Try replacing the second line with

Code Select Expand

// Show the [Forum] button.       
    echo '<li', $current_action == 'Forum' ? ' class="current"' : '', '><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=Forum"><b>' , $txt 'forum' , '</b></a></li>';

it may or may not work

@sattninja   try this one

hey i got it late last night but unrelated to that my chat box changed it has a scroll bar now i hate it

[Eliana Tamerin]

The shoutbox has a scrollbar because either a) the number of shouts displayed is too large, b) the container size for the shoutbox is too small, or c) the shouts themselves are too large. It's automatic, not something that SP can really control. If you don't want a scrollbar, either reduce the number of shouts displayed or increase the height of the shoutbox.

i adjusted both and still the same it seems to be font related but i didnt sdo anything with the fonts i have deleted it and reinstalled it and it is the same is there somewhere in the template.php i can adjust the font i dont know but it was fine one minute then it was gone it saif it was only in my head so i deleted and made a new one and now it s like this

another thing i noticed is the delete buttons over to the right those were never there either

it's like the box that your text in is too big not the main box

i changed container size no go
i changed the height no go
how do i change the font size

[airric00]

I get words instead of pictures...  Like dot or arrow instead of the pictures...  Did I do something wrong?  any work around??

I have 1.1.11 an just installed SP 2.3.1.I configured an added a shoutbox but i don't see a shoutbox?

[sattninja]

i had the same problem i think it is a glitch in the new release

[mirahalo]

you have to create a shoutbox then you have to create a shoutbox block, in this block you will have to select the shoutbox you already created and set the necessary permissions for it.

[Pinball Nation]

Thanks for the info.I feel so silly now an should have known that.

[Eliana Tamerin]

@Pinball Nation, @sattninja: I added a feature request to our tracker to help ease that confusion: http://simpleportal.net/index.php?issue=326.0

Maybe we'll see it in 2.4.x or later. Nevertheless, it's on the books now.

[Pinball Nation]

When i try to create an add a shoutbox i get this error message

Code Select Expand

Illegal mix of collations (utf8_unicode_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8_general_ci,IMPLICIT) for operation 'ifnull'
Line: 1293

Note: It appears that your database may require an upgrade. Your forum's files are currently at version SMF 1.1.11, while your database is at version 1.1.6. The above error might possibly go away if you execute the latest version of upgrade.php.

[mirahalo]

that will be because one of your tables have the wrong collation,   go to your cpanel or similar and then go to phpmyadmin, select your forum database then select the table with the wrong collation and change it, all your tables have to have the same collation.

[Pinball Nation]

Thanks for the info but i don't know what to change?This is my database.

@Pinball Nation   all your sp tables:   

sp_articles     
sp_blocks       
sp_categories
sp_functions       
sp_pages       
sp_parameters       
sp_shoutboxes       
sp_shouts       

and some other from other mods have different collations:

sp tables:  utf8_general_ci

rest of your tables:  utf8_unicode_ci

so you have to go to your phymyadmin, click and one of your sp tables,  then in the main menu theres an opcion name Operations, or something, (my phpmyadmin is in spanish so I just translated that as it is)   heres an image that explains better:




just change the collation from  utf8_general_ci  to utf8_general_ci , do the same of all your sp tables and another ones who has the same collation

[Pinball Nation]

You mean change from utf8_general_ci to utf8_unicode_ci
so sp will match the rest.Am i correct.I would also like to mention that the mods listed in there are no longer installed.

[mirahalo]

yes, you should change the utf8_general_ci  of your sp tables for this one utf8_unicode_ci   so all your tables have the same collation, even if the mods is not installed anymore, if you ever installed those mods again, is better to have all your tables with utf8_unicode_ci  to avoid conflicts in the future

[Pinball Nation]

Ok i got ya.
