 * Hi Jacques,
    Trying to activate the “Chat” in your plugin (Tchat). Doesn’t seem
   to work-I tested it out with another user. What could be the problem? It just
   says “Pedido de chat enviada. Experar…” and the chat window just sits there without
   doing anything.
 * Regards,
    Sanjay

    - Click the button Chat. Small window appears with “Chat request sent. Wait …”
    - Few seconds after, the other person see the same window with your photo and
      two buttons : “Accept” & “Ignore”. He click Accept.
    - The message appears in your window : “Demande de Tchat acceptée. Vous pouvez
      commencer.” (I have to translate this).
    - You can chat.

 * Hi Jacques,
    Yes, tried this, the window just says “Pedido de chat enviada, esperar…”
   and doesn’t connect. No “Accept” or “Ignore”. It just sits there. SOmething with
   hosting company? Or users need photo? Or it is same IP, could that be a problem?
   I tried with two different IPs didn’t work either.
 * By the way, the Spanish Translation is:
 * “Pedido de Tchat aceptado. Puedes empezar”
 * Also, note that it is “Pedido de Chat Enviado. Esperar…”
    The word is “Enviado”
   not “Enviada” [male/female-Pedido is Male]
 * Thanks

 * Open your website with two differents browsers on the same computer. For example,
   Firefox and Chromium.
    Log a Rencontre user (men) on Firefox. Log another user(
   girl) on Chromium. Then try to chat between this two browsers and tell me what
   takes place on the **two** windows.

 * Hi Jacques,
    Yes, I did that…nothing happens..just the same window saying “Pedido
   de Chat enviada…esperar”. Both sides show that window if I click on the “Chatear”
   on the profile.

 * I tried on several sites in several languages (Spanish of Chile) and everything
   works.
    Do you have a folder wp-content/uploads/tchat/ ? Is JQuery loaded in 
   your theme ?

 * Bon Jour Jacques,
 * >>Do you have a folder wp-content/uploads/tchat/ ?
    I have a folder wp-content/
   uploads/tchat/ , yes. It is empty (no files in it).
 * >>Is JQuery loaded in your theme ?
 * I believe so, but I am not sure. I am using the standard twentythirteen theme,
   the one which you have used on at least one site for the plugin. The code for
   the functions.php file has two lines which have the string “jquery”:
 *     ```
       // Adds Masonry to handle vertical alignment of footer widgets.
       	if ( is_active_sidebar( 'sidebar-1' ) )
       		wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery-masonry' );
   
       	// Loads JavaScript file with functionality specific to Twenty Thirteen.
       	wp_enqueue_script( 'twentythirteen-script', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/functions.js', array( 'jquery' ), '2014-03-18', true );
       ```
   
 * It is basically this one here:
    [https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/master/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen/functions.php](https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/master/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen/functions.php)
 * I also tried to put the google jquery, as mentioned in this article
    [http://www.quickonlinetips.com/archives/2013/11/wordpress-jquery-to-google-hosted-jquery/](http://www.quickonlinetips.com/archives/2013/11/wordpress-jquery-to-google-hosted-jquery/)
 * I inserted this code at the bottom of the theme’s function.php
 *     ```
       if( !is_admin()){
       wp_deregister_script('jquery');
       wp_register_script('jquery', ("//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"), array(), null, true);
       wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
       }
       ```
   
 * The chat still didn’t work.
 * I also tried inserting just the
    `wp_enqueue_script('jquery');`
 * and the chat didn’t work.
 * Do you want to look at it from your end, right on my site (solos24.com)?
    I have
   two test users, one male the other female. You can test with them. The userids
   are juan lisa the password for both is france
 * I have another plugin which displays a music playlist from soundcloud…I disabled
   it to rule out a conflict, and it didn’t solve the chat problem either.
 * I am using WP 3.9.2 with this twentythirteen theme.
 * Thanks as always,
    Sanjay

 * Hi Sanjay,
    I have tried with your elements. That doesn’t work. JQuery is OK.
   There are no files in uploads/tchat/ ; It is not normal. Try to see CHMOD and.
   htaccess. Your website is not clean (it is even unsafe).

 * Hi Jacques,
    Ok, have asked the hosting company to look into CHMOD and .htaccess.
 * About the clean code part-yes I know, I have very little experience in php/css
   type coding, and to get things off the ground fast I have taken a chance…once
   traffic gets sticky will clean up the code (or ask someone’s help to do it).

 * Oh sorry Sanjay, I just said that it is not clean in term of security. I didn’t
   speak about the code.

 * Hi Jacques,
    Ok, no problem…will take up the security issue later…
 * Ok, here is what I got from the hosting company.
 * I set the CHMOD permissions to 755 for all files and all directories in and below
   root.
 * Created .htaccess, that was not there. It is now in the root directory of the
   wordpress install.
 * Checked the chat..still doesn’t work 🙁 seems to be something else.

 * One more thing Jacques…I am using a plugin to display soundcloud playlist on 
   the site
    [https://wordpress.org/plugins/alligator-popup/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/alligator-popup/)
 * I hope that is not causing conflict with Rencontre in any way. I have checked
   it…deactivate Alligatorpopup and tried to use the Chat, it didn’t work. But just
   so you have the most complete information I thought I would let you know that
   I am using this plugin.
 * Rencontre and Alligatorpopup are the only two plugins I am using.
 * Thanks

 * Hi Sanjay,
    I confirm that the problem come from your installation. Look at this:
   [http://solos24.com/wp-content/plugins/rencontre/](http://solos24.com/wp-content/plugins/rencontre/)
   Primo, it’s not safe to see that. Secundo, **where is inc/ folder**. If you test
   your site with Firebug, rencontre_tchat.php appear “not fond”. Regards,

 * Hello Jacques,
    Here is the reply from the hosting company (Tmzhosting, they 
   have lots of wordpress sites): ————————- It seems that you have modified all 
   of your files to be with 755 permission which is a strong security issue.
 * I have now reverted the changes and set the files with default permissions 644
   and the folder with 755 permissions.
 * <<an be seen…that is not right…it should not be visible.>>
 * The directory is visible as there is no index file in that directory or some .
   htaccess file with specific rules
 * <<Furthermore, the directory “inc” there is not seen.>>
 * that directory is invisible as there is an .htaccess file there. I have renamed
   the
 * .htaccess
    to htaccess and now you can see the inc directory:
 * /home/soloscom/public_html/wp-content/plugins/rencontre
    ————————-
 * The “inc” folder is visible now.
 * Again, if it is an install issue as you say…what is the solution..?
    I can buy
   another domain and site space and have a duplicate install (something which I
   Was going to do anyway as a backup and also to test things out before loading
   on production).

 * Hi Jacques!
    I posted this, and tried now to chat..and it works!!! 🙂 Seems like
   the issue was this with .htaccess being renamed to htaccess, etc. I don’t know…
   but seems to work now.
 * The translations (for your update) are
 * “Demande de Tchat acceptée. Vous pouvez commencer.”
    “Pedido de Tchat aceptado.
   Puedes empezar”
 * Also, note that it is “Pedido de Chat enviado. Esperar…”
    The word is “enviado”
   not “enviada” [male/female-Pedido is Male]
 * Let’s hope chat keeps working, if I have other issue, will update here.
 * Regards,
    Sanjay
