Group chat doesn't seem to work. I click on it and all I get is a line to the right of the icon and that's about it. Tried with three logged in users. Also in Firefox there is no icon its a just the word group chat.

can you post a screenshot here?

also post a screenshot of your chrome console after a page refresh.
Note: to open chrome console. press F12

Here is the requested. No errors in the console but is there a way to change the Gravatars link to HTTPS so my site actually keeps its link green in the browser bar? Or does Gravatar support SSL?

Screenshots attached.

Hard to read but I am sure you will find a way....

Bump.......

Admin, I need somewhere to start with this. I am not sure how this is suppose to work but I do know it is not working and in FF looks crappy. I upgraded to the next level service because I was happy with the overall product and support. Can we please continue this relationship?

Hi,

Sorry, but somehow we missed to reply to your topic.

Can you send us the freichat folder from your server ? (you can send us via mail)
This may happen because of some missing files.

It would be possible to identify the problem if you could provide us your website address with 2 test accounts.

The site is ghostlyhaks.com. What access level do the test accounts need? I can email you the freichat folder if need be.

Hi,

We do not need any special access, just normal user accounts will suffice.

Hi,

We do not need any special access, just normal user accounts will suffice.

The two test users are:

test:Testing@123
test2:Testing@123

Regular registered accounts with no real access, anyone is allowed to register so no harm in posting these here.

I need you guys to see why group chat is not working, why there are multiple sessions being opened on refreshes and navigation of the site. And also please check the cross browser compatibility of Friechat. I am having some weird stuff happen at random.

I think we found the problem.

Can you paste the code of freichat/arg.php here ?

Hi,

The file looks correct, but we found many css issues.

The groupchat is not visible due to some css conflicts.
Also, the autocomplete is not working properly.

Can you try doing a complete fresh install in a new folder somewhere else ?

Ok that makes sense... How could you tell it was an issue with CSS? I will strip all CSS and I will use a default template.

Also please can you tell me how to make sure gravitar is using the HTTPS links. I went through and modified all that I could find but there is still mixed content issues on the site.

What auto-complete are you referring to?

OK autocomplete is working and the group chat pops up. It is also compatible with all browsers. The other question I have is the number of sessions being opened by guest users when they visit. I usually get a couple different sessions per user on the site. they clear up shortly after but just wanted a bit of feedback. I will fix my CSS and restyle the chat.

One more thing, can you please also address the other issue I have with mixed content? I need to make all the calls to gravitar HTTPS.

Hi,

For the multiple sessions, it may be because of a php error.
Can you enable PHP debug from freichat backend then check the file freichat/freixlog.log
after 24 hours ?

You can change the gravatar url in freichat/server/freichat.php
Search for the word 'gravatar.com' .

OK, I have no clue why I failed to check that file for gravitar but nevertheless it worked without a hitch so nothing appearing in console anymore. I have started logging the PHP errors. I will post the file as soon as I detect something.
