for those of you who don't know where to add "<sf_shoutbox>" look at this Image

Problem: the shoutbox won't appear.
FIX: make sure you have successfully transfered the plugin files and that "<sf_shoutbox>" has been written in the correct file.

Problem: the Shoutbox says "loading....".
FIX: make sure you have successfully transfered the java script file and that "<sf_shoutbox>" has been written in the correct file.

NOTE: this works only on SOME templates, not all

4a. Edit the template 'index' (under "Index Page Templates" template group), find:

Code:

{$header}
add below:

Code:

<sf_shoutbox>

4b. Edit the header template, and add <sf_shoutbox> somewhere towards the end, or wherever you would like the shoutbox to be displayed.

it keeps saying "loading" for ever. I followed intructions twice and doubled checked. I already tryed to reinstall it three times! But it still doesn't work. I'm using safari but I also tested it in FF without luck. I'm running MyBB 1.4.4. My URL is http://otakuflame.co.cc/forum it's on the buttom of the forum. (I also tried by putting it in the header, but it still doesn't work.)

I have it and activated it but don't see it anywhere also edited the template.

Shoutbox works fine, I inserted it in the beginning of footer.
I wonder (I'm PHP and MyBB lame) how can I enable shoutbox for members and hide from guests? What do I have to add?

P.S. I modified spicefuse_shoutbox.php inserting if($mybb->user['uid']) { ... in function sb_show_shouts($last_id = 0), but I'd like the whole shoutbox box to be hidden for guests. Into which function I have to add it?
