Title: Shoutbox - Link names to profiles
Post by: Burpee on February 10, 2005, 12:02:12 PM
When viewing the shoutbox you see the names of all the users. It'd be quite nice if those names were linked to their profiles as well.

Yes, that can be done. The shoutbox will have a feature to allow guests to shout as well ( not implemented yet) so that have to be taken into account.

I'm assuming that since your shoutbox is working on this site that you didn't put it in your beta release? I say that because mine does not work.

Yes, it should be in. How does it not work...it don't show, or it does not save the shouts?

My shoutbox doesn't work either and I don't know why!  Anyone have any ideas? I am logged in when I try this.

Mine is fresh install too so I am confused. Is there something I should of done to enable it? I hope it's not something stupid that I could of done myself!

Here's my testing site. http://ichbin.is-a-geek.com
You can see that when you put in a shout and hit the button, nothing gets printed to the shoutbox.

I think I have located the problem..it seems to need one more line in one of the modifications:

- Open up index.php in the root folder of the forum and find:

                'tpadmin' => array('TPortalAdmin.php', 'TPortalAdmin'),
                'forum' => array('BoardIndex.php', 'BoardIndex'),

...then add this line right under those:

                'tpmod' => array('TPmodules.php', 'TPmodules'),

I think that should do it. I will update the archive right away with this.

Excuse me, Bloc, I've try to show you how shoutbox response to the bbcode pre which can extend it display. And I think that really need some pre-cautions about mis-usage like spams without character limits.

Yes, I saw it, and a great demonstration too. :) I will definitely change some of the code there. As I wrote in the shoutbox, only smilies are really needed. Plus a limit for one single shout.

My shoutbox only links the username for the last shout. Not sure why.

Yes, I see it. Strange, I can't seem to duplicate this. Did you use a fresh install of TP beta5 or the update from beta4?
Title: Re: Shoutbox - Link names to profiles
Post by: borgBOB on March 18, 2005, 08:13:01 PM
I used the update from v0.4 beta. I also applied the TP Bugfix-beta5.zip

I updated to v0.5beta 3-17-2005, early in the day.

I have noticed as new 'shouts' are entered, the links work. User name is a clickable link.

Good... :) I did not realize that it had "old" shouts , they don't contain the links naturally, since it wasn't saved prior to beta5.
