used functions, and the ability for users to access their shoutbox settings directly from the shoutbox itself. Custom Chat Rooms: Your users can now set up their own Chat-Tabs, where they get to set who can come and chat. Perfect for clubs, guilds etc. Admins can also create permanent Chat rooms for specific usergroups etc. ? perfect for a staff only chat room for instance, or to reward loyal members! Custom Shoutbox Instances: Ever wanted a separate shoutbox just for your admin forum? Got a part of your board only for VIP members? Now you can set a shoutbox specific to those areas. Shoutbox Sounds: You asked for it, we delivered. Customisable sounds now available on receiving shouts, Invites, PM's and more. (Requires QuickTime Plugin) Archive: View all the shouts posted since the last pruning, Also shows you the top X shouters, a variety of interesting and useful shoutbox statistics, and allows you to search previous shouts. Logging: Worried about staff members pruning the shoutbox to cover their tracks? Don't worry, with our advanced logging options, you can make sure a hard copy is kept of every action taken. Revamped Thread / Reply Notices: Do you have a massive board with 100+ forums? With the revamped New Thread / Reply Notices page, you can edit exactly what forums show what notices in what instance all from one page. Downloadable Shoutbox Archives: You and your shoutbox admins can download a complete dump of the Shoutbox' archive for all instances. With 3 supported formats (tab-delimited CSV, XML and TXT), there's something for everyone whether your purpose is review or programming. Easy Shoutbox Notice Editing: You and usergroups with the "Can Set Sticky" permission can now edit the notice by double-clicking the Sticky in the shoutbox. Quickly fix typos or rapidly update with new turn of events, editing it is never more than two clicks away. Shoutbox Report System: Members can now report offensive shouts by using the shout context menu. When a report has been submitted, those with the "Can Moderate Chat" permission will see how many reports need their attention via a new chat tab in the Shoutbox. Easy User Infractions: The context menu also adds a quick link to infract users, for those who can access vBulletin's infraction system. This lets you quickly punish members who are overstepping your bounds. Blog Integration: Give blogs a more prominent place on your forum by having the Shoutbox post notifications when someone posts a new blog or comments on a blog. Professional Only benefits: Personal User Shoutbox Options: Integrated with User CP, User gets to decide which things show on their shoutbox, PM's, notifications etc. Even what editor options show up for them. They also get to decide where their text input area goes for TOTAL customisation. Ignore List: Allows users to keep track of who they are ignoring, and control this option via a list. Custom Commands: Lets you and your users create their own commands for use. For example, create pre-set warning comments ? Staff member types /firstwarning, Text appears saying "This is your first warning for breaking the shoutbox rules. You can view these rules at [link] If you have a question about this warning, please PM myself. Thanks. Extra Tab Options: The ability to set separate tabs for system notifications and notices is available in the PRO version, fantastic for keeping your chat tab uncluttered.

vBShout v6.0.5:
Fix: Work-around for the "broken characters" some people were experiencing after upgrading to vBShout 6.x Change: Changed the content type for the data sent back to the server to application/json - this should also mean less confusing error messages. Fillip

Fillip u need to read your PM asap
my site just got hacked because of a vulnerability in the db-tech shout and they will probably be targeting other vb forums now. I also can no longer log into the db website through facebook. Edit: I realised u released a security fix. But i have to RENEW MY LISECNESE and pay double just to get it fixed? I can only download the old version, which has the securty expoit which caused my site to be hacked Is there something im missing because this is clearly wrong.

The fix has been on vb.org since the vulnerability was made public. https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/show...-Addon-vBShout http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/f77/v...831/#post39342 You should ALWAYS try to keep your mods up to date for this reason. Iain

well its only been 2 days. im not angry at all about that, its my responsibility to keep up to date with thats going on.
What im angry about is u providing a faulty product which has damaged my server. and even after that not providing a fix and asking me to PAY for it. for instance vbulletin ALWAYS provides security fixes if their product was faulty to begin with. This is the most absolute basic expectation and i cant believe ure going to make me pay an addiitonal $44.95 instead of providing the fix for the security flaw, after it caused my server to be hacked. Vbulletin - products will still be eligible for patches for known Security Vulnerabilities until it is determined that there is insufficient usage Anyway we just compared the lite version 6.0.3 and 6.0.4 to find the difference and we had already addressed it, it was a simple fix which is why this is so remarkable because it is pretty irresponsible to have such a security flaw (AND A SIMPLE ONE) only be fixed for the present version... you should at least give instructions for what is broken for everyone else

That is the same situation for us - the vast majority of our users are able to access the latest version, and those who aren't are spread over so many versions it would be impossible to update them all. It is standard practice to require users to stay up to date with updates for software to receive updates and fixes, including security fixes. This goes for the majority of software, especially for small companies such as ours. We have put the fix we added in the news thread for the security issue for the few users in the same situation as you, but please note we obviously cannot guarantee that fix will work on older versions and you continue to use them at your own risk. No software is ever completely secure or bug-free, you should be aware that by deliberately running out of date software you will always be running that risk, just like people still running version 3.0 or 3.5 of vBulletin for instance. You can see an example of vBulletins policy here: https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/show...ing-quot-patch You will notice they did not update vB 4.0.1, 4.0.2, 4.0.3 etc, only the latest versions of the 4.X and 3.X series. This is despite the vulnerability being in all versions of vBulletin 3.X and 4.X Iain

I just upgraded to the latest version, and I have a problem now. Every few seconds, when my browser is on the page with the shoutbox, it lags for a moment, bogging down anything I'm doing in the browser. Something in the update apparently isn't well optimized, or is causing a lot more of a load on my browser (IE9) than the older version of this shoutbox. (5.4.7, I think? something like that)
Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

If you have the IE7 Compatibility Header turned on in vBulletin Options, try turning that off

Although there's still a bit of lag when the shoutbox updates on IE9. Enough to disrupt scrolling or choosing from a dropdown menu. Any other ideas of what can be done to optimize it further? Any other vB settings that could be causing it on just IE?
