nneonneo's Shoutbox

[nneonneo]

Of course it is

First, you should effectively uninstall the mod from Themes/default/index.template.php, to make sure it is clean (there's some header-specific stuff there) -- remove the four code blocks between // YSHOUT HERE and // YSHOUT END.

Next, follow the "other theme" installation instructions on the main mod page.
If you are using 1.13, you are recommended to make this change:

Code Select Expand

<style type="text/css">
#yshout {
font-size: 10px;
}
#yshout p {
margin: 0 0 0; /* Top Bottom Linespacing */
}
.shout-invalid {
background: #FFFDD1;
}
#yshout fieldset {
border: none;
}
#yshout em {
font-style: normal;
}
#yshout p {
line-height: 1;
margin-top: 0;
}
#yshout {
overflow: hidden;
}
#yshout .shout-timestamp {
font-weight: normal;
color: #000;
}
#yshout .adminlink {
font-size: 6pt;
color: #141414;
}
#forum-name, #shout-text, #shout-button {
font-size: 9px;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#yshout #forum-name {
color: #666666;
width: 70px;
margin-right: 5px;
}
#yshout #shout-text {
color: #000000;
width: 310px;
margin-right: 5px;
}
#yshout #shout-button {
width: 55px;
}
</style>';
to

Code Select Expand

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="', $settings['theme_url'], '/yshout-style.css" />';
so that the yshout-style.css file still works.


The location in the theme where you should put the div is right above

Code Select Expand

// Show the "Powered by" and "Valid" logos, as well as the copyright. Remember, the copyright must be somewhere!

Now, you can also opt to put the shoutbox in a info-center-esque block, by using

Code Select Expand

// YSHOUT HERE
echo '<br />
<div class="tborder" style="margin-top: 0;' , $context['browser']['needs_size_fix'] && !$context['browser']['is_ie6'] ? 'width: 100%;' : '', '">
<div class="catbg" style="padding: 6px; vertical-align: middle; text-align: center; ">',$txt['yshout_loading'],'</div>
<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="5" class="bordercolor" style="margin-top: 1px;">
<tr><td class="windowbg2"><div id="yshout">',$txt['yshout_loading'],'<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div></td></tr></table>
</div>';
// YSHOUT END
instead of the supplied <div> code.

Did that all make sense? If you need any more assistance, feel free to ask

Thanks a lot, when i'm ready i'll come back here
It will take some time cause i need to translate the mod to Bulgarian language 1st.

@nneonneo

Hey thanks for the reply, but mines still giving me problemz

Heres a ss

[nneonneo]

Did you uninstall it? I can't get to http://aesl-gaming.com/forums/yshout/yshout.php; in fact, none of the JavaScript are loaded or available.

[syndicate]

I used that package installer, and it showed this, then i put in the stuff that you wrote into the index.template file in the theme that i use.
(btw i am VERY noobie when it comes to this, that is my first mod that i tried to install aswell.)

[nneonneo]

Huh? Did you hit "Apply mod"?

[Jimi_Hendrix]

Hi nneonneo,

I noticed that in the "Forum Error Log" there are many errors:

8: Undefined index: path that i resolved here

And now I just another error:

"8: Undefined variable: boardurl"

Thanks for your support

1. First, you should effectively uninstall the mod from Themes/default/index.template.php, to make sure it is clean (there's some header-specific stuff there) -- remove the four code blocks between // YSHOUT HERE and // YSHOUT END.
  - If i remove all the mod code from index.template.php where shall i put it?
  - Are you talking about those four code blocks?:

- shall i edit yshout-style.css or the code in index.template.php?

Could you be so nice, when you have time please attach modified index.template.php, so i can understand better - i have been playing for 3 hours but i probably do something wrong.

Thanks a lot!

[nneonneo]

@ivpn: I can't get those errors. The path error should be fixed as of 1.12, unless I did something wrong.

@ivo2296: Find the line "// YSHOUT HERE". There are four of them in index.template.php. Delete everything from // YSHOUT HERE to the matching // YSHOUT END line. One will have some script tags and some CSS. Another will be a short JS snippet. The last two will have a single echo statement with a "div".
Then, you install the mod "to another theme" as per the instructions on the main mod page.
Finally, ONLY if you have 1.13, make the change detailed in index.template.php.

[ivo2296]

Thanks,
One more thing - with Firefox all chat text hides in 5-6 seconds and i have to do refresh again to see it for another 5-6sec, in IE the chat text doesn't hide. What should be the right behavior?

[nneonneo]

Huh. Sounds like you need to set $updateTimeout (yshout/yshout.php) lower, probably to about 4 seconds.

Recommendations?

and other....

[CmptrWz]

Looks like in various places $boardurl is referenced, but not included in the global statement for the functions in question.

[nneonneo]

My script is using global $boardurl, so I don't know what is causing it. It might still be my fault, but I cannot reproduce it (nor can I locate any of my code on line 72, of any files I've modified )

[CmptrWz]

It appears to be in eval'ed code.

I think you can jam a disableTemplateEval variable into modsettings or something like that to get it to stop doing the eval, so you get the actual error message.

[ivo2296]

I have no errors but i try to set bigger font px using yshout-style.css but nothing changes

[ivo2296]

That will be best shoutbox if nneonneo try to add some basic BBC menu to it in the next version

[Nibogo]

So what does it say? 500? Nothing to do?

appear Nothing to do.

What i can do???

[nneonneo]

@ivo2296: BBC support is there. I am not going to add a BBC menu, since I think it simply clutters the interface. No need for more buttons and complexity than is necessary.
As for CSS, the two spots to watch are Themes/<theme>/yshout-style.css and inline CSS in index.template.php. yshout/yshout-style.css is only for history.

@NIBOGO: If it says Nothing to do, then by all means it should be working. Try version 1.12 or 1.13.

[AHMER]

ok mine is working now
