I had added all the edits etc for the forum_list template to add the taigaChat on my board index and it's not displaying.
All user group permissions etc are correct am I doing something wrong? Thank you.

PM me admin CP details and I will check this for you
 
Is there a way we can change the title that shows up in the navbar? I.e. from Shoutbox to just Chat?

Thanks
Ray
 
Hi Luke. My website is 2bcproductions.com

I have the chatbox on top of my forum and also on shoutbox page. Do you know why the text is smaller on the forum page. I would like to get it the same size as the shoutbox page.

Thanks

How do you change the name of the shoutbox? For example, instead of "Shoutbox" appearing in the navbar, I'd like it to say "Chat".

I can not give people mod powers in the shoutbox for some reason, I made a new group called SB mods, gave them permissions to do anything in the shoutbox besides delete and edit shoutbox messages (to combat evidence tampering), but when I add a person to that group (as their primary and only group) they can't do any mod stuff in the SB, hoowever they CAN delete anyone's post, which is something I set as no permission...

It sounds like you have an error in your permissions - you can use Admin CP > Users > Permissions > Analyze Permissions to diagnose this

Add this to EXTRA.css:

Code: 
#taigachat_box, #taigachat_box .username { font-size: 13px !important; }
 
Would it be possible to include number of unread chat posts in the chat menu item? Something like "chat(7)" or a number in red box similar to alert box?

I can see where that would be a REAL performance killer on a busy system, in fact probably enough so that if you were on shared hosting - you wouldn't be for long.

I don't think it would. There already is "unread post count" add on which tells you how many unread posts you have throughout the entire board. Doesn't seem to have any significant processing resource consumption.

If you chat box was busy, then yes, you are looking at an update almost constantly. Even on the larger boards that add-on you refer to has a negative impact on performance. They just have to weigh the costs of having it against shoving more hardware to make up for it.

Now, maybe if you were active in the full-screen window of it, it might not be to bad if that was the ONLY time it would catch it.

Either way, you can pretty much bet on most shared hosting accounts you would get ran off.
 
as of today for some reason a lot of people (including me) are having the issue that the shoutbox does not auto update itself, after a few refreshes it'll randomly work again.

Speed mode is disabled as when it is enabled the shoutbox just doesn't let us send chat messages all together.

Any ideas?

This seems to be happening mainly when you're tabbed out into a different browser tab. I've tried lowering the refresh timers to half of what they were but they don't seem to make much of a difference...

The data to provide something like that isn't stored (the server is unaware of the read/unread status of shoutbox messages per-user), and either way it would have a significant performance penalty

I've adjusted your nginx config so that speed mode works correctly, should hopefully resolve the issue

Thank you very much! will report if there's any more issues.
 
The field "Members in Chat" is not saying the truth. For example, i never participate in chat but i see my user name a lot off times in "Members in Chat". This could cause several problems, because someone might thing that is ignored by someone else.
 
I noticed the auto posting/archiving of chat to a thread takes a long time to post to... Is this by design? What's the normal time frame for it to start posting the transcript?

Thanks,
Ray
