can u provide code for testing or as demo?
What do you mean?
I brought this and installed on my server and on last step, i get this error “Creating tables….. Creating table “sb_shouts”...OK All tables have been created. Creating folder “lib”...ERROR: Unable to create “lib” folder ” and it stops !
Can you please send me a standalone version which i can install manually ? Also, please do tell us what this error is about so it may help others .
Thanks for purchasing! Write me an email via my profile that I could send you the Shoutbox without the installer.
Hi, I can’t install it. I get the “Unable to connect to the database, please check your configuration.” error. Tried to update the code and include the DB details manually at line 113 but with no luck.
Please provide the script without the installer. thanks!!!!

Hello there, bought this but I am unable to install it due to HostGator not allowing 777 on the chmod settings. Could you possibly help me? Thanks much.
You got an answer.
I really like this shoutbox, but I need a .NET solution. How much of the code is PHP and what level of effort would required for me to convert this code to .NET?
The backend which interact with the database is PHP powered. I don’t know .NET, but I would say it wouldn’t be such complicated to rewrite it in .NET.
if you make this with responsive layout, your gonna be rich.
Hi,
any plans of adding multi line support. Can press CTRL + ENTER to make new line?
any plans of adding font control (font selection and size change)?
Thanks
Currently not, but it’s not hard to extend the script. Also I could do that extra work if you want to have it.
Hello, I purchased shoutbox and I am unable to install the script due to permission restrictions with my web hosting. Would you please be able to send the script without the installer?
I tried to message you via the contact form on your profile but I got a message saying your email no longer exists.
Thanks, -Nick
Thanks for purchasing 
I would send you the script without the installer,
just try it again to send me the mail (I fixed my mail-server).
I am a provider of live video to many customers and want to integrate this into their channel pages. Can I use a single install on multiple pages (all on the same domain name) without chats showing up from other user pages?
You need to install it on multiple channels or customize it to have on install with many “channels”.
Awsome, thanks !
Is it possible to restrict some nicknames ? (admin, moderator, zamp, etc..)
Thanks for the purchasing !
This feature is not built-in but it possible with a few, new lines of code.
Contact me via mail (via my profile) and I’ll code it for you
Hello, I just bought the shoutbox and I have a question: how to put a newline automatically posts (all 20 characters.)? This is to ensure that messages are too long to display correctly.
thank you in advance.
Too long messages are automaticly splitted.
If you want to change the chars to split it, go to line 326 in the file lib/shoutbox.class.php.
This script need a admin panel where you can show ip, and ban users. + delete shout and prune all shouts.
Looks sweet but how do I change the colors to make it fit to my site?
EDIT ; Well, I won’t mess to much around with it if you could be nice and send me an modified version throw my profile.
I wan’t the backcolor changed to: #191919 and the other colors should be matching.. Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.
Okay did you solve “the problem” yourself?
Nope, the colors won’t change..
OK, write me a mail through my profile which a detailed description which colors you want to change and I help you
Hi, I have this shoutbox as version 1.1. How to update it to 1.2? Reinstalling does not help. Thanks for your answer
The reinstalling should do the job. Could you send me your new installed (from 1.2) index.php via mail that I could check it?
Hi NellyB,
I read Documentation, I want to Customize script, but can you explain that :
private $_options = array(
'db_server' => 'localhost',
'db_charset' => 'utf8',
'db_user' => 'your_db_username',
'db_password' => 'your_mysql_passwort',
'db_name' => 'db_table_name',
'db_prefix' => 'your_prefix_',
'charset' => 'utf-8',
'heading' => 'YourName - Shoutbox',
'refresh' => 2.5,
'spam_protect' => 1,
'enable_bbcode' => true,
'enable_smilies' => true
);
I understand that but those two parameters : db_prefix and db_name !!!
db_prefix is just if you want to install multiple shoutboxes.
db_name is the name of the database.
OK, Thanx NellyB for info, But why this ShoutBox need Database !!
Because it needs to store the messages somewhere and file based storage would be too slow 
OK thatx for reponce, Im just asking bcz I want to integrated it with Joomla… Users can Chat without New nickname… I think you understand
NellyB – How can i contact you? I haven’t purchased the item yet, but want to make sure i can get everything needed.
Simply via my profile: The contact form.
Hi Nelly, great script!!!
One quick question, how can I offset the timestamp of the server in the script?, right now we are running 2 hours behind of my local time that’s show on the shoutbox.
Regards
date_default_timezone_set('America/Los_Angeles');
Here’s the list of supported timezones: http://php.net/manual/en/timezones.php
I want to buy this, but can you help me integrate into my current platform? Also, can I have the bot auto post messages of what’s happening at my site? Can there be colors too?
That’s all possible ! If you want all of them implemented, contact me via email and we’ll discuss everything (else).
I puchased this yesterday and installed on my local development machine and the install ran perfectly (not a single error reported, green ok’s all the way). I checked the database and the table has been created and all appears correct.
I launched the page and up came the login page asking for name and I entered this and hit logon and the little loading bar came up and then disappeared and the shoutbox area remained white?.
I rebooted the server and tried several times but with the same result each time. I checked the database and no enteries have been made to it?
When monitoring it using the developer tools in chrome after the logon button is pressed it calls the ajax.php file and I get a 200 ok code back but do not get a response it appears from the DB (I checked the DB login setup and this is as per the install when the table was created).. I do not appear to be getting any error from the code..
Have you an idea of what might be causing this?
Could you send me your shoutbox URL via email that I can have a look on it?
