Download: Shoutbox

[Michael]

There's a setting for whether or not you want to allow that under the Global Configuration settings group for this app.

Thank you

[Calvin39]

Sorry About this Michael but I have 3 problems mate.

1) Shoutbox Archive problem is atill not working, still getting same error

2) I am unable to edit shouts anymore

3) I can no longer drag the box down to show more shouts on the board index

And can you please provide me with your donation link, I think its about time I give you a donation again.

[Michael]

The archive thing is not fixed, I know that, I just wanted to direct you to a link where I showed you I am aware and that I have asked IPS for a method where I can troubleshoot the problem. I can't fix it until I can find some way to see where the memory is leaking.

For the other two, those are probably javascript issues. Check the post here for instructions on how to verify you have everything installed properly for the app.

If you'd like to send a donation, I have a sidebar link at the bottom of my board index.

Hello i am back once again my shoubox gav me a fatal error and the error is saying this
Fatal error: Call to a member function announcement() on a non-object in /home/themoddi/public_html/admin/applications_addon/other/shoutbox/sources/classes/library.php on line 391

[Michael]

That question is answered in the Shoutbox FAQ.

Hi Michael,

I made my index.html page from IP.Content my home page. I only wanted the shoutbox to appear here. As a result I went into the Global Shoutbox and choose "INCLUDE only in specified pages", with "Pages list" as app=ccs.

This worked perfectly. However I have recently got to grips with custom databases, and parsed a database to a new page. Naturally with the setting above, the shoutbox also appears on this database page as well, and I still only want it on my home page (index.html). I have tried following your FYI section, and every conceivable combination, but am hitting my head against a brick wall. It either displays on all IP.Content pages or none at all.

Is there any advise you can suggest?

Thx in advance.

[Michael]

IP.Content acts weird with those blacklist/whitelist settings, I've tried to make it work on those pages before but have been unsuccessful. You may want to put in a suggestion in the tracker for improving how it works with IP.Content.

[Rugger]

No worries, will do.

may want to conditionally check for ccs installed and add a simple selection of pages if it is.... without ccsFunctions and a selection of pages it IS impossible to do this correctly Michael.... only reason I ever bothered with a block.
It is that one application that can run completely outside ipb... or in a subdirectory thereof... without using ccsFunctions, and in specific the getPageName method, you can never guarantee a proper check.

take the global shoutbox hook...use its contents to create yourself a block in IPC ... then display that block on whatever page you want, hence giving you the results you desire

here is the one I built using that method for my personal site (might need adjustments as it was pulled from 1.2.5)

block_sb-block.xml

I've tested it with 1.2.7 and it works as intended..

you use the visibility restrictions built into the Hook:Global Shoutbox settings... I use

Hook to enable?: Top of Each Page

Display on?: Every Page

Type of Page Check: INCLUDE only on specified pages

Pages list: app=ccs,page=index

then add the block key at the top of the index page of IPC

[Rugger]

Hmm good idea. I'll give that a go tomorrow. Cheers.

I tried your block, and replacing the public get output function with my version 1.2.6, and with both I get:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method skin_ccs::pagesCheckList() in /home/epic/public_html/admin/applications_addon/ips/ccs/sources/pages.php(419) : eval()'d code on line 6154

This subsequently relates to this:

eval( $skinFile['cache_content'] );

So I'm still stuck.

firstly... that was rather Low Simons... the cache of that block blatantly states you just posted up some of my porting.

I have just updated this to no longer load the emoticons cache, among other code fine-tunings...

MT, I'm still having issues, but rather than hijack this support topic, which isn't really the place, i'll PM you.

my apologies ... didn't realize you had a hook out to accomplish this already .. wasn't intentionally trying to step on any toes .. was only trying to help out

Just updated to the latest version and now when I'm more then 10 min inactive on my site there's a little message that says "blablabla you inactive blablaba click the I'm back button"
But when I click it, nothing happens.

Thank you Michael, it worked perfectly. Even my pages are loading a lot faster now ;)

Couple of display problem upgrading from 1.2.4 to 1.2.7 Shoutbox.

1.) The Gap between the username in the shout is now too long
2.) There is now line on every shout, before no line it very clean.

Picture example below...

[Michael]

1) The gap is there because there's someone's name in the list of visible shouts is long enough to push the section beside it over.
2) You can re-skin that if you'd like, the border is set in the ipshoutbox.css file, under the #shoutbox-shouts-table .row2 td definition.
