6. open themes/yourtheme/styles.css
   and add to top

   @import url("http://www.yoursite.net/chat/css/shoutbox.css");
   

   
   this must be the first line
   
7. now open include/functions and add
   <?php
function getShoutBoxContent() {
    global $user, $db, $db_prefix, $localhost_autologin;
        @setcookie('PMBTNAME',$user->name,time()+1200,$cookiepath,$cookiedomain,0);
        @setcookie('PMBT_USERID',$user->id,time()+1200,$cookiepath,$cookiedomain,0);
        if($user->user)@setcookie('ACTIVE_USER','true',time()+1200,$cookiepath,$cookiedomain,0);
        else
        @setcookie('ACTIVE_USER','false',time()+1200,$cookiepath,$cookiedomain,0);
        if($user->admin)@setcookie('PMBT_ADMIN','true',time()+1200,$cookiepath,$cookiedomain,0);
        else
        @setcookie('PMBT_ADMIN','false',time()+1200,$cookiepath,$cookiedomain,0);
        if($user->moderator)@setcookie('PMBT_MOD','true',time()+1200,$cookiepath,$cookiedomain,0);
        else
        @setcookie('PMBT_MOD','false',time()+1200,$cookiepath,$cookiedomain,0);
    

    // URL to the chat directory:
    if(!defined('AJAX_CHAT_URL')) {
        define('AJAX_CHAT_URL', '/chat/');
    }
    
    // Path to the chat directory:
    if(!defined('AJAX_CHAT_PATH')) {
        define('AJAX_CHAT_PATH', realpath(dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']).'/chat').'/');
    }
    
    // Validate the path to the chat:
    if(@is_file(AJAX_CHAT_PATH.'lib/classes.php')) {
        
        // Include Class libraries:
        require_once(AJAX_CHAT_PATH.'lib/classes.php');
        
        // Initialize the shoutbox:
        $ajaxChat = new CustomAJAXChatShoutBox();
        
        // Parse and return the shoutbox template content:
        return $ajaxChat->getShoutBoxContent();
    }
    
    return null;
}
?>
   
8. Now open header.php and find

   include("blocks/shoutbox.php");

   and remove or comment it out
   
9. now we decide where we want new shout if you want it in same place then add

   if ($user->user)
   {
   OpenTable('testajax');
   echo getShoutBoxContent();
   CloseTable();
   }
   

   at same location
   if you want to add it to top of each page then add it right before the ?>
   if you only want it in the index then open index.php and add it bellow

   if ($welcome_message != ""){
   OpenTable(_btsitenews);
   echo "<table><tr><td>$welcome_message</td></tr></table>";
   CloseTable();
   }
   

   
   

Ive not mess with this in over 2 years because the default shoutbox for PMBT is java based
