Hey SA,

I had this MOD installed a while back but ended up using another one in it's place as I had a few issues with it but I'm taking another look at this and was pleasantly surprised to see you are continuing to develop this!

. . .

I'd really like to convert to using one of these style of chats but I'll stick with what I am using until the latest release is more stable..

I've been considering trying out this mod, but reading these messages makes me think twice. 420connect, can you tell me what (working) mod you've been using?

My smf is 2.0.9 and I hardly have any mods installed, so may just try SA Chat anyway and see what happens.

At the moment, I'm using Simple Portal's 'shoutbox' as a sort of live chat feature, - It seems to perform as expected with no/very little bugs ..I've tried a few now, but had issues with other similar ones.. I'm looking forward to and planning to use to SA's latest release when it becomes available though.

Thank you! I'll check that out. BTW I find your forum interesting, being a resident of Colorado. Dispensaries here are beginning to outnumber Starbucks. Oh, the stories I could tell...

BBC parser now works a lot better images and youtube videos are also now supported using the img and video tags [WIP].
Updated theme also includes a fb style theme just by modding the css you can still have a full bar version this was not possible before.

Thank you so much for the new release however I'm still finding messages aren't appearing / chats won't always open..

I've got loads of entries in the error log of the chat but some of these could be from old versions if thats possible?

[SA™]

Yes that's a conflict with older versions uninstall the mod then remove the sachat directory from your server and reinstall the newer version

[420Connect.co.uk]

I uninstalled it but there was no chat folder left behind after, so thought it might have been old parts from my db?
.. anyway, I deleted the si2chat tables then reinstalled..

The chat windows now stay open but still wont show the text?

log this time:

[SA™]

[420Connect.co.uk]

[SA™]

[Dumke]

Were you able to fix the issue with usernames with spaces or foreign characters, having a new line?

I just installed SA Chat yesterday and see some error messages in the log. I've only been testing it so far and it appears to be working just fine. I have it installed in a test forum plus my live one, and they are both getting the same error messages, repeated over and over.

I guess I should add that my live forum is 2.0.9, the test one is 2.0.10. The live forum has a only few additional plugins (see below), the test one has one additional, SMFPacks_Shoutbox.
