i just tested 2 links to a facebook post and my gmail inbox and they work fine for me.

are you seeing any errors ANYWHERE ?

[Arnox]

Having problems with it not sending messages as well. Tried going through Shoutbox.php and replacing preg_replace with preg_replace_callback. Didn't work. Disabled compression. Didn't work.

Funnily enough, I got the old version for 2.0.8/9 to work as long as you didn't change the text color from the theme default text color.

Just installed, it shows just fine, set all the permissions for members and staff.

But will not send message. Yet if you open the Open Popup and shout it works that way, but not on the forum board itself..

Anyone ever have a weird issue with the buttons on the right side of the text box where they overflow to the right of the shoutbox? I attached a screen shot of it...

Also only occurs when using chrome. I'm thinking it has something to do with the Reseller theme using bootstrap because i don't have this issue on other themes.

Any Suggestions on what to do on how to fix it?

Has anyone posted a solution to this? If yes please do link me to the post.

Thanks.

For some reason Ban user doesn't work anymore, not sure is that problem came since 2.0.15 or appeared after installing some mod. Lite version. Any idea about how to fix?

Guys,

Suddenly shoutbox disappeared from my forum

I have checked every code in required files and they seems to be ok-ish
All the required files has correct write permission.

I'm on 2.0.15

Any suggestions please.

Are you using a custom theme? If so, do you see the shoutbox when using the SMF default thee?

[UltimatePremium]

Just checked default and also shoutbox not available

[Nibogo]

Your best bet would be to uninstall the mod and then install it again, something probably broke it.

Could this be caused by me trying to lengthen the limit on posts in the box? You cant even get a full sentence in with the stock settings.

[Arantor]

No, it's the regex used to split up long words, originally borrowed from SMF's code but not updated to fix things when they changed in PHP 5.5.

SMF fixes this in 2014, but the mod author didn't update. Unfortunately I'm on mobile right now and rewriting the regex on mobile is super painful. If I remember I'll post the corrected version tonight when I'm back on my regular machine.

[delta5]

Ok great! My members really like it. Can you let me know here when it is fixed?

[UltimatePremium]

Done that, reinstalled now but got another problem.
Shoutbox settings are blank. Can't even change any settings, seems to be permission issue?

Can anyone please point me into right direction?

[br360]

Are the settings blank or is the text not visible due to the background color of that theme? (text same color maybe?)

Can you see the settings when using another theme?

I don't have the power to fix the mod, only to suggest what the code change would be (to actually fix the mod itself you need to bug the author, who isn't me), but I just realised, you have the site whose domain is that you're fed up with people like me, so... yeah. Sorry to get your hopes up, maybe you'll get better luck with the plugin's author.
