Hi, profile searches don't appear to be working. When clicking on link get message 'Sorry, there has been an error! '
My best wishes go out to the team that developed and implemented the new, much improved, Chat Rooms and those too few members that were prepared to help test it.

Hi, I no longer get the whisper icon displayed when I click on a member's name in the chatroom, I just get the 'View user profile' icon to the right of the member's name. This icon seems to have disappeared after the chat system was restarted earlier this the week.
There's a similar problem with the Desktop version, although here the whisper icon is initially displayed (and works) but it disappears at some stage during the session.
Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, Firefox , Flash , Flash plugin , Adobe Air 730

Can you open your chat settings (from the spanner icon in top right) and tell me if the "Whisper privacy" option is blank? If it is then you will need to change it to "Allow all" or "Authorised".
It's set to Allow all, however on opening the Chat Settings ' noticed that Settings / Show Whispers' dropdown was set to 'Inline with chat room'. When I amended the dropdown to ' In separate tabs' I got the Whisper icon back so that's fine now.
The desktop version is also behaving correctly as far as the whisper icon is concerned - although a new version installed installed when I went to test it. However Settings and font colour are still not remembered between sessions (unlike the Chatroom version).

Hi,
When I open a pop out window with sound the sound seems to be duplicated with a slight delay much like an echo. This 'echo' disappears when the pop out window is 'poped in'.
Cheers, Ted

Running Firefox under Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
In the latest update profiles are now opening in a new window rather than as a new tab in the window last opened.
The old chat still opens profiles in a new tab; I prefer this as it as all profiles are kept together in the same window.

Hi,
With regards to the dekstop error, can you uninstall the chat using Add/Remove programs, this normally happens because you had the Beta version of the desktop chat installed first, this needs to be uninstalled manually, once you've done this and installed the new desktop app, it should update automatically ok.
For the popup issue - there should be a setting in firefox to open new windows in a tab rather than an actual popup.
Thanks
Elliot
Hi Elliot,
Thanks for the reply. I've uninstalled the Desktop app and reloaded it an its now fine. However the settings and font colour are still not retained between sessions.
With regard to profiles opening in a new window rather than tabs:
o firefox is set to 'open new windows in a tab'. I can send you a screen image if you like
o desktop chat version and old desktop opens profiles in tabs but the not the new desktop
Your efforts are appreciated, Ted

I have Desktop version 1.0 13 installed, running under Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
When clicking on the desktop icon I'm asked if I want to upgrade to version On clicking 'yes' it seems to download the update but get the message:
Download Failed
There was an error downloading the update. Error# 16824

I can send you a screen print of the message if that is any help.

I didnt see your post before I did mine but I agree and have winged too!
people ought to vote with they'r feet and only use old chat over the next month!
Wots xx
much prefer the old chat format ........new one is very childishly laid out and having to click on all sorts just to get to read a profile!! .......... In fact the old chat format was probably the best on any site (thats why people used it).
Sorry S/H ....... but the new format is not very good or user friendly - its swingers and ordinary everyday people logging on to use it ....... not PC experts.

Well I prefer the new chat and it seems that already most people are using it. The old rooms are now quite quiet. People do seem to be voting with their feet :thumbup:
Hi
I've just tried to open the Desktop chat for the first time in about 3 days. It wanted downloaded a new version but this failed to install with the message:
There was an error downloading the update. Error# 16824
Windows 7 Prof, 64 bit.
Am planning to go along with female friend, anyone else thinking of going along?
Hi, yesterday evening I tried the new Desktop version and this version isn't saving settings between 'sessions'; for example font colour, font size or camera size aren't saved. Ted

Hi, just tried the beta Chat and got the message "There was an error authenticating with the chat service. Please contact support"
Hi Elliot,
Couple of things: the Desktop chat room settings (cameras / camera quality / and font size), so are the Text Formating options.
I also wonder if it would be worthwhile showing the desktop version somewhere on the panel.
However I think it's a great improvement - thanks
These are not remembered between sessions, don't know whether they were in previous versions
Whilst the pop out cam on the browser version is now working fine, the desktop version doesn't allow the popped out window to be resized; it can only be maximised or the original pop up size. Running Windows 7 Prof 64 bit

New bug:-
Desktop Chat
When setting a text colour (blue) in the main room - when you whisper it defaults back to standard (black)..

Does the same for dark blue in Desktop, browser chat fine
Thanks for the comprehensive reply; I may try applying the 'fix' shown in this uTube
Whilst I can see the chat in my iPod Touch (G3 iPod, iOS4 software) using wifi, I can't see any cams. Is this because iPod / Apple don't support flash?
The 'old' chat room didn't work at all.

Where in Lincs is it? :lickface:

If you wish to attend, a polite message along with a contact number will get you the location.
Obviously, we cannot just name the venue in public, as is the norm for most socials.
Yours,

Hi, I was thinking of the general location rather than the venue in order to see whether I would have time to get there from NG25, Cheers, Ted
This is still not working although have Extras and it isn't on this morning's bug list
Running Firefox 3.6.8 under Windows 7 64 bit pro
When in private room I can still see the main room cams (The Pool) and get the sound from the main room.
Can't get the pop up camera in 'The Pool' to work.
Otherwise quality of cams is fine
