It's alive on my test forum!
Problem with missing table still persists

Wadera

I've tried to copy this table between databases without luck (but this error can be helpful):

me@myhost $ mysqldump  --user=SecretUser --password=SecretPasswrd dev_forum neonchat_messages | mysql --user=SecretUser --password=SecretPasswrd prd_forum
ERROR 1005 (HY000) at line 25: Can't create table `prd_forum`.`neonchat_messages` (errno: 121 "Duplicate key on write or update")

@Xelson Move the display window button, all pages can see chat?

Xelson

Geraldlzc you mean, does the moved chat frame overlap the forum pages? It's possible even in default position and i didn't find any solution for this except minimizing

Geraldlzc

Xelson How to publish information without logging in?

Good news: moving to beta14 with mithril 2 significantly increased chat performance and made me to rewrite the entire front-end in a new better way. The update should be released before November 13.

Wadera

I've been able to test last dev release. It's so great! Like small Slack build in into Flarum! I'm loving it!

That's my support:

I've play little bit with your new version (so far only on my Beta 14 dev, test forum) and there is bunch of ideas for improvements:

Ability to edit and remove channels (edit colours, names...)
Option to set channel owners / moderators on potential edit channel view will be great!
I would split channels and private discussion. Let's say some tab or just divider with channels on top and chats below?
Ability to set order of public channels list (Example: I have "Main", "Support", "Chitchat" and then I want to add "Mod chat" between "Main" and "Support" - right now all new channels land on the end)
Indication about unread messages on channel view / private discussion view(bold channel name or something)?
Sort private channels (so private discussion with most frequent messages will appear on top)
Email notifications (users are able to set some email notification settings like: being mentioned, new private discussion starts etc)

I know - It's a lot... but - It's just bunch of ideas and wishes 😉

Who know? Maybe some day you will make it into premium extension (like let's say some basic features for free and then e-mail notifications / moderators options in paid one)? This extension have now huge potential!

You are amazing!

Here is more ideas and suggestions from me:

Separate, additional - full screen view (with currently online users):
Currently floating window is great on PC (but not ideal for mobile). Anyway - separate, full screen view will be great!

Wadera it seems as though you are running on Beta 14 somehow? Any chance you could give an idea of what your setup is?

Wadera

Bugs which I've found in last version:

I`ve got problem with scrolling when new messages comes (I need to scroll manually to see new ones).
when type longer message (more than 3 lines) - textfield going under the screen, so I can't see what I'm typing.

Great improvements (Thank you!)

chat on mobile is finally stick to footer instead of beeing hide on left menu
scrolling up to see more messages works fine on mobile (previously it didn't load older messages)

Oportunity to improve:

get full screen chat will be great UX improvement - expecially on mobile. . I've described here: Wadera
integrate with upload extension
get options to get e-mail notifications when someone open new private chat / mention me on main channel
reacts to messages
be able to get link to specific message would be great
respond to messages
search engine
hide chat (like chat between peoples or group of peoples - not channels) after leaving. Right now it's still on the list and showing notifications about new messages after leaving which is annoying.

Wadera

That's all what I've found so far

Oportunity to improve:

notification about new messages when chat is minimised (on chat bar? Separate notification icon)
notification about new messages on separate channel on mobile full screen mode (top bar?)

reacts to messages

respond to messages
search engine
night mode support

Wadera

by the way - could we somehow edit main message on top to get current descriptions, screenshots and installation information? 🙂 Or maybe we should make separate discussion?

Xelson

Wadera Yes, I've been thinking about it.
The update is already moving to release and is currently in beta, so we should create a separate discussion only after the extension is released.
Anyway, the extension went into public testing and now the new update for beta14 can be tested right now by upgrading it to the dev-master branch! https://github.com/Xelson/flarum-ext-chat ☁️

Installation

Via composer for development build:

composer require xelson/flarum-ext-chat:dev-master

Updating

Also via composer for development build:

composer require xelson/flarum-ext-chat:dev-master
php flarum migrate
php flarum cache:clear

Since I will be absent for quite a long time, @askvortsov agreed to support the extension. Many thanks to him for agreeing to help in my difficult situation!

Wadera

Littlegolden @Xelson Can you enable the Issue feature in GitHub ?

It ill be quite difficult to achive regarding to:

askvortsov

Hi everyone, quick update. I'm currently working through some refactorings / bugfixes, and plan to update this for the upcoming beta 15 release, at which point it will be formally released.

As I mentioned, compatibility will be for the upcoming beta 15. I'll release a beta version for testing with beta 14 tomorrow.

theportablegeek

askvortsov Sorry to bother you, I know you are busy, but I am wondering if I should still be running into errors when attempting to test out the dev-master on a fresh instance of beta 14.1?

askvortsov

Yeah, I still haven't gotten around to releasing a beta 14 version. Since beta 15 shiuld be coming out soon, I'll probably go straight to that.

theportablegeek

askvortsov absolutely understand. Thanks for your amazing work!
