- Requires
- Vanilla 1
Other Requirements:
JQuery plugin by [-Stash-]
http://vanillaforums.org/addon/231
(If you use 'Shout' TabStrip (menu item) then you're advised switch SmoothPageScroll off, there is a conflict)
This plugin changes a single discussion into a simplistic shoutbox; adds (optional) a new menu item linking to the discussion.
Settings:
- how many shouts are visible
- shout age threshold
- menu tabstrip item visibility
Shoutbox checks once in a while if there are any new shouts (default: 60s) via jQuery xhr call.
To do - stuff I may do if I have time (you're encouraged to help):
- Menu item to show the number of unread shouts, if shoutbox is not visible on the current page...
- Shoutbox to set all posts in the shoutbox discussion as read.
