vbShout doubts

Some doubts about vbShout.

1. I want to hide the chat content from guests (show only to logged in users) - is it possible?

2. Is it possible to change the shoutbox location to the sidebar for example?

3. Do the archives are indexed by search engine crawlers?

Thanks

1. I believe this is the default configuration but if not, you can certainly do that

2. No, this shoutbox does not have a "minimal mode" that would be required to fit in the sidebar.

3. There is a separate "Can View Archive" permission that you can use to control whether archives are accessible to guests.
