Can't you jsut reupload the files?

I did a complete fresh install and modded it fully. Everyting was fine.

Then I put it over the old DB and all the errors came back. Even lost the Remember Me edit in Navbar.

For some reason it will not fix unless I do changes over the DB.

Refreshing cache or nothing else helps.

I don't get it, but this way seems to be working.

Be it an old, removed mod that left something, or whatever, it is a problem. And I am not the only one encountering it.

I seem to be getting there.

I am using this with the vbadvanced portal hack here :http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showt...rap#post977122
and I need to get the word wrap working.. As it sits right now if someone pastes a link in the shout box on cmps then I get a scroll bar that is VERY long and it messes the shout box up. Does anyone have a fix for this when using the flat file version? I tired the fix listed for the database version but it doesn't work with this one.

rogersnm,

I seem to have it fixed.

Not sure if this info will aid you in any way, but here it is.

I copied the DB and folder, reverted files, removed plugins and products, then worked it back up again.

It works.

But, if I change config to the old DB, the Remember Me and ShoutBox mess up.

Head scratcher, but that is the way it went.

Two things changed in the ShoutBox. Instead of saying No Shouts, it now says.
System Reponse: No Current Shouts

And now the type box expands as I type. Before the text fed into the right side.

Hoping I am done with this issue.

Nice hack.:classic:
Thanks

Hey all,
Sorry about before, did not realise that it would not be as efficient as it should have been lol ;).

Anywho, I went back to the original vbshout.php from here and redid a few of my changes and did something different than before (as suggested by others, XX secs/mins/hours/days ago message instead, but only one of these at a time ;) )

Changes that I made were:
To line 226:
goes to:
To line 64 I then inserted (before echo $content;):
The template for forumhome_vbshout_shout now stands at:

I did try a javascript implementation to do old-style timestamps and I do know that it works via DOM methods but to reduce overhead, it would need to work on the responseText ajax reply, which I am working on...

HTH and thanks for the feedback :S lol,

vbshout.php (19.6 KB, 41 views)

yes that happens when i post many shouts it shows posting in progres... but then nothing appears anyway

do you know how to fix it ?

Unistallation Didnt help

Great Hack, Thank you very much.

I curiosity question, it's normal after installation, the "vBshout Options" voice that is in vBulletin Option column don't looks as the last voice as latest installed product how for example it do on vB 3.5.x or how do the old's vbshout versions, for example to me it is positioned as next to last voice above "Paid Subscription" voice.

I know that this question is a banal question however I would want to try to understand if it is a defect or it is normal.

Thank for any reply.

That looks like nicer code ;) :p

My last post on this until fixed.

I thought it was fixed.

Then I got reports of the editor, scroll bar and other such randomly disappearing. My editor disappeared again.

I copied everything to a test board. I cleaned out everything down to vanilla. I rebuilt from scratch.

All that changed was the nature of the errors.

Be it a random bug in the install script or some incompatibility with the mod, there is a problem.

My 3.5.4, phpBB and other scripts ran or run fine, always with a ShoutBox, on my 100megs site, which specializes in forum boards and similar. All the needed server functions are there and up to date.
