wow yeah i have come a long way in just 5 months of tinkering with things.
Yes i figured it out. You need to add this exact line in your hooks in the file /inc/plugins/dvz_shoubox.php (i put it right after the other hooks)
$plugins->add_hook('dvz_shoutbox_start', ['dvz_shoutbox', 'load_window']);
// load Shoutbox window to {$dvz_shoutbox} variable
After this, you can put in {$dvz_shoutbox} variable in both your index page and in any custom pages
Why this is not in the settings i am not sure? It seems like it should be
An example would be our chat here on the index at the bottom
https://python-forum.io/index.php
as well as on a custom page by itself
https://python-forum.io/shoutbox.php
Does not seem to work, how did you built the shoutbox.php page?
Perhaps this Shoutbox is not comparable with this tutorial ->
https://coderwall.com/p/jnw-pg/mybb-custom-pages
this is the exact content of my page
shoutbox.php which resides in mybb root location
<?php
define('IN_MYBB', '1');
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'shoutnox.php');
require "./global.php";
$plugins->run_hooks("dvz_shoutbox_start");
add_breadcrumb("Shoutbox", "shoutbox.php");
eval("\$page = \"".$templates->get("shoutbox")."\";");
output_page($page);
and my
shoutbox template in global templates
<html>
<head>
<title>{$mybb->settings['bbname']} - Shoutbox</title>
{$headerinclude}
</head>
<body id="shoutbox">
{$header}
{$dvz_shoutbox}
{$footer}
</body>
</html>

One moment.
Holy God @metulburr
I love you so damn much!!! Can I send you wine or kisses or something?
Side note:
Is there a way with CSS that I can make the full screen one a little longer ?
On the index page I like the chat box with it's smaller height
However on the shoutbox page would it be possible to make that one a bit longer, to fill up more of the screen's height?
Height: 95vh: would be legit I suppose

our forum voted to remove the shoutbox from the index. Otherwise i was trying to do the same thing.
You cannot change one setting for the other, they are the same. And they both are one, showing on two different pages (at least as of now). However since i wanted it longer on the custom page, and shorter on the index, i was thinking of making an iframe to the custom page for the index page, and just restricting the length of the iframe. So you would extend the length in the shoutbox settings very long and in theory it would be long in the custom page, but restricted in the index to x length. Havent done it since we decided to rid the index of the shoutbox (AKA remove the shoutbox index variable), but i think that should work.

if you
feel the need
Sweet stuff again thanks so muchh!!
We just need a way to put a conditional for this:
<div class="window" style="height:{$mybb->settings[\'dvz_sb_height\']}px">
// This is a line in the plugin itself inc/plugins/dvz_shoutbox.php
//Essentially we want to achieve the below so the question becomes how to do a if statement in the template file for the page
IF PAGENAME = Livechat_full {
<div class="window" style="height:95vh;">
} else {
<div class="window" style="height:{$mybb->settings[\'dvz_sb_height\']}px">
}
I have that plugin, but for some reason it is not working, can the plugin code be so hard cache that ctrl+F5 is not enough to bust the cache?
As my page seems the same. I even changed <div class="window" style="height:{$mybb->settings[\'dvz_sb_height\']}px">
To <div class="window" style="height:95vh"> as a test, but the page doesnt seem updated.
whats not working? The plugin or that specific condition? Im not sure enough on that one on how to do that condition to make it work as you expect it to.

Both, I tried to change the code directly to height:95vh
That way I know it must work so I refresh the page use inspect element, but it still says height is 160px so it is as if the page as not re-loaded the plugin file if that makes sense at all?

did you change this in the install template of the plugin file itself, or the actual current dvz_shoutbox template in ACP?
It works for me if i change that line in ACP tmeplates. Unless its your template if condition is not correct?

you can try a different browser but i doubt it
