Print Page - Shout Box Block

Hello, I would like to install a shoutbox on my SMF forum (2.0b4) and have it display in a block set to "all pages" in SP 2.1. Since this (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=585 (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=585)) is the only shout box for smf 2.0 I am limited to using this. I have an idea on how to do this but then again I am an idiot, I am thinking I just install the shoutbox and take the changes it would make to my theme and insert them into a php block? Am I way off?

Ok I tried that and it didnt work, I am missing something essential.

heres my php block contents:

Code: [Select]

// YSHOUT HERE - <head> code
   global $boardurl,$shoutFile;
   $shoutFile='home';
   $scripturlparsed = parse_url($scripturl);
   $scriptpath=isset($scripturlparsed['path'])?$scripturlparsed['path']:'/';
   $args='';
   foreach($_GET as $key => $value) // passthrough $_GET
      $args.='&'.urlencode($key).'='.urlencode($value);
   echo '
   <script src="',$boardurl,'/yshout/js/moo.ajax.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
   <script src="',$boardurl,'/yshout/settings.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
   <script type="text/javascript"><!-- // --><![CDATA[
   window.onload=function(){loadChat();};
   var shoutFile="',$shoutFile,'";
   var yshout_php="',$scriptpath,'?yshout',$args,'";
   // ]]></script>
   <script src="',$boardurl,'/yshout/js/yshout.js?July062008" type="text/javascript"></script>
   <style type="text/css">
      #yshout {
         font-size: 10px;
         overflow: hidden;
      }
      #yshout #yshout-toollinks { /* tool links (History, Commands, etc.) */
      }
      #yshout #shouts { /* main shouts area */
      }
      #yshout .shout { /* one shout */
         margin: 0 0 0; /* Top Bottom Linespacing */
         line-height: 1;
      }
      #yshout .shout-timestamp {
         font-style: normal;
         font-weight: normal;
      }
      #yshout .shout-adminlinks { /* del and ban buttons */
         font-size: 6pt;
         color: #141414;
      }
      #yshout #shout-form {
         margin: 0;
         padding: 0;
      }
      #yshout #shout-form fieldset {
         border: none;
      }
      #yshout #forum-name {
         width: 70px;
         margin-right: 5px;
      }
      #yshout #shout-text {
         width: 310px;
         margin-right: 5px;
      }
      #yshout #shout-button {
         width: 55px;
      }
      #yshout .shout-invalid { /* invalid shout (shout textbox) */
         background: #FFFDD1;
      }
   </style>';
   // YSHOUT END - <head> code

This is solved, here is my current php block contents:

Code: [Select]

   // If we're in a board, or a topic for that matter, the index will be the board's index.
   if (!empty($context['current_board']))
      echo '
   <link rel="index" href="' . $scripturl . '?board=' . $context['current_board'] . '.0" />';   

// YSHOUT HERE - <head> code
   global $boardurl,$shoutFile;
   $shoutFile='home';
   $scripturlparsed = parse_url($scripturl);
   $scriptpath=isset($scripturlparsed['path'])?$scripturlparsed['path']:'/';
   $args='';
   foreach($_GET as $key => $value) // passthrough $_GET
      $args.='&'.urlencode($key).'='.urlencode($value);
   echo '
   <script src="',$boardurl,'/yshout/js/moo.ajax.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
   <script src="',$boardurl,'/yshout/settings.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
   <script type="text/javascript"><!-- // --><![CDATA[
   window.onload=function(){loadChat();};
   var shoutFile="',$shoutFile,'";
   var yshout_php="',$scriptpath,'?yshout',$args,'";
   // ]]></script>
   <script src="',$boardurl,'/yshout/js/yshout.js?July062008" type="text/javascript"></script>
   <style type="text/css">
      #yshout {
         font-size: 10px;
         overflow: hidden;
      }
      #yshout #yshout-toollinks { /* tool links (History, Commands, etc.) */
      }


      #yshout #shouts { /* main shouts area */
      }
      #yshout .shout { /* one shout */
         margin: 0 0 0; /* Top Bottom Linespacing */
         line-height: 1;
      }
      #yshout .shout-timestamp {
         font-style: normal;
         font-weight: normal;
      }
      #yshout .shout-adminlinks { /* del and ban buttons */
         font-size: 6pt;
         color: #141414;
      }
      #yshout #shout-form {
         margin: 0;
         padding: 0;
      }
      #yshout #shout-form fieldset {
         border: none;
      }
      #yshout #forum-name {
         width: 50px;
         margin-right: 5px;
      }
      #yshout #shout-text {
         width: 182px;
         margin-right: 5px;
      }
      #yshout #shout-button {
         width: 55px;
      }
      #yshout .shout-invalid { /* invalid shout (shout textbox) */
         background: #FFFDD1;
      }
   </style>';
   // YSHOUT END - <head> code

   // YSHOUT HERE - shoutbox code
   global $txt,$context,$boarddir;
   if(allowedTo('yshout_view'))
   {
      echo '<br /><b>',$txt['yshout_shoutbox'],'</b><br /><br />';
      echo '<div id="yshout">';
      echo '<br /><b>',
      include_once($boarddir.'/yshout/yshout.php');
      echo '</div>';
   }
   elseif($context['user']['is_guest'])
      echo $txt['yshout_no_guests'];
   // YSHOUT END - shoutbox code

Works for me on SMF 2.0RC1... Only thing is I wish the font of the shout was a wee bit larger....
