I noticed that it is available so I have installed and enabled it on my test forum (testcb1300.createmybb4.com). But when I go to the forum it doesn't look any different (I'm using the default theme).
Do I have to do anything else to start using it?
cheers
Alan

Should work fine if you add the CSS code to the end of your global CSS and then add the {$dvz_shoutbox} variable to your index template.
If you want the shoutbox at the top of your homepage your index template should look something like this:
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>{$mybb->settings['bbname']}</title>
{$headerinclude}
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
lang.no_new_posts = "{$lang->no_new_posts}";
lang.click_mark_read = "{$lang->click_mark_read}";
// -->
</script>
</head>
<body>
{$header}
{$dvz_shoutbox}
{$forums}
{$boardstats}
<dl class="forum_legend smalltext">
<dt><span class="forum_status forum_on" title="{$lang->new_posts}"></span></dt>
<dd>{$lang->new_posts}</dd>
<dt><span class="forum_status forum_off" title="{$lang->no_new_posts}"></span></dt>
<dd>{$lang->no_new_posts}</dd>
<dt><span class="forum_status forum_offlock" title="{$lang->forum_locked}"></span></dt>
<dd>{$lang->forum_locked}</dd>
<dt><span class="forum_status forum_offlink" title="{$lang->forum_redirect}"></span></dt>
<dd>{$lang->forum_redirect}</dd>
</dl>
<br class="clear" />
{$footer}
</body>
</html>

Thanks - yes, it does work. Now I just need to think about whether I want to add it.

One small question. If I have the date and time at the rh side, it goes over 2 lines. What do I edit to make it all on one line?
Cheers
