Phpbb Mods

Recommended Posts

I want to place a mod on my PHPBB forum. I want to have a shout box, like that here on Xisto, where if you are not logged in it is hidden, but when you log in you have full access to view it, and to post inside it. Does anyone here know where I could find a mod like this, on http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ I have the Ajax Shout box installed, but I don;t know how I could change it to appear on every page of the forum (like here, on Xisto), instead of just inside the chat.php file. If anyone knows how I would go about finding this Mod, and installing it, please reply, here.

You might want to look at http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/1595 for your shout box: admittedly I haven't tried it but it look like it has everything that you need: the configurable viewing and editing.

Perhaps harder is removing the old chat box, but if you only have chat.php it shouldn't be too hard.

As for installing, all mods come with installation documents in the package, but I highly recommend you install "Easymod", available from http://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewforum.php?sid=&f=15 .
Mod's usually need you to do three things: install the files, edit previous files, and setup the the sql database. Easymod can automatically do the first two, saving upto hours on installing. All the rest requires is directing your browser to the sql install file!

Just PM me or post back if you need anymore help, but it really is quite easy :D
