Disable Shoutbox and Upload Option
November 05, 2017 04:24PM
Hello everybody,

I am a teacher and using the piratebox (MR3020) for my students. Students could be quite creative using shoutbox and upload function. Therefore I want to disable both. Of course the students should still be able to download files, which I copy on the USB stick.

For disabling the shoutbox option I tried to set 
SHOUTBOX_ENABLED = "no"
in /opt/piratebox/conf/piratebox.conf

But that didn't work. The shoutbox was still working.

Additionally, I wasn't be able to disable the upload function.

Please help me....

Hi Jens,
If you want to use PirateBox more for distributing files, you might want to have a look at LibraryBox. It is a bit easier to manage, without an imageboard nor enabled upload.

best regards Matthias
