Hi, is it possible to have some kind of administration in the box? e.g. A clear chatbox would be nice.
Thanks.

dwees commentedDo you mean like a particular user (an admin user) could clear all of the chatblock messages from the database using a button? Could you be more specific please?
Thanks,
Dave
Comment #2
FreeFox commentedThanks for the quick response.
Yes that is what i meant. The possibility to give a certain role an extra button beside the [Send] button to clear the full chat.
I noticed too that it would be very helpful if there were two other possibilities:
- Deny chatting for certain users, I mean typing text to the chat. But they should still be able to read. I know the access has view and post access settings but I mean some kind of blacklist. All user behave except a few so ...
- When typing text in the input box and you press the enter key quickly then you can post the same text again and again (spamming). So maybe a filter to prevent the same user to send the same text within xx seconds
That are the most important things I miss now.
Thanks for the nice module.

icecreamyou commentedRegardless of where the button is, I would also like to have some kind of "Clear Chat" option, since I don't have access to the database to do it manually on one site I'm building.
Comment #4
FreeFox commentedA small extra button beside the [Send] button with the code "TRUNCATE TABLE `chatblock`" would do the trick I guess. Maybe an entry in the settings page to define which roll can see this button.
Dwees could you please implement this?
Thanks in advance

dwees commentedYeah this is crucial. I'll try and work this into the next release.
Comment #6
doitDave commentedManual DB cleanup will be in the first stable release. But D5 will be no longer pursued unless anyone else wants to do that.
Comment #7
doitDave commentedThe feature has been implemented and will be available with latest dev snapshot.
