It would be nice if we had shoutbox!
-
yeh I agree ... we are talking about it now :)
-
Hi there !
I also agree! For some simple talk sometimes it would be nice
-
Why shout when you can post :P
-
Hi there !
For small talk wih the genius programmers and other people, not to spam around too much.
You all are so nice here :D , small talk would be fine. Do you not agree?
-
Spam is good :P
You'll have to wait to see if anyone else wants a shoutbox :)
-
Hi there !
Spam is good? ok :D
As I see we are at less three person who says at this thread site we wanna have a shout box 8)
At how many this is done?

We do currently have an IRC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat) chat room although its normally empty.
Server: irc.villageirc.net
Room: #simpleportal
-
shoutbox lol.. yeps add me to the list..
even tho i only pop in every so often! :P
-
Hi there !
irc .. I know, but most people do not use irc, a lot of people even don´t know what this is :whistle:
But web does everyone know :D and when I am on the site and see the shout box some posts, lot of people will stay longer or look more often.
It just rise the seeing per day of the persons.
-
Hi there !
Just tried irc ... just not as funny as a shout box >:-D so not a really option I think.
Do you just think about it??
-
Depends on what you need. IRC is real time chat with many features. Shoutbox/Chatbox is for short messages and mostly for fun (but not only).
IRC is great if there are many people on it - willing to talk. So yea, basically it's quite boring at the moment on #simpleportal but when more people will show there - it will be fun. So it's up to you! :)
-
I think people is always looking for fast and easy stuff... so a shoutbox will be perfect, just for fun... :P
and yeah, IRC is better but most people just dont know how to used or installed... :dead:
-
Hi there!
I know irc, but hasn´t used it for more than ten years ;-)
And most time there are too less people on the irc channel!
So just give us a shout box ;D
-
Hi there !
So I think time is coming for Jade to stop spaming as she wrotes above *Mike ducks down for safety now* and you test the upcoming shoutbox by SP 2.x directly on this page!
Yes, I found the hint:
What's in store for the future?
As of now, ..... and possibly a shoutbox. ... your feedback will guide the direction ....
And now I am the first *Mike be proud* :
When will come SP 2.3? With shoutbox integrated?
Just to beginn the rumors...
-
Shoutbox is a best way to interact with others when used with limits. Currently AJAX Chat is the best free shoutbox available :)
-
me want!! :D ;D 8)
-
To those of you who haven't noticed:
We now have a shoutbox block. :)
-
Hi there !
Wonderful, will be tested in one minute!
Also have seen: SP 2.2.1 :D
-
Hi there !
just something I have noticed: Can it be done that <enter> sends the text, so that I need not to get the mouse for sending?
Can the admin easily delete or edit the entrys?
The history is wonderful btw!
And Ajax would be perfect, but this is also a wish for other boxes from me ...
-
@c23_Mike,
Answers:
1) Not entirely sure what you mean.
2) Admin can delete entries from the history, although there is no ability to edit shouts at the moment. I don't see why it would be necessary though.
I know that everyone wants to know when the shoutbox block will be available, you'll have to wait and see. ;)
-
Just to make it clear: SimplePortal 2.2.1 will only be a bug fix release and there will not be *any* new features within, including shoutbox.
The shoutbox we use here is coded only for this web site. A shoutbox may be included in 2.3 version, and it would be a more advanced one if done.
Please do not use shoutbox for support requests; use the support boards instead.
----
c23_Mike, it already uses AJAX. It just doesn't have an auto refresh function, which I find useless.
-
Hi there !
My posts are just hints what I use at mine and why.
Edit because sometimes people write so many errors in grammar that I correct some of them. We had complaints in our forum about members, and they cannot better, they are happy when I correct it.
This is not really a top feature.
Delete entrys are necessary if someone writes bullsh...
Ajax automatic reload would be a nice option, as long it is already easy or partly implemented. At our site lot of member have only the site opened and look sometimes if there is something new, without reload even more comfort.
At 1) Now you have to write the text, then grab the mouse and click onto "Shout!" button. It would be a nice feature if instead klicking on the button a hit onto <enter> key would do that (for keyboard junkeys).
-
The enter button does work. :/
-
Is anyone testing the shoutbox on their portal for you?
-
Yes, you! ;)
-
lol guess you noticed I threw a paper dart at a member of Staff
What I meant was on their own forums portal.
-
I believe SP.net is the only place this shoutbox is being tested at the moment. As it gets further along in development, I'm sure it can be tested elsewhere.
-
Shame as I would of loved to help test it.
The portal we have has given our forum a fantastic look and the staff are very helpful when it comes to the various blocks and which is more suitable ( our most recent being the digital clock).
-
Hi there !
Tried several times, when I hit the <enter> the whole site reloads, but my text is not in the shoutbox. Have IE8.
-
i had nneos shoutbox working fine in a block but it seems to have been exploited with spam coming from somewhere i didn't find yet so i had to disable it.
-
Hi there !
I also have Neoneos Shoutbox on my site. You should only registered members allow to write in the box. And with SMF 2.0RC1 I had no bot until now. But for that I had to integrate a question in the registration process (add 2 and four, write answer in words, something like that).
Other question: What has be done with the shoutbox on this site?
-

You must bow down to Sinan's awesome power! Muahaha! ;P
On a more serious note, the more people who use it, the more testing we can get with it. We'll try to continue to make improvements to the shoutbox, and Sinan has hinted that it might appear in SimplePortal version 2.3. We'll see.
-
Hi there !
So maybe Sinans power is strong enough to get it here again? ;-)
But to see this in SP 2.3 sounds also very nice!
-

Sinan's power is unparalleled
:P
-
Hi there !
But why have they taken us the shoutbox? I thought Sinans power is unparalleled (whatever that means???) and Elli is cute ...
-
Should be fixed now.
-
Hi there !
ok all back, Sinans power is really unparalleled (and I also do not know what this is until now) and yes of course Elli is cute to fix this sooo fast!
Wow it was here all time but I have not seen it or not displayed it? Bcs there are shouts yesterday and today...
-
A permissions mix-up with the Community Support Helper's group.
-
ok all back, Sinans power is really unparalleled (and I also do not know what this is until now)
jejeje LOL is a brand new word !!!!!
actually.... nope....
is just a bad babelfish translation of "incomparable" this is what I got:
incomparable
matchless
unparalleled :P
surpassing
;P
