You can't see mods settings or chatbox itself?
The mod is quite outdated now, and won't work with newer php versions (7.3 or so), so it may be better to use different chat/shoutbox mod (there's few available on mods site).

offtopic but aren't you using tinyportal? pretty sure it has a built in shoutbox

I couldn't see the box.

I think way back I had tinyportal but didn't use it.  My forum was sitting 'in a box on the shelf' for almost a year before the group decided they needed it.

Like I said the mod is not built to work with newer version of PHP, 7.3 included, so that would be what is causing the problem most likely. I would suggest moving to alternative, for example:
https://custom.simplemachines.org/index.php?mod=2534
https://custom.simplemachines.org/index.php?mod=1295

yeah, took it off. 

looking at tiny portal, but holy crap that's a lot of feature for what I need.

hahahaha yeah tp has a lot to it and when I first installed it thought I wouldn't really use it much, but over time as I've learned more about it I've found it extremely useful...still learning my way around it and what all I can do with it. Originally installed it just for a login/user panel but over time I've found so many other helpful uses for it esp the articles part and playing with custom codes to display in blocks on the sides and footer of sites :)
but gonna shush as I'm off topic in this thread, but you can install tp and just not use anything else other than the shoutbox if you so choose.

How does the articles work?  I mean, what actual content goes inside those?  format?

I was only looking for a long (left margined) shoutbox to satisfy the ADHD users, but a spot for articles could be nice.

Does TP show on mobile devices?  that's a lot of compromising on a small screen.

That's really a questions for a mods support topic for TP, not this one.
