Ultimate Shoutbox

[sits]

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

include which line? I'm a newbier, so could you explain a bit more specific?

I have a BIG problem now.
I installed the mod. My Smf version is 1.0.5
After I gave permission to everybody to post on the Shout box I got upset thinking they did not want to do that.
But when I looked att the error logs I saw that many had tryed, but actualy only the administrators could do it.
I decided to uninstall the mod and try again, but then i got this error message

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: smfshout() in ...\Sources\Load.php(1042) : eval()'d code on line 286
and I can´t see anything under my login bar!

What should I do?

Please somebody! Help

Nevermind, I´ve got some help and fixed it.
First I tryed to copy all he update files to the server except for upgrade.php.
It didn´t work
Then I copied the upgrade package and uploaded the files...
It worked!
The buddy mod is working fine also. I did not miss it.. I just have to press install and it was fine!
I just don´t understand why did it happen... I can still see the shoutbox package there but there is not an uninstall option, just delete. And I am not going to use delete again! I swear!
Has anyone any good hint about it?

hi, may i know how to put the shoutbox ?? i install it already.. but nothing shows ?

well, heres what i did
i added this line to index.template.php
            

Code Select Expand

<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=shout_archive">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/' . $context['user']['language'] . '/shout.gif" alt=" shout " style="margin: 2px 0;" border="0" />' : $txt[182]), '</a>', $context['menu_separator'];
i put that code where you find "// Show the menu up top.  Something like [home] [help] [profile] [logout]..." so basicly theres an extra button up that that links to the shout box
and to make the shout image (the button they use like home) i did some photoshoping of the images already up there, took the S from the search button, h from the same button, then 'out' from the logout button.

but if you dont like that, then just add

Code Select Expand

if (function_exists('smfshout'))
  smfshout();
somewhere on your site.. just make sure it works well within the php

hmm, i dun really get it...

Help! I think I accidentally installed the shoutbox twice, and when I tried to delete it, this message showed up:


Fatal error: Call to undefined function: smfshout() in /home2/crystall/public_html/wits/forum/Sources/Load.php(1046) : eval()'d code on line 320

Is there any way I can fix my forum? I'm afraid to close my browser because I don't even see the logout buttons

I can't install it

I get

6.  Execute Modification  index.php  Test failed

I'm running 1.1.3PB and the only installed mods are the Mambo bridge/some avatars/integrated chat mod.

Can I change the stuff in index.php manually?

I found the same problem in 1.0.3 as well Is there something wrong with the uninstalled option? There's always a fatal error.

Sounds like it's not installed properly now.  I would upload all clean files again and then reinstall it.

the sql needs to be 1.0.5 for it will work and i cant install it in the package manager!

[weekend camper]

I looked back about 7 pages but didn't see this one:

package installs fine on 1.1beta3public (no red error messages at least!)

and the shout box appears as normal on my page.  I go to shout (as admin and regular user) and the shout doesn't appear.  Nor does the database increase (ie, the shout is hitting the db).  Clean install of the shoutbox, even deleted the 1.2.x db table.

hints?

weekend camper,

that's very odd... can you view the source of your page and look at what URL the shout form is submitting to - it should be ?action=shout

What happens if you shout from the archive?

[weekend camper]

ah, its doing the right actions shout and shout_archive but it is remaining on the "pure" /index.php page -- meaning I can't see the archives page.  Missing files or improper pacmanager? 

Super strange.  Will dig around the code/uploaded files later on.  Using Bloc's Helios 1.1multi and shoutbox(); as the calling line.  And like I said, a super fresh install (yesterday) of the Shoutbox.

I'll do a manual install in a few days and see if that helps fix the actions.

I've been trying to alter the template to have the message box on the top instead of at the bottom, yet I can't seem to figure it out. Could somebody please help me out?

Greatly appriciated,
Broomie

[m7cky]

Thought I'd point this out as i've been banging my head against the desk for 4 hours before figuring it out. I don't know if this applies to other mods, but I couldn't get past the stage where it asks me for FTP detail, just kept refreshing page when pressing proceed.    My board is intergrated  in mambo, so i just accessed the forum via hxxp:www.mysite.com/mambo/smf [nonactive] (hence not going through mambo) and it worked fine

Hi.
I had installed a skin, named Cerberus, and i want to put the shout, bettwen the user info, and the adveanced search, but i dont know were to put the code to shout appear. Can anyone tell me were i have to put the code to the shout appear?

[Grudge]

DVD,

I don't know that theme - but if you edit index.template.php in that themes directory - and follow my post on page one - you should be able to work out where to put it by trial and error. Hopefully the theme is commented well enough to find roughly the right place.
