Cyrem Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 (edited) Considering the use case of a embedding a chat widget, will the floating widgets remain open if I change pages (through use of a cookie)? or will I need to re-open the widget? Edited June 6, 2017 by Cyrem kmk 1

While that is a useful option, not entirely what I meant. What I meant was, through use of a cookie, to save the open/close state of a widget. So when a page loads, if the last saved state was open it'll automatically re-open, if it was closed, it will stay closed. Basically, I would like my site chat widget to be closed on first visit, but if members open it, I would like to to remain open as they browse the forums unless they explicitly close it again. Hope I made sense Edited June 7, 2017 by Cyrem kmk 1

Hello, No it should work fine on ips 4.1 and 4.2 anyways the problem is your theme probably loading the JavaScript in header anyways Edit your theme and go to Custom tab then set this setting I will fix it in next version so it does not depend on this setting let me know if that fixes the issue Edited June 7, 2017 by TAMAN dokdok 1
TAMAN Posted June 7, 2017 Author Posted June 7, 2017 Just now, dokdok said: Perfect, now everything works. Thanks so much! Great! I'm glad to hear that let me know if you need anything else dokdok 1
dokdok Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 A curiosity: can I run it only on the Homepage or in the future can I use it in various forums?

dokdok Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 I apologize for my bad English ... I mean ... there may be a possibility to set up directly in the settings, which pages, forums, the widget can be viewed without having to add it to each single page?

No that is not possible, you need to manually add it to pages you want dokdok 1

jcdesign Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Is this 4.2 ready? I have to remove It because It messed up my sidebar, and when trying to remove the widget, It not disappear.

Yes, It should be fine on ips 4.2 any link to check? or a screenshot, what is messed up exactly?
dokdok Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 One question: Would you be able to prepare widgets by only activating them when they serve? For example, create a specific widget for a category of members to use only on some occasions and not always fixed. It would be convenient to enable / disable it whenever you want, without having to create it again each time
