There are two layout settings, you're probably using the second one with the input box on the right side.
Below that piece of code, there's an identical piece of code that says:

						<div id='shoutbox-shouts' style='height:{$d['shout_height']}px;overflow:auto'>

							{$d['noshouts']}

							{parse template="inactivePrompt" group="skin_shoutbox" params=""}

							<table id='shoutbox-shouts-table'>

								<tbody>

									{$d['shouts']}

								</tbody>

							</table>

						</div>

						<img src='{$this->settings['img_url']}/spacer.gif' id='shouts-global-resizer' border='0' height='6px' alt='{$this->lang->words['resize_shouts_area']}' style='cursor:n-resize;width:100%' />



Do the same to that one and it'll work.

hmm. i found the correct line, but when i did. it made the shoutbox huge, i wanted to be able to adjust it accordingly.

the value i entered made it too big (regardless what value) and the default height is too small.

I am using 184px

^ Remember you can drag the shoutbox larger so maybe that's what you did.

Getting the following message after a fresh install of the mod:

Fatal error: Call to a member function announcement() on a non-object in /home/content/00/xxxxxxx/html/forums/admin/applications_addon/other/shoutbox/sources/classes/library.php on line 409



1.1.3 & 3.1.4

Any ideas?

Is it possible to remove the shoutbox tab within the Header Forum Navigation? I don't see a reason why it should be linked there.



Yes.

ACP > System > Manage Applications / Modules > Find Shoutbox in the list.

Click the grey button on the right hand side. Choose 'edit application details'

On the following page, find 'Hide Tab' switch it on and save. Take care not to disturb any data on the rest of the page.

Thank you Andy. I appreciate the fast detailed response. It worked like a charm.

my shoutbox dialog box is to the right of the shouts? can this be fixed?




Admin CP -> System Settings -> IP.Shoutbox -> Hook: Global Shoutbox -> Change 'Global Shoutbox Look' from Theme 1 to Theme 2.

I have a problem which appears to be related to the caching function.

IP.Board 3.1.4, Shoutbox 1.1.3

I do not clear out old chats, and today it came up with a message indicating the cache array was empty (and when I checked in the ACP, lo and behold it was)

If I disable shoutbox caching, it works, of course

So is there a reason the caching would fail at, say, 511k rows in the table, and if so what is the workaround (besides turning cache off)

btw small bug, when cache is turned off, the message "No shouts have been made" ALWAYS appears, so it's not properly checking for that setting

here are the chinese characters someone entered that killed shoutbox cached: 龙翔和香肠工厂

the table is set to use utf8 charset....

any way to easily fix the caching function?

Maybe just clear cache for shoutbox as temp fix ?

Hi

I had to hunt to find this support topic....

Ok, my members are getting more than a bit fed up with youtube links dropped in the shoutbox being automatically converted to the embedded video. Why can't it behave like the rest of IPB? If you drop a youtube link in a topic it remains a link. You have to use the media tag to display it as a video. Yet in the shoutbox the default embeds it as a video!

How can I stop this happening. Where do i edit? There isn't an option I can see to stop this default behavior.

Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers

John

^ Tools & Settings > System Settings >Automatically parse media URLs?

Turn to No, the negative side of this is if a user wants to post a yourtube video in a post they will have to use the media bbcode
