This modification is released for free, and as such we don't officially support it; however, as time permits we will try to offer support on it. We will NOT be monitoring this thread on a daily basis, your best bet for a fast reply would be to go post here.

Common Issues/Topics
Chat Bar Don't Show Up?
Have you configured the usergroup settings? This is the most common issue we see, and 99% of the time it is due to usergroup settings not being configured properly. So if your bar is not showing up, please verify your usergroup settings before reporting it as an issue.

Messages Don't Show Up?
We are aware of an issue causing messages to not show up for some people, and are looking into fixes.

Modification Has Conflict With Another Product
There is always a chance that two products will conflict with each other! We are aware of some, but please feel free to tell us about any products you find to conflict via our Bug Tracker on our site.

Chat Doesn't Support Certain Characters
The chat can only support the characters your board itself can support! If you would like to support certain characters, you must have your board using a charset that supports them. We have only ever once noticed a chat that didn't support every character the board did, and we are looking in it.

Chat Kills My Server
We have tested the chat extensively for server friendliness, and have found it to be very gentle on servers. We have seen the script run with hundreds of active users without putting hardly any load on the server. However, an improperly configured server may result in any reverse-AJAX/push-AJAX/Comet based chat script killing the server. If you find that your server slows down after installation, you may want to talk with your host about raising your MySQL and Apache Max Connection Limits to a more appropriate amount!

Hi, I installed this chat, then it broke my forum. So I tried to uninstall it, but I get an SQL error

MySQL Error : Table 'upperseo_fffvb.iwt_chat_updatestream' doesn't exist

And no matter how much I try to import the xml again to overwrite, it never creates this table. So I can neither install or uninstall it.

This Addon for 3.8.7 ???

Sorry, the settings failed to load.  If you continue to see this error, please notify an administrator.

Eeeh <.< I just installed this addon and it killed my forum... I throws me Database Error and I dont know what to do

I recently installed this mod and our users like it very much. We have found, however, that it causes our VBulletin v4.2 forums to freeze for those who use IE9 (Windows 7). There are no reported issues with Chrome or Firefox. I disabled every mod on our site other than Ideal Chat Lite, and the issue still exists - and there is no issue when Ideal Chat Lite is disabled.

Anyone else experience a similar issue? Any work around known for this?

As I stated, our members enjoy the chat program.. far better than the typical plan AJAX chat, but we cannot run it right now due to this conflict.. Help!

[ArsMagnum]

OK, nevermind my last post, it's all fixed now <.<
But now I have a question.
Can it be put on "spanish". It does not accept ñ or

[ArsMagnum]

Ok, forget it <.< it IS the chat the one who's cousing problems.
Can someone help me with this plz <.< when I install it, it works fine for a couple of minutes, and then the hole page crushes and send me this problem:

[Hippy]

everyone should read this thread .. before installing this mod.. Please
Its a great Idea .. but no support or updates since the first person stated the problems and issues with server load and errors...
Regards

This mod needs to be removed from vbulletin.org. No support, locks up the forums and a major pain in the ass to repair the forum. Page upon page of people having issues and the creator is not helping resolve them.

Is this mod works with 3.8x version
