Thanks Brian,

I'm sure that I'll resist the temptation to abuse the account! ::)

Do you have your shoutbox within TP or similar?

nneonneo

@Col: Shoutbox disables guest posting by default. You would need an account to access the shoutbox.
@fritpa: If you're referring to the info center (where a number of people decided to put it), see the thread about three pages back (there's a fair bit of discussion on putting it in the info center)

As for the collapsing shoutbox problem, it's because the header code is still linked to it.
Quick fix:
Find ', empty($options['collapse_header']) ? '>' : ' style="display: none;">','
and replace it by a single >, so the line looks something like
<div id="yshout">...loading shoutbox...
That should fix the odd vanishing shoutbox.

Hi nneonneo,

thanks for the hint, but unfortunately I cannot locate an exact match of the code you provided. I grepped through various files - could you give me the filename and an approx line number where to look?

Thanks again for your support!

Thomas
Totosfo: the code is in index.template.php; if you did not move the shoutbox from the original header position youdon't have to change the code, but if you moved it, it's in the block of code that was moved (<div id="yshout"[...]). Sorry for the late reply, i have to admit I must have skimmed over it...

Do you like SMF? Are you using ProBoards, InvisionFree, ActiveBoards or some other web-hosted forum? I can help you convert to SMF (without having to purchase a DB conversion)...contact me [nneonneo {at} gmail *dot* com], and see this topic

is it possible to handle hungarian utf-8 characters, like őúűí ?
thx, blez

nneonneo

Shoutbox should already use utf-8 encoding by default.

One of my user looks like this (attachment), but his basically called Töki. What cause this prob? Can u help me?

Col

SMF uses charset=ISO-8859-1 by default. Could this be the cause of the problem? Those square boxes show up when usual characters are used with the default charset, or at least I think they do.

I would have thought if you have switched to using utf-8, then those Hungarian characters should be displayed without a problem. Does the shoutbox definitely use utf-8? I don't pretend to really understand the issues with character sets.

Pennine ARL

I am using a different theme and I have the shoutbox appearing and ready to use but when you submit a message I get this error code appearing in the shoutbox

Warning: fopen(chats/home.txt) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /mounted-storage/home37a/sub003/sc29427-YCPC/www/guestbook/yshout/yshout.php on line 660
File error (writeLine); aborted

Can anyone help?

fritpa

Any chance to put this shoutbox at the bottom of the page? and how can I limit de numbers of shout (lines)?

Thanks.

Daggers

Read through the posts matey, both of your questions have already been answered  ;) :D

@xsharewarex: not my fault. Shoutbox doesn't even use MySQL.
@brianjw: I am trying to resolve the problem, but my host is temporarily down (self hosted :P). I will see if the character encoding thing is related to SMF's default encoding (I'm guessing it does, but that's just a hunch)
@Pennine: Please chmod chats/home.txt to 755. If that fails, try 777.
@fritpa: See pages 15-16.

Some more Future Version Suggestions

- Makes a sound when someone has posted in the Shoutbox (can be disabled in some file or admin if applicable)
- Clear all posts; This will automatically delete posts displayed in the shoutbox by time. As an example you can set it to clear all messages every Saturday at some time. (can be disabled and edited in some file or admin if applicable)


Brianjw ;)

nneonneo, what about these suggestions and I also... have more!!!

Suggestions...
- Do not keep history. Only keeps what is displayed in the shoutbox (turn on or off in admin panel or some file)
- Fix the shoutbox: All symbols can be used like: ™, (c), R, etc.
- Guest can post in shoutbox. They type there name in and they type (turn on or off in admin panel or some file)
- Options (how many posts show up, use BBC and Smileys, History on or off, symbols to use, etc.) should be kept in an admin area or a separate file like options.php that all the files link to for several options you can modify manually.
- Create an admin panel for the nneonneo's shoutbox!

Brianjw - suggestions is my thing :D
