Will this work for Xenforo 1.5?

See the above link in the previous post for the 1.5 version, however if you want a suggestion, I recommend installing XF2. It (XF) works so much better with mobile devices as well as new browser features - I waited a year to upgrade from XF 1.x but it was completely worth it.

 

[Siropu]

Following error during upgrade. Don't know if it's relevant or not.

It is not an issue and it won't show up again. It is due to a new method that has been added.

I wonder if implementing an option to convert inserted images to thumbnails (and thus the dimensions would be able to be specified in the actual chat message data) would fix the issue.

Knowing the image dimensions would't help. The scrollbar is scrolled down and when the image loads it bumps back. The changes I have made work pretty good for me. You don't see any difference?

I'll play around with it more today and let you know.

If the image dimensions are specified in the img html tag, the browser will pre-allocate the space required to display the image even if it hasn't fully loaded yet. This is how most modern lazy load image scripts work nowadays in order to prevent the "bouncing" effect when scrolling through a page that hasn't loaded all locally hosted images yet.

Thinking about this a little more - at least on my site we tend to use the image upload function provided by the chatbox instead of inserting external images so specifying dimensions (assuming they are stored in the database somewhere upon upload) so these images would at least benefit from dimensions being specified. But as far as externally inserted images go, unless the chatbox pre-downloaded the external image in order to determine the dimensions and subsequently added them to the img html tag, external images would still result in the issue.

But again, I don't believe I've messed with it since you last mentioned you made some changes to it so I'll keep you posted on if that seemed to have resolved the issue.

Either way thanks a bunch for the reply!

You are right. I don't know why I was thinking at data attributes and not the actual width and height.

Hi,
i have another questen

I use the "auto login user" and "message display limit" option

When i join the room i see the last 25 lines. but in the message display limit i use 3 lines. when i logout from chat and then login i see 3 lines. thats right. but when i close the tab and go another day online. i see last 25 lines. is there an option to change this? or works only when user use logout button?

 

[Siropu]

Try making the change in the widget itself.

 

[Rifur]

thanks, works perfect

Hi, if in display mode I select above the contents, how can I decrease the size of the chat? Thanks!

 

[Siropu]

It is a Chat style property called "Chat content height".

 

[Đoàn Hoàng Nam]

can we hide navv bar when go to chat page on mobile

 

[Siropu]

You mean the main XF navbar and sublinks?

 

[Đoàn Hoàng Nam]

You mean the main XF navbar and sublinks?

yes

 

[Siropu]

Add in extra.less

@media (max-width: @xf-responsiveNarrow)
{
     body[data-template="siropu_chat_page"]
     {
          .p-nav, .p-sectionLinks
          {
               display: none;
          }
     }
}

 

[Đoàn Hoàng Nam]

what about "open in pop up" auto on mobile and i sêe font size with themehouse when open in pop-up is too big

 

[Siropu]

That option is for both desktop and mobile. As for the font size, try this:

#siropuChatFullPage
{
    font-size: 14px;
}

maybe remove geneal chit-chat on top too

 

[Siropu]

Add this as well:

#siropuChatFullPage
{
     .block-header
     {
          font-size: 20px;
     }
     .menu-header
     {
          font-size: 17px;
     }
     .menu-content
     {
          font-size: 13px;
     }
}
