Its simple and the instructions are for setting it up on the Flashback Forum index page, but you could put this anywhere on your site using any skin with a little know how.

I might make templates for the other Jamroom default skins if I see an interest in it.

Hope You Enjoy It!

awesome good stuff
so it only shows one shout at a time?
I tried it with the evolution template

[Douglas]

It shows all shouts, there are scroll buttons to scroll the div the shouts are in. However the buttons are being pulled from the Flashback/images... there are also a few other places that you'll need to change the skin=Flashback to your skin name.

I looked for it on your site, but didn't see it.

Hope this helps

In the code you added to your forum index, find this:

Code

<a href="#" onMouseover="moveup()" onMouseout="clearTimeout(moveupvar)"><img src="{$SKIN_URL}/images/chart_up.png" border=0></a>&nbsp;<a href="#" onMouseover="movedown()" onMouseout="clearTimeout(movedownvar)"><img src="{$SKIN_URL}/images/chart_down.png" border=0></a>

and change it to this:

Code

<a href="#" onMouseover="moveup()" onMouseout="clearTimeout(moveupvar)"><img src="{$SKIN_URL}/images/charts/up.png" border=0></a>&nbsp;<a href="#" onMouseover="movedown()" onMouseout="clearTimeout(movedownvar)"><img src="{$SKIN_URL}/images/charts/down.png" border=0></a>

next, in your shoutbox.tpl, shoutbox_scroller.tpl and shout_comment.tpl, you'll want to go through it and change the skin names to your skin a long with any classes for the divs.

Hope this helps

Sorry for my ignorance I was just wondering what is it that this Actually does, just so that I can figure how to implement it into my site.

Hi there Six

The shout box works great on one of my sites...

How can I go about adding the smileys on the shoutbox comment
I want to add it to the popup box in the shoutbox...


I found this old request from 2007...
http://www.jamroom.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=18081&highlight=smiley

but I know Jamrooom has change so much...I don't know if this will work now.

So...I found another talk about smileys...

And the smileys are located in the smiley.cfg.php file in the config directory...

how can I pull it from there and into the shoutbox


Thanxx

[Douglas]

I was planning on making an update to this anyway, so it can be used in all the Jamroom default skins and maybe add the templates so you don't have to do the modifications yourself, I'll look into adding in smilies as well.

Thanks

Kooooooooooooool.....thats great Six...

I'll be on the look out for the update or the smileys hookup ...

I have it working on the Nova skin...
but it does act funny in FIREFOX when its on the same page with the ajax tabs.
The page turns completely white.

So...I'm working on putting the shout box..on a totaly different page away from the Ajax tabs.
To avoid any conflict.

Oh yeah....since we are on topic....the shout box...has also...act funny in FIREFOX when running on the same page with the image slider from Jukebox

It also turns the page white

Once again...a goood job..with this feature....

[Douglas]

Thanks!

There may be conflicts if you use this on a page that has other java scripts running... since the scroll feature is java. I might look into another alternative for that as well.

Six...

I was trying to add an extra box(field)...to display in the popup shout box...maybe on top of the comment box...

and I did manage to create one by just adding the following:
<input type="text" name="comment_name" maxlength="20" value="{$comment_name}" class="jform input" style="width:250px">

in the form location/
<a name="form"></a>

<form name="comment" method="post" action="{$JAMROOM_URL}/comment.php?mode=save_comment">
<input type="text" name="comment_name" maxlength="20" value="{$comment_name}" class="jform input" style="width:250px">
<input type="hidden" name="band_id" value="{$smarty.config.block_shoutbox_id}">
<input type="hidden" name="type" value="artist">
<input type="hidden" name="tpl_dir" value="skin">
<input type="hidden" name="skin" value="Nova">
<input type="hidden" name="template" value="shout_comment.tpl">

blaaaah..blaaaah...blahhhh
</form>

but as im testing it...its not displaying anything...
I even created it with a custom form field...and called it "comment_name" and nada...

You have any imput on adding another box ...
I want to try something out like how the blogs are done..they have 2 boxes to write in...and the bottom box in the blogs becomes the output of...more
