Looks like the code disables Simple Chat for mobile and tablet users.

I am quite interested in providing chat support on all devices (in order to replace a 3rd party chat function with Simple Chat) but I would like to know upfront if this requires a large development effort.

Thus, could someone summarize the technical reason(s) why Simple Chat is not trying to support mobile devices?

Simple chat works great on mobile devices - it just needs to be launched in it's own window - so place a link to:

yoursite.com/chat/mobile

And have it open in a new tab/window - that will get you the mobile version.

Let me know if that helps.

There it is! Okay, let me refine my question now. Why is the chat button not being displayed on mobile devices? The functionality on mobile could be to navigate to the chat URL.

Thanks.

It's part of the menu on mobile devices - you'll see "chat" as a menu option.

If you don't see it, let me know what skin you're using.

Thanks!

@brian - Excellent! I will look go to a standard skin and find it. I am working with Perrie's customized skin so that explains why it does not show up. Looks like a bit of skin freshening is in order. :) Thanks for info.
