Topic: shoutbox lets crash webserver/php

[ibrrorg]

ibrrorg, that fix would have fixed the issue. Can you provide me an admin account and FTP access via pm? I could check it for you.

Sure, I'll PM all the info to you.  Be advised I rolled back the changes that this thread advised to make as I wasn't sure if they would impact stuff in the future.

I woul've PM'd the info, but I have no way to as the option does not appear for me.  So, ibrrorg@gmail.com is my email.  Ping me and I'll get it to ya!

Thanks for taking the time to look around and I would appreciate any guidance!

[ibrrorg]

So, I am still patiently waiting on you to respond.  Do I simply need to hire this out?  I mean several days ago you offered to help me and now you don't seem interested.  Please advise as I would like to get it done and I have been unable to use the chat feature in your software for awhile now.

It is not that I'm not interested. Just I didn't have the time. I'll probably go over the support topics tomorrow. You can send me an e-mail at mehmed@samanyolufanlari.com if you can't pm me over here.

[ibrrorg]

Will do.  Simply appreciate you taking the time to look at it.  I wasn't sure what was going on.

I will send you all the contact info and take your time as I am thankful!

I had the exact same issue. I applied the fix and it works fine so ensure you have applied the fix correctly.

Hmnn, let's see:  cut, copy, paste using cPanel View.  It isn't rocket science.  Did it yet again and my system crashed YET AGAIN!  Reverted the code back and deleted chat and no problems.  This isn't on my end.  I just find it really odd that this error hit so many folks at the same time w/o any particular rationale.

Sent the admin details to SiNaN two days ago (can't PM so it was sent to your attached email) so I will write back if it gets fixed or hire it out.  Either way it is frustrating.

I have changed my cPanel as I can no longer risk the info in your custody SiNaN.  I feel five (05) days were long enough to look at something.  I'll hire out a temp fix and change portals when Dream comes out.

Perhaps it's an age difference; I was willing to pay and you said no you'll do it for free and then expected me to leave a Cpanel password out in the open for days on end.

Thanx for the help.

Real life gets in the way unfortunately. I only have access to internet at school and the time is very limited. A great majority of the code of SimplePortal was coded in those school computers BTW. And it has been more than a week since the last time I could make it to my home before the midnight.

I can understand how you feel and I'm sorry I couldn't help. I hope you can find someone to fix it for you. You could also check the Donator Program. Although it is not an offical promise, they all got responses within 24 hours and all of them had their issues fixed. And good luck with your new system, if you are changing portals.

ibrrorg - when receiving free assistance, I would caution on the side of patience. Competent people that freely offer their time are rewarded solely with the satisfaction of helping others. 
Since I see that the issue was resolved for some people with the given fix, I am hazarding a guess that you in fact did not apply the code properly.
Why not try another option... Disable the Simple Portal shoutbox and install the yshout that it is based on. A simple edit to your all your themes index templates and adding a php block is all that is necessary. This is how mine is set up and I have no issues with it at all (plus my error log is clean).

Here is a link: CLICK HERE

This version has most of the same features less the displayed bbc's and sound. (bbc works just no button to display them)

The link I gave you includes the package and instructions on how to edit it for portal block installs.

If you need guidance to work this with Simple Portal just leave me a PM here or on my site.
This version has a multiple style edit for the purpose of side blocks (via part or all of url).
If you are going to use side blocks for this mod I suggest setting it to reverse.

Question:
Is this issue solved in the new SP 2.3.2 in combination with SMF2 RC3 ??

Just happened a crash in that combination, so it isn't solved, even if the code in Subs.php is now right as in the below post.
