Limitations
Although the plugin works well on both positions (in the sidebar and at the bottom of a page as a traditional chat box), there have been situations where: a) A theme’s sidebar is thin and the widget is not very aesthetically pleasing. b) When positioned at the bottom, the chat box’s colors may be off. This situation, where one positioning option is better than another, is a rarity – generally, the plugin works well in both positions.
How it works
This plugin links your Firebase application to your Wordpress backend. Once the linking has been done (installation, positioning and inserting configuration data), the widget will appear in posts. Chat (public and private) messages are linked to the current post’s ID – and the conversations can then center around that post and it’s ideas.Intuitive installation and functionality
Installation of the plugin is a straightforward affair: activate the “ChopItUp Live Chat with Firebase” plugin and then go to “ChopItUp Live Chat Settings”. Enter your Firebase application’s settings. That is it, you are done with installation and you and your users/visitors can starting on posts.
What tech do we use?
The plugin itself is very light because the heavy lifting is done by the Firebase backend. The plugin uses a combination of jQuery and traditional javascript to navigate through the tabs – tabs that enable private and public chat. Javascript-enabled input is sanitized to avoid cross-site attacks and malicious injections. A free Firebase account comes with a maximum of 100 concurrent connections – to get more capacity, one would have to go premium. This plugin uses Firebase, DOMPurify and the WordPress API in conjunction with our custom PHP and Javascript. This plugin is VERY light.The thinking behind ChopItUp Live Chat with Firebase
Chat has been a staple of web-based communication since the rise of usage of the internet by the general public in the early 1990s – earlier implementations were naturally a lot cruder, most centering around applets or getting the browser to recognize a new mime type in order to support an external implementation of chat. Browsers nowadays come with incredible capabilities and support out the box and as such, some of the most advanced, light and stable implementations of chat can be done fairly quickly and easily. The rise of cloud services has also lightened the load so that developers can work on creative aspects of products and leave the basic functionality to cloud services. The fact that heavy duty logic happens on the the cloud means that small sites don’t have to deal with the heavy duty stuff dedicated to the cloud. Javascript has become a mature language that is capable of doing things that had long been ascribed to other compiled programming languages – this maturity has given leeway to create better products. Wordpress is now running on 30% of all websites – in a way, it has become a kind of web operating system. This means that it has become unavoidable and thinking about creating new products and dedicated implementations of existing products for WordPress is imperative. The combination of better browsers, cloud, mature Javascript and a web dominated by a very powerful WordPress was fertile soil to create ChopItUp Live Chat with Firebase – a product that we believe is not only extremely utilitarian but timely as well.PLEASE NOTE:
This plugin is designed to work with Firebase – without it, it cannot function.Categories
