IPB Shoutbox 1.4.1 and Staff Online Sidebar


James

Question

  • Administrator

I noticed that disabling BBCODE in the shoutbox doesn't stop people from actually using the BBCODE. How would I be able to make it from stopping BBCODE altogether?

 

It seems a lot of members of my forum like to post YouTube videos in the shoutbox so either disable the media BBCODE or all of it for ONLY the shoutbox.

 

Also, the Staff Online Sidebar block is causing the forum some trouble. For some reason it's repeating only a particular username, I don't know if it's because of his profile and there's something wrong with it or I'm missing something here.

Could it be that they are signed in over multiple devices?

I disabled the media tag for shoutbox only to be honest the bbcodes are there to customize your topics, posts etc...

How would I do that? I tried disabling BBCODE in the shoutbox settings and all it seemed to have done was disable the button for people to see what they can use lmao, quite pointless.

I'm not sure, that's a good question - I'll ask, thanks.

 

EDIT: I found out that he was signed in through different devices. How would I go about disabling it so it wouldn't duplicate the usernames?

Goto ACP > Look & Feel > Post Content > BBCode Management > Find Media > Edit it and find this a7a884964d6a6fa71070c0fe3d4fdd79.png and press select all of them apart from the very top one and shoutbox

I'm suggesting what PopPopPop said

Yes, I confirmed that he was using multiple devices but what I was wondering would it be possible to edit something so it doesn't duplicate usernames because of them actually being logged on different devices?

I would imagine you would have to manually modify the hook, or contact the developer.
