Title: TP1.0 beta 4 shoutbox not displaying shouts?
Post by: miwashi on September 21, 2009, 10:23:25 AM
I've set it up, and the shoutbox shows fine. However any new shout I key in does not appear at all. Going to the admin panel does that they weren't even stored.

Can I know if I need to set some file permissions to store the shouts?

When looking at your front page, I can see 1 test shout fine as a guest. Also stored in the "Last 50" shouts, accessed next to the Shout button.

Yes, that was from a few years ago with TP0.98, I think. After I upgraded it doesn't work anymore. If you post a new shout it won't register.

Are you getting any errors in the forum error log? If nothing there, how about the server access/error logs?

That could be the problem, the shoutbox is a module. Did you get any errors when installing or upgrading TP? Did you continue with the installation? I would run through the manual install guide and check all the files were edited correctly. Pay particular attention to the TPmodules.php file.

Thank you.. what I did was I used SMF's package manager to upload the zip of tinyportal, so I thought everything would be automated.

Anyway I manually unzipped the archive and ran tp-install.php, and it created a bunch of new tables. This doesn't help however, the shouts are still not being stored. Is smileys_enabled a new table field? Is it created by tp-install.php?

Ok I did some testing and apparently the problem is the logging in.
I have 'allow guest shouts' set to onin the admin panel.

However the shouts are only stored if I am a logged in user. If I am not logged in the shout does not appear. Is this normal? Is the shoutbox still in development?

These links might help:

You need to go through the files and make sure they are correct.

Since you have made some changes, clear the error log, make a new test shout, go back and check the error log again.

The Shoutbox module is not currently being developed. Development is being focused towards TP 2 and updating themes.
