This is not essentially my hack, it's a group effort originating in the http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/index.php?t=9818 forums.
The following instructions will allow you to add vBShout v2.0 by Zero Tolerance as a fully collapsible module to your http://www.vbadvanced.com/products.php?do=productinfo&p=4 homepage v2.0.0, and remove it from your Forum Home [if you want]. Note, you must have both the vBShout product and CMPS installed with vBulletin 3.5.0 - it may work with Betas, but I really don't know.
This is a group effort from a few guys over at the vBadvanced forums, which includes http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/member.php?u=15640 and http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/member.php?u=8752 - I take no credit for this, I just spotted a problem with how the vBa forums was parsing postbits there. Plus the integration wasn't getting much attention over there and it would be a shame for users of vBShout and vBadvanced to miss out on this.
1) Create a new template based module called 'Shoutbox' in CMPS [ACP > vBa CMPS > Add Module > Template].
2) In 'Column', choose 'Center Column'.
3) Set 'Active' and 'Update All Pages' to Yes [assuming you want it to be active, and update all pages].
4 a) TO ADD AS A CENTRE MODULE - IF YOU DO THIS DO NOT FOLLOW STEPS B OR C!
In 'Template Content', paste the following code [this relies on you running your CMPS & vB in the same folder]. This will add a template to the selected Style called 'adv_portal_vbshout'.
4 b) TO ADD AS A SIDE MODULE - ONLY FOLLOW THIS STEP IF YOU DID NOT PERFORM STEP A.
In 'Template Content', paste the following code [this relies on you running your CMPS & vB in the same folder]. This will add a template to the selected Style called 'adv_portal_vbshout'.
4 c) ONLY PERFORM THIS STEP IF YOU DID NOT PERFORM STEP A!
Edit your 'forumhome_vbshout_shout' template [ACP > Styles & Templates > Style Manager > YOUR DEFAULT STYLE > forumhome_vbshout_shout], and replace it's contents with the following.
5) In the 'Module Shell Template Options' section when adding a template, add the following URL in 'Module Link'.
http://www.mysite.com/vbshout.php?do=archive
The above, again assumes you have CMPS & vBa running in the same folder. Replace http://www.mysite.com with the address of your website.
If your CMPS & vB are not installed in the same folder, you will need to replace all instances of 'vbshout.php' in the template and in 'Module Link' with the path to where you have vBShout installed in relation to your CMPS. For example if you have CMPS installed in the root folder, and vBshout within a folder called 'forum' you would need to replace all instances of 'vbshout.php' with '/forum/vbshout.php'.
Removing vBShout from your Forum Home - IF YOU FOLLOWED STEP 4 b) YOU HAVE TO DO STEP 5 - YOUR VBSHOUT WILL NOT RENDER CORRECTLY ON YOUR FORUM HOME! IF YOU HAVE YOUR SHOUTBOX AS A CENTRE MODULE ON THE CMPS, AND WANT TO ALSO HAVE IT RUNNING ON THE FORUM HOME, DO NOT PERFORM THIS STEP!
6) In your ACP go to [ACP > Plugin System > Plugin Manager] - find on that page 'vBShout [Template Alteration]' and uncheck the box which will deactivate it.
That's all there is to it folks, a very simple fix to the problem.

The above, again assumes you have CMPS & vBa running in the same folder. Replace http://www.mysite.com with the address of your website.
If your CMPS & vB are not installed in the same folder, you will need to replace all instances of 'vbshout.php' in the template and in 'Module Link' with the path to where you have vBShout installed in relation to your CMPS. For example if you have CMPS installed in the root folder, and vBshout within a folder called 'forum' you would need to replace all instances of 'vbshout.php' with '/forum/vbshout.php'.
Removing vBShout from your Forum Home - IF YOU FOLLOWED STEP 4 b) YOU HAVE TO DO STEP 5 - YOUR VBSHOUT WILL NOT RENDER CORRECTLY ON YOUR FORUM HOME! IF YOU HAVE YOUR SHOUTBOX AS A CENTRE MODULE ON THE CMPS, AND WANT TO ALSO HAVE IT RUNNING ON THE FORUM HOME, DO NOT PERFORM THIS STEP!
6) In your ACP go to [ACP > Plugin System > Plugin Manager] - find on that page 'vBShout [Template Alteration]' and uncheck the box which will deactivate it.
That's all there is to it folks, a very simple fix to the problem.
