Removed shoutbox. Problem fixed.

Thanks for trying to help.
Its been nothing but a security risk from the day It started and now it don't work. I pride myself on having sites with features that work with no dead links.

A few answers for now from my side:

The theme I'm using was based initially on the Cerberus theme by Bloc as far as I know, so it could be that there are remnants of this theme in the modified version, which now are still there and cause a problem. There is a file called "TPortalBlocks.template.php" in the theme's folder, but that's about all I can see regarding TPortal files which are not in the default folder.

P.S. I very much appreciate any help People love the ShoutBox and TinyPortal in general, it is a fantastic tool!

If you rename the TPortalBlocks.template.php file in the theme you use and get the errors in, do you still have the error showing up ? (if you rename it, it will fetch the file from the default theme instead )

*haha* That worked, Mrs G6!!!Ã,  :laugh:Ã, 

Still checking if things work ok now with the rest of TinyPortal... - But many thanks for that hint, it's great to see guys trying to help until the issue is solved.

Admin/Configuration/ServerSettings/ uncheck persistant connection if it is checked
Admin/Configuration/ServerSettings/Caching        Turn off server Caching
Admin/Configuration/ServerSettings/Feature Configuration/  Turn Off  "Enable local storage of cookies"
Admin/Configuration/ServerSettings/Feature Configuration/ Turn Off "Use database driven sessions"

Save the settings, go in your

Admin/Maintenance/Forum Maintenance/ Then "Recount all forum totals and statistics." and "Optimize all tables to improve performance."

Then clear your local Temp internet files, Cookies, and Cache

 :up: OK although I threw a growly fit, I have been watching this thread. Sorry I was having a bad day.

Mrs G6  Thankyou for posting what the problem could be. In checking my theme folder yesterday I didn't have a TPortalBlocks.template.php file in the theme. On checking again today I had a brain wave and enlarged the window in my FTP program and there it was, hidden as the last on the list.

I renamed it and now the site is using the default TPortalBlocks.template.

And the shout box works  :up:  :up:

Thankyou...and forgive me for my attitude.
Cheers
