nneonneo's Shoutbox

[allart]

@allart
Did it work perfect before changing hosts? Have you installed any other mods since changing hosts that may be conflicting with it?

Yes, and it still works perfectly on explorer and chrome. The only thing it's installed too is evilsentinel, a tool to prevent hacking, but it was installed too on the other host. The board is still up on the other host, here are the addresses:

new host: hxxp:www.latanadeigoblin.tk/ [nonactive]
old host: hxxp:www.latanadeigoblin.helloweb.eu/ [nonactive]

how is it possible?

I just installed (and uninstalled) two separate mods and each one conflicted with the shoutbox. The SB would disappear after a few seconds. I searched through the code to see of there was a common denominator and there was! In both cases, the mods had added buttons to the menu. Also, in both cases, the $txt['mod_text'] wasn't added properly. And in both cases, when I hardcoded the button names into the Subs.php, the shoutbox was restored! I purposely added an "X" to the end of various $txt strings and uploaded the Subs.php only to find that the shoutbox had disappeared again. And again, by fixing the $txt strings or hardcoding the button labels, the shoutbox was restored. This may account for several people having the same error:

The shoutbox appears, then quickly disappears.....

I have only tested this in SMF 2, but it may be something for you to investigate.

Hey Folks

Is there any easy way to remove or condense the date and time display on the shouts?

i.e. instead of "[Today at 06:30:59 PM]"  maybe just have "[Today at 06.30PM]" or "[Today 06.30PM]" or even just "[Today]"

I have the shoutbox limited to about 500 width on my forum, so i'm looking for ways to condense the initial stuff down.

Any ideas?

Thanks

@Appendix
What version of SMF and what version of Shoutbox are you using?

@blakey
Are you using a custom theme?
Also, what version of SMF and what version of Shoutbox are you using?

@juniorj23
So your problem is solved?

@allart and @Nequil
I'm afraid that will have to be answered by nneonneo.

@zach21uk
The time format is located at the very bottom of the settings.php in your yshout folder.

Using 1.17 SMF
Trying to install Shoutbox:


Install Actions
Installations actions for "nneonneo's AJAX ShoutBox":
The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF.

Are you trying to install the latest version of the shoutbox (1.22)?

NOTE: The shoutbox version has nothing to do with the SMF version (in other words, SB_1.17 is not specific to SMF 1.1.7).

[Foreverpurple]

Crap I downloaded the one at the top of the list instead of the bottom...sheesh....

My forum has been dormant for a year and now it's going again and I've forgotten all I've learned!!  Sorry!

I just counted them and there are 25 versions of nneonneo's shoutbox (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=585). 

Just make sure you select SB1.22 for the regular shoutbox or AdvSB1.22 for the advanced shoutbox. Install it using SMF's package manager. If you are using a custom theme, you'll need to read Installation to Other Themes on the very first page. If you encounter any further problems installing this shoutbox, post back here with details of your error and we'll be glad to help you.

EDIT: I just read your last post. No problem.

[Foreverpurple]

It's installed but I'm not using the default theme.  I know I have to edit a page for my theme.  When I tried to read the support forum for the shoutbox I couldn't find the English version so I don't know where to find the steps on how to insert the code and where.\


nevermind that was the OTHER shoutbox I looked at.... good grief I should go to bed LOL

[zach21uk]

Hey Folks,

Another little one thats been bugging me for ages.   the "/me" command in the shoutbox is always red and I havent seen anything to change it.

Any ideas where I can update this?

Thanks
Zach

It's in your style.css under .meaction{......}. You can change color, size, style, etc inside that class.

You are quite welcome. Glad I could help.

[scenerip2k]

I get error message at the top that says "Shout Box

Sorry, you must be logged in to use the shoutbox!"
I am logged in and it still shows that

[scenerip2k]

seems like everyone is having problems with this mod

If you only have three people with errors but there are only three people with the mod installed, then that would be 100% failure rate. You see a lot of "questions" in here first because this is where they are supposed to be asked, and, because there is a large number of people installing the mod. I will be more than happy (as will nneonneo) to help you get it installed properly on your site.

What version of SMF and what version of the shoutbox?
