Shoutbox Hack 1.04b · **Released**: 08-29-2004

11/09/04 - Version 1.04b. Just an installer upgrade, nothing more. Nothing to see here, move along.

10/22/04 - Version 1.04a released. This is not an upgrade from 1.04. If you already have 1.04 installed, don't worry about this. This release just updates the installer and fixes any errors in it. If you had problems installing it last time, this should work better. If you need support, posting it here may get it answered, though posting at the board at GeekyDesigns.com is prefered.

This is the same hack formerly released by Link14716.

08/30/04 4:19 PM EDT: Fixed a settings bug (I hope): see this post.

08/29/04: Shoutbox 1.04 is released, featuring a new installer system (using the Hack Installer System) and redone templates, as well as a few bug fixes. Enjoy.

Presenting: The Shoutbox Hack

Support posts made at GeekyDesigns.com have a higher priority than posts made in this thread, and is the prefered way of getting support.

There are way too many features to list, so I'll just let the screenshots do the talking.

- Originally by TWTCommish, redone by Zachery for 1.04

I uploaded all the files into my install folder in my root directory. The I uploaded the shoutbox.php into the root itself also. Installed the hack and seemed to go good. Have the shoutbox settings in admincp and saw the new templates were installed. I look at my forums and it does not appear. No shoutbox or change to anything at all. The shoutbox is enabled in the settings and all settings seem to be ok. Anybody have a clue why this is happening? Thanx in advance....

i just copied and pasted it into my ftp and it was fine, it put everything in the correct files then

laborer75 · #**574** 03-30-2005, 05:17 PM

Seems everything is installed to a tee and my shoutbox.php page works fine.

http://www.xxx-forums.net/forums/shoutbox.php

Can't understand why in the heck it wont show up on my main forums page. I'm pulling my hair out on this one...

Shouldn't it appear right under my navbar? :ermm:

Has to be a template not right?

Harder than heck to install, but, works great. All of my problems were fixed by reading through this thread.
