Shoutbox by Siropu

Shoutbox by Siropu [Paid] 2.0.0

No permission to buy (€14.99)
Thank you @Siropu. How is the shoutbox in terms of performance degradation and resource usage if we don't prune the chatbox every x hours? Also, is it possible to set ax x time to do the prune except of every x hours, at this point I set it to 24hrs, and that appears to be happening every 5pm lol.

If we don't prune will it slow down the chatbox or forum, or eat up resources/ram?
 
It won't get slow. It is set by default to delete shouts older than 30 days and you can change that but you don't have to auto-pune every x hours.

Hey would you consider making a very minor tweak to this?

In Admin CP / Setup options, could you put the settings for the Shoutbox add-on at the bottom of the list? I'd rather keep the priority items I adjust regularly that come with XF up at the top of the XF options page as default. Like "Board Active" as option #1 and such.

Thank you for your consideration.
 
I had to put the shoutbox widget in a seperate HTML- Widget in Advanced mode" to get my site safe again https... With the green lock in Chrome...

<xf:widget key="siropu_shoutbox" /> > Advanced mode... else I can't get the green lock in HTTPS.. Is this Normal?



Also the shoutbox is to big for me.. Can I make it less High, like 4 lines...
[edit found it... ]
Code:
.siropuShoutboxShouts {
    height: 120px;
}



Thank you ;) Great addon !

That's unnecessary. What can cause that is the content (media) loaded over http in the shoutbox.
 
This application looks quite interesting. ;) Would you mind to answer these questions?
  • How much does the add-on affect the server load?
  • Is the design of the application allowed to get changed?
  • How big (kb size) is the application on the site load?
  • Is it possible to create an option to open the chat in a own window?

Best regards,
CabCon.
 
How much does the add-on affect the server load?
If auto-refresh is enabled, it will use 1 DB query per request for its own table.

Is the design of the application allowed to get changed?
You can style it how you want.

How big (kb size) is the application on the site load?
You mean per AJAX request?

Is it possible to create an option to open the chat in a own window?
No. My Chat has that option.
 
Thanks for your answers.

You mean per AJAX request?
Yes


EDIT:
Another question:
  • Is it possible to remove the Please wait and the blocking of the text field after entering a message? It really destroys input flow.
