Thanks for the update, seems to work nicely now.

Have you ever seen the behaviour Nefea describes here:

http://community.elgg.org/plugins/1153641/1.10rc1/elgg-chat-v110rc1

?

does it work with other themes?

it will work @buule

does it require bottom bar

Hi moneya, no, it doesn't require bottom bar

Thank Krischan.

How can i activate it? I activated the plugin but cannot see it on the site.

It should show up if you are logged in, if not check the webconsole in your browser for errors.

@nguyentoan : We had to disable it for now as some strange error with a crashed browser (I think) resulted in that computer heavily spamming out webserver and subsequently out host decided to block all incoming traffic. Not exactly sure how and why that happend, but I preferr to be one the safe side and the chat wasn't that vital for our page anyways.

i looked at start.php and found this line

elgg_register_library('elgg:group_chat', elgg_get_plugins_path() . 'group_chat/lib/group_chat.php');

i cannot find the file group_chat/lib/group_chat.php in my plugin directory. should it work standalone?

and i looked at the webconsole but cannot see any error relating this plugin

what can i do? is it working on a shared server?

Yes it was working on our shared server.

That reference in the start.php seems to be a left over from when the group_chat plug in was seperate. It seems to not effect the fuction of this plugin though.

Have you tried putting it to the bottom of the plugin list?

Are you using some Elgg themes that might be incompatible (it is working with easytheme)?

it is working now. i had some small design changes from standard theme and after disabling them it works. Thx!

por favor recomiende mi pagina por que este plugin es una simple modificacion del original

@Efrain please don't advertise your site on a plugin comment. Use the showcase page

http://community.elgg.org/showcase

I've removed the advertising

@Efrain - don't do that

sorry I'm new here 

1. Sometimes the online icon image does not show up or is broken and the image path is something like
elgg/mod/group_chat/graphics/icons/online_s.png - there is no group_chat folder in mod
2. How does an user personally disbale chat - for example, if she/he does not want to be called for chat
3. How can one user show busy or be invisible like in any standard chat
4. Not working with I.E. 8 ( many winXP users still there, and IE 8 is the latest available for winXP) - chat window shows but messages, after typing, do not get sent

How to have more admion controls or settings like freichat for elgg? How to disable the bottom bar?
Does this use comet or ajax? Does it support multiple simulataneous users easily or slows down the site (that is is this plugin resource intensive?)

Is this being actively developed? Will there be 1.9 version?
