SMF Shoutbox

[totoy]

i installed the Deep's sbox_v1.14 mod on my 1.1.4 default theme forum... it works fine.

but i want to add some things to it... i searched over this thread and the other topic but i can't seem to fine the answers  .

i hope someone can help me...

i want to add a background image to the shoutbox; is it possible? if so how? what are the files to edit and what are the codes to change?

and also the shoutbox appear on top of the boards, below the newsbox... i want to place it below the boards right on top of the info center.

pls help me... i have a limited knowledge in php.

Thanks in advance...

I installed the mod without any problems and it didn't appear. I am using a theme that I downloaded from the customize thing.

I think i've gotta add a code to boardindex.template.php


Can someone help?

Hi, i installed this mod (i am sure its this one) Version 1.16b and as an Admin, i cannot see the smilies in the shoutbox. They appear above the shoutbox, and guests and other posters are able to view it.

Whats gone wrong here? What needs changing in the code to enable this?

Sorry if its been asked, but i did a search, but couldnt find a solution...

Ta in advance

by totoy:and also the shoutbox appear on top of the boards, below the newsbox... i want to place it below the boards right on top of the info center.

the code you placed in the boardindex or the indextemplate file.... try posting it down further in that file. You might try looking for :

// "Users online" - in order of activity.

and adding the code just before it...if that doesn't place it where you want it then mmove it up further in the file.

I have no idea how to add a bg image to it...sorry

------------------------

@RuneAvenue:
I think this the line you need to add to that file...if you don't have that file then place it into the idex.template.php file

---------------------

@cmgangrel:

in your admin panel for the smileys settings, make sure you have enabled the ability to use custom smilies, even though you have the default smiley set selected.

I had to do that when I replaced the smilies with those that I got elsewhere.

Hope this hekps some of you

// display shoutbox
     if (function_exists('sbox')) sbox();

[cmgangrel]

It didnt work...

Its only the me (the admin) who is unable to see them... normal members are able to see them just fine.

All i have installed are the classic and Normal smilies (which are the default ones installed)

[DarkAngel612]

That is strange...something that happened to me with a different board software...lol Needless to say they never figured out why but then I found this software and am much happier.

If it were the other way around I would have said to check the settings to make sure they are visible. I am sorry but I hav enot a clue as to how to help you other thant o say to recheck the settings for the shoutbox

[cmgangrel]

yeah checked both, and been playing with all settings thta i can find... just had to disable the BBCode so that i dont get the missing images.

[Truxton]

Is there a way to have the chatbox show up at the top throughout the entire forum?  Instead of only when you're at the index.

I've been looking through this thread, but it's 63 pages long so I *may* Have missed it.

[cmgangrel]

From what i remember you have to change index.template.php instead of BoardIndex.template.php

Still the same edit though.

[DarkAngel612]

In the index.template.php file try this:

remember to work on a duplicate of the file ...


FIND:


/ Show a random news item? (or you could pick one from news_lines...)

Directly above it place the code to show the shoutbox

Save then upload the file and overwrite the one on the server this way. If it doesn't work then just put the original back up there.

IF it did work then you will need to edit all themes this same way.

here are two pics of the settings you will see in the admin section of your boards. This is one I set up on a site without tinyportal installed. those are the setting you can set and like the board if you set it to no guest view or post they should not be able to see it or use it.

[giggetto]

Hi!
I have just istalled this mod. all works fine but I can't find the setting in the admin area... where i can find them???

i have smf 1.1.3 & tp 0.93 default theme.

I think that the problem was on the language. I made a sbox.italian.php from the english file and now I can see the SMF-shout admin panel.

I see tath the history consist in a html file. It would be better to have the history in a normal topic. Is it possibile? what about future release?
It would be great to have more setting like more xuser group setting or more what to see setting ( show or not show name of the week for example)

thank you for your great work! I'm testing it and just loving!

@giggetto:

If you still can't find the settings for the shoutbox then go (since you have timy portal installed), to the block manager link and it will be listed across the top of the list.

SMF Version: 1.1.4
Forum: http://pcwizcomputer.com/forum/

I am currently using the Mesh theme by Bloc:

http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?lemma=218

I wanted to install the SMF Shoutbox:

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=412

It says at the bottom:

To make the shoutbox work with other themes, you have to do the following:

Add the code

  // display shoutbox
  if (function_exists('sbox')) sbox();


at the position you want the shoutbox to appear. (Mostly you will put this into BoardIndex.template.php.)

The problem is, I have no clue where to paste this code. Here is my BoardIndex.template.php file:

Code Select Expand

Where do I paste the Shoutbox code to place it right above the Info Center on my forum?

Thanks

[DarkAngel612]

ok say .... its okay with guest .........

but i dun want my NEWBIE to use it ...... and i cant see any option there ........

try going into your permissions for GROUPS or members and manually remove the option to use it there...if it is listed that is.

[DarkAngel612]

Add the code

  // display shoutbox
  if (function_exists('sbox')) sbox();

at the position you want the shoutbox to appear. (Mostly you will put this into BoardIndex.template.php.)

FIND:

   // Here's where the "Info Center" starts...


Paste that code directly above that line, save and upload to overwrite you file on the server...remember to work on a duplicate file so you can put the original back in caase something happens.

Now if it is still not in the spot you want it try putting it lower down on the file until you get it where you want it to show.

Does any one know how i can post my shout box on a different page on my website..?
