Hi I'm sorry if i have somehow missed something.

So i followed all the instructions and added simple-chat.html to my obs as a local file. it pops up and shows everything is verifying, connecting, etc. and it ends with "Connected to Sakura_Yosei"

however once thats done its blank. no mater what i type in chat nothing shows up. i've been going through everything to see if i missed a step but i'm lost.

Open it in a browser, Right Click > Inspect and go to the Console tab, and then type in your chat. Are there errors that appear when you do that

Hi, I was wondering if there's a way to make some sort of "if" thing. Example would be only blocking messages containing certain words if they're from a certain user.

hmmm seems too specific to implement as a general setting

but if you really want that functionality, add in this code to the top of onMessage in the script JS, replacing username and word/phrase accordingly.

JavaScript:
if (
    message.user.username === 'username' &&
    message.text.contains('word/phrase')
  ) {
    return
  }

Hi! I'm sorry but I'm having similar issues to what Sakura had with the chat not showing up on my obs, I downloaded the new update and followed all the instructions, I went into inspect and then console and this is what shows up, neither the test chat messages or regular messages show up Screenshot.PNG

Those errors are expected since you don't have any FFZ emotes or BTTV emotes, and the last one is attempting to get your channel point data but you're not a Twitch affiliate. I did just check your stream and it looks like you got it working?

hi hi!! absolutely loving this chat widget, thank you so much for all your wonderful work!! 🥰

i dipped into the CSS file and found how to reduce the line spacing like i wanted (though this could maybe be made an option in the UI settings going forward?), but longer messages seem to have a reverse indent that i'd personally prefer to get rid of (so that the line with the username is on the same left alignment with the text on the wraparound line(s) below it, i hope that's clear what i mean ;;) I'm only "slap numbers until they change" level in CSS lol, so i didn't see this setting, would you be able to point me in the right direction?

thank you!

oh I guess I never fixed the .user padding when i changed the style

.user has padding: 5px;, change that to padding-right: 5px;

and yea I could set adjustable line height for a future update

Entirely possible that I need to fix that further, someone else mentioned a similar issue with scrolling chat 😔
I have also been having this issue as of today—it was working perfectly yesterday, and I have not changed anything so not sure what the root cause could be. Other than that, this has been a fantastic and very easy to use widget, thanks for making it!

should be fixed with v3.1.0, which you should be able to get from your email receipt

I followed the directions about transferring the settings from v3.0.1 to v.3.1.0 and it does not work anymore. But when I go to v3.0.1, it works perfectly again. Is there a reason this is happening? 😓❓

What does your v3.1.0 folder look like? You might also need to refresh the browser source

Hiya! I don't know if this is the right place to post this or not but I had a suggestion to improve Slime Chat! I've been using it for about a week now and I love it! Currently, messages are only able to be set to disappear after a certain amount of time or a certain amount of messages. I was thinking, is there a way we could have messages disappear after a certain number of lines? I have a chatbot set up through streamer.bot and the automatic messages I have it send can be kind of long. If I have the messages disappear by amount then they usually stack up enough to clip off the browser source. If they were able to be set to disappear based on the number of lines then it wouldn't matter how long messages sent are.
Thanks for reading!
