Shoutbox works good except that mine is complaining about /noncgi/delshout.gif missing on IE and Opera. I'm snagging a graphic to stick in there, but you should probably put a note in there that this file is required.

Yes, noncgi/delshout.gif is a required graphic for the delete button of admins/mods.

Ok...I admit I am confused...

I am unclear as to how I am adding this hack...

Is it all just one file called ubbshoutbox.cgi?

I'm pretty sure you upload ubbshoutbox.cgi in the appropiate folder and then call it onto your web page via SSI etc. whatever method you must use.

*Disappears*

Yes, what LD said, except that it's "ubb_shoutbox.cgi" tipsy ... and that you should upload it to cgi-bin folder of your UBB.

You rename "ubb_shoutbox64.txt" to "ubb_shoutbox.cgi", and upload it to your cgi-bin directory

1. "http://www.sourceonline.com/cgi-bin/ubb_shoutbox.cgi?s=javascript" - don't you mean djsourceonline?

2. When I try to access your shoutbox manually, I get a permission error... CHMOD it to 755 if it's UNIX, if not tell your server admin to change its mode to make it executeable.

Very nice Gizzy... works perfectly. Thanks to you and the others who worked on this.

A question... it allows unregistered or unlogged in members to post... how can I prevent this or is it possible?

Also, is there a way to refresh it automatically?

Thanks again...

WL, in ubb_shoutbox.cgi file there is [code][/code]Change "1" to "0".

to refresh it automatically - it's possible, but then it will also refresh the line where you type the text and it might be really annoying shocked . The best thing to do is to use jgeoff's modification to this mod - http://www.thegodfathertrilogy.net/chatbox_howto.txt

Appereantly some perl code was changed as well.

There are some small differences in ubb_shoutbox.cgi such as removing the textbox...

Copy "ubb_shoutbox.cgi" to "ubb_shoutbox2.cgi". Open ubb_shoutbox2.cgi.
Find:
(MANY times)
Code:
[/code]replace with:[code]
For example: (there are MANY others)
Code:

Hi - I just installed it and it works fine for "unregistered" users but gives an error for registered users (if logged into the UBB forums).
Here's the error Msg when trying to post as a registered user:
"Software error:
Undefined subroutine &main::md5_hex called at /home/cust1/usr1153/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/ubb_lib.cgi line 376.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster..."


Here\'s the link to Shoutbox on The Other Side BBS

It looks like a great MOD. Just need a little tweaking to include registered users. I have tried both setting by setting the 0 and 1's in the config in the code.

I am calling it from
http://www.theothersidebbs.com/cgi-bin/ubbcgi directory

And have tried moving it to:
http://www.theothersidebbs.com/cgi-bin
directory

Any help from the UBB dev gurus would be more than appreciated !
Thanks in advance...
- Keyz

hmm - well take care if you use the .js script in a table/cell.
If someone post a picture as big as people have done in this thread it will stretch the cell as wide as the picture :rolleyes:

I decided to use a inline frame instead ...

Hi I recently added a ShoutBox to my forums and I have a question. When someone posts a shout it adds the delete icon next to their last shout. I assumed this was to allow them to delete their last shout. However when they click on it to delete they get a No permission message. ??

Loving this shoutbox though. Members where looking for a way to say howdy to people they saw on the forums and I didn't want to add a full chatroom to the site.

moved my site to a server with apache and get a 500 ISE with it now... any ideas why it's giving me a hassle now when it worked fine on iis? I've set permissions on it to 644, 666, 755, and 777 without any improvement. I've re-upped it a few times too tipsy

Okay, that doesn't help a lot wink it means that it didn't print content-type... Can you try to add content-type: text/htmlnn everywhere you think it fits in ubb_shoutbox, and in each instance put different text afterwards, then tell me in which line it stops printing it?

Does anyone have the Shoutbox.cgi and shoutbox2.cgi available for download?

Or, Can someone explain a little more how to edit these to not put the text area and submit box in the bottom frame?

Thanks

Allen, maybe once per 10 lines of code put print "Content-type: text/htmlnn[line number]" replacing [line number] with the line number... But make sure it's not in the middle of something, for example don't put it in the middle of:
Quote:
quote:
BEGIN { # get our modules directory set up
($0 =~ m!(.*)(\|/)[^/\]+!) && unshift(@INC, $1, "$1$2Modules");
$| = 1;
}
but instead, put it in the end (after })

ok, it printed out all the Content-type: text/html line numbers until the one after line 216, then it started printing the shoutbox, without any styles and all users were 'unregistered':

What does this mean?

"Software error:
Undefined subroutine &main::md5_hex called at /home/edndot/public_html/cgi-bin/ubb/ubb_lib.cgi line 395"

MD5 is installed - I am using the I-Frame method

Thanks,

Hi Allen,
What browswer are you using?

When I use IE 6.0 I get this:
"Software error:
Undefined subroutine &main::md5_hex called at /home/edndot/public_html/cgi-bin/ubb/ubb_lib.cgi line 395"

When I use netscape 7.0 I get This:
You are not logged in. You must be logged in (and registered) to perform this function.

Login or Register

Ummm?

It can't be with your browser, it has to be a problem somewhere in your server...

I'm working on updating the }}}ChatBox{{{ to work with UBB.classic 6.5 ... it's almost there, and hopefully I'll figure it out w/o asking (begging) LK for help laugh

For some reason it seems this part isn't working any more in the submit form:

[code][/code]Still looking into it... and still missing it. May have to begin begging LK laugh

P.S. What's wrong w/ the time stamps on this board?

Mine works fine with 6.5 so not sure there. As far as the time stamps go, set your time zone in MY PROFILE and it corrects it.

Ran into a little problem this morning. All the shouts that had been posted had been removed or were lost. This follows me actually pointing out the DELETE X for users as they were posting corrections as additional shouts instead of removing and reposting. So, I posted a request as to who or what removed the shouts if known and received the following.
_______________________________________________

I was trying to use them last night (very early).

First, I could not see the [X].

I added a shout and then I could.

I tried to delete my shout and received a No Permissions error message.

I placed another shout to that effect.

I tried once more to delete the first shout, received "no permissions" and all shouts were still present upon refresh.

When I left, all were there. Just mentioning this in case it's bugged or something.
_______________________________________________
Is anything in the above scenario able to wipe all the shouts? I am aware of the fix in this thread and will apply it now... but would like to attribute the missing shouts to an error and not a hack.

Thanks!

Ok still working on this.

I created a new member, and my board requires that you be approved for membership. When you first register and are in the Registration Que the shout box shows

Content-type: text/html

Where the shouts would go and

User not approved

Where the input box would go. Makes it look kinda broken. Going to authenticate the test user to see if anything else is strange from the regular user point of view. My tester above claims after the Permissions fix he saw Delete graphics on ALL shouts after posting one ... going to test that now wink

Oh wow ... it DOES show the delete graphic next to every shout, but it appears it only deletes YOUR shout regardless of which one you press. Can you verify this is as intended LK, and that other shouts can not be deleted by some fluke?

I can't confirm it, go to http://www.ubbdev.com/ubbcgi/ubb_shoutbox.cgi?s=iframe or http://www.lkworld.com/cgi-bin/ubb_shoutbox.cgi and you'll see it only has an [x] near the last shout, if you posted it.

When someone submits a shout in the ChatBox, the bottom frame and the top frame both reload and show the shouts. The bottom frame is supposed to always show the input form.

(You can see the ChatBox on the UBB in my sig)

I'm having one small problem with it, if I delete a shout while in a topic, it'll reload the topic with "No Topic found" but if I do it on the main page it works fine, anyone else get this?

I keep having this silly problem of which I suspect I'm really overlooking something obvious.

Im using iframes within a table, so far so good cos everything is working. Except that for some reason the shoutbox wont show the ubb smileys: the links keep directing to the cgi-bin instead of the normal ubb dir. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I tried to access your homepage, http://-/, but it doesn't seem to work wink If you still can't understand why the URL is a required field, can you just post here or in PM your _real_ URL?

woopsie daisy, it seems the process of waking up didnt complete, today.. ;D


My html source tells me that its looking for the graemlin in the root but when i checked the html source for other examples mentioned in this topic, the link was a complete link to the forums, eg src="http://www.domain.com/ubbnoncgi/smile.gif". Mine just says "src="smile.gif" where the root obiously is the cgi-bin... And i cant help it, i fear that ill add a shout "doh" when the problem is solved, it has to be something simple im overlooking.

Thnx for checking it out smile

That's pretty odd.. you can see in ubb_shoutbox.cgi that it replaces the regular smiley URL with the full path. For some reason it doesn't do it in your board..

A simple workaround would be to find:
Code:
[/code]add below: (untested)[code]

[code][/code]isnt anywhere in my ubb_shoutbox.cgi... could that possibly be the cause? In any cause, i know so little about perl and cgi, i wouldnt be able to even guess where to add that line if not below the line you mentioned... Maybe i need to add it somewhere?

well thanks to everyone, lk and the godfather guy mostly.
I finally got my shoutbox working under TRIPLE frames. Yes 2 frames within a frame which I didnt even think I could do...
and regardless of what you have heard, UBB can be made to work within frames!!!
actually now my homepage includes my message board and SEVEN frames at once.

since it's in the header, try to add
Code:
print '<script type="text/javascript">function goforit() { }</script>';
to somewhere on the ubb_shoutbox.cgi code.

I am using Shoutbox version 6.6...

Everything was going good, and before I launch my site I am testing everything. I went to test the shoutbox...attempted to delete a shout(I'm Admin), and then I got this message:

Can you check your error log, or ask your server admin to send it to you if you don't have access to this file, and paste here the lines about the time you tried to delete the shout?

Take a look at my board:
http://www.oxfordbar.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php
Two things:
Shoutbox looks stupid - how would I blend it in with my board?
Where is the graphic that's missing - delshout.gif - where do I upload it from?

MrC, just wondering why you didn't just go to 6.7.1, as it has a whole lot of great new features?

You can steal delshout.gif from UBBDEV's shoutbox.

So 6.7.1 version is compatible with my board? - my board is version 6.6.1

I meant the UBB version. You just restarted your boards, and 6.7 has been out for months

Because my access to the downloads section ran out before 6.7 was released, I downloaded version 6.6.1 just before it ran out, just got round to installing it now.
So am I using the correct shoutbox for my board?
How would I go about making it look better. I currently have the code that calls it in the footer html of my style sheet, for a start I don't want the shoutbox appearing on every page - just the main page and maybe alongside the board? What do you think?

You're using the proper shoutbox for your version. And you take delshout from ubbdev.

I uploaded my ubb_shoutbox.cgi in text mode, and set permissions to 755. But for some reason I get a 500 Internal Server Error in my iframe. I can't figure out why the cgi file isn't working properly. Any ideas? THANKS!

hmm.. should be a simple upload. You might delete it and re-upload and re-set permissions to 755 - it's possible the file got corrupted in the transfer.

OK.... I reuploaded it from work, and now I get a software error. No clue what any of it means.

It's on the right sidebar.

Thanks!

you need to install the 6.7 version, which is located in this forum

Thanks a million! It's working.

By the way... any way to overide the colors? I changed the color settings in the cgi, but it is still using my templates colors instead. I don't want the ugly black background... can't figure out how2 get rid of it.

Thanks!

I have version 6.4 of Ubb. I am still trying to install the shout box. I uploaded the cgi file to the main directory of my server (domain.com/cgi-bin/) and set the permissions to 755.
I placed the call to the shoutbox into my generic footer. I also changed the url to the cgi-bin to match the server address. Which script do I put in there?? The Java, SSI or Iframe??? or all three???

HELP !!! LOL

UBBDev.com is for UBB.Classic development.
ThreadsDev.com is for UBB.Threads development.

Two questions (6.6):

1. Is there any way to pull up old shouts that are no longer in the box?

2. Is there any way to make this work without having to refresh to see new posts? Something like the ajax shoutbox that other forum models use.

old shouts get deleted automatically once the number limit is reached...

We haven't used ajax yet, got a link to one working on another site?

I've never seen it on UBB. I've got one on my vbulletin forum but I'm sure you've seen it in the works before. If you haven't go here: www.bowrd.com and don't consider it as spam as I don't even really have the site up yet.. I'm still waiting on my styles to be completed as well as a couple custom scripts.

Is there perhaps a way to make a log of all the shouts?
