Can't get chat to work

[davesaz]

I click on the scum chat link on the bottom of the screen. It opens a new page that asks me launch aim? Click yes, aim launches, nothing happens.

I don't think scum chat is active anymore.
Tbh I don't know why that link is still there.

Come join us in site chat

[davesaz]

Where is that? I can't find any link / instructions.

Go here and enable chat: https://forum.mafiascum.net/ucp.php?i=prefs&mode=view

Thanks. I can now stop bashing my head on a wall.
This ought to have a faq or wiki entry, and admins should edit the style page to get rid of the old inoperative link.

Is there a way to get rid of that new button that says "turn on chat" and "turn off chat"? Chat doesn't even work on my phone and I keep accidently clicking it instead of "view your posts".

What if we move it to the left of "View your posts" ?

I'd like to put it on the top right, but I'll have to have icons made for it to work over there.

[Kmd4390]

That's actually much better so far. Thanks

Site chat isn't showing up where it usually does now. I tried hitting "turn off chat" and then turning it back on and nothing.

I'm having the same issue. Resetting doesn't work, logging out and back in nothing either.
And yes, the option is set to 'on'.

[Iconeum]

It's back

[Kison]

Yep, sorry. It was an IE11 problem with the new emoji features.

Working now, thanks!
