Missing Plugins for Chat

[Virago]

All of a sudden I can't get into chat. I keep getting a message saying that, "Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page."
I download the plugin and still no success. I restarted my computer and nothing. Downloaded again, and nothing. Help?

[Virago]

bumping this thread, hoping someone who can help me sees it :seeingstars:

[Virago]

Thanks Jack

I uninstalled anything I had associated with Java and then reinstalled, still wasn't successful.
Uninstalled again and again reinstalled. And finally it works. :)

Thank you!

As a coffee addict I'm so disappointed that anything named Java would treat me this cruelly. lol I'm going back to motorcycles. Something I understand. lol

so... how do you uninstall old java script? apparently hitting the "uninstall" button is not enough. It always stops at "this action has been interrupted please try again later" and it claims to be a corrupt file.

I can't access chat at all - it opens a new window, but the window hangs as a blank window. No comment about missing plug-in, java, etc. BUT is also states 0 people in chat. Perhaps it's an issue with the chat function?

Does anyone know? I will try making certain I have the most up to date Java, etc. Thanks in advance!!!!

Sometimes Java installs well on one browser but not the other. It may be worthwhile to try a different browser as that sometimes resolves the issue.

I went into my Control Panel and uninstalled from there. Then reinstalled

Also, keep in mind this is not java script. It's just java. These are two different things. Javascript is a scripting language that is used for quick features on a webpage while java is a full programming language.

If it is javascript that you are trying to uninstall, that is the wrong one. This should be java or specifically the Java Runtime Environment (or JRE).

Rocky, have you gone to your control panel and uninstalled?

I have this issue. Crome lets me use the old plugin so I can use chat tho.

It appears that the list of possible avatars is no longer available, in the chatroom. Was this deliberate, or is there a screwup in the system, somewhere?

[Admin]

When the chatroom auto-renewed, it renewed at a lower package than what we had last year and that lower package does not include avatars.

I have opened a ticket with the company to get this corrected.

Guy, if you right click somewhere on the page and hit refresh, it should get you in. It also maybe that you aren't waiting long enough for the chat page to load (I found that a bit last night if I waited an extra 10-20 seconds it would appear).

[FtMGuy]

just last night this happened but there is no options anymore on my site, just to click on chat no pull down for chat at all no options to see who is chatting or to float or use the same windo, just click on the link and it brings up the floating chat but no access, I left the floating window open for 10 mins +

[Linus]

Can you log out, clear all cookies and try again. If that doesn't work, can you try a different browser?

[Daktari]

Thanks so much for all you're doing Linus. I'm not having a problem getting into chat or anything like that. However, do you know if the 'Who's chatting' function can be restored at some point in the future? :chaplin:

[FtMGuy]

Thanks Linus, will give that a try, I appreciatie all your time and work you put in to this site ! Thanks!
Also Princess suggested I used the chat window on the home page that does get me in to the chat room but not in the floating chat which I like better because I can adjust the size better
will keep trying though!

As posted elsewhere, we're working on it.

Sorry Linus, haven't seen it elsewhere about this particular function. Apologies for repeating. :chaplin:

[DaddyNik12]

why is the chat room so huge when you enter in there ? :?

[Medusa]

:praying:

We are working on the chat room. We have been for the last several days. We have posted about it several times on the forums and I have gone into chat to spread the word several times.

There are going to be kinks while we work on it so please just bear with us for a bit!

[DaddyNik12]

thanks medusa :) I havent been on much the past few days and was aware
good luck !

If you are experiencing trouble getting into the chat room from the main bfp page and clicking on chat, you may have to click on a forum then click on chat. that is how I got in today as they are working on the chat issues. So, try that and see if it works until everything is fixed as much as it can be.
