SA Chat

[Realinfo]

and tell how member can disable it for himself

sure install the dev build
https://github.com/SAMods/SAChatBar/downloads

as I install it.......... Now it show "who's online" zero..............

while SA_Chat_Beta_5_Rev44.zip show right number of users online.................

can't we do manual edit in profile.template

[SA™]

that part was modifyed to take into account the users who disabled the bar  if it disabled it wont show them in the list but i do see the issue here the problem is this mod look in the themes table for show_cbar if it is 1 then bar is disabled for that person now the problem is that vlaue probaly wont exsist untill all members set that in there prifule lookand layout so  i need to think on this one for a bit longer to get it right

[hcfwesker]

Can member for forum can disable it for himself............. is there any such option as some members just don't want while many others like it...............

@ SA, I remember you doing this in the past.  It allowed members to turn it off under their options in look & layout preferences.

EDIT:::

Just found it 9 pages back.

[hcfwesker]

Derped!  lol.  didn't realize that, haven't checked updates since last year.

[Realinfo]

Code Select Expand

echo ' <li> <input type="hidden" name="default_options[show_cbar]" value="0" /> <label for="show_cbar"><input type="checkbox" name="default_options[show_cbar]" id="show_cbar" value="1"', !empty($context['member']['options']['show_cbar']) ? ' checked="checked"' : '', ' class="input_check" /> Hide chat bar?</label> </li>';
echo '
<li>
<input type="hidden" name="default_options[view_newest_first]" value="0" />
<label for="view_newest_first"><input type="checkbox" name="default_options[view_newest_first]" id="view_newest_first" value="1"', !empty($context['member']['options']['view_newest_first']) ? ' checked="checked"' : '', ' class="input_check" /> ', $txt['recent_posts_at_top'], '</label>
</li>';

I tried to do manual edit............ But this not disable SA Chat bar............

and I also have this issue...............

When I have the chat enabled, the scroll bar doesn't work.  If I disable it through config, the scroll bar works again.  I also have simple portal installed. IE9.

GREAT MOD BTW!!

removed 2sichat_list_type from admin members can now choose themself
initJs() refactured
custom head js per theme
bug fixes and code changes

[beanflying]

Nice new features but if possible I would still like to have Admin control over If the members can use them or not. So can you leave them as additional permission settings such as-

Users hide/show chatbar
Users select buddies/open/off (that is still show the chatbar and the other gadgets)

so rather than an admin setting a permission is more flexible.

[SA™]

so permissions to use this profile features you mean?

[beanflying]

Yes. For example I may like to Force all users of a certain group or groups to view the bar so the gadgets are available (including for guests). But allow users to switch on of off the chat side of it (or select buddies only).

I think it just gives more flexibility to customize it for most admins with little to no programming skills needed.

[SA™]

https://github.com/SAMods/SAChatBar/downloads
try that

added two permissions to use the settings

[beanflying]

Some strange things going on my Admin account is the only one showing as whos online to regular users. They can chat to me and I can chat back but as I can't see them I can't start a chat?

I suspect maybe a permission around the wrong way 

Cleared the cache on both browsers and all as it should be  I will leave it up live on our site and see how it goes.

[SA™]

cool i registerd there as Wine

tho i just pushed another update that will update the users better

[beanflying]

I wondered who the stray UK member was when I was approving it Tim or Beanflying is me BTW.

Seems our existing members are still stuck with cached versions of the old bar, know of an easy way server or smf side to clear this?

[SA™]

hmm not sure
im only seeing aswell 2 people in chat have the others set there settings to disabled or buddies you know?

[beanflying]

Very unlikely all of the others would have run off to disable the settings in the 30 minutes or so it has been up. I did also remove the permissions for member disable to test that too but no change to the members showing online.

[SA™]

yeah i see the issue now

[beanflying]

  Success thanks to some SA mod work 

The Current version linked above works, still has an issue with new members to be resolved but SA was going to sleep - No dedication at all
