nneonneo's Shoutbox

[picos]

@picos: not sure, have you tried the suggestions posted before? If you are using a new soundmanager, you might need to remove "soundmanager2.swf" from index.template.php

I'm using the latest version of your shoutbox and the latest version of the 2.0 beta (4)... there is a soundmanager2,swf file in the directory.  Do I have to activate the sound at all or add an mp3?  Sorry, I 've looked through the thread as much as I can and searched... there was nothing specific to the latest beta.

@Sandmansa: Post index.template.php, or, if you've done that already, link to the post.

@dwd2000: If you want to put the shoutbox in Arcade.template.php there is no need to wrap it with extra code. In that case, you simply remove the shoutbox code from index.template.php (the block containing "shoutbox();" only) and add shoutbox(); to Arcade.template.php where you want it. It will then only show on Arcade-invoked pages.

@picos: Try removing "soundmanager2.swf" from index.template.php (should be part of "/yshout/soundmanager2.swf" or something like that).

@machmanx: I suppose the best way is to invert mute and unmute, like so:

In yshout/js/yshout.js, change

Code Select Expand

&& get_cookie("shoutSound") == "true"
to

Code Select Expand

&& !get_cookie("shoutMute")

In yshout.php, change

Code Select Expand

      if(!isset($_COOKIE['shoutSound'])) {
            echo '&nbsp;<a href="javascript:delete_cookie(\'shoutSound\');set_cookie(\'shoutSound\',\'true\',3600*24);delete_cookie(\'yShout_open\');loadChat();">Use Sound</a>';
      } else {
            echo '&nbsp;<a href="javascript:delete_cookie(\'shoutSound\');delete_cookie(\'yShout_open\');loadChat();">No Sound</a>';
      }
to

Code Select Expand

      if(isset($_COOKIE['shoutMute'])) {
            echo '&nbsp;<a href="javascript:delete_cookie(\'shoutMute\');delete_cookie(\'yShout_open\');loadChat();">Use Sound</a>';
      } else {
            echo '&nbsp;<a href="javascript:delete_cookie(\'shoutMute\');set_cookie(\'shoutMute\',\'true\',3600*24);delete_cookie(\'yShout_open\');loadChat();">No Sound</a>';
      }

Well, this does make "Sound on" default, but unfortunately, the functions have been switched.  This means that when you click on "Use Sound", you get NO SOUND, and when you click on "No Sound" you get SOUND.  So, how to fix this?  Tried playing around with the .js file by changing ShoutMute back to ShoutSound, but that didn't help.  Also tried changing .js to original setting, but that cause SOUND on both settings.  So, what should I do, nneonneo?

BTW, after this is fixed, I will make my files available for anyone to download for SMF 2.0 beta 4.  Sounds good, nneonneo?

Hello,
Congratulations and many thanks for the mod which is the most succesful part of my site. I use Nneonneo's Ajax Shoutbox 1.09 and my forum is SMF 1.1.3. I am very satisfied with that.

The only thing that I wish to add is the option "Return" for users, as it is for moderators and admins. Sorry if it is answered before, but I searched, but couldn't find it. I want to add it because sometimes it doesn't refresh due to server problems.

Thank you!

any help?

[picos]

I'm not entirely sure what you meant by taking the swf out but the things I did try didn't work...

I deleted the swf which didn't help and I took out the script from the index file in the yshout folder. 

[nneonneo]

@panetolikos6: In yshout/yshout.php, change

Code Select Expand

echo '&nbsp;<a href="javascript:autoShout(\'/return\');">',$txt['yshout_return'],'</a>';
}
to

Code Select Expand

}
echo '&nbsp;<a href="javascript:autoShout(\'/return\');">',$txt['yshout_return'],'</a>';

@picos: Try this: add "&debug=1" or ";debug=1" to the end of the forum URL. SoundManager2 should output some debugging information to the very bottom of the page. Post that.

@machmanx: First try shift+refresh, and if that doesn't work, just switch "Use Sound" and "No Sound" in yshout/yshout.php

Hey I'm using Advanced AJAX Shoutbox atm, thanks to Sunking of course for helping me make it work with SMF 2.0 Beta 4.

I am wondering how do we move the shoutbox ? I can't seem to find options for it aside from /help.. since default its currently on the top.. i wonder if we can move it to the right or left ?

NotePad++ is an excellent tool.
I tried several times to do what you suggested, with the results just showing the text of the code on the page where I wanted it.
I noticed that when I pasted
// Show the shoutbox!
shoutbox();
the comment (// Show the shoutbox! ) wasn't turning green, like the rest of the comments in the code.
After I tried several places, I noticed it did turn green, so I saved it and uploaded it.
It worked.

Thanks a bunch.

OMG! Your original instructions were correct, nneonneo.  I forgot to add the exclamation point, hence turning the function into a NOT!  OMG!!  Just one character can cause you all the pain in the world of coding   Anyway, no need to inverse anything, it just works as you instructed.  Thank you soo much for helping me out and now everything works! YES!!

Just because I can, I'm gonna post my yshout.js and yshout.php for anyone to use.  I use SMF 2.0 beta 4 with shoutbox 1.21, FYI.  My shoutbox is configured for sound mod as well.

Correction:
It showed up, but didn't work.

[nneonneo]

@dwd2000: What doesn't work about it?

[dwd2000]

@dwd2000: What doesn't work about it?

It wouldn't post a shout.

When I put the
  // Show the shoutbox!
shoutbox();
back on the index.template.php, it works fine.

[Sandmansa]

@Sandmansa: Post index.template.php, or, if you've done that already, link to the post.

Okay but I just want you to know that I had to move the shoutbox farther up the forum so it didn't make the forum look like something broke.  Also, I don't know what's wrong with it but it's not reading the yshout.css either.  I had to add the style code manually.  And to top it off, the sound does not work.

Today is a good day. 

I have been struggling with an "upshrink" for the shoutbox for a while and I have seen others ask for it once or twice. I finally managed to get it to work so it only takes up space if the viewer is using it. See it here.

It's nothing more than an alteration of the Info Center upshrink. (After quite a while of scratching my head as to why it wouldn't work, I finally noticed that I had never added the proper variable to the database!  )

Maybe nneonneo can add it to this fantastic mod as an option. 

I want to thank Sunking for his extremely kind help in configuring my friend's site's shoutbox !!
I never found anyone around with this availability to help someone that he never heard about.

THANKS A LOT MATE !!!
As I told you, YOU ARE THE BEST !!

Take care !!

In your main Admin Panel, go to "Permissions" (Members section) then go into each group and set the permissions there.
Guests,
Regular Members,
Admin is already set to "All",
Global Moderators, 
Moderator

Click on "Modify" (on right side) to enter each group's permissions.
