Going real time and other plans in a few next days

So I have been working hard to implement few more nice features

• NodeJS + Redis will be let us to eliminate admin interface sync calls. Basically it's an ajax call executed every 10 seconds. So for each opertator it's 6 calls every minute. If there is let say three operators it will let to save 18 calls every minute or 1000 ajax calls every hour and if work day is 8h it will let to save 8000 ajax request. It will be added into cloud hosting offer in a few days. This update is already available at github https://github.com/LiveHelperChat/NodeJS-Helper I have nothing to hide from you :)
• SSL will be added to whole livehelperchat.com project in a few days including cloud hosting offer. Just to little hours in a day to do all the stuff.
• If anyone is interesting in automated hosting plugin see this forum thread http://forum.livehelperchat.com/viewtopic.php?id=686
• Future plans would include eliminating calls for online visitors list and somehow checkmessage from operator calls in front end site. But really not sure then.

Goodluck and happy hacking :)

Cloud hosting of Live Helper Chat

Just wanted to let you know that during one day I did something amazing.

1. I have integrated invoices, paypal, and prepared http://livehelperchat.com/order/now for all who wants to have a personal demo of Live Helper Chat or just want that I hosted their Live Helper Chat.
2. This hosting was done with Automated Hosting plugin. New version is coming in a few next days with paypal and invoices stuff. Just like my hosting enviroment. I just need to cleanup code. So everything you find here is 100% open source and you can make yourself everything.

So now if you want to support Live Helper Chat you can either donate as many of you did, or you can just order hosting plan.

Goodluck stay tooned for automated hosting plugin updates :)

demo is now NodeJs powered

I have moved Live Helper Chat realted stuff to separate droplet on digitalocean.com hosting I have also enabled NodeJs support for demo. Enjoy real time chatting.

Let me know if you notice any issues :)

Few usability enhancements

Just implemented few usability enhancements without required database update

1. Now if there appears unread message browser notification will be shown. Sound will be played.
2. If chat is assigned to the same department, let say you are using chat workflow, it will play sound notification again.
3. Unread messages chat list limit increased to 20 items instead of 10
4. Chat popup window was syncing admin interface although it does not had any place to show this data. It's fixed also now.

So seems all at the moment.

NodeJS extension and Automated hosting plugin

These two extension now is fully compatible, that means that automated hosting snapshot at digitalocean is now NodeJS powered. Also you can find new version of NodeJS extension at
