Consultant : I just watched it turn O, now it says, “Let’s meet here again next time!” Consultant : Thought about a new name yet? CrisW : the shorter the better. CrisW : I thought share was fine, until i realized that specific portal would also have the share button under it with the same title! CrisW : so when shared, it will be share -share- plus the webpage title CrisW : so, other titles could be, study, or learn, or live CrisW : or life CrisW : because LIVE – can mean two things (as in LAYV) or (LIV) CrisW : so if we share a page, it would be CLG/life/forum/post-title CrisW : versus CLG/share/forum/general-discussions/ CrisW :CLG/live/forum/general-discussions/ CrisW : CLG/learn/forum/general-discussions/ CrisW : I think “share” is the most applicable or appropriate CrisW : since, there is the /forum/ and the specific forums in the link itself Consultant : So you are doing a completely brand new install? Lot of testing all over again? CrisW : I was thinking about what MOD said – about if we move all the forums to SH, that WHAT IF, someone starts posting there about their own religion CrisW : with all these wokeness going around, of course I will not make the website “open for all” CrisW : Followers have to have some type of online sanctuary where they can go to to LEARN about Jesus and not get pitched any pastors book or to donate to their organization so that they can build more buildings (and add to the pastor’s net worth). Consultant : So it will just be YOU then at this new forum? CrisW : Yes. DBA might join but she’s awfully busy too. CrisW : It’s okay, I can do it. 🙂 Consultant : I can help you. I mean I know MOD Brute and I give you a hard time while testing and putting our thoughts and comments out CrisW : Yes, I know and I do not want you to not be able to speak freely. So you can do all that at SH CrisW : But at CLG, it would be strictly Christ Followers CrisW : I remember Brute also said he can help with checking links and correcting them instead, and I said I will do it. And he said it is LINKS! Lol! CrisW : Anyway, I am still praying about it. I just know that there are things that really need to be PUBLISHED, and I would take full responsibility for it. CrisW : Because if I just type it out and then you guys tell me about your thoughts on it, it’s like gossip. Consultant : Hahaha! CrisW : But if I publish “this has been my personal experience with them” – it’s my own testimony. Consultant : That would be real fun to read! Go Cris! Provide screenshots! CrisW : Of course I will. That’s the only way the enemy wins. When people get victimized, and then the victim speaks, and the victimizer says “they’re lying”. If you create a document that can stand on it’s own, you’re either CrisW : going to help that person repent, or have them hate you more. Either way, Truth wins. Consultant : I bet those people hate you for getting THIS domain to begin with. When I go there, I know there are other people who are more “ban-worthy”, but you? You just post verses there and that’s really the “SIGN” that it’s not a “church” CrisW : It’s okay. There’s other websites like that also talks / writes about them. All I need to do is share a link to those pages, and people can read and decide for themselves. Consultant : How about you just archive ALL the old posts? So you don’t start from scratch? Consultant : On the forum CrisW : I will move them all to SH CrisW : Then I will start from scratch. CrisW : I just have to divvy up my time. (80 hour work week). Right now I have way too many portals I am working on. I am waiting on a project decision, after which I can only put 40 hours on those portals, because the other 40 will be occupied by that health-related project. That’s why I am training you guys, so you can take over Consultant : Cool, so when can we get extra training or if we have questions? CrisW : Ticket System. I prayed about it this morning, so now it’s clear I have to put a Ticket System and Calendar at SH. CrisW : I can finish all that this weekend since I tested everything past 2-3 days. CrisW : But on SH, there’s no free anything, because our payment gateway doesn’t like that. If they want free, they can use contact form. CrisW : But we will give priority to tickets CrisW : As far as the sched is concerned, I will divvy up my time, and will just have appointments between 7pm to 12 mn on available days over at SH. Since the Tech part occupies 7am-7pm Consultant : You still wont collect donations? CrisW : Not at CLG. AGDT and SH has been and will continue to be funding CLG.

Can you log out and we can chat that way to test? Can you put a loooooong username? (because I programmed it to max out and auto cut at 12 characters. Consultant : Ok. I don’t like the recaptcha! 123456789012 : I just clicked the Member Group Chat Link on the Top Menu, then I put 12345678901234567890 Consultant as my name. 123456789012 : CrisW stands for CrisWeird! How’d you do that?!!! CrisW : Pray for God’s help and wisdom! That’s how. 🙂 CrisW : Now I’ll teach you how I can mute you. Just put the “name” to the “banned phrases” … I will put “12345678901234567890” to it. and then see how that works. CrisW : i put it now. type something. Only the “colon” should appear on your name. 123456789012 : Test mute CrisW : LOL! CrisW : Refresh the page. 123456789012 : 123456789012 : 123456789012 : how about now?
: and now?
: Consultant
: hackathon…
: so note to hackers, make sure you refresh the page! LOL!!!! CrisW : Hahaha! That’s why the chat should only be for Forum Members. 🙂 CrisW : And it is ony scheduled when Admins can moderate.
: so my username can be banned but not my messages
: what does an Admin see?
: All the chat messages
: and the usernames too?
: I typed Consultant
: How about the full long banned username .. Consultant CrisW : Okay I am unbanning and removing 123456789012 : Yay! 123456789012 : At least we know the cut off works 123456789012 : at 12 CrisW : The workaround to that is to do the auto refresh to 15 minutes, or if there is someone “disrupting” the prayer session, Just disable the “public chat”. CrisW : So remember the path Dashboard > Settings > Chat > Chat Settings > 1) Require login and 2) Logged-in username CrisW : You can get the IP from the DB, and if someone is a known spammer, hacker, troller, I just usually add them to my core website’s ban list, they cannot even VIEW the page, hence, cannot abuse the forms. 123456789012 : And why are you again considering opening the public chat? CrisW : There was that person BEGGING me to explain more about God, he was at the “brink”. CrisW : And then as I was trying to help, the EVIL “prayer host” muted me. CrisW : So I typed “Thanks for muting me, what a real mature and christian thing to do.” CrisW : I know for a FACT that admins / moderators can see the back end chat messages, even if it doesn’t display on the front end. 123456789012 : Yes, like you don’t know how to customize chat stuff like this one right? CrisW : Yes, then I shared the screenshots to two of my friends whom I know are truly Followers of Christ, just so there’s some type of “other witness” to that. CrisW : The person I was trying to help of course did NOT know that I got muted, as I was trying to help him. 123456789012 : And those people are christians? CrisW : more like pharisees. CrisW : No, that would be an insult to pharisees. pharisees at least know about the bible. They just use “copy paste” blurbs like “This is a community where everyone is welcome”, etc. or “we love you”, you know the usual love bombing that happens in cults. CrisW : name droppers is a more appropriate word. 123456789012 :Sorry you went through that. Again. CrisW : Hey, I’ll make chat private again. Can you copy this again? CrisW : A good and fast exit out of the public chat is to just re-enable the settings again. That way, the “door” to the chat is closed. CrisW : to the public again and only open to Members CrisW : And they can’t change their user name once logged in. CrisW : Copy this please 🙂
Copied. I am back in.

Consultant :Copied. I am back in. Consultant :Also left comment. Consultant :I thought about this… for specific users like the “generics” Con, Mod, DBA, we have Guest also right? That you share with other Cons Mods or DBAs? CrisW : I was just thinking about that too. CrisW :I thought i can create a Guest account with chat access, if they don’t want to “register and be a member” of the share forum. CrisW : HOWEVER, that just brings me back to “simplification” 🙂 CrisW : The chat supposedly, is so that there is a place where Christ Followers can chat with each other without getting pitched anything, and also where they can pray for each other. CrisW :The conference call line is for when there might be a Christ Follower who want to share something with others, like a personal testimony for Christ, so that others may also hear that God is REAL and will always be GOD, not the celebrity pastors salesmen CrisW : It’s so sad when God’s Words and the Scripture is so watered down and twisted and it makes more false converts and misleads many. Consultant : I’ve noticed other Christians too have just written articles and then left comments open. CrisW : The one thing with that though is, the “guest commenters” seem to just submit “feedback” on the article. If the author responds, the commenter won’t even know. That’s why the Forum is useful, since other members of the community can also respond. CrisW : That was why I wanted to do a clean install, with just me as a Member. So at least this would set expectations for the future members that it is a small community. CrisW : I have a whole lot of articles from the Tech Forum that is useful and can be copied over. As far as SEO, I will just make sure to update the article, and put a link, where the article has been moved. Consultant :Yes, big task! But I suggest you keep the Tech Team have access there too. But of course just a suggestion. Consultant : So for those times when you are out on field and someone is abusing tech resources there. CrisW : I’ll put it under maintenance when I am out on field. 🙂 Consultant : Or that too. CrisW : Actually after I noticed the sites got deindexed, it was a blessing in disguise. I can post anything, and put it under maintenance if I want to. Since the VIPs contact me directly on Signal App anyway, Consultant : Ok then. I’ll be on the SH CrisW : OK. Will just continue chatting there. Thanks for helping! Consultant :NP. I’ll copy this too. Last message.

CrisW : Yes, I just fixed it. I am on full page
Consultant : Next Open Session Countdown?
Consultant : I just watched it turn O, now it says, “Let’s meet here again next time!”
Consultant : Thought about a new name yet?
CrisW : the shorter the better.
CrisW : I thought share was fine, until i realized that specific portal would also have the share button under it with the same title!
CrisW : so when shared, it will be share -share- plus the webpage title
CrisW : so, other titles could be, study, or learn, or live
CrisW : or life
CrisW : because LIVE – can mean two things (as in LAYV) or (LIV)
CrisW : so if we share a page, it would be CLG/life/forum/post-title
CrisW : versus CLG/share/forum/general-discussions/
CrisW :CLG/live/forum/general-discussions/
CrisW : CLG/learn/forum/general-discussions/
CrisW : I think “share” is the most applicable or appropriate
