New version - 1.70v session captcha

Features

1. In 1.69 was introduced drag & drop but IE users could not select any field. This issue was fixed in less than 24h. But if you are experiencing same issue I recommend to update.
2. In this version I added option to turn session cookies for form validation. Some users were reporting for getting spam messages. You just have to edit "chat configuration" -> "Use session captcha. LHC have to be installed on same domain or subdomain."
   and set 1. Please be sure that chat is running on the same domain or subdomain.

Here is an article related how invisible captcha is working there.

We are one years old!!!

Just looked at github history, so we are one years old. First commit was executed on december 8.

It was amazing year. In one year together we have build amazing peace of software with so many features it's hard to name them all. But thank you all for your support and donations and I can proudly say we are the best Open Source Live support. Why the best?

• Desktop (windows, mac, linux), Mobile (android, iphone), Browsers support.
• MVC structure, not an amateur coding style.
• Foundation CSS framework, responsive design.
• Amazin pro-active invitations, I stil find how amain these invitations works. If you use work hours you can almost completely automate all workflows.
• And many more...

Some statistic

• To build what you see took 707 comits in one year. It's more than 2 comits by day.
• 206 issues closed/solved
• Over 1k detected installs, who knows how many real installs are there :)

I ques I will take a small break for now. Only bug fixes for upcoming few weeks and perhaps few enchancements if I find it interesting :)

You can use this break to fill my github issues list with features requests if you are missing anything. So you influence development process.

Also perhaps anyone would like to make some video tutorials? I could post them there :)

http://ipinfodb.com - as geo IP provider

I have just integrated http://ipinfodb.com/ as one of available geo IP providers. So we have four possible geo IP providers.

• mod_geoip2 - if you are running vps i recommend to use this. It's local solution and it's the fastest and the most stable way.
• http://ipinfodb.com/ - new one, just integrated. You will have to regsitere to obtain API key
• http://freegeoip.net/ - free option, not requiring any registrations. But our server got IP ban, so on demo I'm using mode_geoip2 option.
• http://www.locatorhq.com/ip-to-location-api/index.php - not sure does is still works. :)

If you have any other reliable GEO IP provider let me know in comments :)
