Chat Box Keeps Popping Up
Someone messaged me, I didn't respond, just instantly closed the box. Now 4 hours later every time I go to a new page or a new tab, the chat box KEEPS POPPING UP. Chat boxes are always awful and difficult to fully close, is there any way to fix or improve this?

Not sure if this is it?

Re: Chat Box Keeps Popping Up
Yeah that's what I eventually did, but I'd actually like to be able to use chat on all pages. Expected behavior I believe should be that once I close a chat box it's gone. That's not the case. And as soon as I turn chat back on or go to chat room, I'm STILL getting a message pop up.Lori Hamill wrote: ↑2 years ago Not sure if this is it?

Re: Chat Box Keeps Popping Up
I’ve had this problem before too. And then I think I’ve finally got rid of the window and it will randomly pop up 4 months later. Clearing cache and cookies doesn’t always work but sometimes it seems to.

Re: Chat Box Keeps Popping Up
I did a quick test. I enabled "Access the SIM Chatroom from all pages". I had someone send me a private chat message. It popped a message box. I went to other pages and the message box remained (as it should). If I click the down arrow in the title bar of the chat window, it minimizes and makes a small bar toward the bottom of the browser window. If I leave the sim and come back, it is still there. If I click on the bar, the chat window comes back.
If I click the X in the title bar of the chat window, it closes the window and it doesn't come back. Please experiment and see if your experience is different.

I've experimented with this quite a bit. I still often get a chat box returning even after clicking X. This is a constant source of annoyance.

Admin - I emailed the Steward over a screen capture video demonstrating this, she's going to forward it to you.
