We have updated chuPPo Messenger application.
Update summary:
- Skin, smilies change support
- Custom languages support
- Usage statistics
- Usage tracking now based on successful IM sessions between members, not on simultaneous users online like before.
Log in to admin area. Now you can see a separate tab for Messenger with its own settings. Feel free to check and let us know if it works well for you.
As you might have noticed we released a new skin for chuPPo Chat.
This skin will be default for all new chuPPo Chat installations, existing customers can activate it in chuPPo admin area.
We think user interface tweaking can never be too much. Together with the skin, chat application has got some minor interface improvements. Feel free to comment if your users like the new app. We are going to clear out and polish every single detail based on what your users say. Since community business is always user-centric, you might want to gather some feedback from your chatters.
Good luck in your endeavors!
OK, it’s just about time for Skalfa Claus to raise his tousled head out of development docs and announce the December revision of SkaDate: version 6.560
Here’s what we got for you in this release:

- Username choice blacklist (admin, office, support, etc…)

- Index page thumbnails resize fixed
- In the match template of the activity scheduler, the admin can set the amount of matches to be sent, and the match list is randomized each time an email is scheduled
- Profile custom HTML can be turned off
- AJAX chat user sex is displayed with an icon
- Admin can see which photos are password-protected or friends-only

- Total number of site users statistics
- Birthday list
- URL field type added
- Multiple admins
- A snowfall of minor fixes, optimizations, and enhancements.
Features and enhancements for this release were chosen primarily from our customers feedback, partially from what you guys asked on this blog. Keep up the good work so we can do the product even better.
If you don’t have anything to play with during Christmas holidays this version of SkaDate is perfect choice. Run to check demo and submit your feedback.
Now, that’s important. New update from chuPPo crew:
- Private messages in public chat rooms. A must-have feature for private messaging without going to another room or launching additional private messaging applications.
- User-created rooms that can also be password protected. Flexible configuration in the admin panel.
These candies are already there in your working copy of chat, run now to check. Again, hold your breath and wait for more news.
We have also put chat features page which we will update along the further development. You can watch this blog for updates and suggest new reasonable features.
One of our customers found a couple bugs recently. I mean a couple real program code bugs, not common misconfigurations or interface shortcomings. A rare thing to catch nowadays since at the solid sixth version (SkaDate Unity) we seem to have figured out most of them, current updates are all about minor interface tweaks, existing features rearrangement for better usability and more powerful administration tools.
The fixes are going to be included in the upcoming December revision, as well as a new portion of micro-enhancements. If you have a useful new feature to add, feel free to suggest it after learning what’s already there and how they work.
Announcing the new build today. This is remarkable for having a lot of new candies since the inception of SkaDate 5 SuccessPoint.
