No support for portuguese language. Can you please make a Portuguese version? In the admin panel the options for the shoutbox also don't appear. But in English yes.

OK, now that you have the default skins working, its best if you ask this question over at the Oxygen thread http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=31438.0, as they can help more with that specific question (how do I put it in the left corner?)

Grudge is no longer with the SMF team per the first post in this thread http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=50176.0 ...

Not sure who is going to "take over" his mods....

Hello, I am a novice user with minimum resources at my site.

Here is a tip for people who want the functionality, but don't want the thing cluttering their site.

I didn't like the way this mod scrolled automatically.
It would be better if people could scroll themselves.

I also realized that the load time increased when I installed this.
Not much, but again, I'm really ******y about these things.

This is what I did.
I used the Redirection Mod. I called the forum "Shoutbox"
And I set the redirection address to the ShoutBox Archive.
So there's a page dedicated to shouting, instead of the shoutbox annoying everybody at the site.


This might help people who don't want the shoutbox slowing down the main pages. But still want the functionality.  :)

P.S. Can someone recommend a chat mod?
I'd like a chat where it's a part of my site. I don't have to subsribe elsewhere.
I chose SMF because you get your questions answered.

1) Install the Ultimate ShoutBox

2) Install the Redirection Mod

***If you need help installing the mods, reply.***

4) Create a forum. Call it "ShoutBox".
(Admin>"Manage Boards">New Forum)

5) Now go to this, newly created, forums modification page. (Admin>"Manage Boards">"ShoutBox">"Modify")

6) There'll be the new option: "URL to redirect user to"
(This was created by the Redirection Mod)

7) In that field, paste the link to the shoutbox arhive: http://yoursite.com/index.php?action=shout_archive

8) Done  :D . Now when anyone clicks on that forum, it will take them to a single shoutbox page. (Instead of having it on every page of the site).

thank you, do you have shoutbox working with 1.1? i can get it to load in that and can only get the shoutbox working with 1.5. If you got it working with 1.1 please let me know how you did it. I havent seen the redirection mod but will look for it. It be interesting if you could get that shoutbox page(forum) to open in a new window almost like a chat room :-)

Mysticalhead

This is the greatest thing that's happened to my site since Simplemachines itself.
(or maybe the Cerberus theme or maybe the Enhanced Quick Reply. Ha! this rules.)
Thanks!

Could it be the blood?
...maybe it's the blood you like.

Can anyone make a portuguese version please? :(

I think is 1.0.5. The version number is at the bottom, see http://astralqueen.hostdestroyer.com/index.php?theme=2

I have also tried install this mod with SMF 1.1RC1 but I found the shout.template.php file always empty. Do you also have the same problem?

Yes, I only run 1.05

So I don't know what you would do in SMF 1.1

However, maybe you can make the changes manually?

I have no idea what the differences are between 1.1 and 1.05...
But maybe if you manually perform the modifications, it'll work.

This article explains how you can do this:

sorry, i can't find the solution i need ;)

here how it's lay out on the site:

www.semenka.com/start2.php?seme=main

here's how i'd like it to look:

http://www.semenka.com/forum/index.php?action=shout_archive


here's what i added to start2.php:

<?php 
if (function_exists('smfshout'))
  
smfshout(); ?>



i'm really kinda lost...

Escobar

Sorry, but are you asking a general question about the mod....
Or are you asking about the tutorial I made a page back?

NO i finally go tit to work in 1.1 but the scroll on it is terrible, it jerks and moves and stops and moves again, something in the templates i suspect, until they finally update the templates we are at the mercy of waiting

Problem with install on 1.0.5

When I click Proceed to install the package, I get an error:

An Error Has Occurred!
2: fopen(/home2/expo3/public_html/bb/Packages/installed.list): failed to open stream: Permission denied
File: /home2/expo3/public_html/bb/Sources/Subs-Package.php
Line: 1476 


Then after I go back to my forum, I get this error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare smfshout() (previously declared in /home2/expo3/public_html/bb/Sources/Subs.php:1827) in /home2/expo3/public_html/bb/Sources/Subs.php on line 1834

I go back in and restore the old Subs.php and everything goes back to normal..  What's wrong?  I'm not that great with coding and whatnot.   I did have the shoutbox installed on my old yabb forum, but the smf, I'm having problems with.  Any help?

edi67

i reinsalled ultimate shoutbox in SMF 1.1 RC1 but calling the soutbox

Adding this:

';
if (function_exists('smfshout'))
  smfshout();
