If you're trying to use the 'Live Chat' function here on Chiff and Fipple, we haven't looked at that for many years. I'm pretty sure it's simply defunct. We also haven't got round to figuring out how to remove the words 'Live Chat' and the apparent link from underneath the 'Chiff & Fipple' heading.

Or are you getting that message when just trying to use the Board for the usual, routine reasons? If so, I'm not sure where the problem might be - as far as I know, there has not been an issue with the Board software in the last day or two.

The Live Chat function does work, so don't remove the link. As far as I can make of it though, it looks like it might be on IRC's side and not C&F

I used to use the Live Chat button. Whenever I try it these days, it doesn't work for me. Maybe it works on some browsers and not others. As I say, we haven't really looked at it for years.

Seems to be working for me.

And was there anyone to chat to?

I just saw the main page, and figured everything must be fine on my end. I didn't actually go in; I'd tried it years ago, but chat kind of gives me the creeps and makes me itchy.

[benhall.1]

Well, I have to say, I only get as far as the sign-in page. As soon as I try to get beyond that, it doesn't work. It doesn't work on my laptop, and it doesn't work on my phone. Are you sure you've actually gone in?

[Nanohedron]

Are you sure you've actually gone in?

Well, I said I didn't. I saw the sign-in page, and assumed from that that things must be working. My bad.

Okay - I gave it a real try and it took forever to load, so it timed out. I just gave it another try, and same thing:

This site can’t be reached

http://www.mrbill.net took too long to respond.

Just had a third try, and no change. So that's how it's panning out on my end.

I'm getting different error messages on each attempt, but always an error message. From memory, that's how it's been for years now, at least for me.

The Live Chat function does work, so don't remove the link.

Skyclad01: did you ever get in to the thing proper, and manage to connect with other users? Or did you just get to the sign-in page, as is happening with myself and Nanohedron?

I click on the Live Chat link and it takes me to the sign in page. Then I type in my name and click the connect button and I get to here http://www.mrbill.net/chiffirc/irc.cgi which is normally the chatroom, but that's where I get;

405 Not Allowed
openresty

Now if I take away the /irc.cgi from the end of the URL, I get this;

404 Not Found
openresty

That may be normal though since I took out that bit at the end of the URL.

And if I to to www.mrbill.net, I just get a page that says this;

Which is probably normal im guessing.

Before live chat was brought up herein, I scarcely knew it existed. I gave it a go, purely out of curiousity. After typing in a nickname, I hit the "connect" button. The progress meter fills to ~10%, and that's all I get. Both my Android phone and Amazon Fire tablet produce these results.

Just to update, Live Chat is fixed and working again!
