So far it's good.  Not sure if it uses ajax?   Just like our TP shoutbox our was never open to guest or ungrouped members   :up:

Here's a screenshot of the ShoutMix box.

I think I may use the shoutmix one but there is a cpl of things I would like to ask first.

  • Is there a way I can make this shoutbox or another autorefreshing shoutbox use the same smilies as I have in my simple machines/ with the same codes?
  • Is there some code I can edit or add to some file to make the Tinyportal shoutbox autorefresh.

    Also... In another tinyportal version, the original shoutbox can remain normal without autorefresh. But you can create a block that is called Chat that you can easily make by checking in the radio button when creating a new bloc. :D It could look the same as the shoutbox now but can autorefresh without annoyance and without refreshing the entire page ;)

Hey Brian,

  To answer you questions:

- yes you could use some of the same smileys from your forum.  you have to add them through the shoutmix control panel and it will show up in your new shoutbox.  you can use the same or similar code, but it does work like the forum.  In the forum you do something like this :smileycat:  but with shoutmix you just type in 'smileycat' or whatever code name you gave it.
- not sure about the TP questions.  i'll leave that to the TP staff

  I have been using it for the last 24 hours and love it!  it autofreshes without having to refresh the entire page.  I upgraded to the premium version so i wouldn't have advertisements and would have more flexibility in configuration, storage, etc.

  I sent an email to the developer asking if he could integrate our SMF member database with this shoutmix box so people wouldn't have to input their username.  I also asked if there was a way to add sound so you know when someone left a shout.

Is Shoutmix remotely hosted??..if so, you cannot change smilies, but if it's a php script you can change
I have become comfortably numb!

Hopefully they integrate it for smf or maybe someone can help me with modifying the existing shoutbox ;)

It is remotely hosted and you can disable the default smileys that it comes with and add your own custom smileys.  In the first attachment that last 6 smileys are ones I added.  The ones above that are the default ones.

Another cool feature is that you can undock the shoutbox as in the second attachment.
