Doesn't work on Windows 10, Pidgin 2.12.0

[Matias Marchetti]

Hi...Right now this plugins (lastest .dll) doesn't work on Windows 10 and Pidgin 2.12.0...you can set any chat room to "Hide on join" + Auto Join but always it popups when I restart pidgin.

I had a quick test at seems to be working for me. Can you elaborate on your setup?

[Matias Marchetti (rblanca)]

Yes of course...I'm using Windows 10 Pro x64 build 1703...Tested on a fresh pidgin pidgin-2.12.0-offline.exe installer with using only pidgin-hide-chat.dll (v1.0 downloaded from your page) and skypeweb plugin 1.4 (https://github.com/EionRobb/skype4pidgin/releases), you can also test with orthers protocols like Hangouts plugin or Discord...the results are the same.

I made a video if it helps

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qu1qqVE5QE&feature=youtu.be

First I show without the plugin and later with the plugin on (On 49 segs (https://youtu.be/_qu1qqVE5QE?t=49) I'm also tried with plugin ON and "Preferences -> Inerface -> Conversation Window -> Hide New IM conversations" on Never/Always with same results :(

Thanks kgraefe and sorry 4 my bad english...I hope you can fixed or something... it's a very needed plugin when you have multiple room list.

P.S.: On the video when i write on chat window it gives me a URL error but It doesnt be related to this bug.

Forgot to say that I also cleaned all pidgin data from (Program Files\Pidign and %APPDATA%\.purple before reinstall it to do the test on fresh installation.

I tried it on another Notebook (also with Windows 10 Pro x64 build 1703 and pidgin v2.12.0 ..but same results...maeby some depedency was losted/dropped over the time on newest version of pidgin?

[kgraefe (konradgraefe)]

Can you check again with a protocol that is shipped with Pidgin? I used IRC for that (no registration needed).

Can you give me a list of all activated plugins? You can say "/debug plugins" in a chat window to generate this list. (It will be sent to this chat, so use one that does not annoy too much people.) And while you're there, say "/debug version" as well.

Hi dude...sorry for delay...I tried with IRC plugin on freenode and works great!...it seems the problem its on EionRobb's plugins like Hangouts, Discord, SkypeWeb...should I report it to him?

And this is the output that you ask for
Loaded Plugins: AIM, Bonjour, Gadu-Gadu, GroupWise, Hide Chat on Join, ICQ, IRC, NSS, SILC, SIMPLE, SSL, Sametime, Skype (HTTP), XMPP
Using Pidgin v2.12.0 with libpurple v2.12.0.

Thanks!

[kgraefe (konradgraefe)]

Do not report it to EionRobb yet. I will have a deeper look first.

[Matias Marchetti (rblanca)]

Ok, thanks dude!
