Chat Window?

[TomKnollRFV]

I hate to point this out but every one complaining about chat..hasn't been in it..and may not be aware but the Chat has to be programmed. I don't know if Jeff does the coding or not; but it means changing code. He might have more important bits of coding to attend to/pay some one to attend to. I'm not sure how it interrupts typing up a post though. When my posts get large enough to start taking up half a page, they just scroll up, not down?

We try to make every member happy with the decisions we make. As Jeff stated we do take them all into consideration and will see what we can do. That being said we do have to prioritize task so it may take a while to achieve what you are looking for as maintaining the site and databases take more priority.

Hang in there we will see what we can do to help make it better if possible.

Thanks

I haven't had a chance to say so, but thanks for clearing up the problem with the chat on the mobile. Appreciate it.

I have removed the chat bar from mobile for now.. however, we are still working on it and deciding how to make it work best for everyone. For now, you can go to https://smokingmeatforums.com/chat if you want to use chat on mobile.

I would like to suggest adding a link to chat in the menu. I just switched phones and had to go through a few threads to find the link again. A link in menu might help somebody else on mobile in the future. Thanks.

Is there any way to close that little box?

Maybe this has already been answered somewhere else , but The answer is yes .
1. Lower right toggle chat window
2. Chat window open , upper right click settings
3. Menu drop down , under miscellaneous check disable chat .
4. same menu drop down under sounds un-check the boxes or you will still hear sound reports even if chat is disabled .
If you don't want to hear sounds do that step BEFORE you disable chat .
I was in the chat room for awhile the last couple nights . I enjoyed it . Give it a try , and disable when not in use .

Chat is awesome. Good group hang out there often. I have seen many people pop in with questions that get quickly answered. Thank you admin for bringing back the chat room. If you haven’t checked it out try it sometime or if you have a quick question pop in for help.
