As of April 8, 2026 on Beta, messages and chat room settings are officially stored locally on Chattable's servers. Removing the biggest Firebase dependency in this project. You can read the entire chat history of these chats (up to the last 200 messages) and send & receive new messages. You can also delete & edit existing messages per your permissions in each room.
Most of the dashboard and other chat functions do not work yet, including the emoji table, promoting users, demoting users, kicking users, banning users, creating chats, deleting chats, creating accounts, deleting accounts, adding emojis, removing emojis, adding profanity filters, removing profanity filters, clearing chats, executing commands, and many other features not listed.
I will prioritize certain features as I go through and rewrite each existing feature, but we're at a point that beta allows you to consistently read & send messages at no cost to me, 100% reliably.
replies are working again, whispers are working but don't render in real time (yet) meaning whispered messages sent after page load won't render until the next page load.
omg yes please! i wanted to add chattable on my website so bad but i just recently found out that you we're down due to attacks, i hope those bad people get karma :(

I've started rewriting Chattable 3 days ago. Changes will only affect beta.iframe.chat links until the full rerelease of Chattable

promoting & demoting moderators has been fixed
Most chat features are operational again, working on the dashboard now.
create chat, delete chat, add emojis, delete emojis, lock chat, unlock chat, and clear chat are now working again
Still using Firebase for Auth at the moment, sometimes chats won't load due to login rate limits. Will be fixed once Firebase is fully removed.
