New easier chat system installed
Posted: Wed Aug 29, 2007 10:36 am
I have installed a new chat module that will make chatting easier. I liked the features of the old chat but it had bugs where it would say someone is chatting when they had closed out hours earlier. To go along with this new chat I have made a change that will tell your browser to update it's online status more often so if you leave the forum pages open then it will show you as online. I hope this will encourage the exchange of information using the chat system as well as the forum.
When I first installed the new chat module it was displaying at the bottom of the forum index. I have moved it up to the top to see how it works up there.
I have plans to make additional changes to check for new messages when it does it's "online" status check so you won't have to refresh the pages to see when new messages are posted.
