Hello Wolfhomies!

I'm sure -everyone- has had quite the headache when it comes to flash and Wolfhome. As of today, however, you can enable a flash-free version of the chat! In order to switch to the flash-free version, you will have to edit your sniff information and tick the box that says "no flash".

While this is great news and wipes away your flash woes, please remember that it's a new feature and as such will most likely contain residual bugs or errors. If you come across any of these, please submit a Problem Ticket or post in the Questions for the Administration forum: viewforum.php?f=5

One known bug (that you do not have to report) is that there is a small expandable button at the bottom right of the screen. Not much happens when you click it. We're still not sure what this is, and it only happens to some users, but Underdog is aware of it!

Thank you very much for your patience with the flash issues we have been facing!

yesssssss!
Thank you so much.
I am using a chromebook to access wolfhome, and I always had to accept flash before being able to enter a room.
This new update is amazing, so far nothing to report bug wise :)


edit: I found a glitch haha, The chat will refresh on its own if you have been away from the screen for an extended period of time.
I mean its hella nifty in a sense but who knows :)

about how long?
I wonder if that is purposeful to rid of idles after a certain amount of time (probably not).

Honestly I was away for about half an hour. Kinda got into the movie I was watching.
But the moment I clicked back to the chat, the page refreshed and I was back in the room again.
heck if it does help with idles, that might be nice lol, but I can update you if it does so again :)

i dont think its a glitch, it does for me when i disconnect. if im away for a period of time my computer automatically disconnects me, but when i tab back to wolfhome i see the "disconnected" message very briefly before it auto refreshes the chat (the page itself doesnt reload, just the chat)
i would assume its just a neat new feature of moving away from flash
