The shoutbox has been a problem for some sites in that it was perceived to be causing issues on boards ranging from small 'hiccups' to 'catastrophic whatever'. Some people suggested the idea of opening the shoutbox in it's own window.. Hence the 'naked shoutbox' is born: Steps to implement: create a new file called nakedshout.tpl past the following into it: {* Script Version 7.2.1 *} {* SD - Mod: The naked shoutbox is born! *}
<html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{$stylesheet}" type="text/css" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="{$config.BASE_URL}/ubb_js/ubb_jslib.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="{$config.BASE_URL}/ubb_js/shoutbox.js"></script> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> var confirmText = "{$lang.CONFIRM}"; var notLogged = "{$lang.NO_SHOUT}";
var baseurl = "{$config.BASE_URL}"; var fullurl = "{$config.FULL_URL}"; var imagedir = "{$style_array.general}"; var myUid = '{$myid}'; // Don't get excited, you can't exploit this :D var submitClicked = "{$lang.SUBMIT_CLICKED}"; </script> <title>Naked Shout - powered by UBB.threads™</title> </head> <body>
<table width="810px" height="610px" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"> <tr><td> {$tbopen} <tr> <td class="tdheader">{$lang.SHOUT_BOX}</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="alt-1"> <div id="shout_box" style="height:600px; width: 800px; overflow:auto;"> <div id="shout_content" style="height: 584px;"> </div> </div> <form name="shoutbox" method="post" action = "" onsubmit="shoutit();return false;"> <div align="center"> <span id="shout_field"> <input type="text" name="shoutbody" size="80" class="form-input" maxlength="255" value="" onenter="shoutit()" /> </span> <span id="sending_field" style="display:none"> Sending... </span> <br /> <input type="button" name="shoutbutton" value="{$lang.SHOUT_IT}" class="form-button" onclick="shoutit()" /> <input type="reset" value="{$lang.RESET_IT}" class="form-button" /> </div> <div id="shout_uid" style="display:none;"> Delete this shout?<input type="button" class="form-button" id="del_yes" value="Yes" /><input type="button" class="form-button" id="del_no" value="No" /> </div> </form> </td> </tr> {$tbclose}
</td></tr></table> <script type="text/javascript">getShouts(0);</script> </body> </html> upload to /templates/default directory Step 1 - Done! create a new file called nakedshout.inc.php paste the following into it: <?php
if(!defined("UBB_MAIN_PROGRAM")) exit;
function &page_nakedshout_gpc () { return array( "input" => "", "wordlets" => "" , "user_fields" => "", "regonly" => 1, "admin_only" => 0, "admin_or_mod" => 0, ); } function &page_nakedshout_run () { global $style_array,$smarty,$user,$in,$ubbt_lang,$config,$forumvisit,$visit,$dbh,$var_start,$var_eq,$var_sep,$var_extra; extract($in, EXTR_OVERWRITE | EXTR_REFS); $smarty_data = array(); define('NO_WRAPPER',1); $stylesheet = "{$config['BASE_URL']}/styles/{$style_array['css']}";
$smarty_data = array( "stylesheet" => $stylesheet, "myid" => $user['USER_ID'], );
return array( "header" => array ( "title" => "", "refresh" => 0, "user" => $user, "Board" => "", "bypass" => 0, "onload" => "", "breadcrumb" => "", ), "template" => "nakedshout", "data" => & $smarty_data, "footer" => false, "location" => "", ); } ?>
upload to /scripts dir.. Then you can decide to put a link to it anywhere you want. I chose to add it to the header.tpl and make it part of 'My Stuff' menu, but you can do whatever you want. the header.tpl code is: {* SD - Mod (My Shouts) *} <tr><td class="popup_menu_content"> <a href="{$config.BASE_URL}/ubbthreads.php{$var_start}ubb{$var_eq}nakedshout" target="_blank">My Shoutbox</a> </td></tr>
added after the 'My Posts' stuff. the KEY thing to note is the URL. namely http://yourboard/url/ubbthreads.php?ubb=nakedshout (add target="_blank", if you want a new window) and you are done. Notes: - you can disable your shoutbox in the portal and this will still run fine.
- feel free to change the .tpl heights and widths to your liking. i made mine a large window
- you can also edit /ubbt_js/shoutbox.js and change the update frequency to less than 30secs.. find:
function startTimer(){ shoutTimer = setTimeout("getShouts()",30000); } and change the 30000 to whatever number of milliseconds you want. ie: if you want 5seconds, the number will be 5000.
Keep in mind of the burden on your board. Most shoutboxes aren't too lively, so i had no problem setting it to 5secs
Oh and here's some screenies (note: livewell is just a lang file for my favorite customer - Mitch P !): and and upload all files and *poof* done! enjoy, SD

whoopsie. just ignore the 'Bash' and the extra check box stuff in the screenie. i stripped it out of the .tpl for you, so no worries. that is for another modification.. Push (new member) is the author of that feature and it's really quite neat. there are a couple more tweaks that i might post here later. namely, /me and right click wallops. i already have the /me colorizing going on and the wallops (trout slams etc) can be added later.. enjoy

wallop is : click on user name and slap them with a trout or whatever bash is : if there is a sequence of shouts that seem funny together, you can check the checkboxes and hit the 'Bash' button. That saves it as a post to a special 'Bash forum' for time immemorial. examples of bash are: and and and and and and The idea came from the website, http://bash.org, where IRC and IM conversation snippets are saved to be rated and read for future..

or am i missing your idea ?

I have found that most "available" guestbook scripts SUCK!, so I made my own on www.realmhq.com lol... I had needs no one catered to (both a captcha with the ability to approve entries, which one would think would be simple)

I used to use a paid solution on it, but their captcha wasn't worth the zend encoded container it came in... It never worked, always let spam in, etc...

well, giz just take your form (nice form btw) and threads-ize it. just add a table ubbt_GUESTBOOK and modify it to sit in the middle of the portal page ? modify ubbthreads.php to slam that puppy in, instead of the feeder forum topics or above them.. makes sense ? a giz-guestbook mod!! ? weird how a naked shoutbox thread turns into a giz-guestbook..

lol the form is there, it's called "view source" sd ... as for a paid mod, i suppose, when i get some time, i could attempt to work on something... i'd have to see how rick handles the captcha... it'd likely be a ubbthreads.php/ubb/giz-guestbook page ... I really haven't dabbled in the cp at all in ubb.t7 so not sure where to start there...

Great work Naked Shout box.
I wonder if this could be the solution to my forums hanging when shout box is enabled.
Personally i prefer that members are registered to shout in the box.
Those BASH comments were sooooo funny, i hope that it becomes stock, i really do pmsl.
BOOM 7.6.+ rocks....

that's the main reason this puppy got written -- the forum 'hang' and this only allows registered users to use the shout box, btw

you're welcome,
i'm going to be adding shout-header, shout-footer, for those that want to do a little customising.
also will add time to the line, rather than in the hover.
also will be adding 'whos online in the shoutbox' -- basically a list of users who currently have the 'naked shoutbox' open.. (like IRC does)
and will be adding one click (two actually) theme switching for the shoutbox.. (if peeps likey, i'll port the theme switcher over to threads as a mod)
bleh, that's all for now.. oh and there are a couple bug fixes in the common shoutbox.js code too, that i'll post over here.

A few suggestions from me wanting it as a chatbox: - Have the cursor in the input field after sending a shout and when you load the page.
- Opening times. Open between time X and time Y, if you're in in that timeslot, you can stay.
Somehow setting specific chat times helps getting it more busy and fun - Max people online, to keep serverload acceptable.
- Ban from chat.
- Shoutbox now wordwraps words bigger then 20 characters. For the naked shoutbox this is a bit short.

shoooo fly shooo random musing mode.... idea! had to write it down before putting down for the nite.. the protocol should not only be JSON (leaner), but also only return changes, based upon either last shout id or time.. the way process control does it.. this cuts the xmlhttprequest traffic size down considerably. also, the ajax server(s) should be one file, so that it has a better chance of staying in the php cache as a unit. also easier to maintain one piece of ajaxshoutserver.php code.. drawback.. added branching in the server file.. minimal (imo) weird idea.. add proxy capability for cross-site / multiple joined shouts in one.. ie site1 + site2 .... siten all serving up to same shout UI.. keep in mind: load! convert fully to yui.. add effects for new shouts.. fade in.. etc.. not sure yet.. global / personalized wallop menus.. menus need to be ul, li and NOT table, tr, td! longer history for shouts.. ie ability to search back further than just 30 or whatever.. urls, imgs.. admin cpanel for FULL setup and customization... possible full page reload interval, so adverts get more hits.. colorized names, like in showflat.. admin, mod, whatever.. dynamic resizing with handles, using yui.. set mode -v bleh.. that's it.. brain dump over ..

ok, i've complete overhauled it to use new javascript. this is essentially standalone and only shares with ubbthreads on the user DB side of things as well as to grab the styles. sooo, you don't have to worry about upgrades trashing this. the new javascript (ajax) is much more efficient by using JSON as the transport format. formerly it took 14K to fill a shoutbox and now it takes 4K. i've pushed the load of ALL of the formatting to the client, using DOM instead of burdening the php server code. so this is less of a strain on the server itself. i almost have it done, but will at least leave you with a typical screenie.. the lower right side is a space that you can put your own content into.. ads, logo, whatever.. i showed the ajax 'bashing..' 'sending..' reveals here, but they are normally hidden and come into play on an async call begin. the 2 columns of buttons on the left allow a user to select rows (1st one) for subsequent 'Bash'.. the 2nd column is the same as the delete [x] is now.. selection gives feedback in a different highlight color, like phpmyadmin does for rows.. the upper right hand side is a current tally of who's online in the shoutbox.. configurable in the admin cpanel.. i will wrap it up soon, but it ain't ready for prime time yet.. til then... patience ps: and thanks to Rick!! for the wonderful style from which to use as an excellent look/feel.

hehe.. well you want kick + ban, max online limit ? (i will leave out the start/stop times as you can figure a way to deal with that manually -- ie make the link not work or have a default screen -- for now)
also, i'm using a decay algorithm that offloads the server and it's kinda not right yet.
basically, if you are just idling in the chat window, your delay between async xmlHTTPRequests decays to a longer time (to a limit of course).. this offloads the server load..
when you start chatting or doing things in the chat window, the decay is restored to the 'fast' value (configurable)
i will get a prototype up tomorrow or next day for you to play with.
once caveat.. php 5, so i can use the zend built in json_encode routine (very fast).
if you MUST have php4, then there is a workaround, but i don't recommend. (slower and in php code vs compile c)

hehe.. well you want kick + ban, max online limit ? (i will leave out the start/stop times as you can figure a way to deal with that manually -- ie make the link not work or have a default screen -- for now) The start/stop time in our previous chat worked a bit better then that. It was a time when you could get in, but it didn't close up after that time. If you were in, you stayed in. If somehow you had to reboot, you got 5 minutes to get back in. I'll get that in myselve again. Our max online was combined also with an idle kick. If you were chatter limit+1, it would kick a passive user (no activity for x minutes). once caveat.. php 5, so i can use the zend built in json_encode routine (very fast). php 5 is fine, that's what running at our host.

well, i kinda got sidetracked into 7.3 development. so this puppy sat on the shelf for a bit.
the next time i take it off the shelf and dust it off should be where it get it to the point that it does most of what i've described in the wish list.
i know blaask has some more ideas, so i'm hoping that once i feed it out here, he will also add his magic to make it even better.
if you're looking for a timeframe, i'd say it's a couple of weeks away as i still have some 7.3 items to finish off.

is there any place where this mod is installed where it can be tried out?
from what i've seen so far in this thread, it looks very good, though perhaps far more sophisticated than i really require!

Hi everyone! I asked this over at Ubbcentral, but since it might be a coding issue that needs to be played with, I thought I'd ask it here, too.
Is there a way to periodically clear the messages in the ShoutBox? I don't use the shoutbox on the portal page, but want to experiment with the Naked Shoutbox. I have all of the other coding in place, however, the only problem is that when I opened the naked shoutbox, it had the last posts still listed (and the shoutbox has been turned off since like the beginning of March.)
I would like to empty the shoutbox from time to time, so that people aren't seeing months-old conversations. Since this may be a coding thing, I thought this would be the best place to ask. Thanks!

As posted at UBBCentral; items in the shoutbox should scroll off sith subsequent posts; believe the total number is 30. So on the 31st post, the first in the file will scroll off.

Good stuff, Gardener I'll be adding a new version with more bells / whistles, since it's needed.. I might just leave your example as the final version of nakedshout v1.1 and then create a new thread with v2.0 ty ps: the link to your 'Complete list of my mods' is busticated

ok, i've complete overhauled it to use new javascript. this is essentially standalone and only shares with ubbthreads on the user DB side of things as well as to grab the styles. sooo, you don't have to worry about upgrades trashing this. the new javascript (ajax) is much more efficient by using JSON as the transport format. formerly it took 14K to fill a shoutbox and now it takes 4K. i've pushed the load of ALL of the formatting to the client, using DOM instead of burdening the php server code. so this is less of a strain on the server itself. i almost have it done, but will at least leave you with a typical screenie.. the lower right side is a space that you can put your own content into.. ads, logo, whatever.. i showed the ajax 'bashing..' 'sending..' reveals here, but they are normally hidden and come into play on an async call begin. the 2 columns of buttons on the left allow a user to select rows (1st one) for subsequent 'Bash'.. the 2nd column is the same as the delete [x] is now.. selection gives feedback in a different highlight color, like phpmyadmin does for rows.. the upper right hand side is a current tally of who's online in the shoutbox.. configurable in the admin cpanel.. i will wrap it up soon, but it ain't ready for prime time yet.. til then... patience ps: and thanks to Rick!! for the wonderful style from which to use as an excellent look/feel. What you posted here, it's the same Instructions as the first post on this thread?

Was wondering to if this mod/plugin is dead. I have a forum that the community uses the heck out of the shoutbox. I have the IRC plugin but would like a little more control. Plus this just looks fun.

Is the new version available somewhere? I've been using FlashChat and it's just not healthy. I don't see any other real option for integrating a chat with the UBB logons except this one.

OK it turns out I had implemented this a while ago while waiting for the new version to come out, so it was already on my site. It will certainly work for now - it seems to run fine in the latest version of the code.
The only thing is my chats easily run over 30 lines and I need to save the content afterwards to post for the editors who couldn't attend. I tried to find where to alter the 30 line limit but couldn't see where it was. Where is that set, so I can change it to be 1000 lines?
