Uhmm i installed this on my localhost and there was 4 guys in there <.< is this a joke? they're names was: stupideye, someguy, and the last one i dont remember.



This is the result of not entering an API Key and an API Secret in the Admin CP setting as instructed in the instructions! :) Please register a developer account at Tinychat and enter this vital information into the Admin CP settings.

v1.0.1 released!

It fixes the issue of display names with special symbols. If you are upgrading, uninstall the application, delete the directory /admin/applications_addon/other/tinychat/. Then upload this folder from the new v1.0.1 archive and install again.

Ok the file is there but when i got to unzip the file it says "A problem is keeping this file from being encrypted. Download anyway?" Is that going to cause a problem with the install? Also, do I click through the folders and only upload the contents of the "tinychat" folder to the "other" folder on my server?

Strange, I have re-uploaded the modification, try downloading it again.


The mod itself works fine on our forums :P



The only bad thing is that the FireFox 3.6 always crashes while trying to connect a microphone or cam :huh:



I can't really do anything about that, it's probably a bug with the actual chat service. You can contact the developers of Tinychat from the Contact button on their site, send them your microphone/camera model that causes a crash.



It always logs me in as a guest, why is that? Can it not automatically log members in?



It should. Does your display name have special or foreign characters? That could cause this feature not to work correctly. Please link to your forum.


It's a plugin from TinyChat. I doubt it would know if you're a member or not. ;)



Wrong, we can supply the chatroom the member's name when we load it. :)

I installed this earlier. Works very well. Couple things:

1) Can we disable audio and video and if so How?
2) The sidebar always says "loading.." Is something supposed to display there?
3) Member names are showing up in all lower case...Not sure if this is by design or what.

Overall it works very well though. But for us to use it with our members we will have to disable video and audio.

1) Yes, enable Broadcast Restriction mode in the ACP.
2) Does your browser support JavaScript and Ajax? What is your browser?
3) This is by design, as it is not possible to use upper-case characters as a nickname in Tinychat, try for example entering a upper case letter in http://tinychat.com/test, it won't allow it.


^ 3) I think it uses the members SEO name.



I can't test/use the sidebar hook because I've disabled the normal sidebar with a custom blocks mod. Is there a PHP equivalent that I can paste in to make such a block?



You are right about it using the SEO name, this was changed in v1.0.1 because members that had special characters / symbols in their display name were logged in as guests.

Having the same problem with sidebar loading on FireFox 3.6. The ajax refresh of the shoutbox works fine.

Awesome mod and thank you for continuing support.

1 thing Im running into is all of our members use an underscore i.e SCE_Ghost it still shows up as guest. I see you fixed it for special characters but its still not working :( I got DL 1.0.1

Any ideas?
