I'm afraid the shoutbox currently can only redirect to the forum homepage after a delete. Guess this is a bug but it will take me a while to find a way to get around it.
I'm only a half geek really...

Sorry if this has been covered here before..

I've installed the shoutbox with no problems, it seems great.. I've had a weird issue with it's formatting though.

When I enable guest posts i get: "Email", "Name" and "Shout"  boxes plus a "view all" link.. that's good.. but I don't want unregged shout posting enabled..

When I disable guest posts I can only see the "view all link" which links to a page where people can post, but.. That seems wrong? Just the tag entry field would be nice. :) I've looked in ssi_examples.php and it does the same in there..  Is something  wrong with my copy, or have i done something wrong?

thanks in advance. :)

I have the exact same problem, for whatever reason the "shout_form()" function is not returning, I got around this by putting the form in the "shout_display()" function.

mixel/Elijah Bliss,

Can you explain a little more what is wrong with guest posting? I tried it and it seems fine to me? Exactly what settings (Both settings and permissions) are you using and what is wrong?

when someone is banned from the boards, but only banned for posting, the person can still post in the shoutbox, think thats fixable?
can this be looked into please.. i haven't heard a response from it.. and its very annoying when someone is banned from posting, but is still able to post in the shoutbox..
thanks

Please try uploading the attached file to your Sources directory.

thanks.. sorry if i sounded harsh.. it was just getting annoying that they were banned from posting... then would go on and on in the shoutbox about why they shoudln't have been banned.
also, there were errors in the code:
line 35
$context['canPost'] = !isset($_SESSION['ban']['cannot_post'] && allowedTo('make_shout');
should be
$context['canPost'] = !isset($_SESSION['ban']['cannot_post']) && allowedTo('make_shout');

same goes for line 123

just incase others want to use this file as well

I have it set to members only response. The form disappears when integrated in to mkportal and mambo, it doesn't even show for the admin. The only way I can get the form to show is by either iframing the shout function or moving the form to the shout_display() function.

The same here.. Doesn't matter which settings i use, it just seems to be the unregistered guest access that messes it up.

This is probably unnecessary, but it illustrates what I/we mean;


Hope that helps clarify a bit anyway. Not sure if this is significant, but i'm still running 1.0.5.

Ed: It definitely seems to have been significant, as I updated to the latest beta, and now it seems to work fine..! :)

Can anyone share if there's a way to collapse the shoutbox or only show it on the index (home) page only?

Elijah Bliss

Sorry about that, I was running an older version of the shoutbox, 1.31 works fine in 1.1.

<?php

include(path/to/your/SSI.php);

I've got that, but the box still shows .. is that used w/a link to collapse it like the categories or should that only make it appear on the home page?

I see what you mean. Go to "Your desired Theme/index.template.php"

find:

// If we're on a certain board, limit it to this board ;).
if (!empty($context['current_board']))
echo '
<input type="hidden" name="brd[', $context['current_board'], ']" value="', $context['current_board'], '" />';

echo '
</form>

</td>


add after


<td>', ssi_shout(), '</td>


now this will look ugly, you 'll have to style it to your liking, but it places the shoutbox in the collapsable area.

on delete a shout, it should return back to the shoutbox.. instead it returns to the forum index

You left out the include line to the file that holds the function.
