The hover text output is dynamically created for accessibility. The part ‘username’ should not be like that. It should display your screen name as you have filled it out in the Skype settings. The status ‘error’ might indicate an issue with reading the remote Skype status server. Do you have a link for me so I can take a look?

If you really want to, you can completely remove any hover text by removing the corresponding tags in the template (choose Custom… and edit it in the Advanced section) but as an alternative, you can choose to clear all Status fields that contain texts (like “error”) that you do not want to be showing.

hi, I just downloaded the plugin, and everything seems fine, just that when I hover the mouse over the ‘my status’ icon, this shows up: call me! ‘username’: my status is error.

How do I get rid of ‘my status is error’?

Thank you!

Ha Arnaud,

Do you have access to error logs on the server or hosting account? If so, I’d be interested to know what errors are listed upon plugin activation. Else, could you switch the plugin on at a certain time, and place a skype button on a page somewhere so I can take a look at the front end of the site where this is happening?

Oh, en op welke PHP versie draait de site?

Hello mate, I got the error below straight after activating the plugin. The site is still accessible and things are working, but there seems to be some conflict so I’ve disabled the plugin again.
Alvast bedankt voor je hulp

Did you get this error on the admin section or the front-end? And after that error, did the plugin work or not? Or was the whole site inaccessible?

I have not seen this happen before but I wonder if it is the heavy Atahualpa theme…

Ok, I see… that is indeed either a delay in the Skype server or due to the cache of your browser… not directly related to Android in particular.

Oh no i didn’t even try that. I meant that I am online on my andoid and that the status on my website said offline. However I now see it is online! Must have been some kind of delay.

Do you mean the button does not open Skype on Android when clicked? It is probably related to the Javascript that is designed by Skype. You might search for / report that issue on the Skype Android forum on http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showforum=303 to see if they are working on it

Love it! Unfortunaltely it doens’t yet seem to work with the Skype andoid app. I think that is a problem with the app not this plugin
