After 4 years still relevant. Same thing happens in my forum!
I find this function very unnecessary.
How can I force the shoutbox to stay alwayse open?
This is not helping. It is for the first visit only:
Quote:Shoutbox default status
Choose whether Shoutbox window should be expanded or collapsed by default.
Yes / No
Also what means "Yes"? Expanded or collapsed?
It is like a meme asking "Do you want this OR this" and you can answer "Yes" or "no". 
How to: On click to write the username on chat instead of taking to person profile?
Hello there. Thanks a lot for the plugin. Visitors can see the writing part, but an information message about their sign-up will appear for them to post. How can I do that?
Hi,
maybe this has been already discussed here.
I have DVZ shoutbox installed and wanted to make a warning, so I needed to change the #color and #style
is this doable and if so what sort of changes can we do for just a single shout…not the whole shoutbox?

By the way, I managet to deactivate this founction by changing this:
// functionality
toggle: function(status, remember) {
if (status == true) {
dvz_shoutbox.status = true;
$('#shoutbox').removeClass('collapsed');
$('#shoutbox .body').fadeIn();
if (dvz_shoutbox.frozen || !dvz_shoutbox.started) {
dvz_shoutbox.frozen = false;
dvz_shoutbox.loop();
}
} else {
dvz_shoutbox.status = false;
$('#shoutbox .body').stop(1).fadeOut(function() {
if (dvz_shoutbox.status == false) $('#shoutbox').stop(1).addClass('collapsed');
});
}
if (remember !== false) {
Cookie.set('dvz_sb_status', status ? '1' : '0');
}
dvz_shoutbox.runCallbacks('toggle', { status: status });
},
to this:
// functionality
toggle: function(status, remember) {
if (status == false) {
return;
}
if (status == true) {
dvz_shoutbox.status = true;
$('#shoutbox').removeClass('collapsed');
$('#shoutbox .body').fadeIn();
if (dvz_shoutbox.frozen || !dvz_shoutbox.started) {
dvz_shoutbox.frozen = false;
dvz_shoutbox.loop();
}
}
if (remember !== false) {
Cookie.set('dvz_sb_status', status ? '1' : '0');
}
dvz_shoutbox.runCallbacks('toggle', { status: status });
},
By this way the shoutbox stays ALWAYS open and you can not close it anymore!
But it will open for all people automaticly, even if the closed it the last time.
So nobody can click anymore and nobody can forget to open it!

Do I just need to overwrite the files for upgrade?

Installed this in our test board last night - which is sourced from live backups. Just over-wrote the files, and seemed to work OK. Just did basic testing, but not expecting any issues when we go live.
@Devilshakerz Yes I am all new to this and had it installed once before... I had to redo the entire site and forgot where to place the {$dvz_shoutbox} lol.... I read the readme and it says the index template... cannot for the life of me remember which one.. been a long week for me...
