Because of that it isn't possible to preserve old messages and settings when upgrading Quick Chat 1.xx to Quick Chat 2.xx.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= 1.  After upgrading Quick Chat 2.xx to 3.xx what will happen with my old chat messages and settings? =
All messages and settings will be preserved. Note that because of added support for local avatar plugins existing messages will not have their authors avatar. Messages posted after successful upgrade will have correct author avatar.

= 2.  After upgrading Quick Chat 1.xx to 2.xx or 3.xx what will happen with my old chat messages and settings? =
Quick Chat 2.xx and 3.xx has new features like list of online users that couldn't be successfully implemented on top of Quick Chat 1.xx. Because of that it isn't possible to preserve old messages and settings when upgrading Quick Chat 1.xx to Quick Chat 2.xx. If you need your old messages you should backup your data from "wp_quick_chat" table inside your WordPress database using Phpmyadmin before upgrading to Quick Chat 2.xx.

= 3.  How to embed Quick Chat into post or page? =
You can do that by placing [quick-chat] (including [] brackets) inside post or page where you want your chat to appear. See [WordPress shortcodes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode) for more info.

= 4.  How can I control Quick Chat sidebar widget height? =
You do this by editing your Quick Chat widget settings on ’Appearance’ -> ’Widgets’ page. Default sidebar widget height is 400px.

= 5.  How can I control Quick Chat height when it is embedded into post or page? =
You control Quick Chat height by giving height attribute to the [quick-chat] shortcode. For example to have 600px high Quick Chat window embedded on your page you would add [quick-chat height="600"] inside page where you want your chat to appear. If you omit height attribute default height is 400px.

= 6.  How can I control what chat room is shown on my Quick Chat sidebar widget? =
You do this by changing your Quick Chat widget settings on ’Appearance’ -> ’Widgets’ page inside WordPress admin dashboard. So if you want your sidebar widget chat to show chat room identified by word "musictalk", you will put "musictalk" word inside "Chat room" text box in your Quick Chat widget settings on your WordPress Appearance -> Widgets page. Every chat (sidebar or in-post) with "musictalk" room attribute will show the same content. Default behavior for sidebar widget is to show predefined chat room identified by the "default "word".

= 7.  How can I control what chat room is shown when Quick Chat is embeded into post or page? =
In this case you control chat room by giving room attribute to the [quick-chat] shortcode. So if you want your embedded chat to show chat room identified by word "musictalk" you will display this chat like this: [quick-chat room="musictalk"]. Every chat (sidebar or in-post) with "musictalk" room attribute will show this same content. If you omit room shortcode attribute, default behavior is to show predefined chat room identified by the "default" word.

= 8.  I want to change user list position when Quick Chat is embeded into post or page? =
To use embedded chat with user list on the left you can embedd it into your post or page using following shortcode: [quick-chat userlist_position="left"]. You can also use "top" and "right" values for userlist_position shortcode attribute.

= 9.  I want to change user list position when using Quick Chat sidebar widget? =
You do this by changing your Quick Chat widget settings on ’Appearance’ -> ’Widgets’ page inside WordPress admin dashboard. There you can adjust "User list position" option.

= 10. Can you tell me more about Quick Chat Avatar support =
Quick Chat supports both local avatars supplied by local avatar plugins and gravatar.com avatars. I recommend [Simple Local Avatars](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simple-local-avatars/) WordPress plugin.

= 11. My theme has no widget support. How can I embed Quick Chat into my web site using PHP? =
To embed Quick Chat on your page you can place `<?php echo quick_chat(400, 'default', 1, 'left', 0, 0, 1, 1, 1); ?>` inside your theme PHP files. You can replace "400" with wanted Quick Chat message history window height and 'default' with your chat room name. The third parameter should be 1 when you want to display user list (0 otherwise) and fourth parameter will decide where will user list be placed ('right', 'left' or 'top'). Fifth parameter will decide will smilies be displayed (1) or hidden (0). Sixth parameter can take value (0) to hide send button and (1) to display it. Last two parameters can take value (0) to hide chat for logged in users (7th parameter) or guests (8th parameter) and (1) to display it. Last parameter determine will avatars be displayed (1) or hidden (0).

= 12. I'm using WordPress Javascript optimizing plugin like WP Minify or WP Super Cache and Quick Chat does not work on my site? =
Quick Chat isn't compatible with any of the Javascript mangle/compact WordPress plugins like WP Minify. These plugins do their best to compact Javascript code but sometimes shortcuts they take while doing their work leave Quick Chat without correct Javascript code. Also because of its real time nature Quick Chat currently doesn't support WordPress caching plugins like WP Super Cache. If you have problems with Quick Chat you might have to disable those plugins.

= 13. What are the requirements for Quick Chat audio notification features? =
Quick Chat can use sound to notify you of incoming messages. For this feature to work you need modern HTML5 audio tag enabled browser like Mozilla Firefox 3.5+, Google Chrome 6+, Opera 10.5+ or Internet Explorer 9 (IE works but not recommended).

= 14. Can I change messages notification sound? =
Sure you can. You just replace "message-sound.mp3", "message-sound.ogg" and "message-sound.wav" from your "wp-content/plugins/quick-chat/sounds" directory with your own message notification sound files. Three sound file types are necessary because not all HTML5 audio tag enabled browsers support all audio file formats.

= 15. I want to customize CSS styles used to differentiate between admin users, loggedin users and guest users messages? =
You can do that by modifing quick-chat.css file inside your "wp-content/plugins/quick-chat/css" directory. Some CSS knowledge is required.

= 16. How should I configure timeout options inside General section of Quick Chat admin options? =
Generally the lower you go with timing options the more stress is put to your server but your chat is more responsive. Default values are optimal so please don't go overboard with making them much lower.

= 17. How to display send button for embedded chat? =
To control send button visibility for embedded chat you can use "send_button" shortcode attribute. Default "send_button" short code attribute value is "0" to hide send message button by default. To embed Quick Chat with send button displayed you would use following shortcode [quick-chat send_button="1"].

= 18. How to display send button when using Quick Chat sidebar widget? =
Go to your Quick Chat widget settings by clicking ’Appearance’ -> ’Widgets’ on your WordPress admin dashboard and find Quick Chat widget settings on one of your sidebars. There you can check "Include send button" input check box to display send message button.

= 19. How do I specify user groups (logged in, guests) which will be able to see my chat room when chat room is embedded using Quick Chat shortcode? =
When using embedded chat you can use "loggedin_visible" and "guests_visible" shortcode attributes whose value can be "0" to hide chat room for specified user group or "1" to display it. Default value for both "loggedin_visible" and "guests_visible" shortcode atributes is "1", so this means that if you omit this shortcode attributes chat will be displayed to all users. For example to display chat room only to logged in users and hide it for guests you would use [quick-chat loggedin_visible="1" guests_visible="0"] shortcode.

= 20. How do I specify user groups (logged in, guests) that will be able to see my chat room when using Quick Chat sidebar widget? =
When using sidebar widget you can control visibility settings for every Quick Chat widget instance by navigating to ’Appearance’ -> ’Widgets’ page inside WordPress admin dashboard. There you will find "Visible to logged in users" and "Visible to guest users" checkboxes for every Quick Chat widget instance. Default value for both checkboxes is checked so this means that if you add new Quick Chat sidebar widget instance by default this widget instance will be visible to all users.

= 21. How do I enable or disable Quick Chat translating abilities? =
To enable Quick Chat translation features you must have Bing Translator AppID and paste it into "Bing Translator AppID" input box inside Quick Chat admin options. You can obtain your AppID [here](http://www.bing.com/developers/appids.aspx). To disable Quick Chat translation features just delete your AppID from admin option input box.

= 22. Why is Bing Translator API used to provide translation abilities instead of Google Language API? =
Google Language API does have more languages and Google is generally little less evil towards open source technologies than Microsoft, we all know that. But unfortunately Google decided to deprecate and shut down free Google Translate API by the end of year 2011. Because of that I had no choice but to use Bing Translator API to provide Quick Chat with message translation abilities until something better comes along.

= 23. How do I use private chat? =
To initiate private chat with another chat user click his chat user name on the list of chat users. Simultaneously you can have multiple one on one private chat sessions. Quick Chat administrator users can control who is allowed to initiate private chat session (logged in users and/or guests) from Quick Chat admin options.

= 24. How to hide smilies container for embedded chat? =
To control smilies container visibility for embedded chat you can use "smilies" shortcode attribute. Default "smilies" short code attribute value is "1" to display smilies container by default. To embed Quick Chat with smilies container hidden you would use following shortcode [quick-chat smilies="0"].

= 25. How to hide smilies container when using Quick Chat sidebar widget? =
Go to your Quick Chat widget settings by clicking ’Appearance’ -> ’Widgets’ on your WordPress admin dashboard and find Quick Chat widget settings on one of your sidebars. There you can check "Hide smilies" input check box to display send message button.

= 26. Where can I find my chat room transcripts? =
You can find all of your chat room transcript files inside your "wp-content/plugins/quick-chat/transcripts" directory.

= 27. How do I hide avatars with my Quick Chat embedded using shortcode? =
When using embedded chat you use "avatars" shortcode attribute whose value can be "0" to hide avatars or "1" to show them (default value). To embed Quick Chat with avatars hidden you would use following shortcode [quick-chat avatars="0"].

= 28. How do I hide avatars with my Quick Chat sidebar widget? =
When using sidebar widget you can control your Quick Chat widget settings on ’Appearance’ -> ’Widgets’ page inside WordPress admin dashboard. There you can control are avatars enabled (default) or not.

= 29. What's up with the private message clean up available from the inside of Quick Chat options, private chat options section? =
Even if you can't see them, Quick Chat private chat invitations and private chat messages are left inside your WordPress database after private chat sessions and can in time pile up to slow down your Quick Chat. You should periodically clean those to keep Quick Chat database sparkling clean (preferably when no private chat sessions are in progress).

= 30. How do I enable or disable country flags on my chat user list? =
Quick Chat is using [Quick Flag](http://www.techytalk.info/wordpress-plugins/quick-flag/) WordPress plugin to resolve IP address to country flag so to enable this feature you must install and activate Quick Flag plugin. To hide country flag display you can deactivate Quick Flag plugin or enable "Disable Quick Flag WordPress plugin integration" checkbox in Quick Count admin options.
