SMF Shoutbox

[DarkAngel612]

divecall:

Have you tried opening the zip file and checking in admin/packages/installed packages to see that they were all installed?

Make sure the files that get installed into the default theme are also manually installed into all themes you have installed.

IF all else fails you could go into the database and manually change those setting in there

Where can i find a link to the latest version so i can get it uploaded to my forum?

[DarkAngel612]

go up a few posts...both the 1.16 and 1.20 versions are attached to my post

I just added nneonneo's Shoutbox  through my packages tab and installed it but how do i activate/use it?
I can find where it is

[DarkAngel612]

you need to go back to the downloads page, where you got it, and the instructions are at the bottom for you to follow.

Any mod is usually installed into the default themes only so any other theme needs to be manually edited with code and files if any.

Well since DarkAngel's 1.1.6 version of the shoutbox didn't work for me....

I spent all night messing with the code to make it work And I did. This SHOULD work and i patched a vulnerability in it wich you can inject html code and javascript code a way to hack your forum.

So it's all patched and working with 1.1.6 will try to make one for the 2.0 versions... im gonna go to sleep for now

BTW

add this code

Code Select Expand

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

To show were you want the shoutbox in your theme folder in boardindex.template.php

Any questions? Please PM me.

I moved my forum to a new home here
http://tomsinternetyardsale.com/index.php?action=forum  got about 98% of it all working but for the life of me I cant get my shout box to work is there some other setting some were that I need to change and I think I put this in awhile back when my forum was version 1.1.1

If my memory serves me right I had to manually install and I changed some of the wording to fit my site
This is my old site here still online were it works great and I did run the repair_settings.php on the link above

you now get an option for add smiley on the top of the menu> click on upload smiley>browse select smiley from you're pc,  then in the code box add something like this [grin] then save changes,  and you're smiley will appear in sbox and posts

hi,

i want to remove this shoutbox for some reason for few days.

Accidently i clicked on 'delete' instead of 'uninstall'.
Now ,shoutbox is still present,cant uninstall it.

pls help.

[kizley]

any one pls..


how do i uninstall shoubox,i am trying and message is oming you cant uninstall .

[robbie93]

how can you uninstall if you said you deleted it?

the only way to delete it now is to do it manually I think

you have to send the sbox file you used to the package parser and click uninstall and it will show you what you have to do to remove it from you're site ( I hate that crap   )

[DarkAngel612]

if it is only temprarily go to the boardindex.template.php file and remove the code for sbox. Keep a copy of the code for later, you can then when ready add the code in the very same spot so take not of where you remove it from.

This will not allow the sbox to show thus appearing as if it is removed.

If you are using themes other than the default one then you may need to remove the code from them also.

[kizley]

yeah i am using 1.1.6 default,

let me try the above methods,thanks guys.

i will tell you the result

[kizley]

this is saying we cant uninstall in smf 1.1.6

:sad:

i am not the main admin,any help pls..

[DarkAngel612]

you do not have access to the server files?

if you remove the code you remove the shoutbox from being seen but it is not uninstalled....so later you can put the code back to let it be seen when you wish it to be.

another way is to go into the packages folder on your server and remove it from there and the index file that is in there

but you do need access to the files -- if you cant then contact your main admin to do it.
