More New Features
UCCN has been working this week to add new features to the website and the network, and there is more to come.
We’re presently polishing a new JavaScript login which will allow for better methods to provide a chat login on your website. You can see an example of this on the front page, and on the Chat Now page. In its generic form it now has a dropdown box containing a dynamic channel list. It will contain any registered channel that isn’t secret or private. It will also show the present number of users in the channel.
Soon to come will be the ability to customise an HTML snippet to include this on your site.
The colors for the Java have been changed to be a little nicer and more original.
On the network front, we have introduced a new statistics server (which helps run the channel list for the above dropdown box), which will allow us to expand the scope of the website’s integration with chat in the future. We’ve also set up an alert system on all of our servers which we are testing, which will send email and SMS alerts to admins if there is a configuration fault on a server. In the future we’ll be able to expand this to alert on other faults that are occuring on the network.
