How does chat work

When customer comes to your site and browse listing, if listing owner is registered (can be online or offline), customer can initiate chat. Listing owner is notified on new message in right bottom corner and conversation is marked as unread. Listing owner can block customer in case of recieving spam or other unwanted messages, however block on user does not apply to existing conversation. When chat is closed and removed, no new chat can be initiated by customer.

User blocking

  • user can block any other user
  • block does not apply on existing conversations
  • block means that no new conversation can be initiated
  • user can block all users that actually disable any chatting

Maintenance - keep your osclass clean

  • to reduce impact of plugin on performance of your server, you need to recycle/remove inactive chats
  • plugin offers ability to remove chats that are not active for XY days. This cleanup is done on daily level using daily cron of osclass (must be functional, not nulled!)

Review by GratisClass on 9. May 2021

4.0 - Very good
I liked it, just a note. The button should also appear in the ad's photo window. This way it would be easier for the customer to see who is connected in the chat. Thanks

Really perfect plugin. In addition, MB theme has moved the conversation bubble to the left because I am a novice and cannot do it on my own! I highly recommend MB theme!

Needs a way to show who is online clearly by Phil on 15. Mar 2020

5.0 - Excellent
The plugin is really good, but unless you click on an ad to see if user is online, you don't know who is online to chat with. Need a way to boldly show who is online now and even show an online status on every ad regardless if where it is seen. This will encourage users to be online and know fast who they can connect with via live chat feature.

chat plug-in. Winner! by James Conklin on 5. May 2018

5.0 - Excellent
Installation was a breeze. I have the osclasspoint messanger and wasn't sure if i needed both but after installing i realize chat can be affective. for improvement I would reduce the size of the active chat link. I looked at the other popular chat option but chose this one because osclasspoint plugin admin pages are great and so far all of their products have been innovative and solid.
