Recently, chat has not been letting me in, sometimes I get the authentication error, other times it just doesn't load. Could this be the problem as to why chat has been ub0r dead lately?

This morning, this is on the site banner:

• Live Chat Warning: file_get_contents(http://173.244.196.1.../?api.UserCount): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! in /var/www/vhosts/simtropolis.com/httpdocs/forum/admin/applications_addon/ips/ccs/sources/pages.php(416) : eval()'d code on line 5834 0
• ST EXchange
• City Journals
• Omnibus
• Download CitiesXL

The noted links do not appear on the header.

Suggest moving the link for chat to the extreme right of this field.

^^ What he said.

I was also experiencing problemst last night however, about 24 hours ago now I assume, where I would get a "chrome can't load" IP Adress no matter how many times I tried, I got the same error (can't load this site/can't show this site) when trying in IE. So chat seems to be kind of screwed right now.

No doubt its down, i'm sure if it can't get fixed someone will create a temp backup, it usualy happens.

Hope it means more to you than it does to me, Dirk.

Well, from what I've experiencing, the chat is down for more than a day now.I hope this gets fixed soon...

i would suggest adding a little bit of code to stop the error showing. EG/

if(file_exists("http://173.244.196.195:8080/?api.UserCount")) {

$usercount = file_get_contents("http://173.244.196.195:8080/?api.UserCount");

echo "Live Chat (". $usercount .")"; }

else { echo "Live Chat (Offline)"; }

or something along the lines of that (I'm just guessing, been awhile since i've done any PHP work)

There's many of ways to approach the issue, but i'm just suggesting my idea as a aesthetic solution for the home page.

Has been down for 3 days now.
