Category: Shoutbox

Users and admin of an installation of Tiki 7.1 with Apache / mySQL / Fedora 14 observe that the timestamp of shoutbox messages sometimes change when they edit the messages.

There's no apparent pattern which would explain when or why only some messages are affected.

Some users of an installation of Tiki 7.1 report they're not warned about shoutbox messages being too long, thus their messages are simply cut off rather than they're warned.

This was particularly reported for Firefox 6.0.2 on Windows XP Pro.

Others observe the warning is properly displayed with Seamonkey, Epiphany, or Firefox on Fedora 14 Linux with the GNOME Desktop V2.

Entering http://www.foo.bar in the shoutbox correctly converts to [[Link], but entering http://foo.bar does not

Features Classification

There can currently only be one shoutbox to a site (at least by any research I have done). Personally, I think TikiWiki is the best poised software on the net to bring people's data back home by creating by giving the general public the ability to create their own sites instead of being data mined on the current social networking repositories. By enabling each family member to have their own shoutbox it would in a sense give each person their own "wall" feature on their own group pages.

I can see how putting in the ability to have multiple shoutboxes would also benefit company sites by giving each project team using the same TikiWiki site as their collaborative space to have their own rapid update system specific to their individual project needs.

By visitors subscribing to (watching) individual group page shoutboxes a "Twitter" like capability quickly begins to emerge. This is especially true when people begin watching each others shoutboxes this could become a platform for launching a broad feature set.

I'm sure the potential benefits wouldn't be limited to these scenarios alone.

The user's email address is clearly visible in the html source. Interestingly, user gern22000 is affected, admin is not:

Test user and password (if required): smarty

doesn't save messages like "Hi" etc.

After i install "Social Network Feature" and set a Facebook app/connection in the shoutbox module i'm not able anymore to remove an input. (tiki-index.php?shout_remove=nn)

I got a system error : An error occured while performing the request.
Suggesting to update the DB.

I have reproduce after SVN update and db update and db repair.
