Chat 2 by Siropu [Paid] 2.5.2

No permission to buy (€29.99)
Hi, just a hint by the way.
Many users are just too inexperienced (to put it politely) to select the rooms. Again and again you have to explain isolated people - if they dare to ask.
I have now highlighted the "Select rooms" field.
Select the Template "siropu_chat_browse_rooms" and replace the existing text with this:

HTML:
<span style="color:red;border:1px solid red;background-color:#ffff99;border-radius:10px;">Chaträume auswählen</span>

It looks a lot better and the questions are less - or go to 0. Alone by the color, the users are already curious and just click that way.

You can also outsource the CSS in the extra.less:

CSS:
.siropu_chat_browse_rooms {
    color:red;
    border:1px solid red;
    background-color:#ffff99;
    border-radius:10px;
}

Then you still have to change the Template "siropu_chat_browse_rooms":

HTML:
<span class="siropu_chat_browse_rooms">Chaträume auswählen</span>

@Siropu, could you slow down the polling for people who aren't viewing the page or tab?

I did this myself, but re-doing it every time I upgrade is frustrating and it also yells at me for missing a checksum.
 
Linking images isn't working for some reason. I'm seeing this in the browser console but no errors in the AdminCP. Tested with the latest version of FireFox. I believe it started with the upgrade to 2.1.0.

Hi @Siropu,

Is there a way to show the number of unread private conversation in the menubar counter instead of new messages in a room? Or at least showing both (e.g., 10/5)?

You can use the "Refresh interval for inactive users" option.

No, I can't. Not without editing your code. Your software treats people with the chat open in background tabs, etc. as 'active', polling them at the full rate. Open up the network tab in devtools, and watch how often you are polling in a background tab. Then imagine this on a site with hundreds of active users who like to open up dozens of tabs - with chat - to your forum.

When I'm back on my dev machine I will share my fixes to your code.

Hi @Siropu,

it would be great if the Chat in XF would submit the status. "Siropu chats in the room 'Standard'".
Now it only says: "Siropu looks at the forum overview".
After 45 minutes (cookie timeout) the user is "gone".
I think that would be in the interest of all chat users.
Thumbs up who wants that too;)
