[nodebb-plugin-shoutbox] Shoutbox plugin

Schamper

@Mr_Waffle No and no - and it was my first plugin after a new vps(ubuntu 12.04)+nodeBB install. But i updated Redis later after i saw in the admin menu the current version (from 2.2).

staticDir is deprecated, use staticDirs instead

the same error for the RSS plugin at the nodebb start but thats works fine without any problem.

Can you send me your forum URL through chat? I can try to see where the issue is.

Issue :
shoutbox block is in the forum stats block

How can i fix it ?

Schamper

@toolito this is because I currently have a few hardcoded positions for the shoutbox. (Before .home, and before .footer-stats) In most themes this works nicely, except when there's a wrapper around any of those classes All of this will be resolved with this.

Updated with 0.0.7, small update

Use staticDirs
Add minver
Correctly check for anon... oops
Sound now only plays if the message is from another user
Other sound!
Use the templates system instead of being silly

So only some behind the scenes changes... This release somehow fixes the issue some users were having where the shoutbox wouldn't show on 0.3.2.

Awesome work @mr_waffle!

I would love love love to be able to set this as a side block like on my xenforo setup.

I know this would probably only work well on some themes though..

@jtarjanyi Once you have installed the plugin you will need to restart NodeBB. http://forum.eve-offline.hu/shoutbox should be available if the shoutbox is working but that link will 404.

I have problems with my shoutbox. (latest and older versions)

I can't send messages, and when the shoutbox appears, i see this message :
shout is null.PNG

In admin panel i can't delete all shouts (i'm using mongodb)

jtarjanyi

I tried to activate this plugin, but unfortunately it does not work
I not able to post any message.
My nodeBB version is 0.3.2 and Dark Rectangles Theme is used.

kelso

@jtarjanyi I had this issue initially, restart nodebb, then control-f5.. maybe change theme and change back.. im not actually sure what fixed it for me.. lol

Schamper

Guys, for those that are having issues getting this to work, can you try deleting the nodebb.min.js file in /public/src?

toolito

I just pull, and upgrade, it works fine

julian

Phew! Glad to hear it @toolito

toolito

Mmh same problem than before...

The shoutbox appears correctly each time i reload the page, but i can't send messages.

shout is null message in the console :
/plugins/shoutbox/js/shoutbox.js?v=v0.3.2-74-gbc10080
line 103 : var date = new Date(parseInt(shout.timestamp, 10));

Schamper

@toolito That is actually because somehow there's a null in your list of shouts... I'll add a check for that.

Any easy way to remove the GIST function? I tried commenting it out in the .tpl file, but it didnt seem to go away, even with a control-f5. Perhaps I need to restart node?

You indeed have to restart NodeBB for that. I'm thinking of a better "feature" feature soon.
