Did you know? Chattable used to run without a backend. From 2021-2023 Chattable ran fully in client side JS and Firebase, hosted fully on Neocities!

At the current rate of traffic growth, Chattable has calculated that 1 year from now, operation costs will equal >=$15,000,000 per month from Firebase alone. This is not sustainable. Be patient while heavy maintenance is performed between now & the EOY.

If you find yourself unable to access iframe.chat, you might be IP banned for abuse. To contest your ban, email chattable@xobyte.org

Woah!! That's insane! Hope you can find a way to make this sustainable for yourself Andrew. I love Chattable but Id hate for it to become a burden to you.

Wait so are all chattable chats down until end of the year? Or is that because I'm IP banned?

@ phelah, I also cannot access any webpages with Chattable embedded :,)

I don't expect Chattable to go down anytime soon, but new abuse filters have been temporarily added to automatically ban IPs that make too many requests within a short amount of time. This ban is a temporary ban (1hr) but can still be contested

Due to very large spikes in traffic which have been sustained for a few days now , some unusual bugs have introduced themselves. Please be patient while I am looking into this. Read below for a list of known bugs

Chats don't load on first load, this is because the server is reaching a rate limit of 18,000 user token requests per min (1M requests per hour) typically resolves after a reload

Sometimes new messages get rendered twice, root cause unknown but it's suspected to do with additional server strain

I'm taking action on abusive IPs, most of these are bots but if you are a genuine user who is having issues loading Chattable please email Chattable support chattable@xobyte.org

Testing a new way to style your chat in beta now

The dashboard on beta now lets you "Force a Stylesheet" which applies a set CSS file to your chat regardless of where it's embedded or if it's even initialized

Due to the nature of how this works, this feature will only work with CSS files hosted on web servers with CORS enabled. If you don't have CORS enabled, you can continue to style your chat using chattable.initialize()

This feature just left beta

A small update to Chattable to help with new users understanding the dashboard and quality of life updates for everyone's chats

First, the Dashboard no longer shows grayed out buttons when no chat is selected. Fixed a bug on Firefox that gave a 404 error inside the chat preview when no chat is selected.

Second, the settings menu in each chat is now preloaded with your CSS. Meaning you won't ever see the default unstyled settings page if you are using custom CSS

Thirdly, new icons are being tested as a continuation of the UI overhaul

Finally, edited messages now have an extra class added to them to allow you to customize messages that have been edited.

Did you know the beta tester badge is the rarest badge on Chattable? There's only been 2 people to ever carry the badge. Neither of these people carry it anymore, as it's been replaced with the "Chattable Support" badge (ref. ".devTag" in the code) but messages with the old beta tester badge are grandfathered in, and if any such message(s) still exist, they will be the only message(s) that could ever wield this badge

Chat Owners! Managing your moderators has finally gotten easier. Mod names are now logged when you promote a user and are used to identify each moderator on the dashboard.

*existing moderators before this update will not have their names available (it'll show "true" instead of their username) you can demote and promote your mods to update their name.

Chattable is working on a feature that will allow mods & owners to attach objects to automated messages which can render HTML documents and even videos inside messages!

This could be used to add minigames to messages, or attach videos or audio files to messages.

I have a problem with this. Some people might use that feature to embed HTMLs with JS exploits.

Only the chat owner & it's set moderators can send attachments due to this reason.
