  • {OCS}MasterSeal: I know this SB isnt' for support, but I just have a general question. Who would I contact to find out where SP stores its block info? Is it DB driven or files? I searched the site but came up with nothing. probably my fault any insight is appreciated.

Multiple Shout box text lines?
« on: July 09, 2015, 09:37:06 PM »
Can the shout box text line be changed to allow for entry of several lines of text instead of the one scrolled line of text, or is there another shout box available that would be able to do this?

To achieve this, you'll have to replace the <input type="text"> that we use for the shout content with a <textarea></textarea> tag. It'll probably require plenty of edits to shoutbox related code. Unfortunately, I'll not be able to provide those at this time. I'll be moving this to Custom Coding board.
And slowly, you come to realize... It's all as it should be...

I checked it to see how difficult it would be to do what you want and it seems to be working with something along these lines:

Themes/default/PortalShoutbox.template.php

Code: (Find) [Select]
<div class="shoutbox_input smalltext">
<input type="text" name="new_shout" id="new_shout_', $shoutbox['id'], '" class="shoutbox_input sp_float_left input_text"', $context['browser']['is_ie'] ? ' onkeypress="if (sp_catch_enter(event)) { sp_submit_shout(' . $shoutbox['id'] . ', \'' . $context['session_var'] . '\', \'' . $context['session_id'] . '\'); return false; }"' : '', ' />
<input type="submit" name="submit_shout" value="', $txt['sp_shoutbox_button'], '" class="sp_float_right button_submit" onclick="sp_submit_shout(', $shoutbox['id'], ', \'', $context['session_var'], '\', \'', $context['session_id'], '\'); return false;" />
</div>';

Code: (Replace) [Select]
<div class="shoutbox_input smalltext">
<input type="submit" name="submit_shout" value="', $txt['sp_shoutbox_button'], '" class="button_submit" onclick="sp_submit_shout(', $shoutbox['id'], ', \'', $context['session_var'], '\', \'', $context['session_id'], '\'); return false;" style="float: right; width: 50px; height: 4.5em; outline: none;" />
<div style="margin-right: 60px;"><textarea name="new_shout" id="new_shout_', $shoutbox['id'], '" rows="3" style="width: 100%;"></textarea></div>
</div>';

It may need some fine tuning to make everything look perfectly sized and aligned, so good luck with that!
