[shaglaptop]

EDIT: I just posted the new version to the package directory: here.

Hey, just letting you know that for some reason, the mod's section don't like what you've added.  Also, awsome mod! I just hope it stays simple!  Too many mods seem to become beasts after a while.

This is exactly what I have been looking for, but it is also my first Mod so where do I install the files? so I can get it up and running.  I can foloow the place this code here and that code there but I can't seem to find where I need to place the initial files.

Thanks

If your using the default forum just download the zip for this mod don't extract it but then go into your admin section of your site, go to packages right up the top box click new packages, then click the browse packages, locate the zip upload it then click "install mod"

That will automaticly place the  files in the right spot and edit the correct files for the default theme, "As long as you set the correct permissions for the files" but it will show a test failed or error if that happens.

How do you resize the width on this??

How do you resize the width on this??

tip for -mARKUS : If you séparate your language files, we could give you translation (for me into french) quite simply ?
it's not very difficult but it's could be helpfull ?

I just uploaded the German language-pack to the Mod-Page. Download it there, unpack it and take a look at the sbox_11rc2_german.mod. Just translate the strings there and send the file to me. If I find some time, I'll then upload the language pack.

is there a way to make the history visible to everyone? but not the "Clear History" part?

Somehow I knew this would come ... :-)

Oben sboxDB.php and find these lines:

Code Select Expand

<?php
  if ($modSettings['sbox_DoHistory'] == '1') {
    if (file_exists($sbox_HistoryFile)) {
      echo '[<a href="' . str_replace($boarddir, $boardurl, $sbox_HistoryFile) . '" target="_blank">' . $txt['sbox_History'] . '</a>]';
      echo ' [<a href="' . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . '?action=clearhist" class="Kill" onClick="return clearYesNo();">' . $txt['sbox_HistoryClear'] . '</a>]';
    } else {
      echo '[' . $txt['sbox_HistoryNotFound'] . ']';
    }
  }
?>

Now switch the "if (file_exists(..." with the next line and voilà. Should look like this:

Code Select Expand

<?php
  if ($modSettings['sbox_DoHistory'] == '1') {
    echo '[<a href="' . str_replace($boarddir, $boardurl, $sbox_HistoryFile) . '" target="_blank">' . $txt['sbox_History'] . '</a>]';
    if (file_exists($sbox_HistoryFile)) {
      echo ' [<a href="' . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . '?action=clearhist" class="Kill" onClick="return clearYesNo();">' . $txt['sbox_HistoryClear'] . '</a>]';
    } else {
      echo '[' . $txt['sbox_HistoryNotFound'] . ']';
    }
  }
?>

Also, awsome mod! I just hope it stays simple!  Too many mods seem to become beasts after a while.

I'm trying to keep it somewhat simple ... but it's not easy as many people want an "eierlegende Wollmilchsau"...

How do you resize the width on this??

The WIDTH should be 100% of available space. Your browser is responsible for displaying everything correctly. However, you can change the HEIGHT in pixels in the SMF Settings.

well my forum doesnt take up all of the space in the browser so the shoutbox that is 100% of the width looks very out of place...

Just make a table around the sbox-part in your template ... something like this:

Code Select Expand

<?php
echo '<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="80%"><tr><td>';
  // display shoutbox
  if (function_exists('sbox')) sbox();
echo '</td></tr></table>';
?>

This way you force the sbox to the width of the parent object.

Okay I get the concept just the codes not right lol.





Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' in .../Themes/Black_Gaming/index.template.php on line 246


245: <?php

246: echo '<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="80%"><tr><td>';

247:   // display shoutbox
248:   if (function_exists('sbox')) sbox();
249: echo '</td></tr></table>';
250: ?>


Thanks for the help  .

Remove the <?php and the ?> .... they are only for making SMF syntax highlight the code here...

still an error with the '/; if i take out either one i get an error on a different section

[mbirth]

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' in .../Themes/Black_Gaming/index.template.php on line 245

Sounds almost like you inserted the code into a string ... so try to insert '; between line 244 and 245. And omit the '; in line 249. Should look like this:

245: ';
246: echo '<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="80%"><tr><td>';

247:   // display shoutbox
248:   if (function_exists('sbox')) sbox();
249: echo '</td></tr></table>
250:

If it still doesn't work, please post 5 lines before and 5 lines past the place where you wanted to insert the sbox.

This is your line 239 now... omit the '; at the end of that line.

P.S.: I guess you should learn some PHP basics .... ;-)

Hello everybody,

I've just translated to french (francais) this great and very simple chatbox.
I've modified the .mod file insertSmilie function so it's working now with Mozilla :
if (browserInternetExplorer && platformWindows && (parseInt(navigator.appVersion) >= 2))
