New Chat Widget!

C

I have added a chat widget to the site, check the bottom of the site. Let me know your thoughts!

S

Chris … where is it located? I don’t see it … maybe i need to log out and log back in? Note - just logged out and back in - still not chat i can discern.

C

@snuffbrant: It’s at the bottom of the page, see the screenshot. I know there have been issues with some folks not being able to see some things, hope this isn’t one of those things.

G

Good widget, it’ll be interesting to read some chat from our members. The page responds fast as always.

C

Yes, so far there is no lag on my end as well. If anyone has issues with visability or lag, please post it here.

S

Sorry, Chris, I still do not see it. Think it has to do with me using Chrome? Will check IE… nope, no IE either.

S

I’m on Chrome and it shows up here. Time to get a new computer, @snuffbrant!

C

@snuffbrant I am using IE here at work and use Chrome at home, I don’t think it’s a browser issue. I am forwarding this thread to Vanilla, I’ll see what they say. Might also be a java plugin issue.

S

Ah … yeah … no new computer here, it’s my laptop from work. And Chris, it’s no biggie if it is not fixable on my end. Chat for me could be dangerous i may not edit myself … cheers!

C

It’s still an issue for other members. @Lincoln with Vanilla notified me that some of my HTML code was wrong (not surprised )

So that’s where that popping noise has been coming from.

C

:))

X

Yeah, I’ve closing windows and webpages for like the last 15 minutes thinking it was from some annoying advertisement somwhere or something.

C

Sorry, there is a little speaker icon on the bottom left where you can mute the chat.

X

I closed the whole chat. Seeing the posts moving below was distracting. I hope I only closed it from my perspective, and didn’t close it on those that were using it.

C

Nope, still there.

S

@cstokes4, looks like i have the chat feature now. excellent.

C

@snuffbrant Are you on the same computer as earlier?

S

yessir @cstokes4

Good stuff!

P

I like it, a lot. Edit: Finally, a social life!

O

help. looks like it worked temporarily, using a temporary name feature (onefortheroad). but now it won’t let me sign up as a chatango member (says screen name is taken) and won’t let me use temporary name feature either (says sorry this name is )?! this name is what? it worked a few minutes ago!

S

@onefortheroad, when signing up you may have to alter your name a bit with a number or something…

B

Great feature, I guess now I can be a live social creature. If reading while smoking and snuff use hasn’t enriched my world. Now I can interact live. It’s not my birthday but thanks @cstokes4

M

worked for me but only after allowing the chatango script to run
