Michael Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 when i added in guest support into babble, the only reason i did this was cause the IPS chat had this "feature", but the problems i've run into is this, babble treats each user connected as its own "object". this is fine for the logged in members, i have a basis to configure everything off of, but when it comes to guest i have to "build" this object, and it makes features like "whisper" "ban" "ignore" etc, really messy in the code. if i keep this feature in babble 3, it will be greatly diminished and they wont have the full range of abilities a logged in user will have. what do you all think?

Kjell Iver Johansen Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 It was very difficult to answer that question correctly! For me you can just remove chat for guests.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 yeah it is poorly worded isn't it? lol, should proof read before i impulsively post something (was going over babble code, marking stuff to keep/redo/remove in version 3 and came across the insanity that is guest in the code).

Pit Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The ability for guests to see the chat that's going on, yes. The ability for guests to actually chat, no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
