Looking for a decent shoutbox for tp as mine doesn't appear to scroll even after turning the option on? I also found one on here but that was painfully slow at refreshing, can anyone help?
Thanks
SMF has a shoutbox, Ultimate Shoutbox. Not sure if it scrolls.
So, why doesn't your TP Shoutbox scroll?
I use ShoutMix - http://www.shoutmix.com/main/ It's free. The Premium version $20/year comes without advertisement and is faster a refreshing.
You can see an example on my blog - http://www.myhushspace.com/
On my forum I have it on a right block. I'd send you a link, but the shoutbox is only visible to members.
Yeah i have shoutbox for smf but wanted one so i can use as a centre block for tp.
Im not sure why tp shoutbox doesnt scroll?
Thanks for the replies guys :up:
Well, you have options. But you've told us nothing that would help us help you.
Errors in the logs? Does it work in the Default theme? What browser are you using? Does the marquee function in SMF posts work? A link to your site?
Thats even if you want the TP shoutbox, or a third party shoutbox..

Hey thats quite a neat shoutbox. Do you have to keep entering your username everytime you access this shoutbox?
One of my sites has this one setup in a center block as a 'chat' block and it works OK.

I find the one on SMF mods works the best, just cant get it to work with some of my new themes... guess I should ask how to do that sometime

That looks cool but does this not mean that guests or anyone for that matter can make a shout?? Not what i was looking for, more exclusive to members
I would think if you use kens shout box, you could make the block not open to guests

Yes guests can use it if its visible to them, its temporally set for guest views so that you can see it... I'll un-check the guest views soon.
Ps: Just discovered that its no longer supported by the author, it works OK for me but the no support part must always be considered.
Thatnks for the feedback guys
On another note, if your patient enough to wait for TP1.0, there will be 2 shoutbox modules released with it, a simple version like whats on here, and a more advanced version. Not currently ready for preview but highly editable and designed for both narrow side blocks and expanded wide center blocks.
