We were looking in the beginning to port this one to xoops, but unfortunally the Licence doesnt allow this

Just an update to show development has not gone totally dead

The chat window does not stay at the position it was left the last time if it was moved or once you minimize the chat window

I agree, this is a problem, and also the drag 'n drop cancels the scroll in the chat window. someone has some ideas about making this work and he'll look into this.

I am at the moment looking into a method including all the javascript without the use of preloads so also xoops 2.3.3 will be able to use xim. Also it does not look like preloads will be supported in the upcomming Xoops 3.0, so eigher way it will need to be done anyway.

Some feautures is still pending for instance the content of xim/index page. someone has some ideas about this but is somewhat secretive. Only promising "good news soon" so I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

As far as I see though we're getting more near a version 1.0.

- default sound is 'beer'...

Ups... Must be my fondness of beer acting up. I have now changed the default sound to the more simple click in the svn. You'll need to reinstall or update to change to the new default.

Boxes that are closed pop back up again later.

It's a cookie issue, someone already fixed it maybe somewhere it got reverted back

Boxes don't lock on the bottom of the screen like in facebook.

They should do, at least they have done it all my tests, just to to admin->xim/config and make able the footerbar then it should be ok ?

Quote:

The scroll bar does not work. Very fustrating. Is there a special trick.

Thats the problem with adding new features, somethimes they bring new issues. This is a problem with the new drag 'n drop, I'm afraid, and this we definitely need to have a look at :)

...avatar aligning...

I have checked in IE and it looks ok, but of course I havent checked with a username longer than "culex" so I am guessing when the username becomes a certain lenght the style differences becomes like this.

New rule. No-one with username more than 5 letters can use this

I'll have a test go with a full lenght chatname and see what we can do about this

I am still getting FF displaying Username a-skew from image (align:left;) Vs. (align:right) though, but I think this migh be the same as the other problem.

question
How to disable sound for all user ?
How to pick a default sound for all user?

I am not sure I like this idea with turn off sound ar choose sound for all users, I think it would be up the user what sound they can stand listening too

The chat as default now is off with sound and 'status is online' as default, so for now I'll rather not change too much from this.

hehe yes of course xoops_version.php hmm this has me buggled also..

Only thing I could think of was this uppercase module name in language definition vs. the lowercase dir name.

Try to uninstall and install again with the changed xoops_version.php ??

@Oswaldo Muchos gracias

I have added your translation to svn (your link shows "https://" I figured out it ought to be "http://"

@Dante7237 I just had a chat with Ghia, and this - I think - confirmed my suspision. Try in xim/xoopsmodule.php to change the


$modversion['name'] = _MI_XIM_MODULE_NAME;

to


$modversion['name'] = "xim";

I tested in my own site and seems to work, but I would like to know if you see any difference, as my site was already working with the lang. def. before also

@Dante. Also I am without a clue, I have spread the question around a little hoping someone more skilled than me can have a good explanation.

@ eparcyl92 I'll look into this. I had myself some problems with the submit.php page in news module, but for some reason this problem went away without discoverying exactely why. But i'll install newbb and give it a look.

The wishcraft chat is based on the same jquery core as the xim but also I cannot make this go in 2.4.4,

I'll look into this later but for now someone and I will continue testing and adding features on xim.

Sure the more smooth running the footer looks the better, I'll leave this for someone as he has been doing almost all work on the footer itself and I only made this one change with the language define you mentioned earlier.

At the moment we're just consentrating to get the module running without any bugs, and only making small adjustments like this with the footer.

After the 1.0 we'll again begin to add more features.

See if you in your sql tables have an old xim.

Probably this is why you cannot install under this name.

The script calls modules/xim/js/chat.js (xim in lower case)

Maybe an older install thats stuck there. So you'll have to rename to module folder to xim, delete the (if existing old MySQL tables with xim) and install under this lowers case name
