New Chat Beta

Dear Lushies, Every time I log in, the space at the top is back for the cams even though I changed the settings. Any ideas how I can get rid of them without re-doing the settings each time I log on? Thanks Lixa

It is on the list, but for now that’s what you’ll need to do.

I don't suppose anyone ever thought to unveil this new chatroom set up on a server which wasn't in production and thus live - so the admins could experiment and fine tune or make changes to what would be a 95% completed chat product before it was rolled out to the production chat servers. Like how 100% of the rest of the computing world (with any credentials and experience) would choose to roll out a new product. Instead this is like Microsoft rolling out a new OS and asking the current customer base to make suggestions to improve the lousy 1st efforts.

It was, for almost month from the 18th April (see OP). It was then put on as standard maybe two weeks ago.

Can you provide details on your device, OS, internet browser, and also if you are using a private/incognito browser? (I've not had to re-do this on my account, nor on a test account without mod privileges).

Thanks

Laptop: Win 10, Desk top: Win 7 (yes, I know); Chrome; no P/I. It does not show on my Iphone w/ Chrome, but the layout is so truncated, it is hard to judge.

MacOS, Ventura 13.1, Safari Version 16.2 (18614.3.7.1.5), Not sure about private/incog browser. Thank you

Page keeps freezing up.

Running Samsung s23

Hello. Using iPhone. Everytime I open someone’s profile the room freezes. I don’t recognize it until you decide nothing new is posting in room and then reset.

So, I logged into chatroom through one of my mobile devices(TCL/Samsung Internet Browser)

I wonder if users, especially the older ones, are zoomed in/font size is greater which makes their experience difficult?

After this small conversation, I still don't find the chat to be bothersome.

How the site looks on desktop mode through mobile phone(which I don't use at all, unless, necessary but for lush, not needed)

Moments ago, I heard the dingding @ mention notification in rooms, twice.

What a surprise.

× clappy hands ×

Even though I've been active in room less than an hr but, it warmed up and worked.

I'm sure I am not alone in experiencing two problems with the new site

the first is the disconnects, I find I not longer get the old disconnects, but that the site will just stop and hang with no new posts or alerts, until I close and reconnect - which clears all of the chat, and also any PM chats that were in progress - this seems worse than the old system that reconnected me where I was

the second is a general slowness - if I have a bunch of alerts, rather than being able to whizz through them, I find myself having to wait for the whole site to load each time, it maybe only adds 10 seconds per alert, but it adds up to a slow experience

Why they called it Beta I'll never know,,it should have been called Worse,,cos its crap,,i go to a room and within 2 minutes its back in the bedroom every time i change to a room back to bedroom for no reason... It's crap..

Mmhhmm, it does as I copied and pasted this users thread post in chat and got the above.

It's giving indent in paragraph.

Chat rooms show 0 users, no rooms, and shows me offline?

I have reported this for Admin & Dev attention.

How do I look at a profile in a new tab? That was default in old chat, now I lose the chat room completely, and can only get back with the back button. Even tried "open in new tab, but that just creates another copy of the chat tab.

Just click the name or image when the pop-out window opens. It will open automatically in a new tab.

Pretty sure he's using a mobile device - it doesn't work and hasn't for at least 2 weeks.

Holding and clicking on the 'View Profile' link does indeed only open up a new tab copy of the chatrooms.

It does work if you press the name or image though Boomy.

In that case, the 'View Profile' link is defunct, and it's no wonder it's causing confusion?

Oh I absolutely agree.

It would be lovely if the room names were sorted alphabetically.

Thanks!

It needs lots of improvement and the site as well. Both have severe lag times which never was a problem before you started changing things the last couple of months. One thing that could be fix is when you click someones name it show what level they are (gold silver etc). The way to see private chats is a hassle and reduces screen size. Also last few times I have been in it I had to reset my setting each time to turn of the camera too. Its not saving them and it did at first.

Hi, my PMs have suddenly stopped working. I’m not receiving them and others are not receiving from me either. They worked earlier! Thanks

I can seem to send PMs it appears to be completely down

PMs are, apparently, fixed.

The new feature of the popup profile window when scrolling the members list bar of the members in the room, is distracting. It hides the portion of the list where the mouse is located and requires moving the mouse away from the list to see the list again. It was more convenient before when one had to click on the name of the person to see the profile window.
