There is an .htaccess file that is featured within the download; which needs to be deleted for the install/upgrade to work.

Thanks Andy! The .htaccess has been removed from the download package to avoid any future issues. Let us know if you ahve further feedback.

Can’t wait for the new app, if you still need people to help test it, I would love to help. I was testing 3.0 but did not get the new one with Skype, can’t wait to use it.

Here is a few thing I wish to see in the final version of the dektop software:
- I would like to initate chat with all customers with one button, or filter (e.g customers who spent 5 minute or more in the website) ( This would be a GREAT feature)
- I would like to know the status (Accepted , Declined ) within the application (I can see that when using the server side URL, but for some reason I can’t do that in the software)
- Being able to chat Right to Left would be great for other languages
- I think Country does not work yet, but I would love to see in the visitor information: Country, City, and if I have chated before or not.
That’s what I got form the testing! Good Luck!

I agree with Qais:
I would like to know the status (Accepted, Declined) within the application (I can see that when using the server side URL, but for some reason I can’t do that in the software)
Should add column for Accepted, Declined in Currently Browsing Site Vistors so I do not have to repeat to invite them.

I can’t wait for the new Stardevelop Beta to come out in production. Great product guys, the best on the market IMO.
Any plans on creating a Windows Mobile version for people with Treo cell phones and other Windows Mobile phones?
May 9th, 2008 at 2:14 AM
A Windows Mobile Version would be absolutely awesome. I would DEFINATELY get it!
May 15th, 2008 at 6:20 AM
I’d look forward too for the WM version, if any plans for it in the future. It would be a great addition.

The version 3.0 Windows application was made available early May (you can now login to the customer area to download this new release) Unfortunately the release was delayed a few extra weeks than originally expected, when this blog entry was posted.
