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.

OK, have had the shout box installed on my forum VB 3.0.3 for sometime now. I'm running 1.04 according to the php shout box file.

everything has worked out great, only issue I have had since the beginning is not being able to delete/edit shouts. I have all options checked in the control panel to allow mods and admins to delete/edit yet I still cant do it.

I have attached the shoutbox.php file that I am currently using and if anyone can take a look through it and see if something isnt right or that I need to change some codes, please advise.

well, this shoutbox doesn't work for me ... and I can't uninstall because that script says that no install is detected. Is there a sql code I could excute to delete settings, phrases, and the templates from the hack? Basically, uninstall everything from the hack. Thanks

Okay I have a weird problem, the line indicated in the link to the picture below, is supposed to display the text 'Shoutbox - Latest Shout', however it doesn't, why?

Are you able to select to Uninstall it & also Overwrite together?

[Otikeu]

Well, it gets to the point of which it says something like "No intallation found" message ... really, if you know a MySQL command to uninstall phrases, settings, and templates, that woiuld be great, thank you.

I upgraded to vb 3.0.8, not showing up, I'm assuming not compatible?

You will probably have to redo your file/templates edits
