[nodebb-plugin-shoutbox] Shoutbox plugin

[chas]

Thanks @Mandosis , @Schamper any sign of an official fix soon to the forums dissapearing? nearly been a month

[Schamper]

@chas I've been swamped with personal stuff. I'll have some more time soon to work on NodeBB plugins.

[jarey]

@Schamper just bought you a beer to support this plugin. Congratulations for it. I'm planning to use it on my site.

I really like the concept but this plugin has a lot of issues... First there's no way to prevent spamming shouts (limit shout per 10 seconds / minute). Second, disabling the options (create gists, view archive, report bug) in the admin CP doesn't work and it doesn't change despite saying success for saving. Third, checking sound/notification seems to work but it says "Error saving settings!" in red when I check them.

Without these fixes I can't use the plugin

Nothing that I don't already know, really. I know that there's currently no way to prevent spam. I've added it to the list

Save settings don't work, when a user is not logged in index page says: " Internal error... invalid data... and bla... bla... bla." Please update this for a beer.

@DevPre see https://github.com/Schamper/nodebb-plugin-shoutbox/issues/72 for a quick hacky fix for the isse when logged out.

Latest Master breaks this plugin - crashes nodebb after a category is chosen, weird.

[chas]

I changed to 0.7.x but still shoutbox is crashing, any idea how to completely uninstall a plugin.

I tried npm rm nodebb-plugin-shoutbox but whenever i reinstall it remembers all my settings

Tried again and fiddled with the settings, and it worked now

[Scuzz]

Delete the plugin dir from nodebb_modules dir

You can also run ./nodebb reset plugin="nodebb-plugin-shoutbox"

[a_5mith]

./nodebb reset plugin="nodebb-plugin-shoutbox

When I turn on the plugin, unregistered users can no longer see the content of forum, because of alert "Oops ! Something gone wrong"

@leksar Check out - https://github.com/Schamper/nodebb-plugin-shoutbox/issues/72

[leksar]

@Scuzz Thanks, found someone's fork. will follow it.

[Marc Boisvert-Dupras]

This plugin is honestly one of the best out there in my opinion, it's a shame it's not updated more often!

It seems like no one can edit shouts, not even admins. I'm using the latest master from git.

I have the same problem.

[Scuzz]

The current most stable version we have installed is 0.2.2 but this is only really stable on 0.6 version of NodeBB.

I have show @Schamper your interest in this plugin being updated but he is currently quite busy.

[wellenreiter]

Thanks a lot

[jolly4real]

can you also add a admin settings where you can color the background of a admins user so players in the shoutbox knows its an official person in the shotubox

You can already do this with custom CSS on your forum. All the admin messages have a .admin class.
