Posted January 9, 201015 yr Hi Brandon, Thanks for setting up the IPB version of setup. I like you, have moved one of my forums from vB to IPB. I thought I'd point out there is a page loading error on the home page. It's a java error related to the shout-box. I kept getting the same error myself whenever I enabled the shoutbox on the sidebar. I thought I'd point it out, if you figure out a fix, let me know! -Chris

Thanks -Brandon Hi Brandon - thanks for the warm welcome - glad to be here. :) The error appears on the main page, or on pages where the shoutbox is. The page still loads, I just get the dreaded yellow asterick box on the message box on my browser. I.E. 8 Here is the exact message details... Webpage error details User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; GTB6.3; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.30; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.648; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729) Timestamp: Sun, 10 Jan 2010 19:29:19 UTC Message: 'null' is null or not an object Line: 522 Char: 4 Code: 0 URI: http://ipbwebmaster.com/public/js/shoutbox.js?load=ajax I had the same problem on my new IPB site, so I made the choice to disable the shoutbox on the forum main page until a fix is found. -Chris
January 10, 201015 yr Author can you take a screenshot please thx Hi Brandon,There isn't much to be seen - but the screen shot is attached nevertheless. -Chris
January 10, 201015 yr oh, so the forums works fine but that error message I thought you were saying the shoutbox didn't display at all.
January 10, 201015 yr Author oh, so the forums works fine but that error message I thought you were saying the shoutbox didn't display at all. The shoutbox displays fine - what happens is that when it's enabled, the is an error message loading the home page. It still loads, just with an error. I had the same problem on my site, so disabled the shoutbox on the home page until I can find a solution. http://ipbwebmaster.com/public/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif-Chris
January 13, 201015 yr Author Brandon, What I did on mine, was I left it running but just on it's own page. So on my site, what I have is a link on the nav bar, that when clicked on, takes a user to a seperate shoutox page. And the shoutbox seems to run fine and without page loading errors, when it's running this way. http://ipbwebmaster.com/public/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif -Chris
