vB Version: 3.5.0 RC2 Rating: (210 votes - 4.52 average) Installs: 1834
Released: 28 Jul 2005 Last Update: 23 Apr 2006 Downloads: 9294
Not Supported Uses Plugins Template Edits Additional Files  

Staff Edit/Update

I have released an updated version of this hack (version 2.0.1), this version fixes some security issues with this hack. All version prior to this one allow users to insert html in their shouts, this can cause problems with them using html that breaks the site layout or malicious javascript. Download the new zip file (vBshout_fixed.zip) and upload the new vbshout.php file to patch/upgrade. If you want to manual instructions they are in the zip file, in the file bugfixes.txt

Second Staff update

I've uploaded a new version of this hack, dubbed '2.0.2'. This one should fix the html injection issues without breaking special characters. To upgrade, download the new zip file and upload the new vbshout.php file.

Please note that this only fixes the html injection issues. I do not use this hack on my own forum (although I've tested this on a client's board) so I will not be fixing the server load issues. I suggest you do not install this hack if you can't deal with the extra server load, as it's rather intensive.

End staff edit

Well, been a while since I've been to vb.org and released anything, thought i'd break the trend and whip up something quick while I have a little spare time.

If they are actually in the shoutbox (on /forums/vbshout.php), everything is correct (the link is to /forums/vbshout.php).

This is a fresh install on a clean 3.5.0 (gold) board.

How do I fix this?

The main thing I need to know is how can I pic which smilies to show, instead of it picking them randomly?

I have looked into the issue with the Who's Online location error, and have come to the following conclusions.

There is nothing wrong with the code in the plugins from this hack that report the WOL locations. I have a few other hacks that include their own custom PHP files, and they all have plugins to the WOL system, and they all work fine. I've compared their WOL plugins to the WOL plugins from this hack, and aside from the filename and the text of the message, they are identical. The only difference between those hacks and this one is that this one actually has output from its external PHP file (vbshout.php) appear on the index.php page. The problem is that when you are on index.php, the WOL system thinks you are on vbshout.php, thus the plugin from this hack for WOL becomes active. So the only way to fix this problem, as far as I can figure out, is to find a way for index.php to make sure the WOL system knows it is index.php and not vbshout.php. I'll see what I can figure out.

Yes:

In the forumhome_vbshout_shout template, fine and remove this code:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

That's it!

It's working fine for me, but I thought I'd note the following (I assume it's the same in all versions):

If you send a message before it's finished loading, you're unable to send any more messages, and things screw up. It should be disabled until it's ready.
