Webpage / Web Interface

URL to a channel won't work if the channel name has characters that need URL encoding.

Example : http://www.mibbit.com/chat/?server=irc.quakenet.org&channel=%23insens%E9

Both Clients

  • On Apple iOS 6+ devices: Mibbit loads but will not connect to channel. Cause: iOS6 began caching AJAX requests. Workaround: use &noWebSocket=true on Mibbit URI. --Tony
  • When kicking/banning someone, if link is at end of the message the last bracket is part of the link causing the link to not work. --Zuwer 22:15, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
  • When a user gets banned from the server (G-Lined, Z-Lined, etc.), the Closing Link (reason why they got banned) is not being shown. --TheCainer 13:40, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
  • If you fill a line up to the max length you can add more with Pastebin, or Minify URL, though only just those URLs. --Havvy 08:44, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
  • PS3 browser doesn’t send return presses to the input box (neither with a wired keyboard or the on-screen keypad), there needs to be a visible button to push to send the message -- Johndrinkwater 21:38, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
  • When pasting a URL, if that URL has parenthesis in it, the URL will stop linking at the parenthesis. This is desirable in almost no cases compared to the opposite behavior, and should be changed. Surgo 16:38, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Main Client

  • Image thumb-nailing: pasting image links fails to show a thumbnail for both the originator and channel recipients --Tony
  • Attempting to add more than one IRC server with the same address silently fails on the "Account" screen. Setting up multiple connections to the same server is needed for bouncers such as ZNC. --Sduensin 04:19, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
  • Sending a video link shows a small preview for all other Client users but not the sender him/herself. --DaveKap 20:24, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
  • Search results (from Home tab) not color of rest of Client Tabs

Widget

  • when the widget is loaded through an IFRAME, there are scrolling problems with Firefox if the frame is hidden and shown again via display:none/block --null0 10/16/2009
  • autoaway value is ignored (debug shows them as loaded correctly). --Hercule 15:32, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
  • Change default charset from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-* dont work. ISO-8859-* is displayed in the manager but it's always UTF-8 (or another) in the widget. --Elianor 00:38, 30 January 2009 (UTC) -> Users can't see special chars, not usefull in non-english channels --Elianor 13:40, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

Manager

  • IE6
    • Logout sometimes doesn't work (no reaction)

Cannot send to channel

I found bug that server is not informing me that my message is not delivered to channel! If user get on canal he didn't know that he's message is not delivered. Is there any hanling of errors about delivering messages? On Other'c clients is working (like irssi or mirc) i get message 'Cannot send to channel' directly on channel. -Villemo 11:31, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

  • This only seems to be the case in the widget. It seems to be caused because most raw-messages are not being shown, while they get printed in the status-screen when you use the main client. There are also other messages that are not being shown this way. This combined with the fact that Mibbit doesn't show the modes of a channel, people have no way of knowing wether their message got delivered or not. --TheCainer 13:39, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Archived items

Timestamps:

  • The time-stamps are only partially obscured in some web browsers. --Wgsilkie 08:19, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
    • Which web browsers, and define 'obscured' Havvy 03:21, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Preferences:

  • If you preform a /msg command, the output won't appear on your own screen. It sends correctly though. Considered a bug, rather then a missing feature. --Jokou 11:28, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
  • Sound not working on Firefox 3.0.4 on Windows 2000 (Hercule), XP, Vista
    • Google's Chrome (0.4.*) also having the same problem. User:Salman -- Fixed in Chrome(1.*)--Jokou 21:55, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
  • Joining a channel at times, fails to happen during initial connection. A /cycle #chan is needed to fix it.
  • Twitter "Auto connect (checked)" only works on "Login" (and manually in account) but not on "open the page" (at least on my slow 14KB/s connection).--Hercule 17:25, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
    • This is more of a bug in which Mibbit doesn't always load tabs properly on slower internet connections. Havvy 03:21, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
  • Sending the /names command causes the client to open every channel on the network. This can obviously bog down and crash a browser on a network like Freenode or OFTC. The appropriate action should be to list out the names of everyone in a channel (whether into the network tab or into the channel tab (preferred)) or to ignore the command. See http://www.new2chat.com/ircmds.html and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Internet_Relay_Chat_commands#NAMES. --Fuzztooth 21:36, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
  • Only getting to see topic line when joining rooms. (on Opera, seems to work fine on Firefox) --Tawarwaith
  • If you reduce height of IE6 window then javascript error appear when chat window reaching no height: image (czech windows) --Rotacak 15:09, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
  • seems like chartset settings not work at all, because if I set it to windows 1250, or UTF8 or any other and then send this text "ěščřžýáíé" in mIRC appear always this same mess "ěščřžýáíé" regardless on selected chartset. Btw, mIRC working with windows 1250. --Rotacak 00:56, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
  • the generated widget link for a preview is broken for server=irc.mibbit.net atm! you need to use http://widget.mibbit.com/?bypassredirect&settings=... for seeing the effect of the changes. --Hercule 15:39, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
  • load skins: results are totally different from Prefs->Skins screenshots. Fonts are not loaded (but Times instead: chat window Topic bar, chat input options etc), chat output-> "Time column" & "Nick column" are not unchecked, bg-images are not loaded etc. --Hercule 15:32, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
    • PrefsWidget preview form, checkboxes: changes don't update the link (only after changing a different checkbox)--Hercule 15:54, 29 November 2008 (UTC), still not working :(

--Hercule 15:48, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

PasteBin:

  • There is no word wrap, so any paragraph (or even sentence) of sufficient length will run out the right side of the table and past the browser's viewable area, requiring you to scroll to the right to keep reading. Surgo 22:39, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
