Same here, test account to your forum by pm plz
While I'd love to share a test account, enabling your chatbox is currently causing a lot of problems forum wide. Posting replies takes ages (and when it's done, it posts a lot of duplicate posts) and editing posts also takes a long time. Unsure if the "loading..." is causing it though.

So I prefer I could give you a test account if I have direct contact with you (AIM, MSN, Skype, IRC, etc) as I don't wish to affect the forums with it's slowdowns.

What you are stating is strange, you are the only one that reported such problem...

I don't provide support through instant messaging sorry.

The clock in the right side is client side, that means your computer clock.
While the chats time is based on server side, that means your server computer clock with the timezone adjustments.

Therefore there can be differences between your server and your computer you know...

Then no can do, sorry. The "loading..." issue affects the entire forums, thus I cannot just re-enable it and wait minutes to hours or a day for you to come online and help with the issue. I do appreciate it, but I prefer not to affect the users what so ever.

I solved the issue so far by using 3.2.0 of the plugin with the 3.2.3 files. Most of the chatbox works fine again.

So you mean it comes from the 3.2.0 templates in that case ?

That's strange coz I didn't touch them much in the 3.2.1 and above versions.

Oh but btw I think you have my gtalk account id so you can contact me with it
