Shoutbox Hack 1.04b

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.

You must have edited your hack_install.php (there should never be a reason to do that), because on that line it read 'print_cp_header'.

Hi,

I've been using the shoutbox without problems for the last few months, but all of a sudden it has started to delete messages everyday. It deletes all messages and starts all over every day.
Haven't changed any files, settings or altered the database.

Any ideas?

[Kalomax]

Sorry, i have no time to read 42 pages.

I have installed successfull it on vb 3.0.7
Then, i want to ask, how to edit or delete someone 's shout ?

If anyone can help me with this problem I would be most pleased. Excuse me for taking up your time though

error in Admin CP

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I installed this hack and the actual shoutbox works great, only problem is in the admin CP under shoutbox settings. Most of the settings show up but I get these 2 Errors at the top:

(1) Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home3/check123/public_html/newforum/includes/adminfunctions_options.php(96) : eval()'d code on line 1
If you set this to option #1, then users can edit other users with the same hierarchy rank (default). If you set it to option #2, then users can not edit users with the same hierarchy rank.
Show an Input Box/Textarea on Forumhome?

(2) Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home3/check123/public_html/newforum/includes/adminfunctions_options.php(96) : eval()'d code on line 1

Any ideas on how to fix it?

Hello,
Has anyone tried installing a second shoutbox on the same site?
My users have requested a separate shoubox for the arcade page.
Before I start looking into the installation code, I wanted to know if anyone has tried this.

(Hopefully, this question has not been asked before. I did a search -honest!)

Any info most appreciated.
Thanks, AmpSul
