      • Pre-chat - see what other side is typing before they hit enter

        there's other chat programs that offer this solution, this is my most desired feature. Before the customer hits enter, we can actually see what they are actually typing so we can have a change to prepare the answer before they hit enter. BEST IDEA EVER.

                      You’re not the only one who’d like to see this! The problem is that it would require Flash in our widget, which we currently avoid. We might do this later, but you can use our API to do it now.

                    • I dont think we should have to pay any extra funds to use the custom CSS

                      the Boxes that are 'default' are not that nice. But to force users to pay additional funds just to customize the boxes is not right. Why not allow users to create custom boxes online so all users could choose better chat boxes and the community could donate their designs for the benefit of all.

                      • Online / Offline Schedules per Operator

                        Hi, Adium doesn't have a facility to allow you to specify times when you are shown as available/offline. It would be great if you could specify per operator what times they can be online.

                        For example... I finish work for the day and leave adium open but forget to sign off from Olark.... The some bloody annoying customer starts pestering me. LOL

                        SO if I could set lark to allow my operator profile to work between say 9am - 5:30pm and days of the week that would be great!!

                            This would be useful for doing reviews.

                                      • allow me to add more operators without tripling my cost

                                        I'm on the gold plan with 4 operators. If I want to add a 5th, it will triple my cost. Lame.

                                        • Customizations per group (styles, greeter messages, attention grabber images, etc.)

                                          This would allow different set of pages (groups) that are already styled differently to have matching Olark boxes.

                                          • Delete/classify/rate specific Transcripts

                                            Would be great to be able to :

                                            - delete a specific transcript to only keep important transcripts.

                                            - rate or classify a transcript to indicate there is a great insight in this conversation and which kind of insight.

                                            thanks !!
