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.

Wait, I just thought about this, unintsall it and clear your cookies, make sure you have a backup of the site and sql. then reinstall it again...give that a try!

Ok, Does Anyone Plan On Making This Shout Box Work Or Not!. If Not Then This Thread Should Be Locked! By Leaving It Open, You Are Simply Teasing Those Who Want To Use It And No One (not Even Support) Will Change It To Work With 3.0.7. It Is Very Apprearent That Alot Of People Are Having Problems With This One. It Was Working Fine For Me, Then I Upgraded And There It Went Into Left Field!......

I want to me my shout box to that top of the page how can I move it?

[Neosoul]

I have one question about the mod, how can I ut it on the top instead of the bottom because I tried to get the code from the install but it doesnt come up.

Posting for Later Use. Gotta show to myth.

Ok, since there is no more support for this maybe someone can recode this one to work with vB....Im using it now and works like a charm!!!

Its lts a link from vPortal to another link!

If you want to see that its working, check out my site:
www.bodybuildingcentral.net

Its very generic! But it works, and I can have it both on my portal page and main page and they both update at the same time!!!!

How about just a link to the box?

I don't want to register on another site just for a link.
