It has nothing to do with a WP feature. When S2Member and Quick Chat are installed together Quick Chat has serious performance issues.

In some cases unless the user has “manage options” capability can’t post at all!

I have made an exhaustive test trying to eliminate various different plugins that might be causing problems on the Quick Chat plugin.
So I made a fresh new install of WordPress installing all the modules I had on the aforementioned site, http://phc.odphotography.com

This test site is at : http://test.odphotography.com has Quick Chat, Quick Count, Quick Flag, W3 Total Cache, BuddyPress and some related to BuddyPress plugins.
The only difference is the S2Member plugin that is not installed.
On this site all three(3) Quick plugins work flawlessly!!!
Quick Chat is the beta version 3.50!!!

So the end result is that Quick Chat and S2Member have compatibility issues!!!
Please advice.

Thank you!

I am using W3 Total Cache and I read about some incompatibilities.
So I disabled all caching methods but still no luck.

Then I checked at your code, quick-chat.php under function quick_chat_init() but couldn’t find where the problem might be…

I even included just before the closing bracket of the quick_chat_init() function, this code:

if(is_user_logged_in() && !current_user_can('manage_options') && $quick_chat_ip_blocked == 0) {
    	$quick_chat_no_participation = 0;
    	$quick_chat_must_login = 0;
    	$quick_chat_user_status = 1;
}

but I still get the same result…
Chat area shows up, username is displayed, just sound and scroll are visible(which denotes a non admin user) but previous messages are not displayed and the user can’t post!!!

I did have a quick look on the .js files but I couldn’t find something!!!
