The legacy version does, which is linked to in the first post.  I don't think the latest version does.  

Well I definitely got it from here http://mods.mybb.com/view/dvz-shoutbox

Oddly enough when I search for http://ajax.googleapis.com out of <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script> it says that the website does not exist...Also having that code in the headerinclude has no effect whatsoever.

Since that website "didn't exist I tried to put <script type="text/javascript" src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/jscripts/dvz_shoutbox.js"></script> in the haderinclude, but again, no change.

Maybe it has something to do with the theme??? idk DX

I'm pretty sure you are required to add JQuery if you are not using it for anything else. If you type http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqu...ery.min.js in it will definitely bring up JQuery code minified too.

Is your server having trouble communicating with the external cdn?

Well I mean, I'm not getting an error message or anything...I'm just not getting anything at all Which is to say that whether or not I have

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

in the headerinclude it affects it in no way @_@

It still functions as a shoutbox it's appearance is just messed up

Which makes me think that this is a css error, but at this point I just can't tell.

Also when I tried a new theme it looked exactly how it should it just wouldn't function.

It's not the server that communicates with the CDN but the browser, if we're talking about jQuery.

It's probably a CSS conflict - your style might be using the same class names as the Shoutbox does. For example, some themes already have a .panel definition in their global.css that affects also the Shoutbox elements. It can be fixed by changing the name the style is using to another (in CSS and proper templates).

That would be a JavaScript-related issue (like missing jQuery library).

You were completely right, my theme was using a panel definition which I removed for now (I'll add it in again later with a different definition)

As for the other themes I probably placed the jquery library in the wrong spot, I'll work on that later as it isn't my default theme anyway xP

Works like a charm now thank you!

Oh, that should be a duh for me. My bad.

/ban <username>
/cleanall [REMOVES ALL SHOUTS]

Or so lol, or does it have this already?

Actually it has, but in a more GUI-like form instead of typing the commands: you can input the banned user IDs and purge messages from Archive mode.

This maybe a silly question but how do I ban people, i went to archive and it say enter there ids, I tried the IP which shows in the shout box and I tried there username but none worked. is it a certain way of getting there IDS thanks.

Can't send any shouts. We have renamed index.php into forum.php

You can get them from links MyBB is generating, for example the link to my profile here is

http://community.mybb.com/user-47371.html

so my user ID (UID) here is 47371.

Changing the filename doesn't seem to have any influence (still works for me). Make sure you have installed the Shoutbox correctly and you don't have any JavaScript conflicts in your browser's console.
