So am trying to install a new theme. Theme installs perfectly. But the two tabs on chat box "Active User" and "Hash Tab" are kind of black in color. The selected tab however displays color correctly accordin to theme setting. Something wrong on my part?
 
Selected tab uses the stylevar postbit_background -> Background Colour.
Inactive tab uses the stylevar blocksubhead_background.

Oh ok. Is there a way that inactive tabs also use postbit background as the other color cannot be altered due to theme look and design.
 
You can edit the alt1 and alt2 colours in CSS Templates -> dbtech_vbshout_colours.css :)
 
I just manually checked the product xml for vb3.x and vb4.x and that template does indeed exist in there.
 
To put vBShout in a custom location, do the following:


Step 1: AdminCP -> DBTech - vBShout-> Instance Management -> [Edit].

Step 2: Change the Auto-Display Shoutbox setting to Disabled.

Step 3: Write down the the Varname setting. For the default shoutbox, it's instance1. The rest of this guide will assume you replace instance1 with the actual Varname if it is different.

Step 4: Enter the Style Manager and add either {vb:raw show.vbshout_instance1} (vB4) or {$show[vbshout_instance1]} (vB3) to the templates you wish the shoutbox to appear in.


Follow these steps as described and you will have total control over the position of the Shoutbox.

Hope that helps :)
