It would be nice if we had a little more information about your site in order to be able to help you easier as Ken suggested.

However, I guess I will ask this one question ~ Can't you just create another Shoutbox block?  Your Shouts will still be there, just in the new block.

Zarprime, I deleted the block by accident when I was fooling around with the Panels And Blocks, when I went to add it back it didn't work, this is what I did -

Went to Panels and Blocks and clicked on the Blocks tab
Then clicked "add block" to the right panel
Typed in Shoutbox for the title
Click the option for "Single Shout Written by Bloc" clicked save
selected the settings on the next page - clicked save

and when I look at the right panel on the front page the box for the shoutbos is there but no shoutbox in it.

Well after some more tweaking I finally got it, I forgot to choose TP Module, and then the module that appears.

selected the settings on the next page - clicked save

That block you selected is a php code block that Bloc created just to show the last Shout someone made.  See what it looks like on my test site (http://talesofthehavenexpanse.com/smf2test/index.php) in the top of the right panel.

That's not the full Shoutbox.  For the Full Shoutbox, select TPModule as the block type and save.  When the screen comes back up, make sure that Shoutbox is selected.  That'll do it.

Edit:  Aha, you figured it out.  Good job. Topic marked solved.
