How do I add instance in navigation bar template because I want it to appear on all page but it does not appear when I add {vb:raw show.vbshout_instance1} in my navbar template
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.
