Title: Custom Shoutbox Page and Button
Post by: tombillings on February 23, 2011, 04:31:43 AM

Is there a way to create a custom php page to hold a shoutbox? If so, is there a way to add a button on my navbar to get to said page? SMF RC4 - SP 2.3.3
I'm not the greatest coder, so step by step instructions would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

download and install 6 Custom buttons / tabs and menu's from here
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2657

this will allow you to add your own links in navbar

as for the shoutbox page
go to
Admin » SimplePortal » pages » Add Page
name it what ever

then go to
Admin » SimplePortal » Shoutbox » Add Shoutbox
naming it chat or shoutbox or whatever

then go to
Admin » SimplePortal » Blocks » Add Block
select shoutbox
setup all settings
then click Advanced Options
and select your page

DONE YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
