We have applied an update to make the RPX window for single sign in transparent. Thus allowing it to match with your website better.
RPX now (www.rpxnow.com) allows you to offer alternate signup methods to future members of your website. For more info on Adding Single Sign on to your website please read our knowledge base article.
We have also corrected a problem pointing out that allowed people to post CSS into the shout box on profiles. This problem was corrected. The Member Shout box no longer allows any HTML to be posted when posting a shout.
Please remember, when you report problems to use, you not only help solve an issue you might be experiencing but you help others that use our platform as well. The proper way to report problem is via a support ticket. Support tickets allow us to properly track and resolve issues. Report all bugs in a support ticket.

If you have not heard about Skysa yet, Skysa is a website app bar you can install on any website or blog. Some of the Apps include a Chat Room, Twitter, Facebook Group, Games, Annoucments and more.
On thing that is cool about Skysa is some of their apps are member orientated and require login, such as the Chat or Commenting apps. But, when using the bar on your Spruz powered website if your member is logged in they will be able to use the member related features of the Skysa bar without having to create an account with Skysa as well.
You can add Skysa to your website by going to www.skysa.com. You will notice we have added the Skysa bar to the owners community as well.

Today we have applied a new update that now allows you to add a full chat room to your website. The chat room feature is integrated with your member system for a seamless experience and has a number of other nice features for you and your members to enjoy. Like anything new, there may be bugs, problems and/or glitches. Please report all issues using our bug report support tickets. This completes the addition of our new IM and Chat Features. We will be expanding these systems over time once bugs and usability issues that may occur are identified and fixed. We have a long list of features we would like to add IM and Chat, but things take time.
To add the chat room, enter your website management mode, then click on Site> New page and select Chat Room from the features list.
Fixes and Improvements Applied:
-
The white box bug for IE7 users has been fixed. This corrects and issue where a large white box would appear at the page footer of your website.
-
We have increased the idle timer on the live features like IM and Whos Online Tracking to 10 minutes from 5 minutes. This feature places a user offline if they have not moved their mouse or typed a key after a length of time. This is done to reduce page load since once a user leaves there computer the page still polls for activity. This action is has the highest resource demands on our servers. Our goal over the next few months is to achieve an idle timeout of 30 minutes, as long as performance holds.
-
Fixed the IM and chat room time stamp to reflect the correct time based on the viewers location.
-
An issue has been corrected with Alerts in the Management bar that prevented you from seeing all older alerts, thus preventing you from reading them so they can be flagged as read.
We hope you will enjoy the new chat room, please free free to give us your feedback, so we can see what improvements you and other members would like to see first in the future.
Happy Holidays,
The Spruz Team
